  • 2017 Ferrari California T Handling Speciale

    The Ferrari [NYSE:RACE] California T certainly isn’t lacking in the handling department, but compared to some of its more hardcore siblings the car feels more grand tourer than sports car. That’s all set to change with a new handling pack Ferrari is introducing at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show. The pack has the entirely appropriate name Handling Speciale, or HS for short, and it's designed to enhance a number of areas, especially when you set the car’s drive modes selector, a Manettino in Ferrari-speak, to the Sport setting.

    2016 Softail Slim S Review: Harley's Cruiser Joins The 21st Century

    This is not your typical Harley-Davidson.

  • 2016 BMW X1 seven-seater spy shots – Image via S. Baldauf/SB-Medien

    BMW has already taken the wraps off its second-generation X1 compact crossover but there’s a new seven-seat variant that’s yet to be revealed. This may look like one of the many prototypes that we previously saw for the five-seat X1, but if you look closely you’ll notice that this particular tester is longer. Comparing the latest prototype with official photos of the five-seat X1, the roof is longer and flatter, the rear section is taller, and the wheelbase has clearly been stretched. The shape of the side glass also appears unique to each vehicle. Inside, there should be...

  • Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann and the 2012 Urus SUV concept

    Could an electrified Lamborghini—or Bugatti, or Bentley—arrive any sooner as a result of the Volkswagen diesel scandal? It might be easy to rush to an answer and say that, no, neither of these models currently offer diesel powertrains, and even prior to the scandal, Lamborghini didn’t have any plans to go diesel. But it’s not that simple, as the scandal and its lapses in corporate judgment have already shown far-reaching consequences (and likely the reapportionment of engineering resources) ranging across the Volkswagen Group, from Škoda and Seat to Audi and...
