Orange Lamborghini Urus front view

A blazingly quick plug-in hybrid If the mention of “plug-in hybrid” conjures images of Toyota Priuses and family SUVs in your mind, Lamborghini’s Urus SE should be like a powerful magnet wiping your mental hard drive clean. In fact, there are magnets in it, because it has an electric motor. It just happens to be […]

Orange McLaren W1 front view

It’s McLaren’s third “1” in 30 years. Combining modesty with just a dash of hubris, McLaren calls its new W1 the “The real supercar.” Does that mean other supercars are not real, or are not super? With 1,258 horsepower from a plug-in hybrid powertrain and a total vehicle weight of a claimed 3,300 pounds, we’d […]

Yellow Maserati Khamsin front three-quarter view

Last of Maserati’s “Windy” GTs Like fellow Italian exotic car maker Lamborghini, Maserati hit head winds in the late 1970s as economic issues and rising fuel prices took bites out of the exotic car segment. Speaking of winds, Maserati would issue its final front-engine GT of this period, the Khamsin, using the Egyptian name for […]

Green 2025 Bentley Flying Spur on road at night

Bentley’s (almost) silent four-door supercar Bentley is not the first automaker to refer to a sedan as a “four-door supercar,” as it does with the 2025 Flying Spur plug-in hybrid revealed in September. Whether by marketing departments or auto journalists, the term has been bandied about for years on cars like BMW M and Mercedes-AMG […]

Red 2025 Aston Martin Vanquish profile view

Aston Martin Tops Itself Again The all-new 2025 Aston Martin Vanquish will be the most powerful and fastest front-engine Aston Martin ever built. But put that aside for now, because that it is not the most important fact about this car. The real meat of the story is that it will probably be remembered as […]

Blue Lamborghini Temerario profile view

Lamborghini’s brave new “daredevil”  We’ve been waiting for the replacement for the Lamborghini Huracán, and now it’s here. Meet the Temerario. Lamborghini says the car was named for a fighting bull in Spain in the late 1800s and that it is Italian for “very brave.” The literal translation is “reckless” or “daredevil,” but we understand […]

Gray 1960 Ferrari 250 GT California Spider left front

There are always two main avenues of news from Monterey Car Week: the results from the Pebble Beach Concours d’ Elegance and, of course, the results from the major collector-car auctions. There were surprises from both this year. The judges at Pebble Beach awarded top honors to a 1934 Bugatti Type 59 Sports, making it […]

Burgundy Maserati Mexico left front view

Named for a country, this GT was a fast, plush, and rare machine. Maserati has long followed the beat of its own drummer, and for contemporary evidence, look no further than its new-generation GranTurismo, which offers the choice of internal combustion or full EV powertrains in the same body. That bold spirit is deeply rooted […]

Black Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione

More exciting than all its numbers combined In retrospect, the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione proved to be a bit of a tease. This super-limited-production sports car was meant to establish the beachhead for this fabled marque’s return to U.S. shores in 2008. More accessible models would follow two years later, and these impressed driving enthusiasts. […]
