| Next Toyota Prius Plug-In Allegedly Could Provide 30 to 35 Miles of Electric Range |
Jul 21st, 2015 |
|
Toyota’s first-generation Prius plug-in was a bit of a dud. First launched for 2013, it was much pricier than a standard Prius but by the time production ended, the price had been slashed to within $2000 of the regular model. But even the price drop didn’t solve its biggest problem: a relatively low electric-only range […]

| Van Tale-In': The Ford Transit Has a Longer History Than You Realized |
Jul 21st, 2015 |
|
We have lamented the passing of the venerable Ford E-series—a vehicle that’s ingrained in the fabric of automotive America, one that was offered with a 6.8-liter V-10 to the very end. Its replacement? The ultra-efficient Transit, nothing more than a soulless breadbox. But is it? Actually, no. The Transit, in fact, has a rich history of […]

| Sound on Sound: AMG Teases C63 Coupe, Adds Noise [Video] |
Jul 21st, 2015 |
|
A couple of weeks back, AMG peppered its Facebook pages with images of a lightly camo’d C63 coupe. Which is all well and good, but it neglected one of the finest things about V-8–powered automobiles from Mercedes-Benz’s extra-zoot division: the racket. Having driven the AMG GT-S, which carries a version of the C63’s twin-turbo, 4.0-liter […]

| This Could Be the Hottest Homologated Race Car Ever |
Jul 21st, 2015 |
|

Jul 21st, 2015 |
|
“Live, travel, adventure, bless, and don’t be sorry.” — Jack Kerouac, On The Road While the automobile may have spent the better part of the last century as an avatar for hope and a better tomorrow, it’s the road trip that serves as the catalyst for adventure and freedom. Back in 1915, nobody knew this better […]

| 2016 McLaren 675LT Driven! Slightly More Exciting than Aerial Combat |
Jul 21st, 2015 |
|
This is a great time to be a billionaire gearhead, no question. Manufacturers are practically tripping over each other to bring their adjective-stretching hypercars to market, complete with their four-figure power outputs and seven-digit price tags. This is a golden era for those with bottomless pockets and an urge to go very, very quickly. READ […]
