Tesla is adamant it will be able to build and deliver 5,000 units of its Model S electric sedan by the end of the year, despite it only planning to build around 500 examples this quarter to ensure all quality issues are addressed.

Lotus is in ten kinds of disarray at the moment, with CEO Dany Bahar recently canned, owners DRB-Hicom revising the upcoming product plan, and even some speculation over a potential buyout by Volkswagen. But despite all of that, business continues, with the first Exige S production car rolling off...

The 2013 Cadillac XTS is an important car for the brand--though perhaps not as important as the higher-volume ATS--and accordingly, a lot of attention has gone into design and features. This new series of short videos highlights some of the XTS's key offerings. The presence of high-tech ingredients...

F1 test driver and racer Maria de Villota has left the hospital, 17 days after a serious accident during straight-line testing for the Marussa F1 Team.

Production of the 2013 Cadillac ATS is underway, with the first cars to reach dealers this August.

If MINI Cooper models were Mexican food, the Cooper would be mild, the Cooper S would be spicy, and the Cooper S John Cooper Works (JCW) would be extra-spicy. The limited-edition MINI Cooper JCW GP would be “Diablo,” with a heat level that required the signing of a liability waiver...

Development of the ‘991’ generation Porsche 911 GT3 is well underway, with prototypes of the car spotted on numerous occasions across Europe. Interestingly, the prototypes have been testing with barely any camouflage material so we already have a very good idea as to what the new car...

BMW will be embarking on a bold new method of selling cars with the launch of its electrified i3 city car and i8 sports car next year, the first models from the automaker’s new i sub-brand for environmentally friendly vehicles. BMW will reportedly offer the cars to customers online, as well...

Proclaiming drag races to be "Internet gold," Chris Harris proceeds to grace us with a good one: the Porsche 911 GT2 RS against the Ducati 1199 Panigale. He's not wrong. While the GT2 RS packs 611 horsepower at the rear, and weighs 3,170 pounds, the Ducati's power-to-weight ratio is even better...

Lotus has led a troubled existence over the past few years, though some might argue it goes all the way back to the time when Colin Chapman was at the helm, building ever-lighter and more dangerous race cars--all while using drugs and lying about anything that suited him, according to biographer...

The Colorado wildfires that postponed the 2012 running of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb destroyed 600 homes, scorched huge swaths of forest, and generally caused mayhem. For fans of rally there's another loss to tally: Walter Röhrl has canceled his planned entry in the Audi Sport...
