it should really make you more skeptical of any information about any new vehicle, because the reviewers literal future depends on giving every new vehicle a positive glowing review, even if the entire interior falls apart and starts on fire.

I certainly understand the cynicism here but it's not
always justified. If you check the reviews from the recent closed-track winter test of the upcoming Golf R, for example, several reviewers were quite harsh about the car's exclusive use of touch-sensitive and capacitive controls - a mistake Honda and Cadillac made a few years ago and subsequently reversed.
