Remember the 2009 Galibier? The ultra-luxury grand tourer was axed because VW Group reportedly didn't like the design. Rumor has it that the five-door liftback would've been too bulbous in production guise. Instead, the Veyron's replacement was prioritized, thus the Chiron was born in 2016. Fast forward to 2024, Bugatti isn't ruling out launching a car with a sixteen-cylinder engine mounted in front of the driver.

Bugatti Might Cram a V-16 Into a Front-Engined Hypercar

The Bugatti Tourbillon is making the headlines for all the right reasons by combining jaw-dropping technical specifications with gorgeous styling. It’s also supremely quick, impossibly expensive, and a rare breed by having a limited production run. But you knew that already, right? Here's something interesting that you might not have noticed–an interior quirk shared with an old Citroën model.

The New Bugatti Has Something in Common with an Old Citroen

The Bugatti Tourbillon costs over $4 million. Just by looking at it, you can tell why. The instrument cluster is akin to finely tuned mechanical clockwork, the carbon fiber bodywork offers typical Bugatti beauty, and under the skin, the drivetrain completes the picture. Its 8.3-liter naturally-aspirated V-16 produces 1,000 horsepower, more than most supercars. Its electric drivetrain produces 800 hp, more than most performance EVs.

Bad news: There's one less Koenigsegg Jesko in the world. One example burned to the ground over the weekend in Greece during a road rally last week, turning the multi-million-dollar hypercar into an unrecognizable husk on the highway. Fortunately, nobody was injured. But Koenigsegg has now asked Jesko owners to park their cars until the cause is determined.

In 2017, Mitsubishi revived its iconic Eclipse nameplate and promptly slapped it on the backside of an SUV. Sad. Now we're seeing new trademark filings for other iconic Mitsubishi names, like Montero and Lancer Sportback, that could also end up on unappealing models. The former Montero nameplate hasn't been around...

It's been exactly three months since Jeep outed the 2024 Wrangler Rubicon 392 Final Edition, saying "goodbye to the grr-eight one." As it turns out, that was only goodbye for now because the V-8 off-roader makes a surprise return for 2025. This unexpected announcement is unlikely to sit well with those who thought they were buying a limited-production vehicle.

Jeep Breaks Promise, Brings Back the Hemi Wrangler

The Ford Mk1 Escort was known for tearing up rally stages throughout the late 1960s and early 1970s, with a production version built between 1967 and 1975. The Ford RS200 then became one of the most iconic rally cars of Group B in the 1980s, but production of the road-going model only lasted two years, between 1984 and 1986.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

Just one problem; While E-fuels are already in production, it'll be ages before...

E-Fuels Can't Work in Cars Until They Work in Planes. Here's Why

The machine that became the supercharger predates the practical internal-combustion car by decades. Created by brothers Philander and Francis Roots, the Roots Blower was born out of an attempt to make a better water wheel. The brothers developed a mechanism with two lobed impellers meshed together and spun in opposite directions. When testing the machine, so the story goes, it blew someone’s hat off and they realized they’d accidentally made something very good at moving air.

If you're planning to take your car to a race track, odds are you're probably considering some upgrades to prepare yourself. Better brake pads and high-temp fluid are good ideas, but you might want to hold off on a set of ultra-sticky track day tires, especially if you're new to driving on track.
