Drivers

[ad_1] BMW began its push toward electrification with a pair of purpose-built cars on carbon-fiber platforms, the i3 EV (with or without a gas-engine range extender) and the plug-in hybrid i8. For the M performance division’s first EV, the 2022 BMW i4 M50, the German brand takes a step back […]

[ad_1] If you follow Formula E—or any kind of motor racing, really—you know that behind the drivers, teams, and cars that win the races, telemetry is what drives everything.  Telemetry channels live data from a race car’s components to map energy in and energy out, velocity, and how driver inputs […]

[ad_1] With 1,050 hp at my disposal, the only sounds I hear are the whirr of electric motors, the occasional thrum of tires over rough pavement, and the drumbeat of my racing heart as I try to keep pace with the Stig on the twisty Skyline Drive in the San […]

[ad_1] I learned nearly as much about the 2023 Rivian R1S electric SUV with a ride in the second row as I did behind the wheel. On an off-road course outside the racetrack at the New York State’s Monticello Motor Club, with this truck’s ground clearance set to a maximum […]

[ad_1] The Short and Loud One. That’s what I dubbed the 2022 Land Rover Defender 90 V8 within four minutes of being behind the wheel. Land Rover has taken its incredibly capable new Defender and supercharged it with a V-8 engine to make it one of the most ridiculous and […]

[ad_1] One of the best practical daily-driver options on the market for an enthusiast isn’t selling. Kia sold just 13,517 Stingers in the U.S. in 2021, down 20% from the model’s peak sales of 16,806 in 2018 (which was its first year on the market). Despite the refresh for 2022, […]

[ad_1] —with additional reporting by Viknesh Vijaynthiran The first battery-electric Cadillac glides into garages and showrooms soon, and the 2023 Lyriq crossover SUV feels anything but familiar. It’s a revelation for a brand that’s been saddled by some of GM’s lesser efforts in the last decade—and blessed with some of […]

[ad_1] The radio crackled, “We got a winching opportunity!” A downed tree blocked the trail, giving us a reason to tap one of the 2022 Ford Bronco Everglade’s core capabilities. It was time to use the Bronco Everglades the way it was meant to be used. The addition of the […]

[ad_1] Turns out cheap, or at least reasonably priced, fun truly still exists. Who knew? The 2022 Subaru WRX is new, right down to the platform. With turbocharged power, a manual transmission, simple controls, and functional design, the rally-bred sport sedan lives up to its heritage and at a good […]

[ad_1] Sometimes enthusiast engineers get their way and automakers develop a vehicle we never conceived and didn’t know we wanted. The 2022 Hyundai Kona N is one of those vehicles. A performance version of an economy crossover, it goes beyond hot hatch straight to wild child. It can fade into […]

[ad_1] The numbers tell the story of the 2023 Cadillac Escalade-V. As the most expensive, largest, and most powerful Cadillac, it’s no surprise that many of its numbers are extreme. Here are a few of the most relevant: 682, 6,217, 14.2, and 149,990. 682 hp The main difference between the […]

[ad_1] Chevrolet spokesperson Shad Balch swore I would not, could not, bottom out the 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 ZR2 in Joshua Tree National Park during an adventure on ungroomed public trails. Never one to back down from a challenge, I told Balch, “we’ll see.” The new ZR2 is part of […]
