2024 Alfa Romeo Tonale, GMC Canyon top TCC’s new car reviews

Our full reviews of 2023 models nears a close with reviews of the redesigned 2023 GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Colorado siblings. We also test out the latest all-new cars, starting the 2024 Alfa Romeo Tonale, a small crossover that represents a new entry point into the exotic Italian brand. 

Here’s what moved us this week. 

New car reviews

2024 Alfa Romeo Tonale review

The small crossover SUV comes standard as a plug-in hybrid with 30 miles of range, good looks, agile handling, and a roomy cabin. It earns a TCC Rating of 7.0 out of 10. 

2023 Chevrolet Colorado review

The redesigned mid-size pickup truck comes loaded with standard features but only a crew-cab short-bed configuration. It’s a 5.6 out of 10. 

2023 GMC Canyon review

GMC’s new mid-size pickup scores a 310-hp turbo-4, a crew cab and a short bed, as well as a new off-road attitude. It’s a 5.4 out of 10. 

2024 Honda HR-V review

The small crossover offers big space but middling fuel economy, adding up to a TCC Rating of 6.5 out of 10. 

2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 review

A solid overall choice, the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is best appreciated for its slick interior that’s loaded with high-tech features as well as its broad lineup of powertrains. It combines for a TCC Rating of 6.0 out of 10.

New car previews

2024 BMW X5 preview

The luxury mid-size SUV returns with even more standard tech and convenience features, as well as a standard mild-hybrid powertrain. The tech upgrades keep it fresh, and the style and powertrain tweaks should help it maintain its edge over luxury rivals.

2024 Ford Ranger preview

The Ranger is redesigned for 2024 with a (small) buffet of turbocharged engine options, large touchscreens, and a feeling that Ford shrunk its best-selling F-150 pickup for those looking for something more manageable.

2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E preview

A price cut enables Ford’s still-awesome foray into high-performance EVs.
