KBB.com Editorial

This Week in Car Buying: Leasing up; Transaction prices reach plateau; Volvo XC90 big winner; Sales up, VW down; Ford unfriends Friends promotion

2016 Cadillac Escalade: The 2016 Cadillac Escalade takes all that’s good about GM’s full-size SUV platform and then loads it with power, luxury and attitude.

2016 GMC Canyon: Great looks, three engine choices, big capabilities; the 2016 GMC Canyon redefines what had become a stale compact/midsize-pickup segment.

2016 Lexus GX: The 2016 Lexus GX 460 is one of the very few luxury SUVs that can both impress at glitzy valet parking and deal capably with off-road mud.

2016 Lexus LS: The 2016 Lexus LS is the latest edition of the luxury sedan that over a quarter-century ago announced a new standard in pursuing perfection.

2016 Lexus LX: The 2016 Lexus LX 570 gets a new look, new transmission and a host of new technologies, and remains a formidable off-roader.

2016 Lexus RC: New last year, the 2016 Lexus RC gets two new engines, sharpening its edge against rival sports coupes like the BMW 4 Series.

2016 Porsche Panamera: While a Porsche sedan may turn off purists, there's no doubt that the 2016 Porsche Panamera is a sedan worthy of the Porsche name.

2016 Toyota Land Cruiser: As comfortable traversing rugged trails as it is docked in valet parking, the 2016 Toyota Land Cruiser is a true SUV with a luxurious side.
