Reviews SummaryVerdict: Even the base model Cayenne delivers an agile driving experience, but those willing to dig deep into their bank account for one of Porsche’s more expensive Cayenne models are rewarded with a spirited drive like no other. The competition here is stiff, in the form of other German SUVs like the Audi Q8, BMW X5, and Mercedes-Benz GLE, and their performance variants. However, the Cayenne is not here to lose. | |
Reviews SummaryThe Nissan Kicks subcompact crossover is fully redesigned for 2025, and Nissan has managed to make it a much better vehicle for not much more money. The Kicks wears its accessible entry-level price like a badge, and its agreeable personality is likely to win over young and first-time shoppers. In the Canadian market, the new Nissan Kicks is a direct replacement for the Nissan Qashqai, which was discontinued at the end of 2022. Like the Qashqai did, the new Kicks offers available all-wheel drive (AWD) and more upscale features and finishes. The front-wheel drive (FWD) budget subcompact crossover formerly known as the Nissan Kicks carries over into 2025 in Canada under a new name, Nissan Kicks Play. Verdict: The 2025 Nissan Kicks is poised to put rivals on notice with its fantastic value, great standard features, and premium options. | |
