Whether you are buying your first car or you already own several, you must have wondered at least once why we have to make these purchases at a dealership. After all, there should be other options, right? Take a TV for instance – you can buy one at a retail location, online or directly from the manufacturer, even if it costs $20,000. Yet when it comes to new cars, only a dealership would sell you one. Read More

2014 Mercedes-Benz ML350 vs 2015 Mercedes-Benz ML400: Choose the Right Crossover
Posted by Taras Trofimov | Features, Opinion | No CommentsThe best way to look at Mercedes-Benz’s classes is by examining them as vehicle subsets as opposed to single models with different trim levels. Why? Because each vehicle in a class can be separated into trims of its own. For instance, the E550 in the E-Class can be configured as either a 4MATIC Sedan, Cabriolet or Coupe, while the G63 in the G-Class can be either a regular G63 or G63 AMG SUV. That’s why comparing vehicles within a class makes a lot of sense. Read More
Buying a new car is expensive and car features, especially those you don’t need, can really take a big bite out of your budget. I’d hate to bum you out, but let’s not forget all the other payments you need to account for, such as insurance, fuel and repairs. When you break it down, features and accessories should be slotted in the “nice-to-have” category. Read More
2014 Volkswagen Tiguan vs 2015 Audi Q3: Get the Right Crossover
Posted by Taras Trofimov | Features, Opinion | No CommentsCompact crossovers are some of the most popular vehicles among modern families. They are comfortable, spacious and stylish, which makes them much more attractive than minivans and less rugged than standard SUVs. So, when faced with a choice between two excellent luxury crossovers, like the Volkswagen Tiguan and Audi Q3, you may feel reasonably overwhelmed. Read More
How to Choose the Right Crossover for Your Family
Posted by Elliot Chan | Features, Other | No CommentsChoosing the right family crossover from a whole list of them can be a tough ordeal indeed; after all, it’s meant to carry your most valuable cargo. The good news is that with the right knowledge, you can prevail.
The term “crossover” is actually quite broad since it can be associated with tall wagons, sedans or even certain minivans. However, more often than not it refers to a special breed of sport-utility vehicles (SUVs). You can look at crossovers in two ways: 1) as an upgrade from a sedan or wagon 2) or as a more reserved full-size SUV. Read More
The 2015 Detroit Auto Show officially kicked off on January 12 and now all the newest vehicles are out in the open, which can mean only one thing: it’s time to pick our favourites. From stunning supercars to advanced autonomous vehicles – the event gave us everything we could possibly hope for, making it very tough for us to choose the so-called “highlights.” That said, thanks to such a wide variety of vehicles on display and the recent drop in fuel prices, we feel good about 2015, which is refreshing given how uneven 2014 was by comparison.
But enough about that, and let’s take look at some of our favourite vehicle reveals: Read More
2014 Lexus IS 250 vs 2015 Audi A3: What’s Right for You?
Posted by Taras Trofimov | Features, Opinion | No CommentsPitting two luxury brands against each other feels like forcing two celebrities to arm-wrestle, which means that no matter who wins, we’ll feel bad for the other side. All right, maybe we don’t really feel bad for celebrities at all (especially bad celebrities), but choosing between two phenomenal vehicle brands isn’t exactly easy. In this comparison, the 2014 Lexus IS 250 gets to compete against the brand-spanking-new Audi A3, which the German automaker introduced for this year.
If you’re like us, then you’re probably pulling your hair out in an attempt to decide which one is better. So, let’s compare the two and see which one wins: Read More
New Mercedes-Benz GLK Refuses to Change, But That Hardly Matters
Posted by Taras Trofimov | Features, Opinion | No CommentsOur review score: 9.5 / 10
The 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class may be the exact same vehicle as its predecessor, but with such a terrific selection of powertrains and unprecedented interior comfort, it’s almost impossible to dislike it.
Mercedes has redesigned the GLK-Class recently and just last year endowed it with a very efficient diesel four-cylinder engine. This means that the German company had absolutely no reason to revamp this compact, five-passenger crossover for 2015. So, if you already own the 2014 model and for some strange reason you are inkling to switch to the newest version, don’t – because they are nearly identical. Read More
