May 29th, 2015 |
|
Nissan has big plans for its crazy unconventional Le Mans prototype—a hybrid, mostly front-wheel-drive endurance racer that’s about as out-of-the-box as it gets.

|
We spend an awful lot of our energy analyzing and quantifying speed. Entire stories are centered around straight-line acceleration, the effects of different tires on 707-hp muscle cars at the drag strip (okay, one 707-hp muscle car), and even prodding rental cars to their top speeds—in reverse. We interrupt that programming to present a test […]

May 29th, 2015 |
|
The Ford Ranger is one of the most mass-produced pickups ever, and so it may surprise many to know that there’s actually a version of the little truck that was made in very, very limited numbers: the Ford SkyRanger, and one of them is on eBay right now.

| 2015 Porsche Boxster GTS PDK Tested: Made to Order |
May 29th, 2015 |
|
Ordering a Porsche can be a time-consuming affair. There are options on top of options and enough abbreviations to stymie a B-school graduate.

| Watch Nine Classic Jaguars on the Mille Miglia |
May 29th, 2015 |
|
Driving the Mille Miglia is not quite the five-star Italian vacation it appears in Jaguar’s video below. The route is befuddling, the traffic dense, and on top of it all, you’re expected to weave your rare vintage sports car around even rarer vintage sports cars while dealing with a back ache, a sore bum, […]

| 2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid and Plug-In Hybrid Driven: Making It Easier To Be Green |
May 29th, 2015 |
|
Although hybrids have been gathering dust in new-car showrooms of late, carmakers can’t afford to ignore them, for several reasons.
