Into the death column for the US (and I presume North America), there will be no 2021 Honda Fits, Honda Civic Coupes and Honda Accords with manual transmissions. The Accords have already been discontinued, the Fits will end production in Mexico as well (to be made up for by the HR-V), and just Civic sedans and hatches moving forward.

So instead of the Voyager that is lower priced Pacifica in the US, Canada is calling it Grand Caravan.

You Canadian site also had news that the Civic hatchback production will move to the US next year. Currently, they are all imported from GB.

so globally Pacifica moves to a newer skin while Grand Caravan/Voyager inherits the previous shell... nice move, they don't spend a lot to redesign the vehicle...

( at first i thought only the AWD got the new look .. :whistle: )

Not really the right thread for this request, but it looks like it will be airing on Friday/Saturday on the SyFy channel.

Quite intersting: an electric car you could buy at an electronics market. I've never heard about the Chinese Aiways U5 (and the coupe version U6) that looks strange with an 'IN'-plate like Audi's press cars.

Not about a lot of vehicle, for now, but after 10 trucks tested in Germany and Switzerland for a year, 8 other Mercedes-Benz eActros will also be test-driven in Netherland and Belgium:
Starting signal for second test phase with further customers: Mercedes-Benz eActros electrifies Rotterdam and The Hague with logistics service provider Simon Loos

So if a movie/series set in a German / Swiss / Dutch / Belgian location shows an Actros with a blue grille, that won't mean a customized truck, but a pre-series vehicle :wink:

Was it mentioned here?
After the end of the Peugeot 405 in Iran, they restyled it in Azerbaijan and now call it 406:

(And they also have the 206+ as 207, like in Brazil some time ago)

Swace? That's a weird name. Doesn't exactly roll off the tongue.
15/09/2020 @ 20:10:53: Sandie: Soon in movies (or not)
I know someone who works in the factory that's building them and not even they know how it's to be pronounced. Other than making Suzuki Patrick Swayze jokes.

Expect a lot of people in the european continent pronouncing it "Swass".

Meanwhile, there's a another consequence to this Toyota-Suzuki deal : the Starlet is back !

It's a rebadged Suzuki Baleno for South Africa. It will be built in India, where it's already sold as the Toyota Glanza.

Swace? That's a weird name.

It's text-speak for It's a Waste of Space.

After being the upscale version of the Blazer some 20 years ago ( and its own model later ) the Trailblazer returns for 2021 almost as its Mini Me ( with a small " b " now.. because its smaller ? :grin: )

It's been available in China for a year now.

To be seen in future Mexican or Central/South American movies the 2021 RAM 700 , a ute that looks like it might be some kind of spiritual successor of the Dodge Ram 50

thinking about it... FWD and lack of 4x4 option might be making it closer to the Rampage after all...
