It’s 2021 Cadillac Escalade not 2020 | Design and Specs
According to reliable sources, the next-gen Cadillac Escalade won’t be arriving in 2019. The range-topping model was first spied on December last year, and was expected to hit dealerships as a 2020 model. However, the SUV will only debut as 2021 model. It seems that GM wants a fresh start for the Cadillac range starting next decade. Most of their models will be upgraded in 2020 and the rest will probably be discontinued. Last we checked, there were no production delays keeping the new SUV back. 2021 Cadillac Escalade- What we’ve seen so far The first spy pictures of the 2021 Escalade were heavily camouflaged and it was hard to…

2021 Ford F150 spied for the first time! Changes
The next generation Ford F150 has been spied for the first time. It is expected to release late next year, as a 2021 model. The truck is wrapped in an unprecedented amount of camouflage, which either means that this is a very early prototype or has some kind of drastic change in design. We are going by the former, as for the most part, this one looks like the current model. It will not be completely devoid of changes though, and we expect a new front fascia, better bed and upgraded interior. 2021 Ford F150 spied- What’s revealed This particular model is riding on larger wheels (22”) and could be…

Rivian, Ford and Amazon! What’s up?
Rivian is big, way big! Bigger than we ever thought a company with zero cars in their production line could be. After attracting a 700 million investment from Amazon, they are getting additional $500 investment from market giant Ford. They were initially in talks with GM but that fizzled out, mostly for the better. Ford is unarguably the top dog in the truck segment and getting them on board is only going to raise confidence- both from stakeholders and consumers. Unofficial valuations put Rivian at $5-7 billion dollars- a number that is only expected to grow. Rivian- Everyone’s talking about them! Rivian is a Michigan-based electric mobility brand which burst…

Ford Escape 2020 // HYBRID | Price & Release
It’s no secret that Ford is pushing for more ‘utility’ options in their portfolio, especially after State-wide fall in demand for conventional cars. This is a sensible move too, as unlike in Europe, the Blue Oval couldn’t quite make a mark in the US small car and sedan spaces. Not bringing the Focus, or its ‘Active’ variant here, is proof. Future portfolios will then be restricted to Crossovers, Sportscars and the occasional Supercars. Ford’s immediate course? Update their portfolio with this beauty- the 2020 Escape. Ford Escape 2020 design and competition The 2020 Ford Escape has worthy rivals in the Toyota RAV-4, Honda CR-V and the Subaru Forester, and the…

Ford F150 Electric & Hybrid in works | Release date
In the wake of increased competition, especially from ‘unconventional’ source, Ford is slowly cozying up to electrification on their trucks. Can’t really blame them- Tesla is on a roll and they will eventually bring out a pickup truck. Even smaller manufacturers like Rivian are jumping in to the lucrative segment. The F150 is and should to be the top-dog in the segment for a few more years but seepage of customer can only be prevented if they have wider portfolio . This is in addition to the competition from conventional rivals like Chevy and RAM, the latter bringing out a 1000 lb-ft RAM HD recently. This doesn’t mean that Ford…

2020 Ford Explorer ST & Hybrid | Price, Release & More
Ford revealed their 2020 Explorer earlier this month but in keeping with tradition; they have left two of the more interesting variants for Detroit. The Explore ST and Explorer Hybrid are unique additions to the SUV’s 6th generation. The former banks on its superior visual and technical upgrades, while the latter (almost indistinguishable from its base model) will attract MPG conscious ‘3-row’ crossover buyers. Ford Explorer ST While we had our reservations about the base model’s design, the Explorer ST goes extra miles to address them. It will replace the current ‘Sport’ model- as was the case with all of Ford’s newer vehicles. 2020 Explorer vs 2019 Explorer This top-of-the-line…
