Can We Make It to O’Hare Airport Hands-Free in the Cadillac CT6? — Cars.com


Google Maps is currently telling me it’s going to take 25 minutes to get toO’Hare Airport from our downtown Chicago studio now it could easily be doublethat in peak commuting traffic and that is just an awful drive okay like theyhave an answer for that though with this hands-free super cruise it’s an adaptivecruise control system that on highways and interstates lets you go hands-freenow we’re gonna put that to the test on ninety eight ninety four from Chicago toO’Hare Airport and see if we can go the distance hands-free so as we get ontothe expressway activating super cruise is not as easy as it could be there’s alittle gray light that pops up in the dashboard or in the instrument clusterand the car has to be on the center line of the road for that to appear it’s notalways easy to see the little gray icon because the steering wheel might evenblock it depending on your driving position it would have been very nice tohave that in the head-up display of the ct6 but it’s not the case it takes alittle work to identify when super cruise is ready and so now we’re on theexpressway and we are going to wait for it to pop up and let’s get this show onthe road all right super cruise is active and we’re good we are hands-freethe steering wheel has illuminated and it’s green little light so it is tellingme that super cruise is active and I am gonna turn the adaptive cruisecontrol up to 65 miles an hour and we’re goldenso at mile marker 1. 1 we’ve started super cruise so let’s see how far we canget what super cruise does exceptionally well is it holds its position in thelane better than other systems at least in my experience on these roads it holdsthat center position in the road better than Tesla’s autopilot and Volvo’s pilotassist the big downside is it only works on certain roads on those pre-programmedpre scanned roads it’s not going to work on a two-lane highway without a centerdivider or one of the other many many thousands of miles of roads that aren’tprogrammed into the super cruiser system that’s unlike Tesla’s autopilot orVolvo’s pilot assist that will work on almost any road as long as there arelane markings and the cameras can read where the car is but this is certainlyan impressive system when it does work one of the ways that super cruise allowspeople to go hands-free and for them to actually recommend it is it uses adriver facing infrared camera and it’s looking at head position who superCruise has been disengaged so the red light on the steering wheelstarted barking at me saying supercruise is going to and disengage so I am goingto reactivate super curse and again I try to reactivate it and it tells meit’s going to disengage now I’ve lost the super cruise icon all together I amgonna try and change lanes so I can use the turn signal to change lanes it kindof thinks about it while you’re changing lanes and then when you’re back in thelane it reactivates super curse it doesn’t work like Tesla’s autopilotwhere you flip the turn signal and it will change lanes automatically we arecoming up to a split in the highway where 94 goes north and 90 goes west I’mcurious to see how it’s gonna handle if it’s gonna keep me in the lane to go to90 west out toward the airport or if it’s gonna disengageas you can see supercruise does a pretty good job of moving with the roadcurvature so it is steering on this slightly curvy highway there is a pointthough where there can be too much steering angle in it will turn itselfoff so the warning systems first if it senses you’re not paying attention thelittle green light will start flashing at you you know hey pay attention if itgoes a little further it will say it’ll start flashing red and it’s like okaywhat’s going on here we’re gonna turn this off and you thinkabout what you did wrong and then the last alert is all right party’s overthat’s it it will turn it off it’ll have an audible voice saying please payattention and then it will automatically slow the car down to a stop and if youstill haven’t responded it will call on stars emergency services okay so we’reapproaching the interchange here we’re 90 west and 94 West split and it turneditself off and a trucks trying to kill mecoolso yeah it disengaged and now there’s no supercruise icon so we’re gonna splitoff on 290 West here and hopefully let’s seeall right super pers is backand it’s off and we’re back on supercruise is engaged hands are off thesteering wheel we are paying attention still it feels very natural like a humanis driving there’s not a lot of jerky moments and it doesn’t ping-pong betweenthe lanes either like some other systems it does a really good job even whenwe’re next to a truck where it wants to suck you in or in heavy winds it’scorrecting very well in keeping the car on the center of the road so we’recruising about 65 miles an hour now we’re coming to traffic slowed down sowe will see if it keeps it active during this slow period too and yeah if we’rechugging along at 16 miles an hour supercruise still active no hand onsteering wheel requirement this is pretty nice if you had to do thiscommute often this would be a great system this also really makes on cameradialogue easier because I talk with my hands we made it to O’Hare not totallyhands-free but some of that was by design where the highway split but whenit is working it works really well it’s one of the better next-level adaptivecruise controls out there with just how well it centers the car in its lane andhow smooth and comfortable it makes you feel when the feature is active two ofits biggest snacks though are that it only works on certain highways and ifyou don’t live around them then what’s the point and – right now it’s onlyavailable on the CT 6a sedan that we’re not especially enamored with but ifyou’re looking at the CT six and you’ll live where there are roads wheresupercruise works then it’s a no brainer you got to get ityouyou

2019 Subaru Forester: First Look – Cars.com


compact SUVs are all the rage right now and Subaru looks to capitalize on thatwith the redesign of its Forester a vehicle that changes a little bit on theoutside but a lot on the inside now if one of these drove by you quickly itmight be easy to mistaken it for the previous generation of the Forester sosimilarly shaped very tall headlights here the grille still a six sided unitkind of sits in front and center here lots of cladding down low and it kind ofsnakes around the entire vehicle but it’s a functional appearance eight pointseven inches of ground clearance Subaru says on this generation of the Foresterthat’s still an inch or two more than many small SUVs big changes on theinside of the forest or really improved materials quality I got to say in thiscar at the Auto Show versus the previous generation which was really hit and misslots of soft stuff with your arms and your elbows and your knees land there’snice detailing here with this sort of metal trim here that divides kind of theupper and lower portions of the dashboard some of this sort ofwraparound stitching here very good attention to detail still lots ofeasy-to-use controls nice storage spaces and excellent visibility now that was ahallmark of the previous generation Foresterappears to still be the case here look behind you I mean there’s just a nicebig rear window big rear quarter windows Subaru who didn’t mess with a good thingnow wheelbase is up more than an inch in the redesign which helps add an inch anda half to rear legroom in the new forester legroom in the old Forester wasfine this is just a ton now I’m 6 feet tall that’s where I’d sit to drive asyou can see lots of room left over a nice high seating position relativelyspeaking and not too bad Headroom left over so just a comfortable place backhere for adults now cargo room up a little bit versus the previousgeneration but Subaru says that actually the width of the opening at the liftgate on this forester up 5. 3 inches versus before that makes it one of thewidest cargo openings in the segment so go to Home Depot and have at itall-wheel-drive will of course be standard and so now for this redesignwill Subarus package of driver assistance features called eyesightincluding the must-have automatic emergency braking the previousgenerations turbocharged four-cylinder option though no longer available thatleaves one engine a 2. 5 liter boxer four-cylinder that’ll go in everyforester stay tuned we should have driving impressions foryou closer to its date later in 2018you

2018 Hyundai Kona: First Drive — Cars.com


small crossovers and suv’s are all the rage these days everybody’s buying oneand they’re buying them more and more every single minute hyundai does notwant to be left out of that party which is why they’ve brought us this this isthe new 2018 hyundai kona and while the name may make you think of volcanicislands and tropical breezes and beautiful Hawaiian beaches franklythat’s not what we have here today we are in Detroit on Belle Isle and asbeaches go this is pretty much what we’ve got however we also have this toplay with a fantastic new crossover from Hyundai so what makes this thing sospecial I’m not sure it’s the styling that makes it special because we’vecriticized the Kona in the past for kind of looking like a mishmash of everyother crossover on the market put together let me check this out these arenot the headlights these are the daytime running lights they’re LED and they’restandard the actual headlights are down here they’re in the bumper and if thatlooks like the last generation Jeep Cherokee to you well frankly it lookslike that to me too the grille is wider and is meant toevoke Hyundai steel making processes it meant to look like an urn where youmelting the steel and pouring it into something else and if you’re a fan ofblack plastic cladding while they’ve got it here – it’s all down the front it’son the fenders it’s on the back fender sits on the back bumper it’s meant tomake the thing look a little bit more rugged meant to look like some kind of amachine where you can see the bones of the machine instead of just the actualexterior and if you’re a fan of compact dimensions well check this out it’salmost a foot shorter than the Hyundai Tucson so it’ll fit just about anywhereyou want to put it depending which model you get you get a choice of wheel sizesbase wheels are 17 inch but this one has 18 inch wheels which come as you risethrough the various trim levels now the paint on this one is a special for 2018called lime twist optional is a contrasting roof either black or greyobviously this one doesn’t have it if you like this color however you’re goingto want to get an 18 because in 2019 this becomes bright orange so there area couple of things we should talk about inside the kona and the first is thisyou push this button and it automatically locks the all-wheel drivein a 50/50 torque split normally the all-wheel drive operates only the frontwheels and it activates rear wheels as needed if it detects anykind of slippage but if you think you can do better than the system detectingwhen you need to have that kind of torque you push that button 50% of thefront 50% of the rear sometimes it’ll help you get out of a slippery situationout on the street I’m actually really quite surprised at how well the kkonadrives it feels like a much larger vehicle than it actually is and that’snot to say that it’s got a larger footprint anything like that because itcertainly doesn’t it is a very small SUV and it feels like a small SUV but theride and handling of it make it feel like a larger vehicle the rideespecially is really quite well damped the handling itself it’s still a tallvehicle and it is a bit more tippy than say something like a Veloster or anElantra but in terms of overall ride quality even with these 18-inch wheelsit’s really not that bad until you get to some seriously broken pavement andthen you may have wished that you’ve gotten the 17-inch wheels instead withthe larger sidewall tires but overall it has a sophistication that we’re startingto find in a number of Hyundai vehicles that hasn’t been there before part ofthe reason I think for the better ride and handling in this vehicle at least isthe multi-link rear suspension base Kona’s only get a torsion beam rearsuspension was a little less sophisticated but when you get theall-wheel drive option you get a multi-link rear suspension as well soyou have a fully independent suspension front and rear and that definitely doeshelp things out in terms of dynamics underhood you’ve got a choice of twoengines if you get the base models you get a two-liter four-cylinder enginemaking 147 horsepower which it’s not a whole lot if you upgrade to all-wheeldrive you can get the 1. 6 liter turbocharged engine now it’s making ahundred and seventy five horsepower but it makes 195 pound-feet of torque and itreally does help the conus scoot around town with no problem whatsoever you geta choice of two transmissions in the Kona and it depends on which enginechoice you’ve specified the base 2-liter engine with the front-wheel drive comeswith a six-speed Automatic transmission but if you upgrade to the 1. 6 literturbo engine you get a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission thoseare the same power trains that you find in the Hyundai Veloster but the turboengine in the Kona is detuned a little bit it only makes 175 horsepower insteadof 201 that we see in other applications but it’s still making 195 pound-feet oftorque and that means that the code of scoots around town with really noproblem at all acceleration is brisk it really feels strong and the 7-speeddual-clutch transmission snaps off shifts pretty much imperceptibly theonly issue I have with the dual clutch transmission is that when you’reshifting you can say from park to drive or from the reverse to drive it doestake a half a second before it actually gets into that gear so you have to kindof let it do its thing before it’s ready to actually send you on your way onearea that sets the Kona apart from a number of its competitors in the classis the amount of safety equipment that is both standard and optional now for2018 things like forward collision warning and automatic emergency brakingare optional you can only get them on the higher trim levels but they’ve toldus that if you wait for the 2019 model all of those items become standard evenon the base model so they’re going to be a slight price increase for 2019 butyou’ll be able to get things like the forwardand the automatic emergency braking on a base-model instead of having to springover $25,000 for a higher trim level and for us it might be worth the wait thisis not the quietest interior that I’ve experienced in the crossover there issome wind noise around the top of the windshield and you’re getting goodamount of road noise through these 18-inch wheels and tires but overallit’s still a pleasant experience the seats are very comfortable franklythey’re supportive and if you’re driving an ultimate trim like this one you havea power 8 way adjustable driver’s seat with lumbar support as well sitting inthe kona the visibility is really quite good it’s a small SUV and so you’resitting up a little bit higher you’ve got great big windows all around therereally isn’t a problem in any direction in terms of visibility you’ve got plentyof headroom in here even though this one has the optional moonroof there’s noissue in terms of having front or back now there is a little bit of an issuewith legroom in the back it does feel kind of tight back therethere’s really not as much room as there are in some other small SUVs or evensome of Hyundai’s own products like the Elantra the interior quality is reallyquite good in fact you know most new Hyundai’s and Kias that we’ve seen thesedays they’ve really upped the interior quality game now everything in here isstill hard plastic there’s no soft touch stuff even on up high parts like on thedoor sills on the top of the dash it’s still all hard plastic but the grainingon it makes it look like it should be soft touch and as long as you’re nottouching it frankly it looks just fine this model is got thespecial paint on the outside and so it’s also got a special interior we’ve gotsome green trim rings and green piping in the seats as well now for 2018 that’sthe special color for 2019 this probably becomes orange and probably gets someupdates as well to what the interior looks like there’s a couple of differentinteriors you can choose from depending on the trim level that you’ve selectedbut there are cloth and leather options if you get a turbo engine youautomatically get leather interior as wellthe standard multimedia screen is a 7-inch touchscreen you get standardapple carplay and android auto but if you want to upgrade you can get thisthis is the 8 inch navigation screen and it comes also with the Infinity premiumaudio system which actually sounds pretty bumpy one of the reasons youmight buy a small crossover like this is for the utility of it and it does havemore cargo room than some competitors like the Jeep renegade or the ChevroletTrax but surprisingly it has less cargo room behind the second row thanHyundai’s own Veloster sports coupe so while you get a more comfortable vehicleand you get a lot more Headroom it’s not necessarily more practical in terms ofcargo so what has surprised us so much about the Hyundai Kona well it’s not howpretty it is because quite frankly it’s really not all that pretty we’re notsurprised by how roomy it is because unless you’re in the front seats reallynot all that roomy either but what has surprised us is how well it drives forhow big it is this is a really small SUV but it has a sophistication and a poiseto it when going down the road that makes it feel like a much larger moreexpensive vehicle and speaking of cost to start with it’s just over $20,000 fora base model and if you load it up with all the options like a turbo engine andall-wheel drive you’re looking at just under 30 grand out the door these are inHyundai showrooms right now and if you’d like to learn more you can read allabout it at cars. com

FIRST DRIVE: F39 BMW X2 Malaysian review – RM320k


Hi I’m Jonathan Lee from paultan. org and we’re here in sunny Portugal withthe brand-new BMW X2 – essentially an X1 coupe. So it’s got asportier, more dynamic look, aimed more at hipsters rather than young families. So, is this X2 just a marketing trick or is there actually some substanceunderneath? We’re taking it for a spin to find out. Let’s start with what’s under the bonnet. At launch there’s the sDrive20i, the xDrive20dand the xDrive25d. This one is the xDrive20dmaking 190 hp and 400 Nm of torque. The one we are gettingis the sDrive20i with a 2 litre petrol engine making 182 hpand 280 Nm of torque. This here has an 8-speed automatictransmission, the one we are getting has a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission andwhile this is four-wheel drive, the sDrive20iis front-wheel drive only. The styling is the main differentiatorsbetween this and the X1, so it’s a good job that this looks very different fromthe outside. There’s not a single piece here that is shared with the X1. At the front youhave these trapezoidal double kidney grilles which give it greater roadpresence – it’s actually a first for BMW. And then along here you have these hexagonalCorona-ring daytime running lights and full LED headlights. On the side thesewheels they measure up to 20 inches like you see here and the squared off wheelarches have an angled look to them which BMW says makes it look like it’s moving while it’sstill standing still. Then you have this roof line which is stretched andfairly low slung giving it that sort of a coupe look. You’ve got slim windows for a moredynamic look. The badges you see here they hark back to the classic BMW coupeslike the 2000 CS, the 3000 CSL and so on. On the back you havethese L-shaped LED taillights which are classically BMWthere’s a small rear window which makes it seem like it’s quite difficult to seeout of. These tailpipes they are 90 millimeters in diameterwhich BMW says is about the same size as an X6 M. Now let’s talkabout the models on offer unlike other BMWs you don’t get theSport Line or the Luxury Line. This just has the base model, and it goes straight to theM Sport pack which adds more aggressive front and rear bumpers and differentalloy wheels. There’s also for the first time on the BMW the M Sport X which isthe car that you see here with these grey highlights on the front the sideand the rear. This is not the one that we are getting, we’re getting the mid-rangeM Sport. The X2 won’t be cheap when it comes to Malaysia with an estimatedprice tag of RM320k. To put that into perspective the Mercedes-BenzGLA 250 is priced at RM270kand that’s with a more powerful engine and all-wheel drive. At least it’ll havemore kit a standard such as keyless entry, head-up display, a large touchscreen and dual zone automatic climate contro,l none of which are offered on theGLA. There are also LED headlights foglights and tail lights, hands-freepowered tailgate, powered seats with driver side memory and a reverse cameraunfortunately however you don’t get autonomous emergency braking which isunacceptable at this price range. Inside it’s kind of the same as X1 in terms ofthe design of the dashboard and so on There are a few changes though, thisdashboard is wrapped in Sensatec, which is basically BMW’s idea offake leather. There’s now an electronic gear lever thatgoes back to the same position whether it’s in reverse or drive, just like in otherBMWs. The infotainment system is the same as you’d find in the BMW 5-seriesThere is a tiled interface and live information on thehomescreen. The one that you see here is the one that we’ll be getting – it’s an8. 8-inch screen for the professional navigation system withtouch function. As with most BMWs the basics are well taken care of – the seatingposition is excellent and there’s plenty of support from the seats. There’s alsogreat visibility at the front, although the small rear window does meanthat rear visibility is impaired slightly. There’s also plenty of legroomand even though there’s a panoramic sunroof that is still enough headroomhere. Now let’s look at the back shall we?It’s in the back here where the BMW X2 struggles a bit. Headroom is actuallypretty tight and this high sill means that it feels quite claustrophobic inhere so it’s not the best if you have childrenHowever there’s plenty of legroom even with the front seat set to my drivingposition and you get air con vents and a rear armrest with dual cupholders. Open the tailgate, powered on this one you get 470 litres which is 35 litersless than the X1. However it’s still plenty big enough for all your luggageand remember if you want a more practical car there’s always the X1. Now let’s go for a drive shall we?So let’s talk about performance first. The car we are driving is an xDrive20dThe 2. 0 litre turbodiesel making 190 hp and 400 Nm oftorque. There’s an 8-speed automatic transmission driving all four wheels. With all that, 0-100is done in 7. 7 seconds and it’ll go all the way to 221 km/hIt also has a combined fuel consumption figure of between 4. 6 and4. 8 litres per 100 km. But what’s it like in thereal world? Not too bad actually. There’s a little bit of turbo lag when you’regoing down low, when it gets going it pulls cleaning all the way to theredline. Being a typical BMW turbodiesel that’s a little bit of rattle at idle, but once youget going it’s smooth and quiet. However there’s quite a lot of roadnoise and wind noise at speed so it’s not exactly the most refined car out thereWe won’t be getting this engine however. Instead we’re getting the sDrive20iwhich uses a 2. 0 litre turbo petrol engine making 192 hp and 280 Nm oftorque driving the front wheels through a 7-speed dual-clutch transmissionNow Malaysians are quite skeptical when it comes to double clutch transmissions tosay the least so we’ll have to try it out in Malaysia to see if it’s any goodMechanically the X2 rides on the same UKL platform as the X1 but with numerouschanges to make this a sportier car to drive. The body for example is 10%stiffer than the X1 and the springs dampers and anti-roll bars have beenadjusted to suit. BMW has also increased the front camber to reduce understeerThis car is also fitted with the M Sport suspension which is 10 mmlower than standard and it comes with pre-loaded bushings for bettercontrol of body movements. There’s also sports steering which has a quickerratio. Put all that together and the result is a car that really does feelquite sporty. Sure the steering may be lacking in feel but it’s quick accurateit allows you to place it exactly where you want it to be. And despite thetall ride height being that this is a crossover, there’s very little body roll, andowing to the fact that this is a four-wheel drive car, there’s very little understeerOne thing I have to say is that the ride is fairly firm. It’s not uncomfortable butyou do feel the bumps on the road even on these fairly smooth Portuguese roadsWe’ll have to try them on our pockmarked Malaysian roads to see how itfares over our potholes. So there you have it, the BMW X2. It’s certainly a capable carand while it does have a few niggles here and there that’s not such a badthing on a niche vehicle. What do you think of the looks, the specs andespecially the price? Leave your thoughts in the comment section. I’m Jonathan Lee frompaultan. org signing off, thanks for watching.

we at cars calm we’re kind of a skeptical Bunch now we’ve seen a lot ofelectric concepts come and go promising out there styling and fantastic rangebut finally we found something that might melt our cold hearts here in theJaguar ipace now part of the reason that I like the I paste so much is that itactually delivers on the promise of the styling seen on the I paste concept it’sa little bit more muted because you kind of have to fit things together for aproduction version for example it has larger side mirrors because of safetyregulations but it still looks futuristic sleek and it’s a low-slungSUV which is kind of in vogue these days Jaguar is also using the eye pace todebut a few new technologies that we’ve already seen from sister brand LandRovers Range Rover velar so namely that is touch pro duo and whatthat is it’s a new multimedia and all-around system that you use tocontrol much of the functions of the car without any physical buttons you havetwo screens here in the center console and these two dials which will actuallychange functions so sometimes will be for climate sometimes they’ll change howthe car drives just it’s a way to interact with the car without actuallytouching buttons it’s not my favorite because it’s kind of hard to use whileyou’re driving but our staff is actually little bit split on that now theeyepieces plunging roof line might suggest that there isn’t much room forbackseat passengers but that’s not the case there’s a lot of headroom here andyou also get a giant glass roof which will have a ton of light into the cabinand make everyone feel a little bit more comfortable one more cool feature in theback row there behind these seats here there are these two ports now Jaguarwill actually sell you different accessories so you can plug things inthere whether it be like a tablet holder or maybe even a coat rack and there’salso four USB ports back here which can be all used at the same time and thatgives this car eight total so if you own a ton of devices you can charge them allat the same time now the final important figure for the ipace is price now it’sgoing to start right at around $70,000 before any federal tax credits thatundercuts is chief competitor the Tesla Model X by about 10 grand and if youwant an even higher trim of the Tesla it’s gonna cost you way more moneyspeaking of way mo Jaguar has also entered into agreement with theself-driving company way mo and they’re going to provide up to 20,000 AI pacesfor their self-driving fleet and those will start to hit the road at around2020you
