For drivers looking to get the most mileage out of every gallon without sacrificing technology, comfort, or style, the 2025 Nissan Kicks delivers. This fuel-efficient compact SUV is an ideal match for car shoppers prioritizing budget-friendly driving—especially those in the Inland Empire and Ontario, CA area where commutes and weekend road trips are part of daily life. Whether you’re in the market for a new car or used car, the Nissan Kicks is a standout in the small SUV segment for its smart engineering and EPA-estimated fuel economy.

In this blog, we break down everything you need to know about the Nissan Kicks MPG, including performance specs, trim comparisons, and real-world advantages that make this new Nissan SUV a wise choice for your next vehicle.

2025 Nissan Kicks MPG by the Numbers

The 2025 Nissan Kicks boasts impressive fuel economy, making it one of the most efficient options in its class. According to EPA estimates, the front-wheel-drive (FWD) version of the Kicks achieves up to:

• 28 MPG city / 35 MPG highway / 31 MPG combined

For those opting for all-wheel drive (AWD), the Kicks still performs well with:

• 27 MPG city / 34 MPG highway / 30 MPG combined

This efficiency is possible thanks to the Kicks’ standard 2.0-liter Direct Injection Gasoline (DIG) 4-cylinder engine, which produces 141 horsepower and 140 lb-ft of torque. Paired with Nissan’s Xtronic CVT® (Continuously Variable Transmission), the Kicks balances performance with a smooth and economical ride—ideal for city driving, freeway cruising, or weekend adventures across Ontario, California.

Why MPG Matters When Car Shopping

When you’re car shopping, whether for a new or used car, MPG (miles per gallon) is one of the most important specs to consider. The higher the MPG, the more cost-effective your driving becomes. With fuel prices fluctuating, choosing a car like the 2025 Nissan Kicks helps reduce trips to the gas station while providing consistent savings over time.

For Ontario, CA drivers and those across the Inland Empire, long commutes and urban traffic can add up quickly in fuel costs. That’s why an SUV like the Kicks, with strong fuel economy ratings, makes smart financial sense without giving up the practical benefits of a crossover SUV.

Performance and Efficiency Features That Enhance MPG

The Nissan Kicks is engineered for fuel-efficient driving, not just in EPA testing but in real-world scenarios. Several features help optimize its mileage:

• Xtronic CVT®: This continuously variable transmission eliminates traditional gear hunting, keeping the engine operating in its optimal range for fuel efficiency.
• Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD): Available for those who want extra grip in wet or uneven road conditions, Nissan’s AWD system also works intelligently to preserve MPG.
• Aerodynamic Design: The sleek body styling of the Kicks is not just about aesthetics—it helps reduce drag and improve highway fuel economy.

2025 Nissan Kicks Trim Levels and MPG

The 2025 Nissan Kicks is available in three trims: S, SV, and SR. All are powered by the same efficient 2.0L 4-cylinder engine but offer different features to suit various budgets and lifestyle needs.

Despite added features and style, fuel economy remains solid:

Nissan Safety Shield® 360: Efficiency Meets Safety

Fuel efficiency is just one part of what makes the 2025 Nissan Kicks a well-rounded vehicle. Every trim includes Nissan Safety Shield® 360 as standard, offering six advanced driver-assist features:

• Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection
• Rear Automatic Braking
• Blind Spot Warning
• Rear Cross Traffic Alert
• Lane Departure Warning
• High Beam Assist

This suite not only helps drivers stay safe but also contributes to more confident and controlled driving, which can indirectly help maintain steady fuel economy by avoiding aggressive acceleration or braking.

A Brief History of the Toyota 4Runner

The Toyota 4Runner first hit the scene in 1984, based on the popular Toyota Hilux pickup truck. Initially marketed as a compact utility vehicle with a removable rear canopy, it quickly earned a following for its versatility and reliability. Over the years, the 4Runner transformed from a simple, bare-bones off-roader into a refined yet trail-capable SUV.

By the early 2000s, the 4Runner had evolved into a full-size SUV, offering more creature comforts while preserving its rugged DNA. Now, in its sixth generation, the 2025 Toyota 4Runner not only honors its roots but introduces cutting-edge updates, most notably in the Trailhunter trim, built for overlanding enthusiasts and off-road purists alike.

MPG That Doesn’t Sacrifice Capability

Serious Off-Road Hardware

What truly sets the Trailhunter apart is its off-road hardware. Toyota partnered with respected aftermarket names like Old Man Emu and ARB to give this SUV real trail cred straight from the factory.

• Stabilizer Disconnect Mechanism (SDM) for improved wheel articulation on uneven terrain
• Multi-Terrain Select (MTS) and Crawl Control (CRAWL) to tailor throttle and traction control to various off-road conditions

Built-in Utility for Overlanders

Toyota didn’t stop at suspension and drivetrain upgrades. The Trailhunter includes built-in tools for self-sufficiency in remote areas. Features like a 2400W AC power supply and onboard air compressor allow you to power electronics or air up tires after a day of hitting the trails.

A heritage-inspired “TOYOTA” grille with integrated LED lighting and Rigid Industries® color-selectable fog lights provides not only classic style but improved visibility during night runs or poor weather conditions.

Rugged Comfort Inside

While the outside screams overland ready, the interior of the 2025 Toyota 4Runner Trailhunter is refined and comfortable. The cabin features Mineral SofTex®-trimmed seats with yellow stitching for a rugged yet upscale look.

Passengers can expect ample room, smart storage spaces, and modern tech features, making this new Toyota SUV as comfortable in daily commutes as it is at a mountain trailhead.

The roof rack and flexible cargo area ensure you’re never short on storage, whether you’re packing up for a weekend getaway or a cross-country road trip.

For decades, the automotive industry has proven its resilience through economic shifts, supply chain disruptions, evolving consumer needs, and global policy changes. In 2025, the conversation around auto import tariffs is once again gaining momentum—but rather than being met with panic or uncertainty, many within the industry are choosing to remain optimistic. While the topic of tariffs can certainly bring questions and challenges, the bigger story here is the strength and adaptability of the auto sector. Ontario Auto Center remains optimistic with many of our dealers pledging to retain pricing on many new vehicles. Are you looking for your next vehicle shop new or used at OAC. 

Understanding the Current Tariff Landscape 

The talk of auto import tariffs has once again surfaced, following political shifts and revised trade policies. Earlier this year, discussions around potential tariffs on imported vehicles and auto parts were reignited, particularly regarding vehicles manufactured outside of the United States of America. As outlined in this article from Politico, the former administration’s position on tariffs has been revisited as the U.S. navigates its approach to global trade. 

It’s important to note that while the Politico article highlights real concerns, it is not the most current representation of the administration’s position or the expected ultimate outcome. Tariff decisions are still in flux and have not been finalized. In other words, the auto industry remains in a holding pattern—watchful, yet calm. 

The Silver Lining: Tariff Delays Offer Time and Opportunity 

One of the most encouraging developments has been the delay in implementing any new tariffs. These delays are not only welcomed by automakers and dealers but also by everyday car shoppers. They provide breathing room for the industry to adapt, for lawmakers to gather feedback from all stakeholders, and for customers to continue making confident purchases without sudden price hikes. 

While there is no doubt that tariff threats create uncertainty, they also serve as a catalyst for innovation and strategic planning. The pause in implementation allows automakers to explore domestic manufacturing opportunities, increase efficiency in logistics, and revisit supplier agreements. It also opens the door for constructive discussions between industry leaders and policymakers—something we’ve seen unfold recently as outlined in the AIADA’s industry-facing letter. 

Consumer Confidence Remains High 

Despite the headlines, car buyers remain undeterred. Across the country, new and used car shoppers are continuing to visit dealerships, explore vehicle options, and take advantage of seasonal promotions. Whether shopping for a fuel-efficient hybrid, an electric SUV, or a family-sized crossover, customers still have access to competitive pricing, financing incentives, and a robust inventory of imported and domestically produced vehicles at Ontario Auto Center. 

Dealerships, in turn, are reinforcing trust by communicating transparently with their customers. By educating buyers about what’s happening with tariffs and what it may or may not mean for future pricing, dealerships are helping consumers feel confident in their purchases—right now.

How Dealerships Are Preparing 

The automotive retail sector is no stranger to curveballs, and many dealerships are proactively preparing for whatever the future holds. That means: 

• Diversifying inventory between domestic and imported vehicles 

• Locking in pricing with manufacturers and suppliers to avoid mid-year cost spikes 

• Offering limited-time incentives to encourage sales in the present 

• Expanding certified pre-owned options, giving buyers more price flexibility 

• Enhancing trade-in programs to help offset potential cost increases 

These strategies ensure that dealerships remain resilient regardless of how the tariff conversation unfolds. Many dealer groups have also joined forces to lobby for practical and sustainable solutions—ensuring their voices are heard in Washington. 

The Bigger Picture: The Auto Industry Has Been Here Before 

This isn’t the first time the industry has navigated tariff talk, and it won’t be the last. From the steel tariffs of past decades to the semiconductor shortage during the COVID-19 pandemic, the auto industry has always managed to adapt and rebound. These moments in history serve as important reminders that flexibility, innovation, and long-term vision are key. 

Tariffs, should they eventually be enacted, may accelerate similar innovation shifts, driving manufacturers and retailers to become more agile, localized, and cost-conscious. 

What This Means for Car Shoppers 

For car buyers, the message is clear: there’s no need to wait or worry. Whether you’re shopping for a new car or exploring used models, the current market still offers great value and flexibility. The delay in tariffs gives shoppers the gift of time—time to take advantage of today’s prices, today’s interest rates, and today’s incentives. 

An Industry Working Together 

Behind the scenes, industry leaders are working diligently to find common ground with policymakers. Organizations like the AIADA (American International Automobile Dealers Association) are advocating on behalf of over 9,000 international nameplate franchises, making sure the voices of local dealerships—and their customers—are heard. 

These efforts are focused not only on preventing short-term disruptions but also on building a stronger, more secure future for the automotive market as a whole. 

Looking Forward With Optimism 

While uncertainty can feel daunting, it’s often in these moments that the greatest growth occurs. The automotive industry has shown time and again that it can evolve, adapt, and thrive no matter the external circumstances. 

The current pause in tariff implementation gives everyone a moment to reflect, prepare, and plan wisely. And for car shoppers, it’s a chance to act with confidence, knowing that the vehicles, services, and support they need are still readily available. 

Final Thoughts 

The topic of auto import tariffs will likely remain part of the national conversation for some time, but that doesn’t mean doom and gloom for the car market. On the contrary, the resilience of the automotive industry and the strength of local dealerships are paving a positive road forward. 

With supply chains stabilizing, consumer confidence holding strong, and innovation continuing to accelerate, the outlook for 2025 is bright. So whether you’re eyeing a sleek sedan, a rugged truck, or an eco-friendly electric SUV, now is still a great time to start your car shopping journey at Ontario Auto Center.

Looking for something that blurs the line between a premium sedan and stylish crossover? The 2025 Toyota Crown makes a strong case for being one of the most unique vehicles in today’s market. With hybrid efficiency, a raised stance, and a surprisingly refined cabin, this latest Toyota entry brings a refreshing twist to the traditional sedan. In this Toyota Crown review, we’ll explore what makes it such a compelling choice for today’s car shoppers.

A Bold Design That Turns Heads

The Toyota Crown isn’t your typical sedan—it stands taller, rides smoother, and exudes premium appeal. Its sleek fastback silhouette and available bi-tone exterior give it a distinctive presence that you won’t find on most vehicles in its class.

Whether parked at the office or gliding through the city at night, the Toyota Crown is built to be noticed.

Hybrid Power with Premium Performance

Every 2025 Toyota Crown comes equipped with a hybrid powertrain and standard All-Wheel Drive (AWD), offering both power and fuel efficiency no matter which trim you choose.

An Interior That Feels First Class

Step inside and you’ll find a cabin that rivals some luxury brands. Soft-touch materials, bronze accents, and leather-trimmed front seats. The front and rear seats are both heated, while front-seat passengers can also enjoy ventilation for those warm Ontario days.

Tech-wise, the Toyota Crown is loaded. A large 12.3-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, and available JBL® Premium Audio ensure you’re always connected and entertained. Even entry-level trims come well-equipped for the modern driver.

Intuitive Safety and Driver Assistance

Toyota’s commitment to safety is on full display in the 2025 Crown. Every model includes Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0—a suite of driver-assist features like Lane Tracing Assist, Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, and Road Sign Assist.

Plus, available features like Traffic Jam Assist and Front Cross-Traffic Alert bring peace of mind when navigating crowded streets or highways.

Is the Toyota Crown Right for You?

If you’re shopping for a new car that breaks the mold of traditional sedans, or if you’re coming from a used car and want an upgrade in both technology and comfort, the Toyota Crown delivers. It’s a strong pick for those torn between wanting a sporty hybrid, a tech-filled commuter, and something that feels upscale without going full luxury brand.

It also holds appeal for shoppers eyeing Electric SUVs but still wanting the familiarity and convenience of a hybrid setup with great MPG and AWD capability..

Choosing the perfect car for daily commuting is an important decision, especially in a city like Ontario, California, where freeway driving, local traffic, and busy parking lots are part of everyday life. Whether your commute is short or stretches across the Inland Empire, finding a reliable, comfortable, and efficient car can make a big difference in your daily routine. If you are wondering how to pick the right one, Ontario Auto Center is here to help you find the perfect fit.

Prioritize Fuel Efficiency

Fuel efficiency should be at the top of your list when shopping for a commuter car. A vehicle with strong gas mileage can save you hundreds of dollars each year at the pump. Many drivers in Ontario look for hybrid models, plug-in hybrids, or fuel-efficient gasoline cars to keep costs down, especially with the amount of highway driving in the area. If you have easy access to charging stations at home or work, a fully electric vehicle can be a smart choice too.

Focus on Comfort and Technology

Since you will spend a significant amount of time behind the wheel, comfort is key. Look for a car with supportive seating, smooth ride quality, and modern technology to enhance your drive. Features like heated seats, dual-zone climate control, and a quiet cabin can make a big difference during long commutes. Technology like Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, wireless charging, and intuitive infotainment systems can keep you connected and entertained on the road without distractions.

Consider Size and Parking Ease

Driving and parking in Ontario can vary from open freeway stretches to crowded downtown lots. Choosing a car that matches your parking needs is important. Compact cars are easier to park and maneuver through traffic, while a midsize sedan or small SUV offers extra room if you need to carry passengers or cargo regularly. Think about your daily environment and prioritize a vehicle that will make commuting and parking stress-free.

Check Reliability and Safety Ratings

A daily commuter should be dependable and safe. Look for vehicles with strong reliability scores and advanced safety features. Driver-assistance systems like adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, automatic emergency braking, and blind-spot monitoring can make your commute easier and safer. Choosing a car with a strong reputation for longevity can also reduce the chances of unexpected repairs.

New vs. Used: Which Is Better for a Commuter Car?

Both new and used cars have benefits for commuting. A new car gives you the latest features, full warranty coverage, and peace of mind, especially if you plan to rack up a lot of miles. A certified pre-owned (CPO) or well-maintained used car, on the other hand, can offer significant savings without sacrificing quality. At Ontario Auto Center, you will find a wide selection of new vehicles and used vehicles to fit every commuter’s needs and budget.

Top Features to Look for in a Daily Commuter

When shopping for the ideal commuter car, consider vehicles that offer:

• Excellent fuel efficiency or electric range
• Comfortable, supportive seating for long drives
• User-friendly infotainment systems with smartphone integration
• Advanced driver-assistance features for added safety
• Easy maneuverability and compact dimensions for city driving
• Low maintenance costs and strong reliability ratings

The Toyota 4Runner has carved its legacy as one of the most iconic off-road SUVs in the automotive world. For decades, it has remained a top pick among adventure seekers, daily drivers, and families alike, especially for car shoppers looking for a rugged yet reliable Toyota SUV. Whether you’re in the market for a new car or a used car, the Toyota 4Runner offers a compelling blend of durability, utility, and evolution. In this blog, we’ll explore the Toyota 4Runner’s history in-depth, highlighting how this SUV has transformed from a compact utility vehicle into a refined and capable trail machine, with a spotlight on the all-new 2025 model.

The First Generation (1984–1989): Utility-Inspired Beginnings

Originally based on the Toyota Hilux pickup, the first-generation 4Runner featured a two-door body with seating for four and a removable rear hardtop. It launched with a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine producing modest horsepower but outstanding reliability. Toyota aimed this vehicle at outdoor enthusiasts and off-road adventurers who wanted a more versatile option than a standard truck.

In later years, Toyota began offering independent front suspension on some trims, enhancing on-road comfort, and available turbocharged engine. These changes improved both on-road comfort and trail performance. The first-gen 4Runner set the foundation for what would become one of the most beloved off-road SUVs ever built with features that set it apart from other SUVs like a roll-down rear window and steel roll bar.

The Second Generation (1990–1995): Purpose-Built and More Refined

Toyota’s second-generation 4Runner marked a major shift. Gone was the fiberglass top—instead, the SUV featured a fully integrated steel body, making it more refined and family-friendly. While it still shared some architecture with the Hilux, this generation moved further from its pickup roots.

Offered in both two-door and four-door versions (though the two-door was discontinued early in the run), the second-generation 4Runner provided better safety, interior comfort, and modern features. New amenities included a choice of a 4-cylinder or V6 engine.

The shift toward a more passenger-focused experience did not come at the cost of off-road capability. The second-gen 4Runner remained an ideal companion for outdoor enthusiasts while offering an increasingly comfortable daily driving experience, paving the way for broader appeal in the growing SUV market.

The Third Generation (1996–2002): A Modern Midsize SUV Emerges

The third-generation Toyota 4Runner arrived in 1996 and represented the most significant leap forward yet. Built on a new platform distinct from the Hilux, the SUV featured improved ride quality, sleeker styling, and a more car-like driving experience without abandoning its body-on-frame construction. Throughout its run the third-gen offered a 2WD four-cylinder model with either a five-speed manual or a four-speed electronic transmission (4ECT) was added, along with a 4WD four-cylinder with a 4ECT and a 4WD V6 Limited. This generation also introduced luxury-oriented features such as leather seating, sunroofs, and keyless entry. Despite the comfort upgrades, the 4Runner maintained its reputation for off-road toughness with available locking rear differentials and higher ground clearance.

This generation helped solidify the 4Runner as a do-it-all vehicle—one that could handle family road trips just as easily as it could conquer rocky trails.

The Fourth Generation (2003–2009): Bigger Power, Greater Capability

Launched in 2003, the fourth-generation 4Runner was larger, more powerful, and more technologically advanced than its predecessors. Now riding on a platform shared with the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, this version of the 4Runner offered a new level of capability and refinement.

For the first time, buyers could opt for a V8 engine—giving the 4Runner serious towing strength and increased torque for off-roading. The standard 4.0-liter V6 remained a popular option, offering a solid balance between power and efficiency.

Inside, the SUV delivered higher-end amenities including dual-zone climate control, optional navigation, and premium audio systems. Toyota also increased its focus on safety, with features such as downhill/hill-start assist control and side-curtain airbags becoming standard on many trims.

The fourth-generation 4Runner catered to drivers who wanted an SUV that could serve as both a daily commuter and a capable weekend warrior.

The Fifth Generation (2010–2024): Off-Road Legacy Strengthened

The fifth-generation Toyota 4Runner debuted in 2010 and has remained in production for over a decade—a testament to its enduring popularity. Built with off-road capability in mind, this generation doubled down on ruggedness while incorporating the connectivity and safety features that modern drivers expect.

The familiar 4.0-liter V6 remained under the hood, delivering ample torque for both urban driving and trail crawling. Specialized trims like the TRD Off-Road, TRD Pro, and Venture Edition added off-road gear such as crawl control, Multi-Terrain Select, and heavy-duty suspension components.

Toyota gradually updated the fifth generation 4Runner interior tech across the generation, adding Apple CarPlay, Android Auto. They even added Toyota Safety Sense P (TSS-P)starting with the 2019 model year, which brought advanced driver-assist features like lane departure alert, adaptive cruise control, and pre-collision braking.

While many competitors transitioned to unibody construction, the 4Runner proudly retained its body-on-frame design—ensuring it remained a true off-road SUV amidst a sea of crossover lookalikes.

The All-New 2025 Toyota 4Runner: Reinvented Yet Recognizable

In 2025, Toyota ushers in the sixth generation of the 4Runner, bringing the most dramatic transformation in its history. Built on the TNGA-F global truck platform—the same underpinnings as the 2024 Toyota Tacoma and Toyota Tundra—the new 4Runner boasts improved rigidity, advanced suspension geometry, and increased refinement both on and off the road.

Powering the standard 2025 4Runner is a turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine producing 278 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque. For even greater performance, the available i-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain generates 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque, giving drivers a powerful yet efficient option.

Visually, the 2025 4Runner combines its heritage styling with modern touches. Square wheel arches, an aggressive front fascia, and an updated rear profile signal a bold new era while honoring the nameplate’s roots. Inside, drivers will find a thoroughly modern cabin featuring an available 14-inch multimedia touchscreen, digital gauge cluster, premium materials, and generous passenger space.

Safety remains a priority, with Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 standard across the lineup. This includes pre-collision warning, adaptive cruise control, lane tracing assist, and road sign assist, making the new 4Runner one of the safest off-road SUVs on the market.

Off-road-focused trims like the TRD Pro and Trailhunter return, equipped with features like aluminum skid plates and FOX shock, ensuring that the 4Runner remains a true adventure machine.

Toyota 4Runner in Today’s Car Shopping Landscape

For car shoppers in Ontario and the Inland Empire, the Toyota 4Runner remains an enduring favorite for good reason. Whether you’re shopping for a brand-new 2025 model or a certified used car, the 4Runner consistently offers value, reliability, and trail-ready performance.

Unlike many modern SUVs that sacrifice capability for style, the 4Runner sticks to its roots with body-on-frame construction, high ground clearance, and a proven four-wheel-drive system. This makes it a top choice for drivers who want more than just a daily commuter—they want a partner for their outdoor lifestyle.

One big decision drivers face is whether to lease or buy a car. The right answer depends on your lifestyle, budget, and long-term plans. For California drivers, factors like commute distances, tax considerations, and access to the latest vehicle technology can all play a role in the decision. Whether you’re looking for a new or used car, understanding the key differences in the lease vs buy conversation will help you make a choice that fits your needs. At Ontario Auto Center, we’re here to guide you through both options with flexible solutions across a wide range of brands.

What’s the Difference Between Leasing and Buying a Car?

It’s vital to understand how leasing and buying differ. When you buy a car, you either pay upfront or finance it through a loan, and once it’s paid off, you own the vehicle outright. With a lease, you’re essentially paying to drive the car for a set period, which is typically 24 to 36 months, without actually taking ownership. At the end of the lease term, you return the vehicle or have the option to purchase it. The lease vs buy decision often comes down to whether you prefer lower monthly payments and driving a new car every few years, or if long-term ownership and building equity in your vehicle is more important to you.

Pros and Cons of Leasing a Car

Leasing is a popular option for California drivers who enjoy staying behind the wheel of the latest models. Monthly payments are generally lower compared to financing a purchase, and leases often require less money down. Leasing also allows you to take advantage of newer technology, better fuel efficiency, and updated safety features more frequently. However, leases come with mileage limits and potential fees for excess wear and tear. If you have a long daily commute or plan to take frequent road trips, these limits can add up quickly. Additionally, because you don’t own the car, you won’t build equity over time.

Pros and Cons of Buying a Car

Buying a car is ideal for those who plan to keep their vehicle for many years. While monthly payments on a loan may be higher than a lease, once the loan is paid off, you have full ownership and no further payments. There are no mileage restrictions, giving you the freedom to drive as much as you want. On the other hand, buying typically requires a larger down payment, and as the car ages, you’ll be responsible for maintenance and repairs once the warranty expires. Depreciation is also something to consider, but if you hold onto your vehicle, the long-term value often outweighs this factor.

Which Option Is Better for California Drivers?

The lease vs buy choice depends heavily on your driving habits and financial goals. In California, leasing can be attractive due to the ability to upgrade frequently, especially with the rapid advancement of electric vehicles and hybrid technology. Plus, some leases offer incentives that make driving an eco-friendly car more affordable. Buying might be the better route if you drive extensively across cities like Ontario, Fontana, Riverside, and the greater Inland Empire, where mileage limits could be restrictive. Ownership also makes sense if you prefer to customize your vehicle or plan to keep it well beyond the loan term. Both options have their place—it’s about finding what works best for your lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions about the lease vs buy decision? Here are some common topics California drivers often ask when weighing their options.

What Are the Tax Benefits of Leasing a Car vs Buying a Car?

In California, leasing a car often means you only pay sales tax on your monthly payments rather than the full value of the vehicle upfront, which can be a short-term advantage. When buying, you pay sales tax on the total purchase price at the time of sale or financing. For business owners, leasing may also offer additional tax deductions, but it’s best to consult a tax professional to understand which option provides the most benefit for your situation.

Is There a Leasing vs Buying a Car Calculator I Can Use?

Yes, tools like the Edmunds Lease vs Buy Calculator can help you compare costs based on factors like down payment, monthly payments, interest rates, and lease terms. Using a calculator is a great way to visualize which option aligns better with your financial goals.

Does Leasing or Buying Affect My Insurance Costs in California?

Leased vehicles often require higher insurance coverage, including gap insurance, since the leasing company technically owns the car. When you buy, you have more flexibility in choosing your coverage once the vehicle is paid off. However, rates will also depend on the type of car, your driving history, and location.

Can I Buy My Car After Leasing It?

Yes, most leases include a buyout option at the end of the term. If you’ve grown attached to your vehicle or find that its residual value is a good deal, purchasing your leased car can be a smart move. This option gives you flexibility if you decide you want long-term ownership after experiencing the benefits of leasing.

What Is a Hybrid Vehicle?

A hybrid vehicle combines a traditional internal combustion engine with an electric motor and battery. This combination allows the vehicle to switch between gas power, electric power, or use both simultaneously for optimized fuel efficiency.

There are different types of hybrids:

• Full hybrids (like the Toyota Prius) can run on electric-only power at low speeds.
• Mild hybrids use the electric motor to assist the gasoline engine but cannot drive solely on electricity.
• Plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) feature a larger battery that can be charged externally, offering more all-electric range.

Hybrid car shopping appeals to drivers looking for a fuel-efficient option without fully committing to charging infrastructure or range anxiety.

What Is an Electric Vehicle?

An electric vehicle (EV) runs entirely on electric power and does not use a gasoline engine. Instead, it uses an electric motor powered by a large battery pack, which must be charged from an external power source.

Most electric vehicles are capable of Level 2 or DC fast charging, making them ideal for daily commuting, especially in urban and suburban areas with charging stations.

EVs are known for:

• Zero tailpipe emissions
• Low maintenance needs
• Instant torque and quiet driving experience

When considering electric car shopping, it’s important to evaluate your daily driving range, access to chargers, and long-term savings potential.

Key Differences Between Hybrid and Electric Vehicles

Each vehicle type offers unique strengths. For example, hybrids are great for long-distance trips with fewer fuel stops, while EVs shine in urban areas with accessible charging and stop-and-go traffic.

Benefits of Hybrid Vehicles

Hybrid cars remain a popular choice for those transitioning from gas-powered vehicles toward electrification. Here’s why:

1. Fuel Efficiency

Many hybrids, such as the Honda Accord Hybrid and Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, offer combined MPG ratings that significantly reduce trips to the pump.

2. No Range Anxiety

Because hybrids rely on both gas and electric power, drivers don’t need to worry about running out of charge or finding a charger mid-trip.

3. Great for Used Car Shoppers

There’s a growing market for used hybrid cars offering proven reliability and lower upfront costs compared to new EVs.

4. Tax Incentives (for PHEVs)

Some plug-in hybrid models may still qualify for federal and state tax incentives, similar to electric vehicles.

Making the Right Choice

Your decision between a hybrid and an electric vehicle should align with your driving habits, environmental goals, and access to charging infrastructure. Consider the following:

• Daily Commute: Short commutes may favor EVs, while longer drives might be better suited for hybrids.
• Charging Access: Limited access to charging stations may make hybrids more practical.
• Environmental Impact: EVs offer zero emissions, making them the greener choice.

The 2025 Lexus LX700h is a luxury SUV that transcends city limits. Built upon a durable body-on-frame structure, this SUV confidently navigates rough terrains and smooth city streets with equal poise.

The Overtrail trim especially excels in challenging conditions, featuring specialized off-road equipment like locking differentials and all-terrain tires, ideal for adventure-seekers. Yet, every LX700h trim promises confident, comfortable handling, making this SUV an ideal choice whether you’re commuting in the city or exploring off the beaten path.

4. Luxurious Interior Tailored for Comfort

Inside the 2025 Lexus LX700h, you’ll find a meticulously crafted cabin designed with premium materials and thoughtful attention to every detail which ensure passengers enjoy a refined driving experience.

The Ultra Luxury trim takes comfort to a new level with indulgent features like massaging rear captain’s chairs, a right-rear power-retractable ottoman, and rear-seat entertainment, ensuring passengers travel in ultimate relaxation. The Luxury trim offers premium semi-aniline leather seating and a stunning 25-speaker Mark Levinson® Reference Surround Sound system, turning every journey into an immersive audio experience.

Connectivity is equally impressive. Owners can seamlessly integrate their smartphones with their vehicle using the convenient Lexus App, offering remote access to features like engine start, climate adjustments, vehicle health monitoring, and simplified service scheduling. It’s another example of Lexus thoughtfully enhancing vehicle ownership.

5. Commanding Design Meets Practicality

The 2025 Lexus LX700h makes a powerful visual statement through its bold design and sophisticated presence. At 200.5 inches in length, 78.3 inches in width, and standing 74.6 inches tall, this luxury SUV boasts dimensions that command attention on any road.

Each trim offers distinct wheel designs, from the rugged appeal of the Overtrail’s matte-finished alloys to the sophisticated polished appearance found in the Luxury trims. This range of styles allows drivers to select an aesthetic that matches their unique tastes and needs.

Practicality remains a cornerstone, too. The spacious interior accommodates passengers comfortably, and flexible seating arrangements provide adaptable cargo storage for everything from groceries to outdoor gear, ensuring every trip is as convenient as it is comfortable.

Discover Why the 2025 Lexus LX700h Stands Out

With its refined balance of hybrid technology, luxury, capability, and connectivity, the introduction of the 2025 Lexus LX700h revolutionizes the luxury SUV segment. This vehicle is designed not merely to meet expectations but to surpass them, delivering efficiency and comfort without sacrificing power or versatility.

If you’re in the market for an off-road-ready midsize truck, two standout options for 2025 are the Ford Ranger Raptor and the Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro. Both models bring serious capability, rugged styling, and advanced technology to the trail. Whether you’re planning weekend adventures or just want a truck that can handle more than the daily commute, these two pickups are worth a closer look. The Tacoma TRD Pro is available at Crown Toyota, part of the greater Ontario Auto Center.

Performance and Powertrain

The 2025 Ranger Raptor comes equipped with a 3.0L EcoBoost V6 engine that delivers 405 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque. It’s built for high-speed off-road use with FOX™ shocks, Watts-link rear suspension, and advanced drive modes like Baja and Rock Crawl.

The 2025 Tacoma TRD Pro, meanwhile, brings something new to the table: hybrid power. Its i-FORCE MAX 2.4L turbocharged hybrid powertrain produces 326 horsepower and an impressive 465 lb-ft of torque which outmuscles the Raptor on torque. The hybrid setup also contributes to better fuel efficiency and is estimated to reach 22/24/23 MPG (city/highway/combined), a noteworthy gain over traditional gas-only rivals.

Off-Road Features

Both trucks are built to tackle serious terrain, but they take different paths to get there. The Ranger Raptor includes features like FOX Racing Shocks, selectable drive modes (including Baja and Rock Crawl), and off-road tuned suspension. It also offers Trail Control™ and a 360-degree camera system for enhanced visibility.

The Tacoma TRD Pro, on the other hand, includes Multi-Terrain Select (MTS), Crawl Control (CRAWL), an electronically controlled locking rear differential, and a Stabilizer Disconnect Mechanism (SDM) to improve articulation on uneven terrain. These features come standard, meaning drivers don’t need to add costly options to unlock the Tacoma’s full trail potential.

Interior Comfort and Technology

Inside, the Ranger Raptor brings modern tech like a 12-inch touchscreen, wireless charging, and a Bang & Olufsen® sound system. You’ll also find a heated steering wheel and dual-zone climate control available.

The TRD Pro matches up well with ventilated SofTex®-trimmed seats, a TRD Pro-specific interior design, and a panoramic view monitor that gives selectable front, side, and rear views which is ideal for maneuvering through tight trails or rocky paths. While both trucks are nicely equipped, Toyota’s approach offers key premium features as standard on the TRD Pro, simplifying the decision-making process.

Utility and Everyday Versatility

The 2025 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro, equipped with the i-FORCE MAX 2.4L turbocharged hybrid powertrain, offers a maximum towing capacity of 6,000 pounds and a maximum payload capacity of 1,680 pounds. ​In comparison, the 2025 Ford Ranger Raptor has a towing capacity of 5,510 pounds and a payload capacity of 1,411 pounds. ​

Additionally, the Tacoma TRD Pro includes practical features such as a standard 2400W bed-mounted AC power supply, an integrated high-output air compressor, and a power open-and-close tailgate with kick sensors. These enhancements contribute to the Tacoma’s versatility for both off-road adventures and daily tasks.

Warranty Coverage and Long-Term Confidence

The Ford Ranger Raptor includes a standard bumper-to-bumper warranty for 3 years or 36,000 miles and a powertrain warranty for 5 years or 60,000 miles. The Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro, however, goes several steps further. In addition to similar basic and powertrain warranties, it offers hybrid-specific coverage that includes a 10-year/150,000-mile Hybrid Battery Warranty and a 96-month/100,000-mile Hybrid System Warranty. Plus, ToyotaCare adds no-cost scheduled maintenance and 24-hour roadside assistance for added peace of mind.

Which Truck is Right for You?

Both the 2025 Ford Ranger Raptor and the 2025 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro are serious off-road performers with unique strengths. The Raptor emphasizes raw power and rally-inspired speed, while the TRD Pro focuses on intelligent off-road tech, hybrid torque, and long-term value.

If you’re looking for a trail-dominating truck that blends rugged capability with efficiency and forward-thinking engineering, the Tacoma TRD Pro is hard to ignore. From its hybrid performance to its standard off-road hardware and advanced features, it’s built to perform right out of the box.

A New Standard in Luxury Electric SUV Interiors 

When stepping inside the all-new Volvo EX90, you’re immediately greeted with a serene, welcoming cabin that’s both minimalist and functional. True to Volvo’s signature Scandinavian style, the interior is thoughtfully designed with light, space, and comfort in mind. 

This isn’t just another new car—the EX90 is Volvo’s flagship electric model, and it showcases the automaker’s most advanced interior to date. 

Sustainability at the Core 

The Volvo EX90 interior emphasizes sustainability without sacrificing luxury. Volvo has long been a leader in environmentally conscious design, and the EX90 takes that commitment a step further. Meet the responsibly sourced premium interior, the EX90 uses a wool-blend upholstery or Nordico—a next-generation, leather-free material made from recycled PET bottles, bio-attributed materials from Swedish and Finnish forests, and corks from the wine industry. 

This shift not only reduces the car’s environmental impact, but also delivers a soft, upscale feel that complements the minimalist aesthetic. 

Interior Colors and Upholstery Options 

Personalization is key, and the Volvo EX90 interior is available in a variety of elegant tones to suit your unique taste. According to Volvo’s official design page and dealer insights, you can select from a refined palette of materials and colors, such as: 

• Cardamom Quilted Nordico in Charcoal/Cardamom Interior (Birch Decor) 

• Dawn Quilted Nordico in Dawn interior (Light Ash) 

• Charcoal Nordico (Birch Decor) 

• Tailored Wool Blend (Light Ash Decor) 

These options allow you to configure your EX90 interior to match your lifestyle and visual preferences, whether you lean toward darker, moodier palettes or light, open tones. 

Seating, Space & Comfort 

Designed to seat up to seven passengers, the Volvo EX90 is an ideal choice for growing families, daily commuters, and weekend adventurers alike. The second-row seats offer generous legroom and headroom, while the third-row seats are best suited for children or adults up to 5’7. 

All rows are easily accessible, and folding down the seats reveals an impressively spacious cargo area, perfect for road trips, sports gear, or even a large grocery run. If you’re car shopping for a versatile Electric SUV, the EX90 gives you premium space without sacrificing style. 

Cutting-Edge Technology at Your Fingertips 

Technology is central to the Volvo EX90 interior, with a focus on simplicity and integration. The highlight is the vertically mounted 14.5-inch center touchscreen, powered by Google. This infotainment system gives drivers access to Google Maps, Google Assistant, and the Google Play Store for seamless navigation and entertainment. 

You can also control most vehicle functions via the touchscreen or through Google Assistant commands, keeping your hands on the wheel and eyes on the road. 

The driver information display—a 9-inch digital instrument cluster which is customizable to your unique preference. Choose from map mode, traffic view or a minimalist view. 

Bowers & Wilkins Premium Sound System 

Music lovers will especially appreciate the available Bowers & Wilkins audio system in the Volvo EX90. This premium sound system includes: 

• 25 speakers 

• Dolby Atmos immersive sound technology 

• Integrated headrest speakers 

• Tailored acoustic performance based on cabin materials 

Whether you’re cruising through the city or heading out on a road trip, the EX90 delivers concert-quality sound right from your driver’s seat.  

Smart Storage & Everyday Utility 

One of the most functional features of the Volvo EX90 interior is its intelligent use of space. In addition to ample legroom and cargo capacity, the EX90 offers a range of smart storage solutions: 

• Deep center console with wireless phone charging 

• Door bins with room for water bottles and tablets 

• Fold-flat second and third rows 

• Underfloor rear storage 

• Front trunk storage 

Whether you’re loading up for a weekend getaway or just managing your daily commute, these features make it easier to stay organized.  

Advanced Climate Control 

Climate comfort is another area where the EX90 interior excels. The four-zone climate control system allows different passengers to set their ideal temperature. Volvo’s new air purification system helps remove pollutants, allergens, and even viruses from the cabin—an especially valuable feature for families or drivers with allergies. 

Safe Space: Volvo’s Signature Commitment 

Of course, safety is at the heart of every Volvo, and that extends to the Volvo EX90 interior. Volvo refers to the EX90 as a “software-defined vehicle,” meaning its safety systems are continually updated and optimized via over-the-air updates. 

Inside the cabin, features include: 

• Driver understanding system (monitors eye and head movements to detect distraction or fatigue) 

• Interior radar system (detects forgotten occupants or pets) with an option for the climate system to remain on while people or animals are detected. 

• 360-degree camera with 3D views 

• Advanced occupant protection design 

These features work together to protect all passengers and ensure peace of mind whether you’re driving across town or across the country. 

Perfect for Car Shoppers Looking for Comfort and Innovation 

As you explore options in the new car and Electric SUV market, the EX90 stands out for its combination of: 

• Premium, sustainable materials 

• Roomy and flexible interior design 

• Advanced driver and safety tech 

• Seamless Google-powered infotainment 

• Scandinavian aesthetics with a modern twist 

This makes the Volvo EX90 an excellent fit whether you’re upgrading from a used car, making your first jump into electric vehicles, or just looking for a family-friendly luxury SUV that does it all. 

Final Thoughts: The EX90 Interior Sets a New Standard 

In the competitive field of electric SUVs, the Volvo EX90 interior sets a new benchmark for modern luxury and thoughtful design. From the recycled, environmentally-friendly materials to the intuitive tech and spacious layout, every detail reflects Volvo’s commitment to safety, sustainability, and sophistication. 

If you’re ready to explore the EX90 interior in person, it’s a great time to visit Volvo Cars Ontario for a test drive and explore available inventory.

The 2026 Subaru Outback is expected to take this beloved SUV to the next generation. The Outback is known for its practicality, off-road capability, and standard all-wheel drive. Though Subaru hasn’t officially revealed the next model just yet, spy photos and industry reports are giving us a first glimpse at what may be coming. Whether you’re considering a new or used Subaru or simply curious about what’s next, here’s a look at what we know so far about the upcoming 2026 Subaru Outback, which will be available at Subaru of Ontario, part of the greater Ontario Auto Center.

A Fresh Design Direction for the 2026 Subaru Outback

Prototype images suggest that the 2026 Subaru Outback may take a step away from its traditional wagon roots. The new model appears taller, boxier, and more SUV-like in profile. Compared to the current generation, early test vehicles feature squared-off lines, an upright stance, and a more angular design overall.

Other potential design changes include a new grille shape, updated headlights with a possible split layout, and redesigned rear lighting that could include a full-width element. While still under heavy camouflage, the prototype reveals a clear shift toward a bolder, more rugged appearance.

Engine Options Expected to Continue

Subaru is known for consistency in its powertrain lineup, and the 2026 Subaru Outback is expected to continue offering its two current engine options: a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine and a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Both engines currently offer a good balance of fuel economy and performance, and both are paired with Subaru’s standard symmetrical all-wheel drive. No major changes have been confirmed to the transmission, though some sources have speculated about possible refinements to the current CVT system.

Will There Be a 2026 Subaru Outback Hybrid?

One of the most talked-about possibilities is the addition of a 2026 Subaru Outback hybrid. Subaru has already announced that the 2026 Forester will feature a hybrid powertrain, and several reports suggest the Outback may follow suit using a similar setup.

If introduced, the hybrid system could pair Subaru’s flat-four engine with an electric motor, helping improve fuel efficiency without sacrificing all-wheel drive. However, Subaru has not officially confirmed a hybrid Outback, so details remain speculative at this time.

Interior and Tech Updates in the 2026 Subaru Outback

The interior of the 2026 Subaru Outback is expected to receive a full redesign. Early images show a new horizontal touchscreen layout, potentially larger than the current 11.6-inch portrait display. A fully digital instrument cluster with customizable widgets is also rumored, providing more ways to view navigation, speed, and vehicle data.

Subaru may also reintroduce physical buttons for climate control, responding to customer feedback about usability. The infotainment system itself is expected to run more smoothly, possibly sharing software elements with Toyota’s newer systems.

Trim Levels and Off-Road Options

While Subaru hasn’t announced specific trims for the 2026 Subaru Outback, the existing structure is likely to continue. That means you can expect to see familiar options like Base, Premium, Onyx Edition, Limited, and Touring. The Wilderness trim, designed for off-road capability, is also expected to return with its enhanced ground clearance and rugged styling.

Anticipated Timing and Availability

The 2026 Subaru Outback is expected to debut sometime in mid-to-late 2025, with U.S. sales likely to begin by the end of the year. Pricing has not yet been announced.

Expect the 2026 Subaru Outback at Subaru of Ontario

While many details are still under wraps, the 2026 Subaru Outback is shaping up to be a meaningful update to one of Subaru’s most recognized nameplates. With a possible shift toward SUV styling, updated interior features, and the potential for a hybrid variant, the next-generation Outback could offer more versatility than ever before. As we wait for the official reveal, Subaru of Ontario will continue to offer the latest models and updates as they become available.
