  • Bugatti Chiron

    The Bugatti Veyron is famous for breaking records, but there’s another record the car broke that Bugatti’s management team probably wished wasn’t so well-known: the huge loss the cars generated with every sale. Bugatti’s Volkswagen Group parent doesn’t release individual financial figures for the brand but an analyst for Sanford Bernstein has previously predicted the loss to be about 4.6 million euros (approximately $5 million) for each Veyron sold. That’s about double the average transaction price for each of the 450 Veyrons built over the past decade. The...

Well, Alfa Romeo has revealed them for the first time and we’re glad to report they look just as sporty as the Quadrifoglio. They include a base Giulia and mid-level...

    Dynamic Digital Suspension, Direct Adaptive Steering, Active Lane Control, and a Drive Mode Selector with more than 300 possibilities. These are all available on the updated 2016 Infiniti Q50. But can a sport sedan with so many electronic nannies have a soul? I traveled to San Antonio, Texas, to drive the new Q50 Red Sport 3.0t 400 and find out. The Q50 isn't all that new for 2016. It was completely redesigned for the 2014 model year and at the time it received an all-new platform, led the way with a new corporate face, and added several of those electronic aids.
