# [Year-In-Review: Top Car Reviews For 2022](https://www.carpro.com/blog/year-in-review-top-car-reviews-for-2022)

Each year at this time, I put out a list of the vehicles I reviewed that were the most enjoyable to me or left an impression on me.  I take into consideration all the things I talk about on the radio show:  Value, driving impressions, and overall appeal of the vehicle.

Even with the Microchip shortage, I was fortunate to have something new to review every week, sometimes two vehicles, and many reviewers across the country were shut out. 

I lost three weeks of reviews due to having Covid, I just didn’t want to risk the crew, or the people who deliver the cars to me.

Still, even with everything going on, I feel like I had a successful year of car reviews, and I will give you the highlights.

### Ford/Lincoln

Ford supplied me with the amazing F-150 Lightning all-electric truck and make no mistake, it was awesome.  I had the Ford Bronco Raptor, which was great, and I also had the Lincoln Navigator, which I always enjoy.

### GM

General Motors sent me the new Cadillac Escalade V, which was nothing short of amazing, and I had the XT6 3-row SUV which I enjoyed a lot.  I also had the beautiful GMC Yukon Denali Ultimate, which was stunning.

### Luxury SUVs

In luxury SUVs, I had the Mercedes-Benz EQS 580 all-electric, with an incredible interior.  I also had the totally new Lexus RX350 SUV, one I rave about regularly, and I had the Genesis GV60 Electric SUV, and I have to put the Jeep Grand Wagoneer Obsidian in this group.  The Lexus LX600 was also pretty incredible.

### Thrill Rides

 As always, I had a really fun week with the Dodge Challenger Hellcat Widebody, always a thrill!  Then, in another lightning-fast car, that is in this week's[ newsletter, ](https://www.carpro.com/subscribe-to-carpro-newsletter)I had the Mercedes-Benz AMG EQS electric sedan that had a massive amount of acceleration.

### Toyota

**It was Toyota, however, that stole the show** by sending me two of the new Tundras (one the hybrid version) and also the new Sequoia Capstone, a full-sized luxury SUV that is going to be a game changer if they can build enough of them.

In a year when I didn’t get the variety of vehicles I’d have liked, it was still a great year to be a car reviewer.
