It's not a big surprise that the manual-transmission SUV is next up on the chopping block for vehicles sending the manual the way of the dodo. The appeal of the manual gearbox largely has to do with driver engagement. The appeal of the sports utility vehicle is mostly down to convenience in the modern automotive landscape. These two qualities are, if not incompatible, at least difficult to counterbalance. Then you add cost concerns into the mix, and it's easy to see why SUV makers would rather avoid spending millions developing a new stick shift and passing the expenses on to the buyer in a segment that frequently competes on price alone.

2026 Ford Thunderbird Revival: A Digital Rendering Teases a Modern Twist on an Iconic Classic Coupe Amid Ford’s Shift to SUVs and EVs

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, I’m sure you’ll be aware that multi-million-dollar cars require eye-watering amounts of money just for simple maintenance and servicing, especially if it’s a Bugatti. Over the years, we’ve had many Bugatti owners tell us how insanely expensive it is to own a hypercar. While a 27-year-old recently claimed that his $4 million Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport Carbon goes a mere 62 miles on a full tank of fuel, renowned entrepreneur and influencer Manny Khoshbin has given a detailed account of the ownership cost of his Veyron in the past. He claimed that all fluids have to be changed each year, and that costs a whopping $25,000.

The owner of a $1.7 million Bugatti Veyron was shocked when the official service center quoted him $12,000 to replace a faulty door mirror switch. The clever owner took it to a supercar specialist who swapped it with an identical part from a Volkswagen van, which cost just $1.

A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

The Miata has a front-engine, rear-drive configuration and a lightweight construction that makes it fun to drive on the street and the track.

Electric automotive technology isn't necessarily a new thing, but it has become substantially more popular in recent years as brands push to lower their overall carbon footprint. A conventional electric car design possesses far fewer moving parts , making the overall drivetrain a lot more efficient when compared to your average ICE design. Couple this with the fact that you don't need any fossil fuels to power an EV, and you'll find that this newer technology is a lot more of a logical choice for new automotive designs. Of course, this puts the debate of which configuration is more enjoyable to the side, as EVs generally have a reputation for being dull and soulless.
