Autocade is an inter­national car cyclo­pædia that’s geo­­graphically unbiased, carefully edited for enthu­­siasts and media who want a quick, accurate reference. There is a greater emphasis on models produced after 1970.

Inside Autocade

BMW 6er Gran Turismo

2017 BMW 640i GT.jpg

BMW 630d GT/BMW 630i GT/BMW 640d GT/BMW 640i GT (G32). 2017 to date (prod. n/a). 5-door saloon. F/R, F/A, 1993 cm³ (I4 DOHC), 2993 cm³ diesel, 2998 cm³ petrol (I6 DOHC). Ungainly 5er GT becomes a sleeker 6er, though its mission—of being a high-seated and comfortable five-door “crossover” continued. Spacious and better looking than its predecessor, but hardly sporting. Sport mode gave acceptable handling; Comfort Plus allowed GT to float. Lighter steering than regular 6er. Platform related to the BMW 7er-Reihe (G11) but rear suspension taken from current 5er.


Manufacturing location: Dingolfing, Germany

Marque: BMW | Model: BMW 6er-Reihe | Predecessor: BMW 5er Gran Turismo


Mercury Monterey (1969–72)

1972 Mercury Monterey Custom 2-door hardtop.jpg

Mercury Monterey. 1969–72 (prod. n/a). 4-door sedan, 2-door coupé, 4-door hardtop sedan, 5-door wagon, 2-door convertible. F/R, 351, 400, 429, 460 in³ (V8 OHV). In the US, Mercury’s entry-level full-size line, with exposed headlights and more basic trim compared with the Mercury Marquis (1969–72) flagship. Similar remarks to Marquis apply: a reasonably reliable line among its competitors, with ride and handling softened as the 1970s began. Convertibles ran through 1970 model year.


Manufacturing locations: Hazelwood, Missouri, USA; Pico Rivera, California, USA; Hapeville, Georgia, USA

Marque: Mercury | Model: Mercury Monterey | Predecessors: Mercury Monterey (1965–8), Mercury Montclair (1965–8), Mercury Commuter (1965–8) | Successor: Mercury Monterey (1973–4)

q.v. Mercury Marquis (1969–72), Mercury Meteor (1969–72)


Honda Pilot (YF5)

2019 Honda Pilot.jpg

Honda Pilot (YF5). 2016 to date (prod. n/a). 5-door SUV. F/F, F/A, 3471 cm³ (V6 OHC). Third-generation Pilot, made in US for North American markets. Mid-sized by US standards. Roomy inside and reasonably economical. Comfortable ride, and striking a good balance between that and handling. Considered a deoendable, well thought out crossover in the US. Facelift for 2019 model year.


Manufacturing location: Lincoln, Alabama, USA

Marque: Honda | Model: Honda Pilot | Predecessor: Honda Pilot (YF3)
