Peugeot's new pickup truck has an interesting secret, namely the fact that it's actually a Chinese pickup with a Japanese heart. The Landtrek is actually a badge-engineered Changan's Kaicene F70, reportedly powered by a Mitsubishi based engine. Peugeot plans to challenge the dominance of the Toyota Hilux in the light truck segment, which is extremely popular in devloping markets. With that in mind they have  limited its initial sales to sub-Saharan Africa, South, and Central America.

Volvo's mid life facelift means all their cars have got some fancy new stuff, including one of the coolest station wagons currently in the market. For the exterior, the wagon gets a new spoiler, fog lights, and a new front bumper. On the inside, the car replaces the rear 12-volt outlets with USB-C ports and upgraded Bowers and Wilkins audio system, meaning your kids can finally enjoy their phones in peace while you blast your favourite classical music during a road trip.
