All hail the humble minivan: Why it’s cool again (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Of all the technological breakthroughs of the 1980s and 1990s, the one most memorable to millennials might just be the sliding door. While utility vehicles had used them for years, the automotive landscape completely changed with the introduction of the minivan. I remember getting into a friend’s new forest green Plymouth Voyager after school, slipping into the back row and marvelling at an interior that felt like a spaceship. It was a far cry from the wood-panelled station wagon, which was the

Outside Hyundai Motor Group’s sprawling production facility here, hundreds of cars neatly line the dock, waiting to be driven up a long steel ramp and onto a building-sized container ship. The largest of these vessels, built by Hyundai Glovis, can transport up to 10,800 vehicles to 21 different global markets. The dock feels like it goes on forever. Data sheets affixed to every windshield indicate final destinations. Some vehicles are headed to Canada – mostly small crossovers like the Tucson an
Review: Kia’s K4 hatchback is one of the best values for a car, especially if you like to drive (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Volkswagen left a hole in Canada’s compact hatchback market when it dropped the popular base-model Golf from its lineup, sending buyers toward its larger, entry-level Taos SUV.

When winter finally lost its grasp last year, Anthony Manoharan pulled his 1997 Nissan 180SX out of storage for the first time. Driving it on a cool spring day was a 25-year dream come true. Because it is a right-hand-drive vehicle, he rowed through the gearbox with his left hand, listening to the cult-famous, turbocharged SR20 four-cylinder engine wind out. Manoharan, who owns a Muay Thai and boxing studio in Toronto with his wife Ashli, says his passion began in high school. It started when he
The genesis of modern travel: We drive a replica of the world’s first production car (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I initially thought driving the world’s first production automobile would involve a mastery of obscure pedals and levers to avoid stalling or crashing into a pole, but the 1886 Benz Patent-Motorwagen was surprisingly intuitive. Climbing up into the open carriage is slightly awkward but not more difficult than getting into a modern full-size pickup truck. You sit on what resembles a cushioned, leather-covered park bench, with just enough space for two passengers. Instead of a steering wheel, you
