The 2020 Nissan Kicks SR might just be the best value car on the market. Full review up now.

We spent some time this morning with the redesigned 2021 Nissan Rogue.

Initial impressions are positive; interior materials are very nice and the infotainment is vastly improved. Powertrain remains mostly unchanged, unfortunately (2.5 inline-four and CVT) but the latest Nissan CVT is well calibrated.

More thoughts to follow on next week’s episode of the DoubleClutch.ca Podcast!

We’re doing a 1,000km highway mileage challenge

We’re doing a 1,000km highway mileage challenge this week in the opposite of an EV. This is a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado with the new DIESEL inline six-cylinder engine.

First impressions are that this is an impeccably smooth machine, with refinement that surpasses the other light duty diesels in the segment. The Ram’s EcoDiesel has better noise isolation but the Chevy is more buttery in its power delivery. The interior isn’t quite as nice as the Ram’s, but has better space efficiency than the current F-150.

The Nissan Sentra just went from the worst thing in its segment to one of the best, in one model year. This new 2020 example is wonderful, and this is how CVTs should be done.

The redesigned GLS 580 from Mercedes-Benz offers a plethora of technology, a scrumptious interior and a buttery smooth powertrain. The only drawbacks right now are a lack of presence when compared to its predecessor, and ride quality that isn’t quite as sorted as its two major rivals. All in all, a decent entry and one that’ll surely sell well. Full review coming soon!

If you don’t *need* the full-on AMG 63, the Mercedes-AMG GLC 43 is the perfect hauler for the growing family. Twin-turbocharged V6, sharp looks, and the best ride quality in the segment. Oh yeah, and buy the SUV pictured here and not the Coupé.

Here’s the updated 2020 Nissan Titan Pro-4X Luxury. This year marks a bunch of updates including a new nine-speed transmission and a host of visual changes. It’s a good truck that delivered impressive fuel economy, and has decent road manners. Interior finishings need improvement, and the infotainment still looks like it’s out of 2010.
