The 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is a monster just ready to terrorize the European elite. It's a mid-engined American supercar with 1,064 horsepower from a twin-turbo 5.5-liter flat-plane V8 engine, and it's capable of a sub-10-second quarter mile. The first units haven't even hit the road yet, but already, John Hennessey is scheming about how to get even more power from America's wildest Corvette ever.

The Corvette’s iconic split window was only available for a few years during the C2 generation in the 1960s. Nonetheless, it’s one of the most iconic aspects of the sports car’s lineage. On the 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, it’s back, and The Drive found out why. While it is undoubtedly a callback to the C2, the ZR1’s new carbon fiber spine is really there to evacuate truly absurd amounts of heat from the ZR1’s 1,000+ horsepower V8 engine.

Four-cylinder engines still don't have the same cachet as their bigger 6-and-8-cylinder siblings, but the auto industry is in love with them. Using a turbocharged 4-pot is an easy way to reach traditional 6- and 8-cylinder power while simultaneously reducing emissions. Although the 4-cylinder might never reach the iconic status of a V8, there are some impressive examples out there.

You've now seen the 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, bringing all the cowbell. When the din calms down some, don't forget that there are three other celebrated trims in the Corvette range, and they've been given a light touch-up for the coming model year. Starting with tweaks for every trim — Stingray, E-Ray, and Z06 — Competition Yellow Tintcoat Metallic and Hysteria Purple Metallic (pictured) are new colors for the exterior colors palette, and Sebring Orange Tintcoat Metallic returns to the menu. The two tintcoats will cost extra, Chevy charging $995 for those finishes on the 2024 Corvette. Hysteria Purple is expected to be a freebie. And buyers will be able to get Velocity Yellow painted brake calipers — a nice perk for those who order cars in Competition Yellow.

For Ford fans, the performance years of the 1960s brought one advancement after another, and that time line begins with Ford’s assault at Indy in 1963 with its DOHC V-8 based on the small-block Windsor. Meanwhile, Ford’s “big-block”—the FE engine family—which began modestly in 1958 at 332-, 352-, and 360-cubic-inch displacements—had by the time of this story grown to 427 cubes and would power Ford to wins at Le Mans in 1966 and 1967. The subject of Eric Dahlquist’s original story, the 427-ci SOHC “Cammer,” was based on the FE and showed what could be done quickly within the warrens of Ford powertrain. At the time, it was unknown whether the engine would see production in factory-built cars (it wouldn’t), but for a short time the hemi-headed cammer would please crowds in A/FX cars built by Holman & Moody and Bill Stroppe Engineering before becoming a darling in the nitro-fueled ranks in front of drivers like Don Prudhomme, Connie Kalitta, Jack Chrisman, and Don Nicholson. —Johnny Hunkins.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, is still looking for a forever home for an adorable six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”

The refreshed 2025 Ford Explorer debuted back in early February bearing a number of changes including slight exterior styling tweaks, along with a host of interior revisions and the addition of the brand new Ford Digital Experience software. However, along with a pared-down trim level lineup that saw the deletion of the King Ranch trim, the 2025 Ford Explorer was also curiously missing any sort of hybrid powertrain option. Now, we know why that’s the case.
