Ferrari [NYSE:RACE] has a new CEO in the form of Sergio Marchionne. He’s faced with the challenge of growing revenues while maintaining exclusivity of the brand.

BMW’s X5 receives a plug-in hybrid option for the 2016 model year. The vehicle has an electric range of 14 miles though for things to feel normal behind the wheel you’ll want both the electric motor and internal combustion engine working.

A prototype for Mercedes-Benz’s upcoming pickup truck has been spotted. Unfortunately, the vehicle is yet to be confirmed for sale in the United States.
