"It's the cars. People are obsessed with getting whatever big truck or SUV that has the new year on it. They say it's the safety features... It doesn't make sense."

The electric crossover's battery can be preconditioned for fast charging when using Apple Maps on CarPlay, allowing drivers to stick to Apple's interface for the entire trip.

GEHOcab's EDGE Explorer Trail looks less like something you'd find at an RV dealership and more like a structure designed for a remote research outpost, all hard facets, dark charcoal caps, and angular geometry that refuses to apologize for its size. The two-tone silver and black body reads almost monumental, and parked next to a RAM TRX or an F-150, it turns the truck into something closer to a tactical vehicle than family transportation.

The up-and-coming DC fast charging network backed by several automakers opened its 100th station in the United States, bringing the total number of individual bays to nearly 1,000. That's a big deal for a newcomer that was founded just two years ago and energized its first DC fast chargers in December 2024.

Taxpayers who bought a new car in 2025 can, in some cases, deduct interest on their auto loan. The deduction was created by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which also removed taxes on tips and overtime for qualifying workers, and relevant to new car shoppers eliminated a tax credit for buying electric vehicles.

Inside, the garage is warm and bright. Fluorescent lights hum overhead. Sunlight slips through a single window and lands on the curve of a long gray-and-orange racetrack. The thirty-three feet of plastic run nearly the length of the space, perched on folding tables and reinforced with wooden rails and black mesh safety netting.

We are closely monitoring the developments in the Middle East and the potential implications for our business. At this stage, we have temporarily suspended deliveries in the area, while managing few deliveries via airplane.

VinFast's American ambitions ran high at the beginning of the decade, but they rapidly fell apart after the company found it quite hard to convince buyers to spend their hard-earned money on an electric car made by a newcomer. The fact that the car itself got scathing reviews from established journalists didn't help, either.

Washington has effectively expanded a long-standing loophole that allowed Tesla to sell cars directly to consumers for the past 12 years, but blocked other brands (like Rivian) from doing the same thing. Washingtonians couldn't take test drives or discuss pricing at Rivian showrooms in the state. To actually purchase one, they'd need to do the whole process online or travel out of state.

Arlington is the best street course circuit and event we have in IndyCar right now. It is the benchmark when it comes to the size of the circuit size, the IndyCar paddock, the suites and the overall experience. It really is the complete package, and that showed today with the sold-out crowd.

In the collision repair industry, your visual portfolio is your entire sales pitch. If a stressed vehicle owner visits the website of a local auto body shop, the very first thing they look for is evidence of past miracles. A compelling before and after photo does the heavy lifting of building trust before they ever pick up the phone to ask for an estimate.

Reverse driving accounts for just 1% of all driving time, yet it's responsible for roughly 25% of all accidents. A dirty backup camera in winter, mud season, or on dusty country roads is not a hypothetical inconvenience but a genuine safety liability, one that most drivers have resigned themselves to either living with or solving by stepping out of the car every time.

There's a key reason why many EVs are expensive. Economies of scale just haven't kicked in as they have for gas cars. Over 100-plus years of building dino-burners, we've gotten pretty good at every individual part. There are plenty of firms that can build fuel pumps, turbochargers, alternators, and radiators at scale, leveraging hundreds of thousand-unit volumes to drive per-unit costs down.

Volkswagen's answer has involved using the "ID." preface for its EVs. It's a relatively elegant solution to this issue but one that's also led to other problems. Namely, the numbers used for the series of EVs don't give a sense of what drivers can expect. The ID.4 is an SUV, while the ID.7 is a sedan.
