This Is Polestar's Coolest Performance Car Yet
Polestar is bringing some heat to Goodwood. Alongside its updated 2 sedan and the new 3 and 4 crossovers, the electric automaker will also have a new concept on display at the Festival of Speed that previews a next-generation performance car. It's called the Polestar Concept BST—and it looks awesome.
Here's Your Chance to Own a Ex-Hertz Shelby GT500 Rental Car
Back in 2022, Ford and Hertz announced a deal that brought Shelby Mustangs into the rental company's fleet. Some of those cars were GT500s modified to a positively insane 900 horsepower. That fleet service is coming to an end, at which point the cars will go up for sale. Do you have the guts to buy a 900-hp Mustang rental car?
Weird: BMW 3 Series Recall Is Hunting for Deadly Takata Airbags Installed by Owners
BMW is issuing a recall for over 375,000 3 Series cars, all of which are over a decade old. The cars could have dangerous Takata airbags in their steering wheels, but but weirdly, the recall isn't targeting airbags installed by the factory. The automaker discovered that owners may have inadvertently installed an unauthorized Takata airbag if they had replaced the original steering wheel with the sport or M-sport option, and it’s issuing the recall out of an abundance of caution.
The BMW 5 Series Is Just Really Nice
In a world of overcomplication, the new BMW 5 Series keeps it simple. Unlike the all-electric i5 and the way-too-heavy M5, both complicated in their own right, the base BMW 530i doesn't have to try hard to be a great luxury sedan—it just is. At $58,895, you get a...
The New Lego Technic McLaren P1 Is Expensive but Worth It
The McLaren P1 is a remarkable machine, and now, it's a remarkable Lego kit. The iconic hybrid hypercar has been officially immortalized as a 1:8 scale Lego Technic model, and it looks fantastic. Such detail doesn't come cheap in the Lego world, however. It costs $449.00. For that price, you...
We're Driving the Hyundai Santa Fe. Ask Us Anything
The Hyundai Santa Fe has never been much of a looker—or much of anything, really. But Hyundai took the scalpel to its mid-size three-row for 2024 and redesigned it from the ground up. Now the SUV has a bolder, boxier design that actually makes it stand out in a crowded parking lot. It also has premium features that tick nearly every box for buyers in this segment.
The Ford Capri Is Back
After slapping the Puma badge on a crossover, Ford is doing it again with another fabled European nameplate. Say hello to the new Capri, which represents a striking change from the fastback coupe sold between the late 1960s and the mid-1980s. While the original model was marketed as the Euro Mustang, its modern-day equivalent is just another electric SUV.
The Ariel Nomad 2 Off-Roader Has the Focus ST's Engine
When it comes to off-roading toys, few do it better than the Ariel Motor Company. The small British company specializing in go-anywhere vehicles is transitioning the adventurous Nomad to its second generation. It's truly an all-new vehicle as only three parts have been carried over from its predecessor. By far the most notable change has occurred underneath the hood.
2025 Porsche 911 Review: A Hybrid Without Compromise
Porsche engineers are very proud of its hybrid 911. They have every right to be. Porsche's engineers insist the new 911 doesn’t feel like a hybrid. But how could it not? The new 911 Carrera GTS has an electric motor splined to the crankshaft of its flat-six, plus a massive electric turbocharger. It took me a little bit of time behind the wheel to figure out what they meant—Porsche’s new hybrid 911 does feel like a hybrid, just not like any hybrid before it.
2024 Goodwood Festival of Speed: Every New Car Debut
The Goodwood Festival of Speed has gotten bigger every year, evolving from a 'mere' festival for classic cars into a showcase for old and new products alike. It's like a car show with an exceptional setting and the opportunity to make engines of all kinds roar—without limits. The 2024...
Subaru Just Built 'The Quickest and Fastest WRX Ever'
Subaru is headed to the Goodwood Festival of Speed with a WRX unlike any other. This very black car is appropriately called Project Midnight, a nod to its full carbon fiber body that drastically reduces weight. Combined with a big horsepower increase under the hood, Subaru claims this is the quickest and fastest WRX race car to come from Subaru Motorsports USA.
For Sale: Rod Stewart's Incredibly Pretty Lamborghini Countach
This 1977 LP400 was in his collection for 25 years. Now it can be yours. Rod Stewart was a pretty flamboyant rock star back in the day, and his penchant for Lamborghinis is nearly as well-known as his music. This Countach, currently up for grabs on Bring a Trailer, is listed as the one he bought while on tour in Australia in 1977. It's an LP400 with an interesting story.
The Mazda CX-50 Finally Goes Hybrid With Help from Toyota
Meet the 2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid. Set to go on sale later this year, it expands the model’s number of available powertrains to three while giving customers an electrified option for the first time. The new hybrid utilizes Toyota's trick hybrid system, combining three electric motors, a battery, a naturally aspirated 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, and a continuously variable transmission.
Porsche Is Taking a Huge Risk
Porsche won't invest in a new generation of the Boxster and Cayman with combustion engines, nor will we see a new generation of the gas-powered Macan. That means the good folks in Zuffenhausen are ready to let three of its most popular gas cars ride into the proverbial sunset. The...
The 2025 Acura MDX Is Better Without the Trackpad
Acura is a curious brand that competes in a bloodbath arena. Names like BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Lexus form the hulking mass of its competition. Over the years, Acura hasn't always been in the same conversation as those true luxury brands. But sometimes Honda's luxury arm earns itself a spot as a segment leader.
Rimac's Newest Nevera Hypercar Is a Copper-Colored Limited Edition
It’s the first Nevera to wear matte paint, and it looks amazing. This year marks Rimac’s 15th year in business. The company is celebrating the occasion with a special-edition Nevera. The Croatian automaker announced Tuesday it will produce nine Nevera 15th Anniversary Edition cars, each costing €2.35 million ($2.54 million). The first car will debut at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, where it’ll complete the iconic hill climb.
Dead: Toyota Land Cruiser With V-8 Engine
When Toyota launched the Land Cruiser (300 Series) in 2021, it didn't give it a V-8 or a US visa for that matter. Then the 250 Series came along in 2023, and while it's available in North America, there's no engine with eight cylinders. Heck, there isn't even one with six. A third flavor of the Land Cruiser is available in some markets. It used to have a big ol' V-8, but not anymore.
The Toyota GR Corolla Will Almost Definitely Get an Automatic
The Toyota GR Corolla is one of the best hot hatchbacks on the market. It has a turbocharged three-cylinder engine with 300 horsepower, all-wheel drive, and a snappy six-speed manual transmission. But it might not be manual-only for much longer. Leaked documents show what appears to be an eight-speed automatic...
The 2024 BMW M3 CS Is Stupid Fast
I can't fall in love with the BMW M3. From the base, manual car all the way to the xDrive Competition, none has stolen my heart. It’s very quick and nice to drive, but not terribly memorable. The M3 CS is different. Through a handful of mechanical and cosmetic...
