2016 Honda Civic Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Five years ago I tested the then-new ninth-generation Honda Civic, and could hardly have been more disappointed. For decades innovative, idiosyncratic, engineering-driven Honda had offered the best small sedan, the one everyone else emulated. But the company lost the plot a few years ago, and the 2012 Civic looked bad... Comparison vehicle: 2017 Hyundai Elantra |

2016 Chevrolet Malibu Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Chevrolet used to own the midsize sedan market. Then, beginning in the mid-1980s, a combination of missteps by a disorganized GM and more desirable sedans from Ford, Honda, and Toyota destroyed Chevrolet's dominance. Four generations of the Chevrolet Malibu, introduced for the 1997, 2004, 2008, and 2013 model years, were... Comparison vehicle: 2016 Kia Optima |

2016 Hyundai Genesis 3.8 Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh During an initial drive at an event for invited media, Hyundai's second iteration of the Genesis luxury sedan impressed me, along with pretty much everyone else. While the original Genesis was a good car given how much it cost, the second seemed much better, even a thoroughly credible alternative... Comparison vehicle: 2016 Audi A6 / S6 |

2016 Volvo XC90 Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Once upon a time the Volvo XC90 was the hottest crossover on the market. However, that time was 2003, and while the XC90 remained largely unchanged in the decade-plus that followed, the rest of the world did not. Competitors such as the Acura MDX and BMW X5 were fully redesigned... Comparison vehicle: 2016 Acura MDX |

2016 Hyundai Tucson Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh For 2016, Hyundai has redesigned the Tucson, adding three inches of length and one of width to make it more clearly a compact crossover. (The first two generations fell in between size classes.) Beyond the dimensional changes, the new Tucson has a new, more efficient engine and transmission (though not...

2016 Honda Pilot Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Honda was early to the three-row crossover party with the 2003 Pilot. Unfortunately, the 2009 redesign, with its chunky exterior, plasticky interior, and trucky dynamics, removed the model from "best pick" lists. Those weren't good years for Hondas in general, as the company lost sight of the things that made... Comparison vehicle: 2014 Toyota Highlander |

2016 Mazda CX-3 Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh If you're among the increasing number of people who realize that a small crossover is all the car they really need, then you suddenly have many to choose from ranging in character from functional and economical (Honda HR-V) to somewhat luxurious (Buick Encore) and from off-road-ready (Jeep...

2015 Subaru Outback Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Subaru killed the wagon in order to save it. Twenty years ago, in response to surging SUV sales, the company took its Legacy station wagon, added some lower body cladding, and appended "Outback" to its name. The following model year (1996) they raised the suspension an inch or so. Sales... Comparison vehicle: 2015 Jeep Cherokee |

2015 Hyundai Sonata Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh Though barely on anyone's radar 15 years ago, Hyundai has tripled its U.S. sales in the years since and aims to become one of the world's largest auto makers. Critical to achieving this goal: a top-selling midsize sedan. While Hyundai has been running its state-of-the-art Montgomery, Alabama, plant around the... Comparison vehicle: 2014 Ford Fusion |
