Reviews SummaryYou either join the MINI camp or shake your head “no.” There has never been a middle ground with a MINI. That’s the point—to drive a fun-looking, fun-to-drive small car that’s unlike anything else in the neighborhood. For 2023, the MINI Cooper offers a limited-run Resolute Edition and a few new paint colors. We tested a two-door Hardtop John Cooper Works (JCW) while participating in a rally with more than 700 MINI owners. Maybe next time you’ll join them with your new MINI. | |
Reviews SummarySince the Toyota Corolla first debuted in the U.S. in 1968, it has gone on to become the number one selling vehicle of all time. Over the decades, the Corolla has stayed true to its original formula of delivering a reliable and economical vehicle for the masses. With the introduction of the Corolla Hybrid in 2020, that formula is even more relevant. | |
