While the McLaren 720S Spider has been on the market for quite some time, Harry Metcalfe only recently had the opportunity to feature it on his YouTube channel. As always, his review is comprehensive and covers the exterior and interior design of the car before he heads out onto the street to see what it

There is no denying that the Civic Type R is an excellent hot hatch. It feels good to drive, has loads of power, and one of the best stick shifts out there. But there are compromises to be made for the Limited Edition, all in the name of weight saving. To that end, it loses

When Volvo announced in early July 2017 that it was switching exclusively to EVs and hybrid power, the move seemed pretty bold. Gas prices were low and the first Tesla Model 3 hadn’t quite rolled out of the Fremont plant. Back then, much of the world hadn’t really switched on to the idea of electric-powered cars.

Mercedes-Benz has yet to reveal the production-ready EQS and already, a handful of journalists and YouTubers have had the opportunity to put the car through its paces. This particular video comes from YouTuber Mr. Benz and features a pre-production prototype with a light camouflage finish across its exterior. However, the interior is free of any

There’s a certain amount of romance to the City Turbo II. Not only was it a pocket-sized hot hatch, but it also came with a motorized scooter in the trunk. There are reasons that idea didn’t take off, though. The Honda City Turbo II was the mobility solution for last-mile trips, promising easy transportation to

What kind of vehicle is the 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz? What does it compare to? New for 2022, the Hyundai Santa Cruz exists in the center of a Venn diagram of sedans, SUVs, and pickup trucks. It’s more like a Subaru Baja from 20 years ago than anything on sale now, though its open bed

China consistently produces some of the most weirdest vehicles on the market and the ORA Good Cat, unveiled last year by Great Wall Motors, is among them. Great Wall’s ORA brand exclusively builds electric vehicles and the oddly-named Good Cat is a hatchback with some European design influences, mimicking certain elements of design from vehicles

The new Kia K8 is one of the automaker’s most striking new models and while we won’t get it here in the United States as a replacement to the Cadenza, YouTuber Asian Petrolhead has had the opportunity to test it out in Korea. The first aspect of the new K8 that really catches the eye

While its name may be familiar, the new 2021 Genesis G80 shouldn’t simply be considered a successor to the old car. In fact, it is so superior to the car it replaces that it needs to be viewed through a different lens entirely. It is a proper rival to the likes of the BMW 5-Series

Few car manufacturers produce vehicles as special as Ferrari and while expensive, the 2021 812 GTS is a truly remarkable car, as this review reveals. This clip comes courtesy of Matt Farah and his co-presenter Zack at The Smoking Tire and shows them pushing the car to its limits on some stunning canyon roads near

The stricter emission regulations that push the automotive industry towards an all-electric future make it almost impossible for companies to make vehicles such as the Audi Q7 V12 TDI anymore. The super SUV came out at the 2008 Geneva Motor Show and made its way to dealers towards the end of the year in limited

Most would agree that Honda absolutely nailed the design of the all-electric e, but according to Chris Harris, there are some things that the Japanese carmaker didn’t do so well when creating the electric hatchback. During Top Gear’s 29th season, Harris had the opportunity to test the Honda e and the full review has since

The new Volkswagen Golf R has proven itself to be exceptionally quick off the line and in this video, we find out just how fast it can go. The new Golf R is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder. While this engine is largely the same as the unit used by the MK7.5-generation model, it

Launched in 2017, the Lexus LC500 has proven to be a very capable grand tourer. So why don’t we pay more attention to it? That’s the question posed by one reviewer who recently set out to remind us what such a great car it is. The current LC500 made its first appearance at the 2016

If you can look beyond its controversial looks, the 2021 BMW M3 Competition seems to be a superb sports sedan. Is it enough to impress Harry Metcalfe, however? The veteran automotive journalist has pretty much driven every BMW M car that there has ever been, meaning he is the perfect person to put the new

Many remarkable performance cars have come out of Japan over the decades and of them, the Lexus LFA is one of the finest. Development on the front-engined supercar started in mid-2003 and in January 2005, the first concept of the LFA was unveiled to the world at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.

The Polestar 2 is an extremely important vehicle for the Swedish manufacturer and not long after it touched down in the U.S., Doug DeMuro has had the opportunity to put it through its paces.

The Formentor is Cupra’s first stand-alone model that was developed exclusively for Seat’s performance sub-brand.

A Porsche 911, preferably the Turbo, Turbo S or GT3, would be the ideal sports car for most petrolheads. However, the 718 Cayman isn’t too shabby either, considering that Porsche has further refined it, and if you choose the GTS or GT4, then you probably won’t feel the need to upgrade too soon. This is

The idea of a front-wheel drive hot hatch from BMW might have seemed unthinkable not too long ago, but as it turns out, the 128ti is just that. Unveiled roughly six months ago, the 128ti revives the ‘ti’ (Turismo Internazionale) nameplate used by other BMW models including the 1800 TI, 2002 ti, 323ti Compact, and

What kind of vehicle is the 2022 Kia EV6? What does it compare to? The 2022 Kia EV6 is a battery electric crossover SUV similar to the Hyundai Ioniq 5. Instead of plug-in versions of existing gas models, this new crop of distinct electric SUVs such as the Tesla Model Y, Ford Mustang Mach-E, and

The electric revolution is underway and Ford did the unthinkable when they introduced the Mustang Mach-E. The electric crossover was sacrilege to Mustang enthusiasts, but it didn’t stop thousands of people from placing reservations or prevent the model from being named the 2021 North American Utility Vehicle of the Year. With that in mind, we set

What kind of vehicle is the 2022 Honda Odyssey? What does it compare to? The 2022 Honda Odyssey is a minivan that seats eight with much more space and comfort than most three-row SUVs. It lacks the efficient running gear of the Chrysler Pacifica and Toyota Sienna, and also plays catch-up with the redesigned Kia

The new Genesis G80 and GV80 are the two vehicles that should help to establish the company in the U.S. market as a legitimate rival to the Germans. However, it is likely the 2022 Genesis GV70 that will prove to be the brand’s best-selling model. While journalists in the United States haven’t yet had the

Every now and then, a car comes along that is unlike anything to come before it. The Koenigsegg Gemera is one of those cars. Unveiled 12 months ago, the Gemera is a four-seater that looks like a two-seater and promises hypercar levels of performance. Doug DeMuro recently had the opportunity to check out a prototype

The Charger was first Introduced in 1966 as a stunning yet meaty two-door muscle car that nipped at the ankles of Mustangs and other muscle cars of its era. Of course, back then, the idea of a muscle car with more than a single pair of doors was taboo – people just couldn’t see how

When Mercedes first resurrected Maybach, there was some interest but it ultimately it fell flat. Now, the automaker seems to have finally figured out what to do with the luxury sub-brand. The Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 is the perfect distillation of what the brand is getting right – down to the name, which seems deliberately chosen

It’s time to revisit the decades-old rivalry between two German titans. On one end is the all-wheel drive Audi RS5 Coupe, and at the other is Bavaria’s latest sensation, the rear-wheel drive BMW M4 Competition. Right off the bat, the most controversial topic is the looks of these two models — specifically, the polarizing approach

Sure, the Nissan GT-R may be long in the tooth compared to other supercars, but it is still a very impressive piece of machinery and capable of some pretty remarkable feats. To see what the 2021 GT-R is capable of in flagship Nismo guise, Mat Watson from CarWow jumped behind the wheel of it for

What kind of car is the 2021 Porsche 911? What does it compare to? The 2021 Porsche 911 is one of the longest-running nameplates in automotive history. It’s a coupe, a cabriolet, or a targa with seats for four and near-supercar performance. Rivals include the Audi R8, Jaguar F-Type, and BMW 8-Series. Is the 2021
