BMW’s Neue Klasse generation of electric vehicles will bring with it a suite of compelling and intriguing models, none more so than the wacky high-riding two-door coupe we spotted in early July. The vehicle depicted in these renderings is much more traditional than that coupe, but if it sees the light of day, it will still turn plenty of heads.

Toyota has issued a major recall of its twin-turbocharged V-6 engines powering the 2022 and 2023 Tundra pickup trucks and Lexus LX SUVs.

At first, Toyota was unsure how many engines were contaminated, but now, months later, the solution is to replace more than 100,000 engines.

We love weird old classic cars, don't we folks? This one comes from Audi—more specifically, Auto Union. Internally known as the Type 52, the so-called "Schnellsportwagen"—or "fast sports car"—was supposed to be a road-going version of the Type 22 Grand Prix race car from the 1930s. It would have had a 16-cylinder engine with upwards of 200 horsepower, and a top speed of 125 miles per hour, making it one of the fastest cars of the day.
