2026 Honda CR-V LX Review
The Honda CR-V combines seven-seat practicality, a 190 hp turbo engine, strong ride comfort and Honda Sensing, but faces a growing number of well-equipped rivals around its AED 104,900 starting price in the UAE
What three letters come to mind when you’re looking for a reliable family SUV? For many buyers, particularly in the GCC, the answer is CR-V. The Honda CR-V has built its reputation over three decades. Honda says the SUV surpassed 15 million global sales in August 2025, 30 years after its 1995 debut,…

2026 Tesla Cyberbeast Review
The flagship of Tesla’s range is an outlandish full-size pickup that breaks industry norms, beats supercars to 100 km/h and is packed with features and party tricks

2026 Nissan Patrol PRO-4X Review
Big, bold, hugely capable and predictably thirsty, the Patrol PRO-4X combines a 425 hp twin-turbo V6 with a refined 8-seat cabin and serious off-road hardware, but those transmission buttons annoy.
Few SUVs are as closely woven into Middle Eastern motoring culture as the Nissan Patrol.
