Overview No other car in the Lexus lineup has the luxury sedan legacy of the 2023 LS. It’s been around since the brand’s inception but its competitive edge and desirability have waned since the first LS disrupted the luxury car market in 1990. Unlike the original LS, which used Mercedes-Benz The latest S-class, LS is a rugged individualist that has its own way of doing luxury. While most other large luxury sedans at least offer a V-8 engine, the LS does without—instead with a twin-turbo V-6 and an unrefined hybrid powertrain option. In the past, LS has worn a conservative,…
‘Lamborghini: The Man Behind the Legend’ is a complete mess.
Overview To properly convert a standard Benz into an AMG requires more than just a power-boosted engine and a waterfall grille. Take the 2023 Mercedes-AMG GLA class, for example, which gets both of those things but also offers improved handling via a retuned suspension and sticky tires. The AMG version of the GLA-class is a fiery little crossover that brings two levels of heat, with either 302 or 382 horsepower under its fat hood. There are compromises too. For example, the ride is very hard and can be too stiff for everyday use. But if you’re concerned about comfort above…
The Kia Sorento is reaping the benefits of better supply, setting an all-time monthly sales record of as much 1063 units in November 2022 – although it’s a bit of a give and take. November’s monthly total is a 315.2 percent increase over the same month in 2021, while year-to-date figures for the Sorento 6637 sales as of November 30 marked a growth of 37.2 percent. However, it’s not all good news. While the supply of petrol and diesel models has improved to record sales levels, the hybrid version of the Sorento is in short supply due to global demand,…
Lightyear 0, a sleek electric car said to be able to cover daily commutes using only solar energy to charge its batteries, has entered production in Finland. The Netherlands-based company is working with Finnish automaker Valmet Automotive, which is contracted to produce the vehicle. The pitch behind the Light Year 0 is a vehicle that relies less on the grid for charging, which focuses on reducing weight and shrinking the on-board battery. “Electric cars are a step in the right direction, but they have scaling problems. By 2030, we can expect 84 million electric vehicles on the road in Europe…
identificationThis is a given. Redesigned for the 2022 model year and already carrying a 10Best trophy, the new Subaru BRZ is a challenge for long-distance touring, especially now that it’s infused with more power and refinement than the 2013 BRZ we last put through our 40,000-mile test. This is 2839 pounds of affordable rear-wheel drive fun. The fun of driving is meat and potatoes. Why did we choose the BRZ over the also fresh Toyota GR86? That’s a tougher call, but this platform is still the baby of Subaru’s engineering team. That the BRZ also rides better on bad Midwestern…

How could we not welcome Subaru’s redesigned BRZ sports coupe into our fleet for a 40,000-mile evaluation? It’s more powerful and refined than ever—an accolade it shares with the all-new Toyota GR86. It’s the totem of affordable rear-wheel drive goodness, and we wanted to spend as much time with it as possible.read the full review
General Motors (GM) is preparing to combine the best battery-electric and hydrogen powertrains in its pickup trucks, according to a new report from the United States. GM Authority reports a medium-duty pickup truck released as soon as 2026 could feature a hydrogen fuel cell and a large lithium-ion battery pack, essentially creating a hydrogen plug-in hybrid. “The battery pack will have less capacity than the equivalent pack used to power a pure BEV, but still have enough juice to act as the main power source for the electric motor,” GM Authority said. General Motors previously said it plans to offer…
