A high rate of reliability is key when buying a new or used car in 2024. Though we have all heard that certain car brands are renowned for reliability and offering you the most stress-free driving experience, some automakers go above and beyond when it comes to the least problems per 100 cars built. Bullet-proof brands such as Honda, Toyota, Mazda, and Chevrolet are all high up as some of the most reliable car brands, but there is one automaker that beats the rest for problem-free driving.

As you might imagine, the staff here at InsideEVs has a lot of thoughts about electric cars and the future of transportation. Arguably, we'd be healthier, more well-rounded people if we thought less about EVs. Most likely, we'd be more fun at parties too. But that's not really our jam...

The Future Electric Vehicles We're Most Excited About

"Electric mobility for everyone". This is the motto with which Fiat is tackling the ecological transition. And to make it truly for everyone, the Turin-based company is convinced that electric mobility must be accessible and also practical. That is why it has decided that it will integrate charging cables inside...

Fiat will integrate charging cables into electric cars

Despite a parade of electric vehicles that can travel more than 300 miles on a charge, range anxiety remains a major hurdle to widespread adoption particularly in the US. There is, however, a “no-duh” antidote to allay fears of being stranded mid-trip: put a charger on the car. While traditional hybrid vehicles use gas to turn the wheels, a new crop of cars are burning it exclusively to charge a large onboard battery. It’s a strategy one might expect from an 8-year-old’s brainstorm, and it’s not a particularly efficient solution or a cheap one. But in an age of janky charging infrastructure and fraught, polarizing politics, electric motors juiced by an onboard, gas-sipping generator could be a killer EV app.

A New Wave of Electric Vehicles Are Ready to Charge at 70 MPH

For Ford fans, the performance years of the 1960s brought one advancement after another, and that time line begins with Ford’s assault at Indy in 1963 with its DOHC V-8 based on the small-block Windsor. Meanwhile, Ford’s “big-block”—the FE engine family—which began modestly in 1958 at 332-, 352-, and 360-cubic-inch displacements—had by the time of this story grown to 427 cubes and would power Ford to wins at Le Mans in 1966 and 1967. The subject of Eric Dahlquist’s original story, the 427-ci SOHC “Cammer,” was based on the FE and showed what could be done quickly within the warrens of Ford powertrain. At the time, it was unknown whether the engine would see production in factory-built cars (it wouldn’t), but for a short time the hemi-headed cammer would please crowds in A/FX cars built by Holman & Moody and Bill Stroppe Engineering before becoming a darling in the nitro-fueled ranks in front of drivers like Don Prudhomme, Connie Kalitta, Jack Chrisman, and Don Nicholson. —Johnny Hunkins.

There are a lot of factors that determine how much power an internal combustion engine makes, but the biggest is simply how fast it can consume fuel. This is true in both turbocharged and naturally aspirated drivetrains. While turbo or supercharged engines can get away with smaller displacements, because they force the fuel into the combustion chambers, the best way to make more ponies with air-breathers is to increase the cubic inches.

The Largest Displacement V8 Ever Put In An American Car

Over the last five years, various automotive manufacturers have gone into overdrive with their hybrids and EVs. This is due to many reasons, with people wanting to limit the emissions from their vehicles or saving money on fuel costs. When it comes to hybrids, people can get the best of both worlds with excellent fuel economy with the help of a battery while still housing a gasoline-powered engine to give that extra grit. There's one characteristic that most hybrids share, and that's reliability. While there are hundreds of different SUV hybrid configurations around the world, one here in America has the highest reliability among its American cousins.

Hot hatchbacks were popular in the 1990s and early 2000s, but they have been dwindling over the past 10 years. If you're unaware of what a "hot hatchback" is, it's a hatchback-style vehicle that has plenty of power, is fun to drive, and has the practicality to serve as a daily driver. For example, some enthusiasts consider the Volkswagen Golf GTI the "original hot hatchback" because it was fun to drive and relatively practical with its decent-sized cargo area and backseat.
