Don't You Forget About the 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander: First Drive Review

Rolling up the last mile on Hollywood’s infamous Sunset Strip in the 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander, an SEL model equipped with all-wheel drive and a Premium Package, the immortal words of the classic Simple Minds tune reverberated through my head.

Toyota Sells Another $10,000 Car In Japan

For the fifth consecutive year, Toyota is the biggest car maker in the world. As you can imagine, it takes more than selling Corollas and RAVs to grab and keep the sales crown for so long to the detriment of the VW Group. Toyota's massive product portfolio includes some dirt-cheap…

Mercedes Admits Huge Screens Are Not Luxury

For decades, we defined luxury cars by the quality of the materials and how well they were screwed together. The engines were also a major selling point since the large-displacement ones were typically reserved for the flagship models. In 2025, automakers playing in the upper echelon try to one-up each…

This Ferrari-Powered Lotus Is My New Favorite Hillclimb Car

Hillclimb cars are the coolest. Usually, hillclimb events have no restrictions on power or aerodynamics, so builders chuck as much downforce and boost into their cars as physically possible. That results in some truly wacky machinery, like this Ferrari-powered Lotus that looks like more wing than car.

This Dodge Ramcharger Is the Best Vintage Cop Car

If you lived around Eureka, California in the early 1980s, you might have caught sight of a Dodge Ramcharger decked out in the California Highway Patrol livery sitting alongside the road.

Drop Everything and Listen to This V-10 Formula 1 Car

FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem said earlier this week that Formula 1 should consider switching back to V-10 power, seeing as how the series will soon run solely on synthetic fuels. We couldn't agree with him more. The V-10 era of F1 brought some of the best-sounding cars on the planet,…

If You Want to Use One Tire All Year, It Should Be This One

If you live in a place where it snows, you should have a set of winter tires for your car. But we understand if you don't want to go to the tire shop twice a year to get your tires swapped out. That's what all-weather tires are for. Unlike all-seasons,…

We Went to Japan's SEMA. It Was Incredible

Tokyo Auto Salon is one of the great wonders of the car world. It’s the land of the Japanese performance aftermarket, the Mecca of tuners like HKS, RE Amemiya, and Top Secret. And it’s been on my bucket list since I started reading blogs in the early 2010s.

Dead: Volvo's Best Wagon

Once upon a time, Polester was Volvo's plucky performance division. Before the brand split off to do its own thing, it debuted the much-loved V60 Polestar in 2017, injecting some much-needed life into Volvo's tried-and-true station wagon. In 2020, the duo followed up on that success with an even more…

The Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing Still Kicks Ass: Review

I won't further lament the slow death of the V-8. I won't bemoan the fact that there are fewer than 30 manual cars left on the US market. Hell, I won't even bring up the fact that Ford, Chevrolet, and Dodge have all but given up on the four-door muscle…

Peugeot Let Designers Run Wild. This Is What They Came Up With

Automotive design is an interesting art. The radical styling ideas first sketched on paper rarely end up on the production car as imagined. However, automakers sometimes give their designers freedom to go wild, giving way to incredibly cool results. The creative minds at Peugeot have done just that, remaking the…

BMW's New EVs Will Beat Everyone on Range

We knew BMW's upcoming Neue Klasse models would be efficient, we just didn't know how efficient. Today, the German automaker officially detailed its next-generation EV platform—and the numbers are impressive.

Mercedes Is Still Planning a Junior G-Class

The G-Class is a veritable icon within the vast Mercedes-Benz lineup. It makes us wonder why the Stuttgart-based automaker has yet to capitalize on the off-roader's brand power by launching derivatives. There have been special editions like the Maybach G650 Landaulet, 4x4 Squared, and the bonkers 6x6, but not permanent…

Audi Admits Its Interior Quality Is Worse Now

Since the mid-1990s, Audi has stood for uncompromising quality in workmanship and materials like no other brand. This laid the foundation for its rise from a somewhat brittle-looking corporate mouse to a premium manufacturer on par with Mercedes and BMW in terms of image. Recently, however, this nimbus has begun…

Mercedes Is Keeping the V-8 and V-12 Engines

Mercedes held its annual results conference this week, outlining how it intends to become "leaner, faster, and stronger." The theme of its new roadmap is "mastering transformation," and it's not just marketing fluff. The three-pointed star has a busy agenda, which includes planning electric C-Class, GLC, and E-Class models and…

Here's Proof the GV60 Magma Might Actually Be Good

The Genesis GV60 will be the first "Magma" model to join the brand's expanding lineup. The automaker introduced the performance line nearly a year ago, quickly tempering expectations that Magma would be as hardcore as BMW M or Mercedes-AMG. Since then, we've been wondering how it'll compare to other performance…

What's New In the Dodge Lineup for 2025?

Dodge isn't the same company it used to be. With the Challenger being discontinued and the Charger ditching its V-8, the muscle car maker's lineup looks a lot different for the 2025 model year. But that's not to say there aren't still interesting vehicles to choose from.

I Dare You To Buy This Viper-Powered Jeep Wrangler Death Trap

The last thing a 2006 Jeep Wrangler needs is more power. This one has a lot more power, courtesy of an 8.3-liter V-10 from a Dodge Viper. Know that this Jeep originally had a 4.0-liter straight-six with 190 horsepower; now, it has something like 500. If this sounds like a good time…

Who Is the New Mini Cooper For? Review

The modern Mini Cooper has always appealed to a certain type of person. Small yet premium, sporty not shouty, and with a strong whiff of manufactured kitsch, BMW’s Oxford-built hatchback aims for yuppies but lands more with older folks as a third or fourth car. While the newest iteration tries…

Tariffs Could Force Mercedes to Build C- or E-Class in the US

US President Donald Trump is ready to impose a 25-percent tariff on all imported cars, and automakers are preparing for the worst.
