For quite some time now, the Japanese dual-sport market over 300cc has been a bit of a Jurassic Park; all of the options were either full-on adventure bikes or had a design that has remained unchanged since before smartphones were invented. The only exception was the Honda CRF450RL, but since it is basically a street-legal […]
When the redesigned 2025 Porsche 911 was unveiled earlier this year, it ruffled some feathers. Like almost every high-end sports car these days (and many cars that are neither high-end nor sporty), the new 911 introduced a hybrid powertrain and dropped the manual transmission. While the result was certainly fast, it was a double slap […]
Ever since the death of the legendary R6, Yamaha fans have been begging for another middleweight sportbike from the venerable triple-tuning fork marque. The R7 was revealed shortly after the R6’s demise, but many felt it was lacking as a successor to the R6, mostly because it was never intended to be. The R7 was […]
The Corvette has always hit well above its weight class, but the new ZR1 takes this to a completely unprecedented level. With a whopping 1064 hp from its new LT7 V8, the new ZR1 is an apex predator whose diet will certainly consist of many Italian horses and bulls. GM performance was seemingly given the […]
BMW has a hard-won reputation for being the most performance-focused of the luxury brands, but these days, it seems to be rapidly losing the plot. Odd aesthetic choices such as the pig snouts on the M3 and M4 can be accepted if the car performs well, but when the M cars start resembling pigs in […]
The newest generation of WRX hasn’t exactly been the most well-received entry in Subaru’s long line of affordable rally-inspired compacts. Whether you’re still stuck on the black plastic cladding or you’re mourning the loss of the high-performance STI variant, this generation has been met with divisive opinions overall. I personally have grown to not mind […]
The moment we have all been waiting for is here: after 15 years on the market, the venerable Toyota 4Runner has finally received a full redesign. Redesigning an icon is never easy, but Toyota knocked this one out of the park. Based on the same TNGA-F body-on-frame platform as the Tundra, Tacoma, and Land Cruiser, […]
The next-generation Dodge Charger has been officially revealed, and in a surprise announcement, it’s getting a gasoline engine option in addition to an all-electric powertrain. While only the electric Charger Daytona will be available for the 2024 model year, next year we will see the gasoline-powered Charger Sixpack, with the––you guessed it––six-cylinder Hurricane engine under […]
I don’t know who hurt KTM, but you better be proud of yourself, as the Austrian bike maker looked at the 1290 Super Duke…and decided that it needed more power. You know, the 1290 Super Duke, one of the most powerful naked bikes on the market, known for putting the fear of god into unsuspecting […]
With the kickoff of EICMA, it’s that wonderful time of year when we get to see all the goodies that bikemakers have in store for us for next year. Suzuki has decided to enter the ever-growing street-friendly sportbike market with the all-new 2024 Suzuki GSX-8R. Based off of the excellent Suzuki GSX-8S that was introduced […]
A new bike is making waves in the supermoto scene, and it has everyone talking. It’s got a 659cc single-cylinder engine, a curb weight of 333 lbs, an oil change interval of 9,000 miles, and a valve clearance service due at 18,000 miles, and it’s a… Ducati?! That’s right, throw away everything you thought you […]
Alright, chooms, Yamaha has just revealed the perfect bike to help you outrun Arasaka. The redesigned 2024 Yamaha MT-09 is the perfect set of preem wheels for the edgerunner who wants to leave the corpos in the dust and make sure their gig goes off without a hitch. So, lemme fill you in on all […]
Since the launch of the seventh-generation Mustang for 2024, Ford has been rolling out exciting new variants of its classic pony car. Not only was the Mach 1 replaced by the new Dark Horse with its 500 hp Coyote V8, but Ford has also added a veritable stable of dedicated race cars based on the […]
Kawasaki is entering the small displacement cruiser market with the 2024 Eliminator. In the past, the Eliminator name was used by large-displacement drag bikes, but the new model features a lightweight frame and small parallel-twin engine to provide riders with an easy-to-manage cruiser for any endeavor. The heart of the 2024 Eliminator is a 451cc […]
After a long four-year wait, we finally have a modernized 600(ish) supersport motorcycle in the form of the 2024 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R. Gone are the days of paying modern supersport prices for a bike that was designed before smartphones were popularized (looking at you, Honda and Suzuki). But even that is better than Yamaha, which […]
The battle for the best midsize off-roader just keeps heating up. Briefly overshadowed by the announcement of the 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor and 2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro, Chevy has muscled its way back into the spotlight with the all-new 2024 Colorado ZR2 Bison. The Bison has been a favorite of off-road enthusiasts since it […]
Midsize trucks have undergone a revolution lately. What was once a segment filled with affordable city trucks designed to handle odd jobs economically is now dominated by models like the Jeep Gladiator Mojave, Chevy Colorado ZR2, GMC Canyon AT4X, and Ford Ranger Raptor. One of the very first trucks to cater to these changing tastes […]
First, there was the Ford F-150 Raptor. Then there was the Bronco Raptor. Now there is the Ranger Raptor. While it might seem like Ford is well on the path to diluting the Raptor name with ever smaller, less powerful, and less aggressive models (Maverick Raptor, when?), the latest member of the Raptor family is […]
