Aston Martin celebrated its 110th anniversary last year. While the company has had its struggles, that number alone is evidence of a lasting, influential brand with real staying power. Another figure? An incredible 90 percent of Aston Martins are still on the road. The astonishing statistic, shared by head of...

Aston Martin Says 90 Percent of Its Cars Are Still on the Road

In case you haven't noticed, modern vehicles are packed with features and technology. Even the Nissan Versa—the cheapest new car in the United States—has a 7-inch touchscreen with voice controls and buttons all over the steering wheel. Step up to something like the Ariya and there's even more to suss out. The basics are usually straightforward, but figuring out all the tech can be intimidating. Nissan wants to change that.

It's been seven days since the cyberattacks on CDK Global forced the company to shut down its software suite used by approximately 15,000 dealerships in the United States and Canada. To say it hasn't been pretty is an understatement—the cloud-based software manages everything from parts and service work to new car sales, finance, vehicle registrations, and even company payroll. And it may not be back up until July.

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.

Hyundai is making a name for itself with its N performance brand. The Elantra N packs a lot of punch for the price, nipping at the back bumper of cars like the Honda Civic Type R, which is more powerful but also more expensive. The Elantra N is a surprising offering with enough oomph to worry Type R owners.

The Chevrolet Corvette you can buy today is nothing like the first-generation model. The car has come a long way since its humble beginnings in the early 1950s, but the original remains an icon and we hate to see it left to collect dust—like the example above. Thankfully, a thorough wash and detail help restore the sports car to its near-original glory.

Pimp My Ride introduced kids and teens to cars who didn't religiously watch TNN's PowerBlock programming. The show was a brief blip in the mid-2000s reality TV craze, running for six seasons over three years on MTV before ending in 2007. It took contestants's cars and added wild modifications that often had no right being in an automobile, and it's back, sort of, on Netflix with a new name.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great.

Rezvani isn't known for conservative styling on its bonkers military-themed vehicles, and we're hesitant to give this latest offering such a label. It's the Rezvani Arsenal, and if you parked it next to a Cadillac Escalade, it would be radically aggressive. Next to the Rezvani Vengeance, however, it's downright tame.
