Honda is offering a free upgrade to a seven-year, unlimited kilometre warranty across selected models until December 31. The Japanese manufacturer only recently announced its standard five-year/unlimited kilometre factory warranty, though this latest promotion - launched in early November - takes it one step further to match current industry leader, Kia.

The all-new 2018 Wey P8 has been revealed at the Guangzhou motor show, becoming the Chinese company's first plug-in hybrid SUV. Set to go on sale in its home market of China in the first quarter of 2018, the P8 combines a 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine with electric motors on each axle - making for combined outputs of 250kW and 520Nm. Drive is sent to all four wheels via a six-speed dual-clutch transmission.

Toyota’s chief engineer for the eighth-generation Camry program says he loves the idea of a proper performance-focused version, to capitalise on its much more dynamically-able new platform. Japan-based Masato Katsumata, who has spent time working with Toyota Europe but now runs a team of a few thousand, and who spent his youth doing rallies and driving an AE86, told us this week that there might just be a market for such a previously unlikely offering.

The 2018 Infiniti QX50 has been teased again, ahead of its reveal at the Los Angeles motor show later this month, where the company's new turbo 2.0-litre engine will also debut. Scheduled for a November 28 unveiling, the second-generation QX50 appears to bear a strong resemblance to the smaller QX30 crossover – at least, based on the shadowy teaser image released this week.

The 2019 Rolls-Royce Cullinan has been spied again this week, wearing a little less disguise and giving us a better look at the upcoming uber-luxe crossover. While the British marque refuses to associate the Cullinan with a pedestrian term like 'SUV', instead referring to it as a High-Sided Vehicle (HSV), the upcoming crossover looks very much like a member of the Rolls-Royce family.
