Compact, light, and powerful. That is what the EV motor Koenigsegg designed dubbed Quark offers. The motor only weighs 63 pounds while offering an impressive output of 335 horsepower and 443 lb-ft of torque. ...Published on 01-26-2022 02:03 AM
This is what we eagerly waited for. The Tesla Model S Plaid is the champion and we all know that. However, is the reign to be short lived? The Lucid Air Dream is the newest contender and, well, it is not here to play second fiddle to anyone. ...Published on 01-25-2022 10:58 PM
Another EV versus ICE matchup and a fun one with the most powerful truck on the market taking on the quickest EV truck on the market. You already know the RAM TRX is heavy, powerful, and fast. ...Published on 01-25-2022 12:14 AM
A recent artice on the Porsche Taycan Sport Turismo and the models available in the USA caused a bit of a stir. Initial reports stated that only the Taycan Sport Turismo would come to the USA and suffice it to say this disappointed enthusiasts. ...Published on 01-20-2022 06:52 PM
You could say we are opening up to the idea of EV off-roading. Yes, charging infrastructure is still an issue as is range but for a quick jaunt the Brawley sure seems like fun and a great idea. ...Published on 01-20-2022 06:16 PM
Whether you want to cal the i4 M50 an M car or not electrification undeniably will become a bigger part of the BMW M strategy. It is unavoidable. What we will see happen is more of these comparisons between enthusiasts on each side and even within the same brand. ...Published on 01-20-2022 04:54 PM
Bittersweet. The Porsche Taycan Sport Turismo is arguably the best looking wagon on the market and definitely the best looking EV wagon. We all know how well the Taycan sedan is selling and performing so the US getting the Sport Turismo option is great. ...Published on 01-19-2022 12:09 AM
Videos like this are good to snap Tesla fanboys back into reality. Yes, the Plaid is fast and yes it is the new street car benchmark. However, many of us are here because we do not leave our street cars stock and that is an area the Plaid simply offers no answer. ...Published on 01-18-2022 09:42 PM
The other day a small teaser was posted of a Tesla Model S Plaid showing its peak horsepower figure on the dyno. This got the attention of the owner who was nice enough to send over the full results (including torque) of his Tesla Model S Plaid on the Mainline Prohub dynamometer at Uptown Autosport. ...Published on 01-15-2022 03:32 AM
We all want to see dyno figures from the Model S Plaid. Tesla dyno results in particular do not often match up with the horsepower and torque claims and the Plaid certainly is delivering more than the stated horsepower. ...Published on 01-15-2022 03:22 AM
Another EV versus internal combustion drag race and a pretty good one here. You have two all wheel drive German performance sedans that are two of the best in the game. Some will argue this is past versus future but really it is the present state of EV and internal combustion. ...Published on 01-10-2022 12:52 PM
Over 700 miles on one charge? That would definitely change the EV landscape as well as reception to EV's regarding long distance travel. Well, a Tesla Model S equipped with a battery from Michigan startup Our Next Energy did just that. ...Published on 01-07-2022 06:24 PM
This is admittedly cool and essentially BMW showing off. Is it practical or something we will see in production? No, not any time soon. The technology is very sensitive to temperature changes hence why BMW had a backup car in case the first stopped functioning. ...Published on 01-07-2022 01:21 AM
Wow. Talk about a response to the Ford F-150 Lightning. Seemingly out of nowhere Chevrolet volleyed a major shot at their competition. Introducing the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV truck. ...Published on 01-06-2022 07:54 PM
The EV (electric vehicle) marketplace will likely see more entries from non-traditional source. Some of those sources may have experience with electronics from other areas. SONY would be the perfect example. ...
