There’s a high-stakes X Prize competition running, and this one’s to the moon—literally. We’re taking, of course, about the Google Lunar X Prize, which has been running since 2007 and pits teams against each other in a race to launch, land, and operate a rover on the...

If indeed Nissan execs were displeased by the construction of the original Juke-R four years ago, they have a funny way of showing it. That’s because the Japanese automaker has unveiled a new version at the 2015 Goodwood Festival of Speed currently underway in the U.K., where the vehicle will...

We all know that the Morgan 3 Wheeler is one of the greatest tools that you can use to enter motoring heaven. It's an open-top, reverse-trike, motorcycle-engined marvel that's rooted in the past yet is still able to capture the imaginations of those in the present day. Looking towards the future...

For the past several years, Lexus has been competing in the annual Pikes Peak Hill Climb using a specially-developed IS F sedan called the CCS-R. For this year’s 'Race to the Clouds', Lexus has prepared a new car based on its RC F coupe. The new car is the RC F GT concept, and it may just...

While this year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans rages on, we have some news from the track. French automaker Renault presented a new concept car in Le Mans that previews its new Alpine-branded sports car set for launch in 2016. It’s called the Alpine Celebration, and its arrival also marks 60...

We knew the SRT Tomahawk Vision Gran Turismo wasn't related to the blood-thirsty concept Chrysler released a decade ago. But we can now confirm the digital concept will appear in three versions: the street-spec S, race-spec GTS-R and ultimate-spec X. ALSO SEE: 2016 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R Sounds...

Spoiler alert: We might want it to be, but this Tomahawk has nothing to do with the concept—call it the suicide machine of our dreams—which Dodge debuted a decade ago. CHECK OUT: PSC Reveals Hybrid Supercar, Raises Claimed Output To 2,400 Horsepower That Tomahawk was a two-wheeled...

American supercar startup PSC Motors has kept to its world of revealing a new hybrid supercar by today’s date, but right now it’s hard to believe the company will be able to fulfil its more critical claim of actually building the car. PSC’s car, dubbed the SP-200 SIN, has only...

Despite the challenges of designing and building the world’s next great supercar, there’s no shortage of ambitious startups promising new models to take on the best offerings from established firms such as Ferrari, Lamborghini and McLaren. Some have been successful, such as Koenigsegg...

If you don’t like the way most modern BMWs look, you might find yourself in something of a persecuted minority—depending on the crowd. But after the 2015 BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage, you’ll always win the argument, forever. That’s right, the 3.0 CSL Hommage retroactively erases any...

Toyota raked in $18.1 billion in profit last year on the back of a reliable albeit somewhat dull lineup. We could now see some of those funds invested in building excitement in the brand. The automaker, run by performance-loving president Akio Toyoda, is keen to turn around the rather staid image...

Two more Volkswagen show cars debut for Wörthersee.

Entourage the movie will be airing in a theater near you June 3, and one of the stars of the show will actually be a car, in this case Cadillac’s stunning Ciel four-door convertible that we first saw back in 2011. A previous trailer for the movie showed the Ciel driven by Ken Dillon’s...

Come June of next year Volkswagen’s GTI will have turned 40 and just as it did when the GTI turned 30 and then again when the popular hot hatch turned 35, the German automaker will have something special planned. That special something will be a production version of this GTI Clubsport...

A couple of weeks ago we learned that dormant Italian sports car brand De Tomaso was sold to a Chinese consortium for a little over $1 million, and that the new owner would most likely end up slapping the De Tomaso badge on a sedan built in China, as opposed to a new sports car built in Italy...

The urban landscape of the future will not be filled with gas-drinking machines piloted by humans. We're not sure when the cityscape will change, but it will absolutely reach a point when it's filled with electric-powered, electronically-maneuvered, autonomously guided vehicles. As much as we love...

There are certain concept cars that stand out from the rest. You'll remember them long after the idea of such a vehicle has come and gone without ever inching closer towards production. One such vehicle is the Pontiac Banshee. This was going to be the PMD sibling to Chevrolet's Corvette, and it was...

Austria’s annual Wörthersee Tour tuning fest is on again this month, and Audi is set to be one of the stars thanks to its 600-horsepower TT Clubsport Turbo concept unveiled today. The track-tuned concept looks similar to Audi’s TT Cup racer but it sports a larger 2.5-liter...
