If you’ve never driven a Tesla before, it’s something of an immediately alien experience. The tip-in acceleration isn’t like any gasoline-powered car on the market, because it doesn’t need to ramp up. If you stomp on the throttle in an EV, it goes right when you tell it to go.

Tesla Cybertruck's range failed to impress, mostly because the 4680 cells did not live up to expectations. However, Tesla continues to improve the chemistry and the manufacturing process.

Here’s something we don’t stumble across every day: a real 1970 badass hemicuda that’s not a 426 anymore. The backstory is mostly obscure, but the owner wants $200,000 for it, although it’s so far off the old block that it’s hardly worthy of its hemispherical nobility title anymore. The Barracuda made a spectacular comeback in 1970, taking the 426 cubic inch (7.0-liter) engine in custody a. ( continue reading.

‘My Bugatti is too crammed, unpractical, and high-octane smelly,’ said no hyper-rich owner ever, but let’s give them the benefit of the doubt and pretend there would be such a case.

People like pickup trucks because they are versatile vehicles. Tradespeople can use them for work, travelers for towing, adventurers for overlanding, and everybody else can turn them into unnecessarily large commuting appliances.

We're often told that aviation is safer nowadays than any other form of motorized transportation. In no uncertain terms, you're more likely to harm yourself buckled into a passenger car than you are strapped into a passenger airliner.

A few years ago, no one would have dreamed of seeing Tesla models cost less than $100k. Nowadays, even the flagship 1,020-horsepower Plaids sit comfortably below that major threshold.

Once someone determines a car will become a classic, they go out of their way to maintain it in as good condition as possible. For most, that means making sure they are kept in climate-controlled facilities and started as often as possible. For others that means using a hoist in a bid to keep the car off the ground altogether. That's how this amazing 1970 Dodge Charger R/T spent a good portion of its life.

Now defunct, Pontiac was one of the most successful automotive brands on the North American continent back in the 1960s.

The NHTSA's website clearly states that the 25-year period runs from the date of the car's manufacture. The manufacturing date can be pinpointed in a number of ways, beginning with a label affixed to the vehicle by the manufacturer.
