Battery-electric vehicles come in all shapes and sizes, from well-priced daily drivers to extravagant performance vehicles.

Is Hyundai making the best EV on the market? After a week behind the wheel of the 2023 IONIQ 6, they jumped to the top of our list. We drove the IONIQ 6 Limited AWD model with a long-range battery pack. This configuration provides the best combination of performance, range, and features. Long live the sedan!

Driven: 2023 Nissan GT-R

Driven: 2023 Nissan GT-R

The current-generation Nissan GT-R (R35) has been around for quite some time now, but it’s still a fantastic sports car. The 2023 GT-R is as fun to drive and attention-grabbing as ever. Other vehicles may have surpassed the GT-R’s specs and tech, but Godzilla can still hold its own in a straight line or a curve and makes anyone look like a pro driver.

Driven: 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Summit Reserve

Driven: 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Summit Reserve

Jeep’s venerable Grand Cherokee SUV is at its best in its most luxurious version: the Summit Reserve. The extended-wheelbase model we tested features a beautifully refined interior with room for six passengers, top-grade materials, the latest technology, and a fantastic sound system. Plus, it’s still, at heart, an off-road capable Jeep.

Driven: 2023 BMW 760i xDrive

Our pal Tim Esterdahl from Pickup Truck and SUV Talk got his hands on a vehicle that is neither a truck nor an SUV. The 2023 BMW 760i xDrive he reviewed is a $162,000 luxury sedan with a 536 hp, twin-turbo V8, a 48V motor, and a heaping helping of technology. Zoom from 0-to-60 in 4.1 seconds, or relax in the executive lounge seating while watching the 31″ 8K TV.

Driven: 2023 Lexus GX 460

With the reveal of the new 2024 Lexus GX 550, we figured there was no better time to take one final ride in the outgoing model, the GX 460. We spent a week living with this 2023 GX 460 Black Line special edition, slathered in beautiful Nori Green Pearl paint. Our conclusion: Lexus’ rugged and capable SUV leaves some big shoes to fill for the next-gen GX.

Driven: 2023 Kia Sportage Hybrid SX-Prestige

The top-of-the-line Kia Sportage Hybrid offers a bold, modern design and a zippy little turbocharged engine and motor combo. It’s a fun and functional crossover with plenty of personality and looks especially slick in a Shadow Matte Gray finish, rolling on 18″ dark grey alloy wheels.

Testing the Hammer Fist

Testing the Hammer Fist

The makers of the Hammer Fist claim the compact multitool can drive nails, despite being about the size of a set of brass knuckles. LRN2DIY put the tool to the test to see if it works as well as they say. The big difference between the Hammer Fist and a conventional hammer is that it relies more on your strength than the kinetic energy of a swinging handle.

Driven: 2023 Nissan Armada Platinum

The Nissan Armada has been the Japanese automaker’s largest SUV for 20 years. We hadn’t spent time in one in a while and recently had the opportunity to live with the 2023 Armada for a week. Does the upscale Platinum model have what it takes to keep up in today’s crowded 3-row SUV market?

It features a luxurious and quiet cabin, a confident and refined ride, and lots of modern tech.

Driven: 2023 Cadillac Escalade-V

Loaded with luxury, the Cadillac Escalade is one extravagant SUV. But the Escalade-V is on a different level entirely, adding a powerful supercharged V8, a sport-tuned adaptive suspension, performance brakes, and much more. We spent a week living with Caddy’s powerful full-size SUV and couldn’t get enough of its many pleasures.

Videogamedunkey offers his honest take on the game, its level design and control quirks, visual glitches, and occasional moments of actual fun.

Driven: 2022 Toyota GR Supra 2.0

Driven: 2022 Toyota GR Supra 2.0

We’ve driven the Toyota GR Supra a few times, and it’s great fun. But we’d only driven the more powerful and expensive 3.0-liter model to date. Now, we’ve had the chance to spend some time with the 2.0-liter sports coupe, and we were impressed with just how great it is to drive while saving cash and sipping less fuel.

Driven: 2022 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Autobahn

Driven: 2022 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Autobahn

The 2022 Volkswagen Jetta GLI has a sharp new look compared to earlier Mk7 Jettas, but it’s largely unchanged mechanically. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. The GLI Autobahn combines sporty styling inside and out with a zesty turbocharged engine, premium wheels, an adaptive suspension, and other upgrades.

Driven: 2022 Hyundai Elantra N

Driven: 2022 Hyundai Elantra N

If you had told us ten years ago that a Hyundai Elantra would make a great sports car, we would called you crazy. But here we are in 2022, and the Elantra N is one our favorite cars of the year. The compact sedan has a great, energetic drivetrain, crisp handling, an awesome exhaust note, and an available manual transmission.

2022 Toyota GR86: Things We Love

2022 Toyota GR86: Things We Love

Last year, we had a chance to drive the new Toyota GR86 on a racetrack. Now, we’ve had a full week to live with the agile and accessibly-priced sports car as our daily driver for a full week. The good news: The GR86 is nearly as much fun on the street as it is on a race circuit. Here’s what we love about it.

Genesis continues to impress us with every one of its vehicles. The 2022 GV70 knocked our socks off with its deft balance of luxury, performance, vehicle dynamics, and technology. Even with the smaller of two engines, the GV70 is smooth, quick, and more than capable of keeping up with European luxury cars.
