This 23,000-Mile Saturn Ion Redline Might be the Cleanest Example Left

The Saturn Ion Redline is one of those cars that you wonder why they built. The quad-coupe Ion itself, complete with an unusual set of doors and polarizing styling, is a strange car to begin with. Then, somebody decided it was a good idea to add a supercharger, a limited-slip…

Miata vs Lamborghini: This Drag Race Is Way Closer Than You Think

I had an interesting realization during Motor1's inaugural Cool Car Cup test—you can floor the throttle in a Lamborghini Revuelto without waking up its monster V-12. The Revuelto is a hybrid, with a motor for each front wheel, and another motor attached to the transmission. In its Città (city) mode, you get…

I am a firm believer that when humanity slips the surly bonds of Earth and heads into the stars, and our accomplishments are cataloged, the Honda Accord will fall somewhere between "electric refrigeration" and "the flu vaccine." I've owned two generations of Accords and reviewed several others, and every single one…

I Want to Hate the Subaru WRX tS, But I Can't: Review

The WRX tS embodies my distaste for modern Subaru. The tS is not a bad car to drive—it is, in fact, a very nice car. But it’s symbolic of what’s missing in the WRX lineup: a full-blown STI model.

Fiat won’t be building any new 500es anytime soon. Stellantis has extended the shutdown at the factory where it assembles the little electric vehicle until January 20. The automaker had announced late last month that it would pause production at its Mirafiori factory in Italy until January 5.

How Will Cupra Succeed in the US?

According to Cupra’s CEO, the brand has an advantage that other automakers within the Volkswagen Group don’t: It lacks history. Audi, Bentley, Lamborghini, Porsche, and even Volkswagen have deep heritages and intricate traditions baked into their identities, which come with certain expectations.

The Worst Car Name in the Business Might Soon Be Retired

When Toyota announced the bZ4X back in 2022, more than a few people scratched their heads at the name. It sounds like a random designation for a stormtrooper from Star Wars. But there is a method to the madness. At its launch, Toyota explained that bZ stands for "beyond zero"…

The 2025 Nissan Murano Isn't Bad, It's Just Disappointing: First Drive Review

I was never overly fond of the Nissan Murano, but I always rooted for it. As one of the pioneers of the modern crossover era, its odd first-generation styling ensured it never blended into the background. And lest we forget the Murano CrossCab, the funky convertible SUV introduced during the…

This Nissan Leaf Hides a 13,000-RPM Superbike Engine. Meet the Man Who Built It

Hybrid sports cars are a great idea. It doesn’t take much to convince someone that a Lamborghini Revuelto, for example, is an excellent vehicle. Unfortunately, most of these high-end hybrid performance cars are unattainable to you and me; The Revuelto costs $604,000.

The Kia Syros Is a Tiny Car With a Huge Personality

Because automakers apparently can never have too many crossovers, Kia is launching the Syros in India. It sits above the Sonet in the local portfolio and looks pretty much like an EV9 toy car. However, beyond some styling cues, the two have nothing in common. For starters, the newcomer is…
