I’d also like something that’s nice to drive and relatively efficient given how many trips we take. Some sort of electrification is a huge bonus, too—the globe ain’t getting any cooler, after all. Lastly, although my wife and I would plan on buying an SUV to literally drive into the ground, it holding its value

I suspect no one looks at the X2 and thinks, “I bet that car can carry so much stuff,” and yet there’s more cargo capacity in the back of the X2 than initially meets the eye. Removing the false floor reveals a deep, carpeted well (there’s no spare). The tub does a good job at
Drive the GMC Yukon and the Ford Expedition back-to-back, and Charles Darwin comes to mind. The British naturalist wrote On the Origin of Species, the seminal work on evolutionary science. Darwin died four years before Karl Benz built his Patentwagen and sparked a process of mechanical evolution that would lead to automobiles as fascinatingly diverse
I don’t get all the breathless hype around the 2020 Toyota Supra. Yes, I know it’s quick and sticks to the road like a burr to a blanket. And no, I’m not annoyed that much of it was engineered by BMW. It’s just that, slightly goofball styling aside, it doesn’t move the needle one iota.
Car posters—you probably had one on the wall over your bed before you could drive. And at the heart of each photo lies great photography: a Porsche 911 frozen midair, a Lamborghini Countach basking in golden light, or two Ferrari Testarossas in perfect reflection. Car photography, when done right can inspire an entire generation of

“Before I had the Sequoia, I said [to my oldest son], ‘You get a full scholarship to college and I’ll buy you a brand new car.’ I bought him a Toyota FJ Cruiser. My wife and I were driving it home up on the first snow day up in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, driving on a

Over her desk hangs an oil painting from the communist period in the 1980s that shows the belching smokestacks from two coke plants that used to foul the city’s air. Like the region’s coal mines and textiles, that was an industry that came and went as times changed. Among the key concerns is that electric

Ford just unveiled the second generation of the Focus ST Wagon, and unless you live outside the confines of the United States, you can’t have it. To make matters worse, you can’t even console yourself with the regular Focus ST hatch, because the Blue Oval cut U.S. availability of all sedans and hatches last year.
Elon Musk’s master plan has always had the Model 3 circled in fat red ink as Tesla’s mega-selling, do-or-die affordable car. But since then, those fickle car buyers out there have been having other ideas and ditching their sedans for crossovers. Although the Model 3 has been selling remarkably well nonetheless, it hasn’t been enough

Have you been paying attention to the international moon race going on right now? I’d somehow missed the fact that countries ranging from India and Israel to China and Japan all have moon missions underway or imminent. Yep, Google Israel’s privately funded Beresheet mission, India’s Chandrayaan-2 (complete with lunar rover), and China’s Chang’e-4. That one’s

Acura spokesman Andrew Quillin said the incentive is limited to the 2019 model, “of which there are just a handful of U.S. allocations remaining before we shift focus to [model year 2020]. The incentive provides an enticement to those buyers considering one of the final few build-to-order slots.” Further, when viewed as a percentage of MSRP,
Farmer looked at annual traffic fatalities per mile traveled for each state, and his math shows that a 5-mph increase in the maximum speed limit was associated with an 8 percent increase in the fatality rate on highways. This theory involves more than just transitive mathematical equations. IIHS also adjusted for the unemployment rate, the
Between my daily 45-minute commute and pulling support and transportation duties on out-of-town photo and video shoots, we have been putting some miles on the Atlas.
