As with other automakers, electrification and more stringent emissions regulations steer the fate of the Porsche V-8 on a similar course as the analog clock and the cigarette lighter. The thoroughly refreshed 2024 Porsche Cayenne S has them all, but for how long? Using the electric Porsche Taycan for inspiration, the third-generation refresh of Porsche’s bestselling model represents its most significant update since it was launched new in 2002 to the consternation of Porsche purists. It was an unquestionable success, and Porsche needs it to stay that way. The overhauled Cayenne will be sold

If effortless long distance cruising in an EV is what you’re after, you can’t go wrong with the Q8 e-tron. It’s just been two years since Audi launched the e-tron in India (although it had been available in international markets since 2019), and it has already received a significant makeover. Unlike its ICE counterparts, where the pace of development has slowed down, in the hyperactive EV world, it’s quite the opposite. The speed of change is immense and so is the pressure on automakers to react correspondingly to stay on top of their game. And that’s exactly what Audi has done, along with a

Volkswagen has unveiled a new Peak Edition appearance package for the 2024 Atlas SUV that provides a more rugged look, albeit with no additional off-road capability.

Volkswagen’s current Golf, the Mk8, will be the last to be equipped with an internal-combustion engine, VW brand boss Thomas Schaefer has confirmed. In an interview with

TVS and BMW are already in a partnership, and share the 310 platform that's currently spawned three bikes for the Bavarian bikemaker and one for the Indian manufacturer. Now, according to an investor call, we've learnt that the recently revealed BMW CE 02 has also been designed, developed and built by TVS. This marks the second platform to spawn from this partnership, and the first time that we're seeing this union venture into the space of electric mobility. This is no surprise, since the two companies announced a couple of years ago that they were extending the partnership for future tech

Don’t talk numbers. Among the many threads connecting the Rolls-Royce of the past to the Rolls-Royce of the electric future, one of the most important is the fact that the company’s first production electric car, the Spectre, softens its focus away from the numerical. In a world of acceleration times, lateral Gs, and top-speed bragging rights, not to mention fast-charging specs and range ratings, that may take a bit of adjustment. But it might just lower the blood pressure of the alpha types. That part is nothing new from a brand that for decades referred to its horsepower as “sufficient.”

Acura has revealed the 2024 Integra Type S, which packs improved performance courtesy of a more powerful engine and an upgraded chassis. It’s mechanically similar to the Honda Civic Type R but features a subtler exterior look and a better-equipped interior. Read the Full Story

Screenshot: Regular Car Reviews Regular Car Reviews is known for a few things. First, for being weird, crass and using that voice. Secondly, for providing insightful and sometimes profound criticism not only towards cars but towards the societies and social norms that bred them. This review of the Rivian R1T has plenty of all of the above and, like the best RCR videos, it made me think. Rivian Recalls Nearly Every Car It Has Built See, the main conceit behind Brian’s (aka Mr. Regular) argument is that Rivian wants us to care about what we’re doing to the planet, but in also encouraging

Overview Whether you’re shuttling your heirs to boarding school or hauling home a restock of your wine cellar, the 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLS-class SUV has the space and refinement for such duties. While GLS450 models come with a smooth-running 375-hp turbocharged inline-six, badge snobs will want to go for the more powerful 510-hp GLS580, which boasts a twin-turbo V-8 engine. The GLS is so refined on the road, its off-road capability is a surprising and welcome trait. Mercedes has made sure it’s able to tackle more obstacles than most buyers could dream of taking on. The air suspension can

If you were an engineer looking to build a premium SUV, you’d have a list of wants. You’d want to start with a rear-wheel-drive-based architecture for better handling balance, and you’d add all-wheel drive for all-weather grip. You might want a V-8, but a turbocharged inline-6 would be a great option for its inherent smoothness and ability to create plenty of power. You’d go with a double-wishbone front suspension for better front grip than MacPherson struts and a double-wishbone or multi-link independent rear suspension for a smooth ride. Minus the V-8, Mazda engineers got all of that for
