If you’re like us, you can’t get enough of the new M5. Thankfully, there’s more to share about the G90 since a new clip shows off BMW’s monster sedan. Painted in Fire Red, aka Vegas Red in the United States, the ultimate family car bares it all in a walkaround video. This build is far from being standard since we’re noticing a few optional goodies.

The BMW Group is set to introduce a significant change in its sales model by transitioning to a direct sales approach for the MINI brand starting October 1, 2024.

Big changes are coming to Audi. Earlier this year, the Q6 e-tron SUV was revealed, and, more recently, it was the turn of the new A5 lineup. Now, the Ingolstadt-based brand is getting ready to unveil the new A6 e-tron, its first-ever electric executive sedan and wagon. A new teaser...

Audi's Lucid Air Fighter Is Nearly Here

We were misinformed: previous sightings of what was thought to be the upcoming Audi RS7 Avant (and replacing the existing combustion-powered RS6 Avant as even-numbered Audi cars go electric) have turned out to be of the future Audi A7 allroad. In hindsight, it's pretty obvious that the bulbous arches are not temporary placeholders before more aggressive fenders are tried on, and that point is only highlighted further by sightings of the actual Audi RS7, caught testing near the Nürburgring. With these new images, we can all rest easy knowing that the design department of the RS division has not gone soft, modernizing trademark styling elements for the new era. This is probably not the time or place to discuss an opinion of the G90 BMW M5, but this writer believes Munich could have done more to improve its new super sedan's sex appeal. Still, the M5 has its USPs, and we look forward to seeing its Touring variant compete with Ingolstadt's new beast on US soil.

A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law.

If you’re in the market for a hybrid sedan that can rival the likes of the Toyota Camry, admittedly the options are pretty limited. You’ll want something in and around the same price bracket, which for the 2025 Camry Hybrid is between $28,400 and $34,600 depending on trim. The Camry produces 225 horses thanks to its 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with two electric motors, so you’ll probably want something with an equal amount of power, too.
