Carlos Ghosn Says Nissan Is in a 'Desperate Situation'

Say what you will about Carlos Ghosn, but he certainly knows how to stir up controversy. After fleeing house arrest in late 2019 and taking refuge in Lebanon, where citizens are not extradited, the ex-Nissan supremo still speaks to the press from time to time. Every media appearance is filled…

The Aston Martin Vantage Roadster Drives Like the Coupe, Mostly: Review

We're big fans of the new Aston Martin Vantage. It made it to the very last rounds of our inaugural Cool Car Cup last year, only to be beaten out by the 1,001 horsepower V-12 hybrid lunatic that is the Lamborghini Revuelto. I voted for the Vantage; it's a driver's…

Those Oil Life Indicators Are Way More Accurate Than You Think

Many modern cars have an oil life indicator to tell owners when they should have their oil changed. Some are even fancy enough to display a percentage that conveys exactly how much life is left in the oil. If you've ever wondered if that percentage is accurate, well, it is.…

Here's How to Build a 1,200-HP BMW Drift Engine

Coming of age in the early 2000s, I'll never forget stepping out of the theater after The Fast and the Furious let out. Even the minivans were banging against redline.

James May and Richard Hammond Are Just Doing Top Gear Stuff Now

Humans are creatures of habit, and change is hard, so we shouldn’t be surprised to see James May and Richard Hammond doing what they do best—stupid stuff with cars. In a new DriveTribe YouTube video, the pair recreate and relive their glory days of Top Gear with a classically ridiculous…

Be a Hero, Buy This Off-Road Mini

It’s pretty obvious that Mini Coopers are not made for off-roading. The pint-sized five-door is designed for puttering around town or zipping through the cones of your local autocross course, and not much else. Anything larger than a pebble would disrupt the suspension. But don’t tell that to the person…

Someone Installed a Head Gasket Upside Down on This Small Block V-8

GM's 6.2-liter L87 small-block V-8 is subject to a huge recall over bad crankshafts and/or connecting rods in engines built between 2021 and 2024. This earlier L87 V-8, from a 2019 GMC Sierra Denali, is destroyed for an entirely different reason—likely human error.

The 2026 Porsche 911 Carrera T is God’s Sports Car

It’s really hard to argue with a Porsche 911. Even though the new, manual only, base-engined Carrera T now costs what a 911 GT3 used to cost, the increase in price comes with old 911 GT3 performance. Then Porsche has this special talent—charging more for less equipment. Because the Carrera…

From Seat to Mercedes: The Evolution of the Popemobile

All heads of state have special cars. Donald Trump gets around with a huge Cadillac called The Beast, while his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin rolls in a massive Aurus Arsenal.

This Might Be Mansory's Worst Car Yet

Mansory must be trolling at this point. It's making three special versions of its "Pugnator," a modified Ferrari Purosangue that was already hard to look at. And they're somehow even more wild than before. It's called the Mansory Pugnator Tricolore, and it features some truly ludicrous bodywork.

Even Hot Wheels Could Get a Price Hike From Trump's Tariffs

Hot Wheels toys could become far more expensive if President Trump has his way. On Thursday, the President threatened to enact a 100-percent tariff on Mattel, Hot Wheels' parent company, after its CEO promised to diversify its production to other countries (but not the United States).

Every Three-Row SUV You Can Buy in 2025

Americans love their three-row SUVs, and for good reason. Most three-rows are nice to drive, relatively efficient, and can carry up to eight people with luggage. They are the perfect do-everything vehicles for large families, or buyers simply wanting something roomier.

A UK Company Is Bringing V-6-Powered Miatas to America

One of the many great things about the Mazda Miata is that it's a great platform to build upon. A decently roomy engine bay in NAs and NBs accommodates a ton of engine swaps. Ford and Chevy V-8s are common, K-series Honda engines are getting more popular too. One company…

How Oil Analysis Reveals Your Engine's Secrets

Oil analysis is forensic, like dusting your engine for prints. But instead of looking for clues on whodunnit, Blackstone monitors your engine’s health. Send off a quart or so of oil for analysis, and you’ll learn a ton.

Europe Gives Carmakers More Time to Meet Emissions Targets

We’re usually the bearer of bad news when we talk about decisions taken by the European Union. But that’s not the case today. While emissions regulations remain just as strict as before, automakers have been granted extra time to meet the new targets for 2025. Instead of being forced to…

Add in the vehicles shipped by its Daihatsu and Hino subsidiaries, and the total rises to 10,821,480.

Downsizing Be Damned: More Mercedes Models Could Get a V-8

Mercedes-Benz is adamant that there’s still a place in an electrified automotive world for a large-displacement engine. Despite increasingly stringent emissions regulations, the AMG performance division is hard at work preparing an all-new V-8. Not only will it power existing eight-cylinder models, but it could also be shoehorned into cars…

The US Secret Service Can't Drive Stick. GM Is Helping Fix That

Tesla Fails Cybertruck Owners Again, Cancels Key Upgrade

Owning a Tesla Cybertruck must be tough. The automaker launched the electric pickup in late 2023 with a range far below what it had promised at launch. The truck was supposed to exceed 500 miles on a single charge, but the production version didn’t even get close to that, so…

The Porsche Cayenne GTS Coupe Really Drives Like a Sports Car: Review

The Cayenne is the biggest SUV Porsche makes, available in standard or Coupe form. In this case, “Coupe” doesn’t mean fewer doors, but a different roof shape, sloping toward the rear of the SUV to create a sportier silhouette. You lose a few square feet in the trunk area and…
