Kia’s electric SUV offers it all: more than enough driving range, a practical interior, and modern tech at an affordable price. The Kia EV3 is a hit in Europe, the UK, and several other parts of the world, and it will finally go on sale in the US soon. Kia EV3 wins over buyers ahead of US launch After the EV3 went on sale in Europe in late 2024, the compact electric SUV quickly became one of the most popular electric vehicles, offering a segment-leading range of up to 375 miles and an affordable price starting at around 36,000 euros…

While America was celebrating Memorial Day this past Monday, Ferrari was gearing up to upset not just fans of the brand, but shareholders, too. We’re sure by now you’ve heard the Italian brand famous for V8 and V12 supercars launched a new EV called the Luce, and to say the response has been mixed would be blatantly false; the overwhelming public opinion has been negative. Ferrari has even been slandered by Enzo Ferrari’s successor. But perhaps the most telling response was that of the stock market, which saw Ferrari shares tank significantly within a day of the new car arriving.…

Efficiency isn’t sexy. And the new electric Ferrari Luce is not efficient, at around 2.7kWh per mile based on its predicted range of 329 miles from the 122kWh battery. The trouble is the Luce looks efficient. We’re told the five-door EV has the lowest drag coefficient of any road-going Ferrari. That’s easy to believe studying that soap-bar slipperiness. 

The biggest car news and reviews, no BS Our free daily newsletter sends the stories that really matter directly to you, every weekday. If you’re like me, when somebody says “Rivian,” an image of a Compass Yellow R1S pops into your brain. That’s an outdated vision, though, since Rivian hasn’t actually offered that color in years. But there’s hope, not only for the school-bus shade but even bolder or more offbeat finishes to return or make their way to the electric truck and SUV maker’s products for the first time. You might have to try to nab ’em quickly before…

Things were already brewing in Munich back in 2009 when BMW showed the world their new Vision EfficientDynamics concept at the Frankfurt Auto Show. EfficientDynamics was the group’s new umbrella name for a basket of technologies that would help the internal combustion engine use less fuel. Two years later, at the 2011 Frankfurt Show, BMW finally showed its hand. The new i8 Concept not only clarified the new sports car’s name, but also the final looks. It’s one of the few cars that made the transition from concept to reality looking mostly the same. The new BMW i8 was a…

Generative AI is quickly becoming a common shopping tool for consumers, influencing how they compare products, search for deals and make purchase decisions, new survey findings show. The survey from Synchrony’s In Sync with Consumers survey found that more than half of consumers, 56 per cent, used generative AI during the 2025 holiday shopping season. Among those users, roughly one‑third relied on AI tools to compare products, while 29 per cent used them to hunt for the best price. The findings suggest AI is moving beyond novelty and becoming a practical aid in everyday purchasing. Price sensitivity remains high across…

Automotive Ferrari has never been a company afraid to stir emotions, but the new Luce EV may be the boldest gamble Maranello has taken in decades. Long before the first customer delivery, the all-electric five-door liftback has already become one of the most polarizing vehicles the brand has ever revealed. From its unconventional proportions to the simple fact that it carries no combustion engine, the Luce has ignited fierce debate among enthusiasts who traditionally associate Ferrari with screaming V12s and exotic styling that ages like fine wine. At an eye-opening price of roughly $640,000, Ferrari is clearly betting…

A right-hand drive version of the Li Mega will be launched in Hong Kong and Singapore by year-end to boost global sales.

The company plans to introduce its pure electric Li i6 SUV (sport utility vehicle) to the European market in the second half of this year, while…

Marathon has become one of those games where the conversation around it becomes louder than the game itself. Behind this new extraction shooter is Bungie’s long development history and old baggage from Destiny 2. And amid rumors of layoffs after the end of Destiny 2, there are people who have already decided that Marathon represents everything wrong with live-service gaming. But some of these reviews are before these players have even extracted once. Now that Bungie has announced its first Open Play Week, this is the perfect time for many to have an original experience with Marathon. Bungie / Bungie…

It might not have four-zone climate control, adaptive LED headlights or a suite of level three autonomy functions, but the Ariel Nomad was worthy of a five-star verdict nonetheless. You see, a five-star rating doesn’t necessarily indicate a perfect car. No vehicle that cheerfully slings mud in its occupants faces, as the Nomad does, could ever be described as perfect. Instead, what a five-star score signifies is a car that is so roundly accomplished at the task it was designed for that we could find no good reason to mark it down. It’s called fitness for purpose. The Nomad is…
