Photo: Mic / Wikimedia Commons Either consciously or subconsciously, we all make mental notes after every interaction we’ve had with other vehicles on the road. Some drivers try to never end up side-by-side with a tractor-trailer, typically never pulling alongside a big rig unless there’s enough space to quickly blast past entirely.

Photo: Porsche We all love car names, but they’re not always honest. Sometimes a car is given a name that the machine does not accurately reflect. Or sometimes cars are given a name that’s completely opposed to the vehicle that wears the badge. It would almost be cruel, if it weren’t so funny. We asked … Read more
Hyundai’s boxy, almost Land Rover-like redesign of its Santa Fe crossover stunned a lot of people. No matter what you think of the design, you can’t deny that it’s a dramatic glow-up over the outgoing generation. And now we finally know what it’ll cost as Hyundai has dropped pricing. Including $1,395 for destination, the 2024 … Read more

I’m not talking about approachable sporty players like the BMW 3 Series or Genesis G70; I’m talking dedicated performance cars, stuff you find with AMG, V-Series or M badges. Don’t get me wrong, we love that they exist, but most people aren’t enthusiasts, and the … Read more

On Friday, Dodge posted the all-electric next-gen Charger EV to Twitter in its final form before the car actually hits dealer showrooms. If … Read more
Photo: VinFast The VinFast VF8 is a bad car, and with a base price of nearly $50,000, you can’t even make the argument that it doesn’t need to be fancy because it’s cheap. Despite that (and all the negative reviews that came from the press launch), VinFast decided to start selling its cars in the … Read more
We’re living in the end times, and that means Volkswagen announced Monday it is adding ChatGPT artificial intelligence to its cars – integrating the AI into the automaker’s IDA voice assistant. Volkswagen made the announcement on the opening day of the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. The company says it’s the first volume manufacturer … Read more
