2016 Mitsubishi Outlander GT


Price: $31,000: Making its debut at the New York International Auto Show early this April, the 2016 Outlander looks to be an improved version of previous Outlanders.

2016 Honda BR-V


Price: starting at $16,600: First seen at the 2015 Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show, everyone is excited for the 2016 Honda BR-V to hit the roads. The BR-V will be powered by a 1.5 litre I-Vtec engine capable of producing 120 horsepower. The Asian car market has been long waiting for a small SUV vehicle, the BR-V was built specifically with the Asian car market in mind. It will be offered with two options: CVT gearbox or a 6-speed manual transmission.

What’s new: It boasts large LED tail lights, an additional scuff plate at the back and a strip of chrome above the number plate. The BR-V is jam-packed with many safety features such as an anti-lock braking system, airbags and electronic brakeforce distribution.

2016 Toyota Tacoma

Price: starting at $21,865: The Tacoma has had few updates, so Toyota had no choice but to play catchup with the 2016 model. There are no new inter-galactic technologies, and the previous Tacoma was the best selling truck in its segment without all the high-tech updates. It’s not as if die-hard Tacoma enthusiasts were expecting surprises, anyway.
