What A Real Maybach Looks Like 3 people viewing this @rides By WIG 2 days ago |
I know you young cats think the new Maybachs are the sh*t but they're really just a slightly upgraded S Class.
This right here is a real Maybach. Produced from 2002-2013, this car exudes luxury and class. This is worthy of being chauffered in while the new one is more of a drivers car. Privacy, comfort and all the goodies. I've sat inside this car a few times and it's much more luxurious than the newer S600, despite having older tech. |

2024 Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato: Where Does It Really Belong? 2 people viewing this @rides By NeroNalu 6 days ago |
Mad Max of Newport Beach. Bruce Wayne on a Camping Holiday. These were the comparisons that ran through our head the moment we saw the Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato pull up to our SoCal address for review. Its matte green exterior was quite striking even on a dreary Friday morning as we watched the car slowly roll off the delivery trailer. When we got closer to the car, the above analogies hit even harder as we started hearing the stronger exhaust tones up close, all the while noticing the details that make the Sterrato off-road. We were getting excited. However as we went over the loan agreement, we couldnt help but notice the bold, yellow highlighted text that was quite literally at the top of the document: THIS VEHICLE MUST NOT BE DRIVEN OFF-ROAD. After a few seconds of head-scratching and contemplation of how we were going to do this Test Drive review of an off-road vehicle on road, we stepped in and realized its not the end of the world. Because at the end of the day, most owners will probably drive it to show off around their neighborhood Cars & Coffee, if they even drive it at all, right? So how does this built to go everywhere vehicle fare on the streets of Orange County where youll likely find it? Is it still a Lamborghini, or something much more? We were itching to find out. ↪ https://hypebeast.com/202 .. t-drive-review |

Porsche Introduces the Ultra-High Performance Taycan Turbo GT 4 people viewing this @rides By NeroNalu 6 days ago |
Porsche has just unveiled the Taycan Turbo GT, the highest trim level for the EV sedan thats the most powerful production vehicle the brand has ever made, including all 911 variants and even the 918 hypercar. The Porsche Taycan Turbo GT tops the Turbo S electric vehicle with a specific focus on performance, while maintaining the core elements of the EV sedan. For starters, the Turbo GT outputs up to 1,092 horsepower and 988 lb-ft of torque at its very peak under launch control and with the cars overboost function thanks to a new 900-amp power inverter supplying the juice. 0-60 is accomplished in as fast as 2.2 seconds. Pirelli P Zero R tires wrap each 21 wheel for max performance summer grip, and lightweight Porsche Carbon Composite Brakes (PCCB) come standard to help with intense braking force and fade resistance. Theres even a new Attack Mode feature that provides 120 kW or roughly 160 hp of additional power for overtaking at the most opportune straight aways. In addition, the Taycan Turbo GT will have an optional Weissach Package available, much like the modifications to Porsches previous 918, GT3RS and GT2RS cars. The feature package surprisingly a no-cost option will adorn the rear of the Taycan Turbo GT with an exclusive wing for added downforce, as well as a slew of lightweight deletions. Most noticeably, the rear seats have been removed, as well as the trunks electronic soft-closing system. Rear speakers and BOSE is also removed from the configurations, along with dual charging ports Weissach cars will only have one charge port on the passenger side. Carbon fiber panels also cut weight off of the B-pillars, mirrors, side skirt inlays, carbon bucket front seats (European Market only) and more. In total, the Turbo GT already shaves 157 lbs. off of the the Taycan Turbo S the Weissach is therefore even lighter. All the loss equates to 0-60 in 2.1 seconds and a faster top speed of 190 mph. The Taycan Turbo GT and GT Weissach Package vehicles come with two new exclusive colors Pale Blue Metallic and Purple Sky Metallic for the first year and will be priced at $230,000 USD when it hits dealers this summer. |

Compact Rivian R3 EV Makes Surprise Debut With Awesome Hot Hatch Styling 4 people viewing this @rides By 00010111 2 weeks ago |
Rivian surprised a room full of journalists at the South Coast Theater in Laguna Beach Thursday with the R3a crossover based on the compact SUV the R2 also announced at the same press event. The R3 is five inches shorter than the R2's 115.6-inch wheelbase, but comes with the same options of a Single, Dual, or even Tri Motors. If you go with three motors youll get a crossover with a 3 second 0 to 60 time. Thats absolutely bonkers. The all-new 4,695-cell battery delivers over 300 miles of range on a single charge for both R2 and R3. With a fast charger, owners will be able to get to 80 percent of battery life in just 30 minutes Like the larger Rivians, the new smaller vehicle comes with all sorts of neat storage features. Along with Rivians classic frunk the R3 has an automatic hatchback with a lifting back window the company calls flipper glass. We are so excited about what this sort of delivers beyond what we see in R2, said Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe. It takes the package of R2 and the platform, shrinks it, and is our take on what is a crossover. Its a vehicle that is almost hard to define what it is. ↪ https://jalopnik.com/rivi .. ome-1851316977 |

European crash tester says carmakers must bring back physical controls 4 people viewing this @rides By 00010111 2 weeks ago |
Some progress in the automotive industry is laudable. Cars are safer than ever and more efficient, too. But there are other changes we'd happily leave by the side of the road. That glossy "piano black" trim that's been overused the last few years, for starters. And the industry's overreliance on touchscreens for functions that used to be discrete controls. Well, the automotive safety organization European New Car a*sessment Programme (Euro NCAP) feels the same way about that last one, and it says the controls ought to change in 2026.
"The overuse of touchscreens is an industry-wide problem, with almost every vehicle-maker moving key controls onto central touchscreens, obliging drivers to take their eyes off the road and raising the risk of distraction crashes," said Matthew Avery, Euro NCAP's director of strategic development. "New Euro NCAP tests due in 2026 will encourage manufacturers to use separate, physical controls for basic functions in an intuitive manner, limiting eyes-off-road time and therefore promoting safer driving," he said. Now, Euro NCAP is not insisting on everything being its own button or switch. But the organization wants to see physical controls for turn signals, hazard lights, windshield wipers, the horn, and any SOS features like the European Union's eCall feature. Tesla is probably at greatest risk here, having recently ditched physical stalks that instead move the turn signal functions to haptic buttons on the steering wheel. (Ferrari also has its turn signals on the steering wheel, but Ferrari does not appear in Euro NCAP's database so probably doesn't care.) Euro NCAP is not a government regulator, so it has no power to mandate carmakers use physical controls for those functions. But a five-star safety score from Euro NCAP is a strong selling point, similar to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's coveted Top Safety Pick program here in the US, and it's likely this pressure will be effective. Perhaps someone should start bugging IIHS to do the same. ↪ https://arstechnica.com/c .. res-in-europe/ |

The five worst brands for 2024: 3 people viewing this @rides By JayR04 3 weeks ago |
Consumer Reports rates everything from refrigerators to baby goods and products in between. New cars are a significant part of its business, and the publication recently released its list of recommended cars for 2024. While the top 10 is packed with electrified vehicles this year, the five worst brands have some work to do.
Consumer Reports did its full ranking of major auto brands, and in this post we wanted to focus on the bottom dwellers. The five worst brands for 2024: 30. Rivian 31. GMC 32. Jaguar 33. Land Rover 34. Jeep VW, Maserati, Alfa Romeo, and Mercedes-Benz were also near the bottom of the list. Tesla was nowhere near the bottom five but fell one spot to 18th this year. Ford climbed six places to 17th, which CR said is its best performance since 2016. Cadillac had a tremendous year, jumping 11 places to 14th ↪ https://www.autoblog.com/ .. orts-rankings/ |
