Ferrari has confirmed today that its last Championship-winning Formula One driver, Kimi Räikkönen, will be returning to the squad for the 2014 season. His new contract lasts for at least two years but that's all we know as no other terms of the deal have been released yet. Honda’s Civic designed for the rest of the world will soon...
The world’s first sanctioned electric car race is now just one year away and at the Frankfurt Auto Show this week we got our first look at the car that will be competing in it. We are, of course, talking about the Formula E Championship, whose inaugural season gets underway in September 2014 and will see at least ten teams racing against...
One of the most popular cars at this week’s Frankfurt Auto Show, the Ferrari 458 Speciale, also happens to be one of the most technologically advanced. There are so many intricate systems present that it’s hard to get a grasp on how the technologies all help make this hardcore 458 variant one of the fastest road cars ever launched by...
Ferrari Formula One driver Felipe Massa has confirmed via Twitter and Instagram that he will leave the team at the end of the current season and that he hopes another team will pick him up for the 2014 season. His replacement will be none other than current Lotus driver Kimi Räikkönen. Räikkönen, of course, won the 2007 World...
The Porsche 918 Spyder deserves the credit for forging the hybrid supercar territory trodden by the likes of Ferrari and McLaren, even if the car's venture to market has been a long one. But that lag time between concept and production has allowed Porsche to attain some pretty spectacular achievements, one of which is the production car lap record...
Nissan executive vice president Andy Palmer has hinted that a concept previewing the automaker’s next Z sports car will be presented at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show in November. Nissan is expected to introduce its new Z next year, as a 2015 model, so the timing makes sense. Palmer made the suggestion during a recent interview with Auto Express...
Jaguar Land Rover is looking to raise the level of technology currently offered by its growing lineup. A new telematics and infotainment system, which has been co-developed by Bosch, will begin to roll out progressively on 2014 model year vehicles. The main idea behind the new system is to add a greater level of connection between the Jaguar and...
The public is about to get its first on-track glimpse of a very different looking--and sounding--race car. Nissan has announced it will be bringing its all-new ZEOD RC extended-range electric racer to Fuji Speedway. During the upcoming FIA World Endurance Championship, the ZEOD RC will take to the track to undergo a demonstration run. This won't...
Nissan’s all-new Rogue crossover made simultaneous debuts yesterday in Nashville, Tennessee as well as at the Frankfurt Auto Show taking place in Germany. Overseas, the new Rogue is called an X-Trail but both versions feature identical styling and a similar list of features. The new Rogue goes on sale in November, as a 2014 model, and is...
There are plenty of cars that we can enjoy here in the United States. Of course, there is a long list of vehicles that remain forbidden fruit for those who love automobiles. Be it insanely high-powered German wagons or low-volume, barely legal road-going race cars, there are vehicles that other portions of the world get to enjoy while we can only...
The Rolls-Royce Phantom came gliding into the world on January 1 back in 2003. Per the automaker, this happened at midnight. Fast forward ten years, and the automaker is ready to signify that event with a rather special Phantom designed to showcase just how luxurious customers can get with the 'Rolls-Royce Bespoke' personalization program. The car...
The eagerly anticipated Audi Sport quattro concept was indeed introduced today at the Frankfurt Auto Show. And while on the surface this concept is a nod to the 30th anniversary of the 1983 Sport quattro, an icon for the brand and in enthusiast circles, its purpose beyond that might be considerably more mainstream. Some reports had already...
When news first broke about the surprise Audi nanuk quattro concept at this week’s Frankfurt Auto Show, some fingers may have been pointed for just a moment—at the close likeness of the nanuk to another concept car from earlier this year: the Giugiaro Parcour. The Parcour was one of the favorite concepts of this year’s Geneva...
Reading about new vehicles from the comfort of your home or office is one thing, but living it with no sleep, not enough showers, and more cups off coffee than you care to admit is a whole different thing. In case you haven't been keeping up, that's exactly what we've been doing for the last 36 hours. From the ridiculously insane Brabus B63S 700...
The Bugatti Veyron has long, long legs. It's been on the market since 2005 in one form or another, evolving over the better part of the past decade from its original 1,000-horsepower specification to a range of Grand Sport, Grand Sport Vitesse, and limited-edition models. A new special edition has joined the flock, having made its debut this week...
