A FIRST DRIVE FOR THE 2027 VOLKSWAGEN ATLAS!

The 2027 edition of the family friendly Atlas gets new styling, new technology and an upgraded power plant. Bumper2Bumpertv has a look at how the package comes together after a first drive of the SUV in Huntsville Alabama.

CAN A LUXURY SUV ACTUALLY HANDLE THE OFF ROAD WORLD?

While there are several luxury auto brands that sell large SUV’s only a few are ready for trails and journeys into the woods, mountains or other less than perfect situations. @Bumper2Bumpertv checked out how the Lexus GX550 equates itself on and off the pavement.

SMALL ENOUGH TO HANDLE, STRONG ENOUGH TO DO THE JOB.

When the Ford brand revived the Ranger light duty truck it came back with some extra muscles. @Bumper2Bumpertv sees it as an alternative to larger half ton trucks with enough torque and payload capability to earn respect.

SO YOU WANT LUXURY AND DECENT FUEL ECONOMY?

With the market flooded with small, medium and large SUV’s the Lincoln brand thinks it has developed a vehicle that offer both luxury and economy. @Bumper2Bumpertv looks at one of the company’s vehicles, built in China, that answers that particular need.

ONE BRAND THAT IS MOVING FORWARD WITH EV TECHNOLOGY.

While some automakers are scaling back their investment and support of battery electric vehicles Subaru is moving in the other direction. An example is the Trailseeker, a crossover that left an impression with Bumper2Bumpertv.

FUNCTIONAL TRANSPORTATION WITH UPSCALE FEATURES.

One of the few vehicle types that have survived over the last three decades is the minivan. Bumper2Bumpertv has a look at how Toyota’s entry in the segment has evolved with technology and creature comforts.

CONTINUING TO MOVE UPSCALE.

Mazda is a brand that doesn’t make major changes without a reason or a long term plan. As Bumper2Bumpertv tells us the company is now opting to make subtle changes to keep up with competitors and add some panache to their vehicles.
