All the Suzuki Cervos are up on Autocade, after having only the first and fourth on there since 2017. We filled in the gaps yesterday.

All the Baojuns are now up on Autocade. Since SAIC, GM and Wuling (a venture abbreviated to SGMW) created the marque in 2010, things have been rocky, though it wasn’t always so. Initially this was the parts’ bin brand: budget-priced cars which served as bases for Wuling, Chevrolet and even MG cars outside China. They… Read More »The three lives of Baojun (so far)
With the addition of the Xiaolong and Xiaolong Max, we believe we have Haval’s (哈弗) current range now up. It’s a tricky bunch with export names differing from the home ones, and as it’s Autocade, the home ones are what get indexed.

With Carlos Tavares gone from the CEO’s office at Stellantis, there’s talk about culling brands again. Who could be on the chopping block? There’s the newly revived Lancia, which had been on death row for some time under FCA. Only one of the new models announced last year has been released. But that would be… Read More »Stellantis might cull; who’s the target?
Here’s where you can add your thoughts about Autocade Year of Cars 2025: what you liked about it, what you’d like to see more of, and what you’d want to see less of.
At over 2,000 kg, the Emeya GT saloon might be unusual to Lotus purists, but it makes more sense than earlier four-door cars that bore the badge
For those who bought Year of Cars 2025, you’ll have seen a table that shows the top 10 in 2003, 2013 and 2023, though the last one was from a different source. There are new figures now based on units sold for 2024, detailed below. Toyota 10·39 million Volkswagen 8·48 million Hyundai 6·82 million Renault… Read More »Top 10 car makers by sales, 2024
One of the regular types of updates we did on Facebook was letting followers know about the latest additions, whenever we finished a series of them. Therefore, not every update went through—that would have meant a crazy level of duplication. We restricted these to a recently completed series of cars (e.g. one model line, multiple… Read More »Innocenti’s ADO16s
