The 2020 Karma Revero GT Sounds Like A Flying Saucer That's Been Pummeled By Asteroids

The Karma Revero GT, which you might have called the “Karma Revero” or the “Fisker Karma” in the past, will have a new setup powering it in 2020. Because that setup leans heavily electric, the powertrain of silence, the Revero will also feature some fake “engine” noise in order...

Donald Trump Doesn't Know Shit About Cars

Right off the bat, I’d like to remind everybody that’s considering banging out angry emails about “politics” and “bias” that I think it’s important to revisit the idea that powerful politicians don’t know shit about cars because, A. they don’t and 2., they make policies based on not knowing...

Hertz Will Rent You A 750 HP Hendrick Motorsports-Inspired Camaro

If you have some extra cash burning a hole in your pocket the next time you’re at the Hertz rental counter, and simply upgrading from “Ford Focus or similar” to “Chevrolet Malibu or similar” won’t give you the thrills you were after, consider this instead: a 750 horsepower Chevrolet...

Holy Crap, When Did Airplane Tugs Get So Freaking Stylish?

I was just on a trip to drive a Jeep Gladiator over a bunch of rocks (more on that soon) and while at the aerodrome to board my airship, I happened to notice one of the tugs used to drag planes around. This tug caught my eye because, unlike...

Comment Of The Day: Fuel Savings Edition

Cars have so much junk on them now to save a tiny little fraction of gasoline. They have so much junk that they’re less safe. All they really need is a FuelShark. Obviously. You know it. I know it. The President knows it. If every car in America had...

Jaguar Can Finally Totally Go Mid-Engine Too (Maybe)

Nine years ago Jaguar unveiled the C-X75 concept, a turbine-generator hybrid electric supercar. It was far and away the most advanced Jaguar in the company’s lengthy history, and arguably Ian Callum’s most fetching design of his entire career.

Rammstein — 'Keine Lust'

Traffic sucks, so why not start your morning off with some music? You provide the toast and we’ll provide the jams. Made my husband very mad the other day by quietly singing this into his ear while he was just about to fall asleep. Joke's on me because it's been...

Stroll The Japanese Classic Car Show Through A VHS Time Warp

Sometimes we take our modern video recording technology for granted. I know I do. Now, I can just use my phone to record a shitty video of some fireworks I’ll never watch again and it’ll be in better quality than anyone had in the ‘90s. But man did those...

What's The Largest Vehicle You've Ever Driven?

The most ungainly, large, cumbersome vehicle I have ever driven was probably a full-size Ford E-Series church van towing a full-size flat trailer with a race car on the back, though I can’t say it actually felt larger than the most recent Mercedes S-Class I’ve driven. Truth be told,...
