Other automakers would call the X3 series compact SUVs, but we’ll go with SAV.

Every continent has one country that represents them in terms of car production. Asia has Japan, which hosts some of the biggest automotive manufacturers, with the likes of Honda, Toyota, Subaru and Lexus. With Europe, it is not as straightforward as it may seem. Italy hosts exotic and outstanding sports brands such as Ferrari and Lamborghini. England has luxurious brands, such as Bentley and Rolls-Royce. While these may be extravagant manufacturers, one country stands out the most for its renowned engineering habits.

The Murilee Martin Junkyard Odometer Standings were dominated by Honda and Mercedes-Benz for years, but extremely well-traveled Toyotas have been muscling in lately. A couple of months back, a 1996 Avalon with close to a million miles on its odometer took the No.1 spot, and today's Junkyard Treasure just grabbed second place for the car company founded by Kiichiro Toyoda.

As promised in a tease two months ago, the refreshed Audi E-Tron GT is out for the European market. And as expected, the upgrades track with those seen on the refreshed Porsche Taycan that sits on the same J1 platform as the Audi. Every E-Tron GT gets a battery pack that's grown from a usable 84 kWh to 97 kWh (105 kWh gross). An improved chemistry along with mechanical improvements to pack features like the cooling plates between cells means this greater capacity takes up less space and weighs about 20 pounds less than the previous pack. We'll have to wait on changes to EPA-rated range, Audi only saying max range is up to 375 miles on the WLTP cycle.

You’ve already seen the news. The M5 is back. Like every generational leap before this seventh-gen super sedan, BMW brought enough performance hyperbole to blow a hole in the sun. Its new M5 is the heaviest, baddest, most-powerful, most-capable, and most-complex one yet. Again. The burning question: do heaps...

Colorado’s reputation as a magical setting for summertime motorcycling calls for a modern bike that’s able to comfortably eat up the miles on a long road trip. And that’s where the BMW R 1250 RS sport touring motorcycle offers a right-sized mix of power, technology, and a ride height and position that encourages longer days in the saddle but is still loads of fun on canyon curves.

Volkswagen EVs get a lot of coverage, but the company isn’t abandoning gas-powered. Volkswagen introduced the 2025 Jetta and Jetta GLI with new exterior style accents, colors, and wheel choices, plus an updated interior, including a new dash with a floating 8-inch display. Aware of Jetta’s entry-level role in the brand’s model lineup, VW also promises the 2025 Jetta starting price will be lower than the 2024 Jetta with an automatic transmission, which starts at $21,995.

The 2025 Toyota GR Supra has gone I-6 only and gotten pricier as a result, though customers can still get a manual transmission, at least. The Toyota Supra has been around for a few years now after debuting in 2020, and since then, the reborn sports car has been treated to a few updates along the way. After originally only being available with a turbocharged 3.0-liter I-6, the Supra gained a turbo 2.0-liter I-4 for the 2021 model year, making it a bit cheaper for those that were perfectly fine with having a little less weight and horsepower in their rides. However, the 2025 Toyota GR Supra is ditching that four-banger just a few years after its addition to the lineup.
