The automotive industry is constantly evolving. It needs ideas from young designers and engineers to deliver new and interesting products.

BMW has a habit of bringing beautiful things to the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este in Lake Como, Italy. Last year, it was the Skytop, a stunning two-seat convertible destined for a limited-production run. The year before that, it was the Concept Touring Coupe, a gorgeous two-door wagon that, sadly, never…

Volvo builds the S60 and the EX90 in the United States. But the company has to import the rest of its lineup from overseas. That could be a problem, as President Donald Trump has placed a 25-percent tariff on imported vehicles, and threatened today to implement a straight 50 percent duty on all…

The Kia Carnival is proof that affordable utility isn't dead. America's cheapest minivan returns for 2026, now starting at $38,425 including destination. That's over $2,000 less than the nearest competitor. The Carnival Hybrid, meanwhile, starts at $42,425.

The former filmmaker and Ferrari collector turned entrepreneur launched Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus in 2004 with dreams of competing in the FIA World Endurance Championship. In…

I remember being fairly skeptical when first hearing the MkV Toyota Supra would use a BMW straight-six. Obviously, BMW was the keeper of the straight-six flame when other automakers embraced V-6s, but in supplying Toyota, its turbo ‘six would have big shoes to fill. The MkIV Supra’s 2JZ twin-turbo engine…

Somewhere in the UK, a lady had a great idea. She wanted a classic MG to tool around in, but didn’t want the one-on-every-corner MGB that most go for. Nor did she want any possibility of breaking down. So she went to Abingdon’s Frontline Cars, who make MGBs bulletproof (and…

Nissan is undertaking a massive cost-cutting agenda after losing billions in recent years due to sales falling short of investments. While the new product roadmap centers on the usual suspects, crossovers and SUVs, there’s still hope for fun cars. The Z is soldiering on and could one day be joined…

Right off the bat, it’s highly unlikely that Toyota will shoehorn a V-8 engine into the new RAV4.
