A bit inside the box, a bit outside, the Maxvan Access camper is like no other. Maxvan pushes out the driver-side wall to create a split-bodied camper van with spacious, open floor plan further enhanced by a Murphy bed and hideaway bathroom.

Ford redesigned the Ranger pickup truck for the 2024 model year, pushing it into its fifth generation. I drove both the XLT and the Raptor, comprising two of the four models of Ranger available now.

Okay, the VW Transporter didn't go anywhere, but the T6.1 has felt like a lame duck for a while now. That changes today, as VW has debuted the 7th-gen Transporter. It looks softer than its predecessor but packs more of everything buyers want.

We're starting off the week with a mechanical marvel: a homemade dragster with dual Rolls-Royce jet engines that's been 17 years in the making – and could potentially hit 400 mph.

The CT-2 is a shape-shifting four-wheeled urban getabout, a tandem two-seater that can park in motorcycle spaces and filter through traffic – but that spreads its wheels wider for stability at higher speeds. It's slated for production in 2026.

The Pioneer 25 marks a momentous step in the world of motorsports as it passed the mandatory FIA crash tests. Developed solely for Extreme H, the world’s first hydrogen-powered motorsport, the car has a top speed of 200 km/h (124 mph).

Old SJ-series Jeep models are some of the most iconic American things there are. At Vigilante 4x4 in Texas, however, adding rubber-burning muscle and a whole lot of engineering makes them even more.

Westfalia updated one of van life's icons at this year's Düsseldorf Caravan Salon. The simpler, more streamlined James Cook camper van does away with the added bulk of an expansion module, going for faster four-sleeper setup, on or off road.

What's the most amount of time you've ever spent putting together a Lego model? A team of 23 lunatics from the Lego group and McLaren Automotive spent over 8,000 hours putting together a full-size working P1 replica that clocked 40 mph on a racetrack.

The YangWang U9 is remarkably affordable for a 1,287-horsepower electric hypercar at around US$236,000. It also rocks a 'DiSus' active suspension system powerful enough to launch the car off the ground, or let it rotate on the spot in a "tank turn."

The new Ariel E-Nomad concept may not look quite as downright menacing and imposing as a Polaris RZR Pro R (or, for that matter, Ariel's own ICE Nomad), but it definitely throws down the gauntlet.

The tiniest motorized camper we saw at this year's Düsseldorf Caravan Salon is a slick, stealthy micro-camper built on Ford's smallest van. No, not the Transit Connect, but the Transit Courier, an even smaller van that looks like a small crossover.

Mobilvetta is exploring the future of RVing with a concept it calls Fluideen. The design study looks to seamlessly blend the natural with the technological, bringing features like scented wallpaper and retractable furnishings.

SpaceCamper is push the boundaries of what a camper can be once again. Its Volkswagen Multivan pop-up concept is unlike anything we've ever seen, blurring the lines between a rooftop tent, high fixed sleeper roof and standard pop-top.

What do you do if you find a 6-meter Mercedes Sprinter too small for your camper van but a 7-meter too large? If you're Malibu, you tack on a little extra Sprinter to create a camper van that sizes right in the middle, just how you like it.
