We slid behind the wheel of the 2019 Acura NSX supercar for a first drive review. With a tweaked front bumper, more standard features, a better audio system, and a new base tire spec, the NSX is a benchmark in the race to an electrified performance future. Ram introduced a Multifunction Tailgate at the 2019 Chicago Auto Show. The 60/40-split tailgate can open normally or swing open like a barn door to give truck owners easier access to load large, heavy objects. The Multifunction Tailgate will be available in the second quarter of 2019 for $995. The logo and gauge cluster animation for the...

This Week's Top Photos: The 2019 Detroit auto show edition
The Shelby GT500 name made a comeback this week at the 2019 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, and this time it's applied to a 2020 Mustang packing over 700 horsepower.

Mercedes 300SL AMG, 2020 Ford Explorer, 2020 Buick Encore: This Week's Top Photos
It's hard to believe given today's interest in classic cars, but back in the 1990s a few extremely wealthy car enthusiasts with equally extreme levels of poor taste decided to violate original Mercedes-Benz 300SLs by stripping them down and having them rebuilt with modern parts. Thankfully, only 11...

Behold the most powerful naturally aspirated production engine ever produced. The 6.5-liter V-12 is a bespoke unit developed by Cosworth, and it's bound for Aston Martin's Valkyrie hypercar due on the road next year. The engine generates 1,000 horsepower and willingly revs to more than 11,000 rpm, and best of all it sounds like an old-school Formula 1 unit. McLaren now offers an open-top Spider version of its 720S. The changes made to the giant-killing supercar are significant, as the Spider boasts a unique version of McLaren's Monocage carbon fiber tub, as well as flying buttresses made from...

Ford has a version of its Edge crossover with 335 horsepower on tap, and we've just driven one. It's called the Edge ST, and it's the replacement for last year's Edge Sport. Find out what it's like in our first drive review. Another vehicle we tested was Audi's new e-tron, albeit in prototype form only. We found the e-tron to be a promising entry to the electric car arena, especially when you factor in the very reasonable $75,795 starting price. If money's no option then you may want to sample Rolls-Royce's absolutely royal Cullinan. It starts almost $100k above the rival Bentley Bentayga and...

The biggest, baddest Dodge Challenger right now is the SRT Hellcat Redeye. It generates a massive 797 horsepower from the famous Hellcat V-8, thanks in part to the biggest supercharger ever fitted to a production car.

It also comes in black. Audi's new e-tron hasn't been...
