<description><![CDATA[Since I&#039;m always checking out e-bikes, I tend to get lots of ads for all sorts of electrified two-wheelers. One that caught my eye was the Coswheel CT20S.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[By now, you&#039;ve picked up on the fact that I&#039;m not the biggest car guy in the world, but I do love myself a quirky and downright attention-grabbing machine. That&#039;s exactly what we got our hands on and tested: the Microlino, but the fresher 2.0, as it&#039;s being called. Time to see what the BMW Isetta-inspired bubble car has to offer.

Back in 1954, BMW was said to be on the verge of extinction, so they took a gamble on a ve... (<a href="https://www.autoevolution.com/news/driven-microlino-20-the-bmw-isetta-inspired-ev-drops-its-bubble-car-pizzazz-on-us-236380.html">continue reading...</a>)]]></content:encoded>

<title>Driven: 2024 Nissan Qashqai – More Than Just a Pretty Face</title>
<link>https://www.autoevolution.com/news/driven-2024-nissan-qashqai-more-than-just-a-pretty-face-236444.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[The Qashqai practically pioneered the compact crossover segment, and since 2006, it has sat at the very top of that corner of the market. The popular family car has sold over 4 million times, and 350,000 of those sales are accounted for by the third generation model since 2021. It&#039;s little wonder that Australians would often call it the &#039;Cash cow.&#039; Clearly, the Qashqai is an important car for Nissan.
