A person can have a lot of fun answering the prompt of: "What is the world's fastest Volkswagen?" You can be clever and argue it's the brand-new Bugatti Tourbillon V-16 hypercar, or the Porsche 911, or many other high-performance models from the brands under the Volkswagen Group umbrella—but Volkswagen is one of those brands, too, and there's an updated 2025 Volkswagen Golf R that promises to be the new fastest car it'll sell (well, in a tie). Here's what to expect from the updated hot hatchback coming stateside early next year.

Larger, heavier, more expensive – the new Macan has gone exclusively electric. Does the Porsche magic remain?. The crowds are promenading, dressed in the kind of nautical stripes, pastel linens and yacht tans that only make sense down here on the French Riviera, and you can almost smell the heady scent of rich. The traffic is much more proletarian, beaten Fiat 500s, Smart cars and the odd fancy bit of metal, all local traffic sporting the bumps and bruises of French street parking.

After a lot of struggle and questions being raised about the brand's quality standards, courtesy of the recent recalls including Porsche Taycan's latest brake-related issues, Porsche has overcome all odds and once again emerged as a top performer in the J.D.

Life can be such a chore, you know? Doesn’t matter who you are—at some point, you become subject to mundane tasks that tear you away from whatever it is your heart desires.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

Interior loaded with features, including Klipsch audio. You might have read our recent First Test report on the 2025 Ram 1500 Laramie Standard Output pickup truck. If you didn’t, the gist is it impressed us a fair amount in a straight line and less so in our braking and handling tests. We also tested a 2025 Ram with the carryover Pentastar V-6; it was, uh, less impressive. We’ve now put a more potent refreshed Ram through our battery of tests, namely the 2025 Ram 1500 Crew Cab Tungsten 4x4 High Output.

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.
