CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA, Calif. – A Lamborghini supercar pretty much seems like the exact opposite of a daily driver, but apparently, one in three sold are just that. Considering Lamborghini sold 29,700 Huracans, that’s nearly 10,000 owners who actually care about such things as interior space. Indeed, that was the most common request from owners as Lamborghini went about creating the next-generation “entry” model that would become the Temerario.

Since the widespread adoption of automatic transmissions, manuals have mostly been associated with performance cars. Slapping through the gears while winding out the engine is a thrilling experience, and nothing launches a 426 Street Hemi off the line like a four-speed. Now that trucks have become daily drivers and even luxury vehicles, they mostly have automatics, but manual transmissions used to be the standard in pickups.

When it comes to the outgoing Chevrolet Equinox, our opinions were... mixed. A perfectly fine compact SUV, it was nevertheless generally bland and featured a turbocharged powertrain with lag akin to turbo cars of a bygone era, only without the power to match. Well, now there is a new gas-fired Equinox for 2025 (there's also a fancy electric one).
