Reviews SummaryThe redesigned 2021 Buick Envision is the start of a new generation, but it doesn’t look or drive like it’s a complete re-do. The Envision, especially its new Avenir top trim, offers plenty to like that makes it more competitive with the rest of the premium compact SUV set. | |
Reviews SummaryCadillac has rarely lived up to its expectations in the last 40 years or so, but the Lyriq is just one example that shows that the brand is finally rising to its historic standards. It starts with its beautiful cabin that boasts distinctive design and high-quality materials. It’s also very spacious and functional thanks to clever storage and user-friendly tech. The Lyriq’s EV credentials are also solid, if unremarkable, when compared to recently introduced competitors. Verdict: The Lyriq had a bit of a rocky start because earlier model years were plagued with tech issues and build-quality problems, but this latest 2027 test vehicle had none of those. It remains a must-drive luxury EV despite those recently introduced competitors boasting impressive specs and new technologies. | |
