Currently, Ford only sells one EcoBoost powerplant in crate engine form – the turbocharged 2.3L I-4 EcoBoost, which is available in a wide variety of Blue Oval vehicles these days, including the Ford Ranger, Ford Bronco, Ford Mustang, Lincoln Corsair, and Ford Explorer. As Ford Authority reported nearly two years ago, the automaker isn’t planning on expanding that list either, even though it offers a broad array of V8 crate engines in the Ford Performance catalog. However, it has now added a trio of 2.3L I-4 EcoBoost builder kits to that same catalog.

No vehicle has gained a following quite like pickups have these past few decades. It's almost a part of the American dream to want an F-150 in your driveway, but how often do you see full-sized pickups used as they should be in the real world? And aren't prices getting out of hand when a non-Raptor F-150 tops out at $73,845 before options? If you drop that much on a full-size pickup, the odds of it seeing anything more than a few bags of mulch and a light trail is next to zero.

Station wagons are an interesting topic, especially when discussed in the United States. This body style used to be the vehicle of choice for family road trips and weekend soccer tournaments, but it has since been replaced by SUVs, crossovers, and pickup trucks. Wagons are still going strong in places like Europe, where they represent over 8% of the market (as of 2022), but even that number has dwindled in recent years.

Why Do Americans Hate This Style Of Vehicle More Than Anything Else?

While Ford has pushed back its EV ambitions for a more balanced approach, it recently launched the Ford Explorer EV in Europe and is about the officially debut its closely related sibling next month. Based on an oddly obtuse ad recently published in a car magazine, it seems that the upcoming vehicle will be called the Ford Capri, which would represent the revival of a nameplate familiar to European car shoppers who will probably be able to purchase the new model later this year.

The tale of Pontiac is a tragic one. The sporty and performance-oriented brand was killed off as a result of GM's financial woes, along with Hummer and Saturn. But what would have come of the company if it had survived? GM Design has showcased Pontiac's last-ever concept car, the G8, via its Instagram account. Handsome, striking, and sophisticated, this could have been the successor to the Pontiac G8, a rebadged Holden Commodore that was sold between 2008 and 2009.

Mercedes-Benz has already invested 14 billion euros, or around $15 billion, in its passenger car division this year – more than it previously planned. Mercedes-Benz CEO Ola Kallenius told German newspaper Wirtschaftswoche about this huge spending, which follows the company's move earlier this year to backtrack from its EV push and focus on hybrids instead.

Sedans are one of the best examples of Darwinism in the automobile business. The companies that still make them — mainly Toyota, Honda, Hyundai — do a fine job with them. This notion came into sharp focus for me during a recent test drive of the 2025 Toyota Camry. Once derided as the color beige manifested onto four wheels, the latest Camry has sleek, edgy styling, a nicely appointed interior and hybrid power. I spent a week with an XSE model, and I have five thoughts.
