It’s easy to forget that automakers often sell different vehicles overseas than they do in the U.S. But such is the case with Toyota and midsize trucks. While the Tacoma has been Toyota’s midsize pickup in North America and Mexico since 1995 — along with select other areas, such as Costa Rica, Bermuda, and New […]
Cars and movies have always been connected. This is probably because both the film and automotive industries developed around the same time. No matter the reason, some of the greatest movies have featured some amazing cars. While many of them are fanciful contraptions that you could never find at your local dealer, such as Speed […]
As many advantages as there are to modern electric vehicles — more horsepower and torque, a lower carbon footprint, and reduced operating costs, to name a few — it’s hard to beat the cool factor of classic cars. I know that when I set my sights on a third-generation Corvette Stingray, a Porsche 911, or […]
The steady abandonment of classic sedans and performance cars by the Big Three has been widely reported. It had reached the point where the Ford Mustang, Chevy Corvette, and a pair of Cadillac sedans were all America could hang its hat on. But suddenly, this trend is starting to reverse, and an unexpected name is […]
What do you get when you combine the raw excitement of motorsport with the festival-like atmosphere of a live concert? Just call it Gridlife. The nationwide racing and concert series recently kicked off its 12th season at the Carolina Motorsports Park, with more than 60 drivers competing across the two-day event. Things only heated up […]
If you’re shopping for a Jeep Cherokee for sale, you might want to know a bit of the history of this iconic model. It’s held a very specific place in the SUV world for decades, delivering many of Jeep’s unmistakable off-road traits while blending everyday perks. What started as a trail-ready model with hints of […]
With SUVs becoming more popular each year, cars almost seem passé. In fact, many brands have shifted their focus to SUV exclusivity. However, we’re not going to discuss the popularity of the SUV class. I’m here to discuss some of the performance-oriented cars that are either debuting soon or already turning heads. These cars are […]
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 […]
If you haven’t done the math yet, this year marks our nation’s 250th anniversary, which calls for a big celebration. Amongst the cookouts and fireworks on July 4th, it would be nice to see some star-spangled vehicles roaming around town, but alas, we may be disappointed. In fact, only two automakers have come out with […]
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 […]
