2025 CHEVROLET CORVETTE ZR1 Revealed: Twin-turbo V8, 1064 hp, 215 MPH
/
/
comments
The C8-generation Chevy Corvette’s base model was already a fast car, so it took throwing a flat-plane-crank V8 into the Z06 for it to become something special. And with that kind of gusto up their sleeve, we’ve known all along that Chevy was going to swing for the fences with the top-dog C8 ZR1. And…

It wasn’t long ago that if you wanted a factory-built Jeep and a pickup truck, you had to buy both; and, it wasn’t long ago that if you wanted a desert-running factory-built pickup, it meant buying a Ford Raptor. Jeep finally alleviated buyers of this dilemma for the 2020 model year with the Gladiator, and…

On Father’s Day morning I fulfilled the car-dad stereotype by going for a solo drive to get some coffee at the local “car guys” spot. Behind the wheel of the new 2024 Nissan Z NISMO, I felt like the coolest guy in town. Fully expecting the Z to draw some attention upon my arrival, it…

2024 Subaru Outback 2.4 Touring XT Review
/
/
comments
The Subaru Outback is the brand’s second-best selling vehicle as of late, slotting in behind the same-ethos-but-smaller-and-less-expensive Crosstrek. And yet, the Outback still feels like the heart of Subaru, embodying the notion that weather conditions don’t matter, you don’t need low-range to go into the woods, and the wagon lifestyle is better than that brought…

2024 BMW X2 xDrive28i: Quick Review
/
/
comments
Automotive reviewers love to lament the coupe-ified CUV/SUV trend for taking something useful and deliberately making it less so, and the trajectory that started largely thanks to the BMW X6 back in 2007 has now manifested in the 2024 BMW X2, and in this case the X2 xDrive28i.

2024 Mercedes GLB35 4MATIC Quick Review: More than the sum of its parts
/
/
comments
On paper, the 2024 Mercedes GLB35 4MATIC compact crossover has a lot stacked against it. The price and relative lack of power alone are enough to cause pause, yet in reality the little wannabe SUV masquerades as a high-sitting hot hatch with some AMG goodness baked in. This thing is a little ripper, a blast…
