| 2015 Mercedes-Benz S550 Coupe Driven: Dag, It’s Sexy (and Good, Too) |
Jun 25th, 2014 |
|
Take a good look at the new S-class coupe. That’s right, slow down and stop clicking your mouse or swiping your screen for a few seconds. The car is gorgeous, no? But photos don’t even capture its enormous size, its presence, its curves. It is not a supermodel, a waif of a sports car designed […]

| Fully Electric 2015 Ford F-150 to Cost $350, You Won’t Fit in It |
Jun 25th, 2014 |
|
I begged my parents for a Power Wheels from the moment I could speak; they resisted my tantrums. Six years later, my insolent brother, whose indifference towards Power Wheels was palpable, got one on a whim. The yellow Jeep grew a thick coat of dust, unused, in my parents’ garage.

| The #LOLVO Guy Is Back, This Time with Hilarious Spot for *New* Volvo V60 Wagon |
Jun 25th, 2014 |
|
We wish the head jellies which do our own thinking could better understand this amazing Volvo clip, but there’s no doubt it’s highly entertaining. Christoffer Castor, the man behind this epically nonsensical Volvo 240 video ad, was loaned a new V60 by the U.S. arm of Volvo Cars and, well, just watch the result. (“Clicks […]

Jun 25th, 2014 |
|
Ford’s aluminum fetish isn’t finished with the 2015 F-150. Given the enormous research and material costs Ford is taking on for its redesigned pickup, you’d expect the automaker to look for other ways to apply its newfound aluminum expertise—and what better way to quickly do so that to use it for another pickup?

| Bounce and Recharge: Audi Developing Energy-Generating Suspension |
Jun 25th, 2014 |
|
There are many ways that energy is wasted in an automobile, including braking, mechanical friction, aerodynamic drag, and more. Audi, which is just now launching its first-ever plug-in hybrid, the A3 e-tron, and which continues development of its all-electric R8 e-tron supercar, seems hell-bent on plugging the energy drains wherever it finds them.

| Sword Fight: DeltaWing’s Don Panoz Takes Out Ad to Shame Carlos Ghosn Over Nissan ZEOD RC |
Jun 25th, 2014 |
|
Don Panoz is not pleased with Nissan’s narrow-nosed ZEOD RC. We’ve known this since at least December, when we found out that Panoz was suing the Japanese automaker over pretty blatant design similarities between Panoz’s DeltaWing project and Nissan’s new race car. Given that both were designed by Ben Bowlby, who’d initially shopped the narrow-track […]

Jun 25th, 2014 |

In April, we brought you another installment in our search for the best sports coupe. After days of sliding through switchbacks on the Angeles Crest Highway in California, we crowned the Eagle Talon TSi as king of the two-plus-twos. Of course, the honor extended to the Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX and the Plymouth Laser RS Turbo […]
