Test Drive: 2016 Audi A3 Sportback E-tron

12-07-2016Kevin Harrison No comments

By Kevin Harrison Car names are an interesting thing. I mean, just think of how difficult it is to name a human being. The name needs to be perfect, ideally liked by both parents and is well suited to a personality that you still haven’t gotten to know yet. That’s why picking...

Test Drive: 2016 Mazda6 GT

06-07-2016Kevin Harrison No comments

By Kevin Harrison The Mazda6 is a fantastic car, but you won’t buy it. It has consistently won praise from those of us who rightly or wrongly claim to be experts on cars. More often than not, if you find a recent Mazda6 review, the author will be gushing on and on...

Test Drive: 2016 Toyota Prius

29-06-2016Kevin Harrison No comments

By Kevin Harrison Shapes can mean lots of things to lots of different people. The interpretation of shapes is an integral part of the arts community for example. Shapes can sometimes be iconic, especially when it comes to the auto industry. We’ve seen plenty of familiar shapes over the decade that would...

Test Drive: 2016 Mercedes-Benz Metris Cargo Van

21-06-2016Kevin Harrison No comments

By Kevin Harrison It’s a bit strange that, in the six years I’ve been reviewing new vehicles, I have never once reviewed a commercial vehicle such as a cargo van. Even stranger then that when the time finally came to get some seat time in a cargo van, it was made by...

Test Drive: 2016 Volkswagen Golf R

02-06-2016Kevin Harrison No comments

By Kevin Harrison "Shift gear, automatic, damned if I do" That declaration was not made by myself or any other car aficionado you may know. It's actually a lyric in a song called 'Bad Girls' by Sri Lankan rapper M.I.A. While I would take a manual transmission over an automatic no matter what the...

Test Drive: 2016 Ford C-Max Hybrid SE

23-05-2016Kevin Harrison No comments

By Kevin Harrison People sometimes ask me if there really is any true competitor to the Toyota Prius; the car that started the hybrid craze and arguably the most popular hybrid to ever be built. That's a bit of a tough question to answer. There was the Honda Insight, which most lambasted...

Test Drive: 2016 Land Rover Range Rover TD6

20-05-2016Kevin Harrison No comments

By Robert Nichols I have always known that Range Rovers are expensive; however I was not aware of just how pricey they actually are. I had been waiting patiently for the keys to the 2016 Range Rover TD6 HSE for a few months and had spent that time plotting how I...

Quick Drive: 2016 GMC Yukon Denali

16-05-2016Kevin Harrison No comments

By Kevin Harrison If you're an avid reader of cardriven.ca you may remember that I reviewed the Yukon Denali a few years ago. I called it my personal favourite of the three full-sized SUV's that GM currently offers. I've since driven the Escalade, but I have yet to have...

Test Drive: 2017 Hyundai Elantra Limited

09-05-2016Kevin Harrison No comments

By Kevin Harrison If you did a double take on the headline of this week's review, you could be forgiven. That's not a typo, you can indeed get a 2017 model vehicle this early into 2016. But the real question is, why bother doing so? Well, it may or may not surprise...

Test Drive: 2016 Audi Q3 Technik Quattro

02-05-2016Kevin Harrison No comments

By Kevin Harrison While I consider myself to be a fairly non-closeted fan of European cars, I have to admit, I’ve gone a bit back and forth when it comes to Audi. It has nothing to do with the product which obviously speaks for itself (hi Audi R8), but I’ve always...
