There’s a good chance the average person, and even the average car enthusiast, hasn’t heard of Brabus. It’s certainly not the biggest automotive name, and its U.S. presence is a small fraction of other high-end brands. But serious gearheads know and revere this German automotive tuner, which, since its founding in 1977, has shipped vehicles […]
A little customization can go a long way toward improving your daily driving experience. While most mass-market models offer plenty of trims, optional add-ons, and equipment packages, these vehicles are no match for the one-of-a-kind automotive creations you’ll find in the luxury segment. Just look at the Land Rover Range Rover and Range Rover Sport […]
Some cars are background noise, others are main characters, and then there’s the Subaru Baja. The Baja feels less like a vehicle and more like a deleted scene from a cult movie that somehow became canon anyway. If it were a character, it wouldn’t be the predictable hero, but the oddball everyone underestimates and then […]
If you spend a lot of time reading about cars on the internet, as we do, you’ve probably noticed a slew of overwhelmingly positive publicity about the Audi Concept C EV Prototype. This happens whenever automakers come up with something truly innovative and earth-shaking. Right now, our information about the Audi Concept C is sparse. […]
Along with brands such as Mitsubishi, Toyota, and Ford, the Subaru name has long been synonymous with rally racing. First popularized in Europe, this unique form of point-to-point racing requires vehicles that work equally well on paved, dirt, and even snowy surfaces. It was a natural fit for Subaru, and with numerous championships and wins, […]
By some estimates, nearly 99% of concept cars never evolve into full production models. But they still serve an important purpose in the design, development, and marketing process. A concept car allows an automaker to test new technology, generate buzz, and gauge the market’s interest in forthcoming products. That’s especially true of the new N […]
When a car brand collaborates with a non-car brand, it’s about more than just swapping iconic logos. It’s about capturing a specific lifestyle through a cohesive combination. From the rugged appeal of a military-style SUV to a refined cabin-on-wheels perfect for the wilderness of New England, car collaborations have become a successful corner of automotive […]
Most consumers know Mercedes-Benz as a luxury automaker that produces lavish consumer vehicles with elegant styling and comfortable interiors. But those with more familiarity with the company know that icons like the S-Class are just the tip of the iceberg. Under the usual lineup of cars and SUVs designed for everyday drivers, you’ll find the […]
There are certain brands and models in the world of automotive that feel like they’re stuck inside the pixels of a TV screen or the pages of a magazine. They’re untouchable, even sacred. Caterham Cars is one of those. For decades, Caterham has been standing on Lotus founder Colin Chapman’s philosophy of “Simplify, then add […]
Are you one of those people who hate feeling locked into driving at a crawl, even when there’s nothing but smooth open roads in front of you? At least one Arizona legislator is apparently feeling the same way. On December 15, 2025, Rep. Nick Kupper introduced a bill dubbed the Reasonable and Prudent Interstate Driving […]
Naming a vehicle after a natural wonder or national park is nothing new in the automotive world. From Maine’s Acadia National Park to Alaska’s Denali National Park and everywhere in between, these names literally span the country from sea to shining sea. However, the trend isn’t limited to model names; American locales lend their names […]
Once almost as ubiquitous in America as apple pie, rock and roll, and baseball, there was a time when the nation was embroiled in a passionate love affair with the convertible. Convertibles were available from every major American auto manufacturer, and even the most seemingly practical models had convertible versions that offered the free-spirited joy […]
There are certain advantages that come with U.S. citizenship, but the Toyota Hilux isn’t one of them. The legendary pickup has been one of the world’s most popular trucks ever since it first hit the market in 1968, but Americans haven’t been able to access the midsize maestro ever since the U.S. version, creatively dubbed […]
Toyota’s new GR GT is a supercar for the modern age. Slated to debut in 2027, the GR GT is a study in engineering acumen with a hybrid design that promises a sub-3.0-second zero-to-60-mph time and a top speed approaching 200 mph. Designed as a road-legal version of the full-on race car that is the […]
When American bard William Martin Joel said, “Only the good die young,” he certainly wasn’t referring to the Ford Mustang. While many of the Mustang’s early muscle car contemporaries burned bright upon their debut, they flamed out just as quickly as changing regulations, tastes, and technology rocked the sporty segment. The Mustang is a notable […]
Super Bowl LX was a subdued affair, both in terms of offensive production and the number of advertisements on the part of the auto industry. If you were in the market for car insurance, a way to build a new website, or a fast, easy way to lose money through a sports betting app, Super […]
If you’ve already started exploring for a Hyundai Santa Cruz for sale, you probably noticed that some folks call it a compact truck, while others call it a Sport Adventure Vehicle (SAV). Which is it?

Months after its initial reveal, people are still buzzing about the Mahindra BE 6 Batman Edition, an all-electric SUV with a superhero twist. Trumpeted as the “first commercially available Batman-inspired SUV,” it pays homage to the Caped Crusader and his famous Batmobile. By reimagining the Batmobile as a compact EV, this vehicle offers a unique […]
Most dealership lots look the same until you spot the outlier. It could be a dusty Cadillac parked between two vanilla SUVs, a coupe with yellow Brembos hiding in the back row, or a short-run Ford wearing factory 20s, each with a “for sale” tag nobody’s noticed yet. That’s the split-second enthusiasts live for, spotting […]
There’s no adrenaline rush quite like what racing provides. Whether it’s banging doors on a quarter-mile oval, hitting 180 mph on a superspeedway, or hanging onto the handlebars as your motorcycle careens through the esses, racing is a thrilling, rewarding sport. But for anyone who wants to go from the couch to the cockpit, it […]
