2017 Volkswagen Touareg V6 Sport Review By John Heilig
Sep 17, 2017
First, let’s talk power. A 3.6-liter V6 rated at 280 horsepower drives the wheels through an 8-speed automatic transmission with Tiptronic (sequential manual shift).

2017 Toyota Prius Prime Plug-In Review By Larry Nutson
Sep 17, 2017
Yes the Prius Prime is a hybrid, so range anxiety is not really an issue.

I reside in Chicago and could drive in EV-mode all the t ... Continue reading

2017 Toyota Highlander LE Hybrid AWD Review By John Heilig
Sep 12, 2017
Highlander’s quiet operation is almost eerie. Yes, our tester was a hybrid, but we felt as if it was in full electric mode all the time. Yet there is no lack of power.
