The Aceman is MINI’s first-ever model sold exclusively as an EV, but the fact it’s built in China poses an issue. The European Commission is imposing tariffs on electric cars exported from China to EU countries, which will render some models too expensive to purchase. The silver lining here for the BMW Group is that it’s facing a temporary problem. From 2026, the Aceman will also be made in Oxford at home in the UK.

The Audi RS6 Avant is one of the most desirable cars in Ingolstadt's lineup. The V8-powered wagon is all things to all people: fast, handsome, luxurious, and discreet; there are few things the RS6 can do. But it seems the beloved Audi will morph into something entirely different in the new generation, as the latest spy shots suggest. That's because the RS6 nameplate will now be applied to an EV for the first time. However, that doesn't necessarily mean the combustion RS6 is dead.

Something Strange Is Happening To The Next-Gen Audi RS6

When BMW M Motorsport took the wraps off the 2025 M4 GT3 EVO in late May, it also previewed its GT4 companion. Now, the much cheaper race car is officially out, sharing the same “EVO” suffix. As expected, it inherits the updated headlights and taillights from the road-going 2025 M5 Coupe. Those nifty yellow daytime running lights are only offered on the limited-run M4 CS.

Porsche tested its first synthetic fuel-powered car and expects to go mass-market by the end of the decade.

How Porsche's Synthetic Fuel Could Alter The Course Of Automotive History

The automotive part of the internet has been flooded recently with reviews and opinions about the new 2025 BMW M5, the G90, a real heavy-hitter with way more power and torque than any M5 that came before it. However, because it’s a plug-in hybrid that weighs over 1,000 pounds more than the F90 it replaces, it isn’t any quicker to accelerate than its predecessor—it’s actually slower. With an official weight of 5,390 pounds (2,445 kilograms), it is heavier than a G05 X5 with either the 50e plug-in hybrid or M60i V8 powertrains, as well as the same versions of the G70 7 Series. It’s one of the heaviest BMWs you can buy today, even heavier than the manufacturer’s already pretty hefty EVs, including the i5 M60, which weighs 5,081 lbs (2,305 kg).

The 2025 BMW M5 Is so Heavy it Makes the i5 Seem Light… and More Tempting

Remember a time when you could get a manual gearbox in an all-wheel drive car and send it down a dusty trail for maximum fun? Those were the good days, and when rally racing and hot hatches hit their peak in the 1980s and 1990s, nothing made you feel more like a rally driver than the combination of AWD and a manual gearbox. But times have changed, the manual has fallen out of favor, and hot hatches, well, while there were once nearly a dozen or more to choose from, we're now down to just three or four genuine contenders. But of those that still remain, only one gives you that combination of a shift-it-yourself gearbox and drive to all four corners: the Toyota GR Corolla.
