BMW is out creating new niches yet again, with its latest prototype signaling a premium seven-seat compact MPV is on the horizon. The vehicle is essentially a seven-seat version of the 2016 BMW 2-Series Active Tourer, which features five seats and is the first BMW model to ride on the new UKL...

It still seems a little unbecoming that Aston Martin's personalization division is called 'Q by Aston Martin' (we get it guys, you're proud of all the James Bond stuff...) but there's little doubt that the real-world 'Q branch' turns out some spectacular vehicles. Four of those will appear at the...

Bugatti has just taken the wraps off its final ‘Les Légendes de Bugatti’ special editions, which means we’re almost at the end of the Veyron’s 10-year, 450-car production run. A successor is planned, and we’ve heard it will feature a hybrid powertrain developing...

These are the first spy shots of prototypes for a new high-performance version of the recently revealed BMW X4. BMW isn’t expected to launch a dedicated M version of its small coupe-like crossover; instead, we’re more likely to see an M Performance version positioned just above the...

The Ferrari 458 Italia is already a brilliant car, but for its mid-cycle update engineers will be turning things up a notch. Key among the updates will be a new turbocharged engine.

Both the Aston Martin Rapide S and the Vanquish have a handful of things in common. As they should, considering they're both from the same automaker: styling cues can be traced between each machine; the guttural growl of the 6.0-liter V-12 engine cuts through traffic as quickly as the cars...

The 2014 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance is nearly upon us, and with it will come some of the most amazing automotive hardware on display anywhere. Contributing its new cars to the vintage fold, McLaren Special Operations will show two upgraded vehicles: a 650S Spider and a P1. The MSO 650S...

Look out Porsche, BMW, and Mercedes—there’s a new king of the high-performance SUV hill, and it’s Land Rover. With a documented lap time of 8 minutes, 14 seconds, the 2015 Range Rover Sport SVR lays claim to the title of the world’s fastest production SUV around the...
