Four years ago, the RUF Rodeo Concept gave us a glimpse of the brand's take on an off-road reinterpretation of a Porsche 911. That concept is now a reality in the form of the 2025 RUF Rodeo, debuting at Friday's The Quail, a Motorsports Gathering event. Y'all, oange has never looked so good.

Is RUF's Safari-Style Off-Road Sports Car Better Than the Porsche 911 Dakar?

While melding manic supermoto fun with adventure-bike all-day comfort and range may seem notionally absurd, KTM is no stranger to the concept. When the original SuperMoto Touring 990 SM-T debuted in 2009, it wasn’t much to look at. But its V-twin performance, sublime handling, and versatile capability soon garnered a dedicated following. By the time production ended in 2013, the 990 had not only proved the supermoto touring idea but also made a legend of the marque, ensuring high expectations of the latest iteration, the KTM 890 SMT. I spent two weeks riding the new model and discovered it is indeed a worthy successor.

Don't count out the Hellcat just yet. The final 6.2-liter supercharged V-8-powered car in Dodge's lineup, the Durango Hellcat, is still very much in production.

The first thing to follow a crate engine announcement seems to be a long wait. Dodge announced a range of Hurricrate inline-six engines and four Hellephants in November 2022. The Hurricates are finally here. They start with the Cat 1 (as in hurricane category, ba-dum bump) making 420 horsepower and 468 pound-feet of torque with 22 psi of boost from its two turbos and a 10.4:1 compression ratio. There's an aluminum block and twin-cam head, cast aluminum pistons, and liquid cooling working on the exhaust manifolds and intercooler. The Cat 3 Huuricrate upgrades to forged aluminum pistons and rings, plus low-friction coatings on the wristpins. There's greater flow through the fuel injection system and additional cooling for the intercooler. A reduced 9.5:1 compression ratio and 26 psi of boost crank output to 550 horsepower and 531 pound-feet of torque.

When it comes to building engines, one philosophy is that the bigger, the better. Six cylinders? Why not eight? Ten? Twelve? Another philosophy is to work smarter, not harder. If you can get supercar specs out of six cylinders, why drag the car down with all that extra aluminum and cast iron? Track records are frequently made and broken on a difference of 100 pounds of curb weight, and with how much juice you can get out of turbochargers and electric motors these days, it's no wonder some of the quickest cars in the world have some of the leanest engines.

The Ford Mustang needs no introduction, and in 2024, it is somewhat in a class of its own. It returned for 2024 with its V8 engine intact and even better than before, refusing to follow the Chevy Camaro and Dodge Challenger to the grave. Ford already gave us the Shelby Mustang GT500, it unveiled the GT3 race car and even gave the world the Mustang Dark Horse.

And, they're right at home here in South Carolina.

	That’s why the Croatian marque unveiled the Nevera R, a high-performance version of its electric hypercar, at this year’s Monterey Car Week. Somehow, the company found a way to wring even more power out of the EV’s quad-motor powertrain.




	Let’s get this out of the way: the Nevera is a car that does not need a high-performance variant (last year’s Time Attack edition was a limited-edition release, not a distinct model). The EV, which has been in production since 2022, has...

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, is still looking for a forever home for an adorable six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”
