General Motors is officially delaying the unveiling of the GMC Hummer EV, although the company notes the EV pickup truck and SUV models are still scheduled to go on sale in the fall of 2021 as 2022 models. The GMC Hummer’s Super Bowl LIV commercial announced the vehicle’s premiere as May 20, but that date

Here’s something we never expected to see but we’re glad we did: Toyota Gazoo Racing collaborated with McDonald’s in Japan to create a bizarre commercial involving drifting, giant Big Macs, and the Toyota Supra. Why does such a partnership make any sense? We’re just as confused as you are, but the world is a strange

Despite its slick looks, the 2021 Hyundai Elantra packs a snoozer of a powertrain. Sure, the 147-hp 2.0-liter four-cylinder and continuously variable transmission ought to offer enough oomph for the average driver (not to mention reasonable fuel efficiency), but the naturally aspirated engine is far too weak for the speed-addled driving enthusiasts. That’s where the new

Just weeks after the Ford Mustang Mach-E’s vehicle engineering manager, Rob Iorio, told The Detroit News that “You can’t just hit the pause button” on the program, there are rumblings that the pandemic has, in fact, hit the pause button on the Mach-E’s launch. The virus will impact deliveries, with the Detroit Free Press reporting

Photos of the forthcoming BMW iX3 may have just been revealed online. An Instagram user posted what appears to be images of BMW’s production-bound battery-electric crossover SUV sans camouflage. The German brand’s EV X3 looks good in the leaked images, too, which show off the model’s black grille, more aero-friendly front fascia, star-shaped wheels, and blue

We love fast cars at MotorTrend—obviously—but aftermarket horsepower comes with the potential for headaches and voided warranties. Luckily, there’s a plethora of high-horsepower cars (and trucks) out there at MSRPs that won’t make your eyes water. We set an arbitrary cap of $75,000 and then picked some of the most compelling vehicles that made 400 (manufacturer-reported)

Teslas are making surprising appearances in commercial fleets around the world. A little while ago we reported that the Tesla Model 3 has been approved for Taxi Cab duty in New York, and more recently Elon Musk announced that driverless taxis would arrive by the end of 2020. What’s more, Teslas are starting to make

As the world’s largest market for recreational vehicles, the U.S. enjoys a huge variety of options for those looking to go RVing. But when it comes to small, capable campers with cool names, the Japanese market has us beat. Whether it’s their just-right size for #vanlife, their widely available diesel engines and four-wheel drive, their

It’s been two decades since the Toyota Supra was center stage at Toyota dealerships. With the arrival of the all-new A90 generation, believe me when I say we’ve read every one of the “It’s not a real Supra; it’s a BMW with a Toyota badge and body” comments. It’s not, and I wrote a thorough

Sir Stirling Moss, one of the greatest racing drivers of all time, has died in London at the age of 90 after a long illness. Britain’s superstar driver of the 1950s and early ’60s, Moss won 212 of the 529 races he started, including 16 Formula 1 grands prix. Fast and versatile—he would drive 84

It’s obvious that Hot Wheels has some folks on their design team who really get it. What “it” are we referring to?There are all sorts of little nods and winks to various automotive subcultures all over their collections, and the Manga Tuner—part of the 2020 Tooned collection of adorable disproportioned cars—is the perfect example. All

We’ll be the first to admit that our day jobs are neither jobs in the truest sense nor the kind that you can casually dismiss as “day jobs.” We’re not punching time cards like Fred Flintsone after busting rocks all day and we don’t write pointless TPS reports for multiple bosses. If on any given

We love it when East Coast Defender (E.C.D.) shows off a new creation. That’s because the company’s products are generally over-the-top in exactly the sort of way we like. Our friends at Automobile have written about Project Viper in the past—an extreme off-road build for tropical climates. And also Project Invictus, the ultimate overlander with a roof-top

Hennessey announced the Maximus 1000, its Hellcat V-8–powered Jeep Gladiator pickup in May of last year. But after nearly a year of testing—at least some of which took place in the desert—the crazy powerful modified Jeep is finally making its way to perspective owners.  Oh, and Hennessey put together a sweet video showing just how extensive

Sometimes, in between incessant typing and photo editing, some of the editors go back and forth about “this car vs. that car,” and it’s usually based on a couple of past feature cars. So, we got to thinking that it might be fun to see what the fans think by pitting a few of our

If Polestar 1 and Polestar 2, the first vehicles from Volvo’s new Polestar electric-powered performance and sustainable technology brand, have seemed somewhat familiar, that’s understandable. Polestar’s CEO, Thomas Ingenlath, is Volvo’s former design chief, and Polestar design chief Max Missoni is still moonlighting shaping Volvo exteriors. The Polestar Precept concept is designed to move the

Ford Mustangs have developed a bit of a meme-tastic reputation over the last few years, thanks to drivers speeding out of cars and coffee meetups and crashing. It’s a case of those owners pushing their cars past their own abilities. Unfortunately, a recent incident on Angeles Crest Highway in California won’t help shake the stereotype.

If you go to Tesla’s website to order a car today, you’ll find that a new upcoming feature for the brand’s Full Self-Driving Capability (a $7000 add-on promising autonomous capability in the future, but not now). Is it full self-driving? No. But the new addition, dubbed “Recognize and respond to traffic lights and stop signs”

The Land Rover Defender and the Ford Bronco having been reanimated for release into the American automotive population (plus the ongoing popularity of the Jeep Wrangler) serves as proof that public interest in capable 4x4s hasn’t been dampened by the swarm of pavement-oriented crossovers that currently dominate automotive sales charts. To mark this off-road reawakening,

Remember when Japanese cars wore all their features right on their sleeves? Big, bold rocker graphics proclaiming “DOHC 16-VALVE,” “VTEC,” “Twin-Cam,” and that sort of thing. Well, the Isuzu Impulse RS might take the crown for U.S.-market Japanese cars with long-winded decals, with its back panel blaring: “ALL-WHEEL DRIVE INTERCOOLED TURBO.” And it’s all true.

The hype for the Tesla Cybertruck pickup is real. Alas, the production version of the electric truck still isn’t. On the other hand, the classic Volkswagen Type 2 Pick-Up is a fully realized truck that’s available today on the used-car market. Ignore, for the moment, that the VW is powered by a weak gas-fed flat-four cylinder and

It may be a bit unorganized, even chaotic, but the Arsenal of Democracy is gearing up as the auto industry is scrambling to help health care workers fight a pandemic. Politics and confusion aside, carmakers and suppliers are forming partnerships and retooling idled plants to make masks, respirators, ventilators, and protective gear. Despite the voluntary

The Bloodhound LSR team, caretakers of the long-gestating effort to eclipse the 763-mph land-speed record using a jet-powered wheeled missile of the same name, released a really cool video that shows how its car stacks up against representations of a Formula 1 racer, a Bugatti Chiron, and a regular road car in regards to acceleration

Mini is bringing back a stylish special edition that launched way back in 2007. Arriving in dealerships this April, the 2021 Mini Cooper S Convertible Sidewalk Edition receives special wheels, colors, and interior features. The Sidewalk Edition offers two paint color options: Deep Laguna Metallic and Enigmatic Black Metallic. Both hues are complemented by a special

The NTT IndyCar Series on March 26 announced that its biggest race, the Indianapolis 500, is postponed until August 23. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to cause organizers of major events—sporting and otherwise—to search for alternative dates in the hope they can salvage their seasons if spread of the virus is brought under control in time

Morgan managed to squeeze out only four copies of the Plus 4 70th Anniversary Edition before shutting down its U.K. factory over mounting coronavirus concerns. A total of 20 vehicles will eventually be made, all featuring special badges, a gold-painted chassis, and slick Platinum metallic paint—a nod to the 70-years-young Plus 4 nameplate’s platinum anniversary.

The Chevrolet Camaro coupe and convertible enter the 2021 model year with minimal changes according to the bow-tie brand’s fleet order guide.
