Your Old Land Rover Just Got Quiet, Scary, and Very, Very Expensive
They did what now? They took a classic Land Rover Defender - a machine powered by noise and mud - and made it electric. And not just any electric. They put the motors in the wheels. The result? Nearly 500 horsepower, enough torque to restart a dead planet, and a 153-mile range that’s perfect for a trip to your mailbox. It’s silent, it’s brilliant, it’s coming to America, and you’ll almost certainly need to sell your house to afford one.

Behold the Aptera! The three-wheeled wonder that promises free miles from the sun, assuming you live on a desert island and your commute involves rotating in your driveway.

When a Mustang Learns to Fly…
Ever wondered what happens when a Mustang gets a caffeine IV drip and learns to fly? Ford's latest electric Pikes Peak monster, the Super Mustang Mach-E, is here to show us, boasting 1,421 horsepower and enough downforce to flatten a small car. It's so fast, it might just achieve orbit!

An Electric Toaster on Wheels Called Super EV is Coming to Goodwood
Honda’s new Super EV Concept is the electric hero we didn’t know we needed. It’s a tiny, pug-faced hatchback with flared wheel arches and the personality of a caffeinated Jack Russell terrier. If Honda can give it a decent range and a sane price, this little electric toaster might just conquer the world. Or at least, the nearest parking space.
Porsche's Electric Family Sedan Threw Out the Kids and Broke a Record
Porsche got tired of other EVs stealing its lunch money, so it sent the 1,019 hp Taycan Turbo GT to Road Atlanta. It proceeded to absolutely demolish the old record, mostly to prove a point. The car is brilliant, a little bit crazy, and has officially made the EV playground interesting again. It also costs more than an average house.
Bugatti Strapped a Power Station to a V16 Engine. Brilliant
The new Bugatti Tourbillon is a hybrid, which almost made me cry. Then I learned it’s a hybrid unlike any before it. It has a monstrous, naturally-aspirated V16 engine, but now it’s got three electric motors for a total of 1,800 horsepower. It’s lighter, faster, and more wonderfully absurd than ever. And I absolutely love it.
The First Electric GTI Is Here And… It Is French
Peugeot just gatecrashed VW's electric GTI party with the feisty E-208 GTI. It's faster to 60 mph than a Mini JCW and stuffed with design nods to the legendary 205 GTI. With a range that would make a homing pigeon nervous and a price tag of around $46,000 - is this just a very short-range toy? The French have thrown down the gauntlet, and it's covered in red stitching.
Hyundai Called It a "Corner Rascal," and Suddenly, I'm Interested
Hyundai gave a 641-horsepower electric sedan a massive wing and then had the gall to call it a "Corner Rascal." A rascal? That's not a marketing term; it's what you call a naughty puppy. And I love it. Hyundai's Ioniq 6 N isn't just another silent appliance; it's a tire-smoking, hooligan machine that might just be the most exciting EV yet.
Chinese Phone Company Just Humiliated Every Supercar on Earth
My world is shaken. A phone company just built the fastest sedan on Earth. The Xiaomi SU7 Ultra lapped the Nürburgring faster than a $2M Rimac and a Porsche Taycan GT. With 1,548 hp and a 0-62 time of 1.98 seconds, it’s not a car - it's a teleportation device with a warranty. The old guard of supercars has officially been put on notice by the same people who make your fitness tracker.
Toyota's New EV Has Supermodel Looks, a Ph.D. in Tech, and a Tiny Price Tag... And You Can't Have One
Toyota built my dream electric SUV! It's gorgeous, smart, and costs less than a year of college. It has lie-flat seats for when you faint at the price. The catch? It's only for China. I'm not crying, you're crying. Let's look at the amazing EV we can't have. It's the best kind of torture.
A Half-Million-Dollar EV with a Bonsai Tree? Sign Me Up
Tired of boring EVs? A New York startup is building a $500,000 electric car with 800 horsepower, a wooden hood, and an interior you can change with the seasons. Oh, and it has an optional bonsai tree growing in the center console. This gloriously weird, half-million-dollar statement makes every other luxury EV look painfully sensible. I desperately hope they actually build it.
The 1,500 Horsepower Phone Car Is Real, And Soon You'll Be Able to Drive It… In Gran Turismo 7

519 Horsepower in a Cocktail Dress - Meet the Cadillac Optiq-V
Cadillac's new baby, the Optiq-V, is here to crash the electric party. It's got 519 horsepower to embarrass sports cars and a NACS port to finally make friends with Tesla. It’s a bit hefty and the range is... "adequate," but it promises to be a "canyon carver" in a cocktail dress. Can this Caddy dance?
An American Invader on the German Autobahn? Now I've Seen Everything
An American EV startup is launching its 1,100-hp, 200-mph electric crossover… in Germany. Yes, really. The Mullen FIVE RS plans to take on the autobahn before it ever sees a US highway. It’s a plan so bonkers you have to admire it. With serious German engineering partners and hypercar-level specs, this might just be the most brilliantly absurd automotive story of the decade. I’m hooked.
Charged Up in 18 Seconds? This Is Either Witchcraft or Brilliant Engineering
Tired of EV charging times longer than a Game of Thrones wedding? A UK firm claims their new hypercar battery, the VarEVolt, charges in just 18 SECONDS. It's got the 'world's highest power density,' can unleash fury in hypercars, and might just make your kettle jealous. Is it witchcraft or the future?
Pininfarina's Wild Battista Sings Its Electric Swan Song
Pininfarina's 95th bash? A one-off, $3M+ electric Battista Novantacinque! 1900 hp, 0-62 in 1.89s, and enough gold to make a pharaoh blush. It’s a glorious, red-tinted carbon fiber rocket. Perfect in every sense. My kind of sensible!
Geely Galaxy A7 PHEV Is A Hybrid With 1,300 Miles Of "Are You Kidding Me?"
China's done it again! Geely's Galaxy A7 PHEV: a sedan so boringly sensible it's brilliant. Claims over 1,300 miles of range for about $14,000! Is it real or a tech daydream? This Camry-lookalike packs enough total mileage to make your bladder nervous. If true, it’s a game-changer, even if it never leaves China.
