The Bugatti Chiron Supersport 300+ held the crown for the world's fastest car since 2019. It took six long years for a worthy contender to not just step up but snatch that feat from Bugatti like it was nothing … in the form of an EV, no less!

BYD’s Yangwang U8L SUV is tricked out with the usual rotating 360 degrees on the spot and the ability to crab walk diagonally. But the fanciest party trick of them all is emergency flotation on water – in case your yacht ever failed on you.

The Arrow Roadster might not go fast, but it's a proper two-seater with cycle fenders, leather bonnet straps, and boat tail coachwork. Clearly, it's meant for retro enthusiasts, but at least it brings a unique proposition to the crowded EV market.

Weeks before Ford revealed its winter-ready Nugget High Roof last month, it put an even more ready-for-anything Nugget camper van on show. You won't find this axe-wielding off-road Nugget van at the Ford dealership, but it is available to buy.

Full self-driving. Tesla’s astonishingly wild promise seems to have gone off the rails. Apparently, Tesla has changed the meaning of FSD, and it sounds an awful lot like the company is giving up on its promise. Will it ever happen?

Volkswagen doesn’t mix themes when it comes to the Atlas. The Atlas is a big, three-row, family SUV that’s made for daily driving. It’s not sporty, exotic, off-road crazy, or anything other than an honest utility.

Shell says it's developed a thermal management fluid for electric vehicles (EV) that can help speed up battery charging dramatically – we're talking 10%-80% in under 10 minutes. Not bad for an oil and gas company, eh?

Volvo first revealed its electric sedan ES90 back in March this year. Ever since then, there have been rumblings around how it could go on to be the company’s statement EV. And now that it's launched, it very well might have!

Hyundai just unveiled its stunning Ioniq Concept 3, a compact five-door with perhaps the most playful design language the company has experimented with in years. And the production model is expected to come out next year looking a lot like this.

The Mini lineup is no longer mini and the move to fully electric models isn’t as dynamic as one might hope. The Countryman, the largest of the Minis, rivals most compact SUVs for size. Our time behind the wheel wasn't big on fun, practicality, or that classic Mini spirit.
