The XM is a big deal, or at least that's what BMW wants it to be. The first dedicated M model since the mid-engined M1 supercar has big shoes to fill. However, it's sparked controversy because of its unusual design, massive curb weight, and huge asking price. We can all agree it couldn't be any farther from the M1 even if it tried. Well, the two do have something in common—an inline-six engine.

The Volkswagen Atlas is popular in North America, with 19,293 examples sold in Q2 2024 alone. That excludes the Atlas Cross, of which VW shifted 9,769 units.

Six-cylinder engines in automotive use are typically found in four configurations:

Cadillac’s future is electric, but its bread and butter, its here and now money-maker is the Escalade. This is a massive SUV whose soundtrack is a good old-fashioned V-8. While the hype may center on the coming 2025 Escalade IQ electric three-row luxury SUV, GM is minding the store by giving the regular Escalade a mid-cycle refresh for the same 2025 model year. And to better conjoin the two 'slades, the internal combustion models get some of the IQ's look and the tech.

Chevrolet’s new Equinox EV made headlines for being a well-executed EV that's relatively affordable. However, its eye-catching $35,000 base price never materialized for the 2024 model year, with the cheapest model being the Equinox 2LT starting at $41,900.

The Cadillac Celestiq signaled a new direction for the brand when it debuted nearly two years ago. The limited-production, bespoke electric vehicle gave customers near-limitless customization options—a bold new way for the luxury brand. But what comes next for Cadillac's commissioned cars? The Celestiq won't be a one-hit wonder if the new Sollei convertible concept previews the automaker's future direction.

For the record, this isn't the worst damage we've seen from an I Do Cars engine teardown video. It's not even the worst 3.0-liter Duramax we've seen, lest we forget the destroyed diesel that literally had valve shapes stamped into the pistons. But we've never seen a hole in the cylinder caused purely by heat. How hot does it have to get to actually burn through a cylinder bore?

While the 2025 Honda Civic Hybrid is the big addition to the lineup this year, other trims are getting modest updates, too.

Mercedes lists it at 350, but since EV range can fluctuate with driving style and conditions, the vehicle was showing a max of over 400 miles and an estimated remaining range of around 385 or so when the car was dropped off. The battery capacity, if you're wondering, is 108.4...

The Ford Explorer is not only a big deal for Ford and everything the Blue Oval touches, it's a big deal for the entirety of the automotive industry. Way before the electrified era we find ourselves in, Ford popularized the concept of a body-on-frame SUV with the 1991 Explorer. Pretty consistently since then, the Explorer has been one of the best selling American vehicles. It'd be hard to understate the Explorer's popularity and influence on the automotive world when it debuted over 30 years ago.

Mercedes-Benz has a different kind of Cars and Coffee scenario in mind. Instead of rolling into a weekend car show with an AMG GT, how about daily stops at the local Starbucks in an EQE?

There's a lot more to it than the big numbers, though. Luckily, we got a chance to talk to several of the lead engineers behind the car, including its executive chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
