Henrik Fisker Unveils The EMotion Electric Car
The famed car designer, Henrik Fisker, has had some rough bumps along the way. Not going to talk about those here. I am going to talk about the fact that he isn’t giving up. Fisker’s latest electric vehicle (EV) the EMotion has a “theoretical” 400 mile range and a top speed of 161 mph. These […]
Nissan e-NV200 Electric Van WORKSPACe
I am one of the few guys who actually like minivans. I know plenty of moms (and dads) who are driving a bulky SUV with 4-wheel drive just because they can’t get over the minivan stigma. I get it, they aren’t the coolest or fastest vehicles on the road. But hey, they sure are great […]
Sea Sucker Suction Cup Roof Racks
If you have ever installed a roof rack on your vehicle for carrying your extra curricular activities you know how challenging it can be. Think bikes, boats, surfboards, etc… Some cars require drilling holes in the roof or the use of potentially paint scratching window grabber mounts. Not cool. With that said, there are a […]
Hennessey Velociraptor 6X6 Truck
The Hennessey Velociraptor 6X6 Truck. Because, just because! This ridiculously priced animal ($295,000+) starts off as a 2017 Ford Raptor. An extra axle and 20-inch wheels are added, Fox suspension, new roll bar, LED lights, and new bumpers front to back. Why stop there? Opt for the engine upgrade and it takes the 3.5L EcoBoost V6 […]
2018 Honda Civic Type R Prototype
At first glance this 2018 Honda Civic Type R Prototype looks like a teenager spent some time bolting bits onto a stock Civic. Will this prototype make it to market? Will folks buy it? Some of the 2018 Type R Civic bling includes a brushed titanium-satin paint job, a hood scoop, 3-exhaust pipes, vented front […]
Polish EV Heading To The US
First off, this strange looking electric vehicle (EV) is real and has been driving around Poland since 2009. It is all electric and is known as SAM. To me, it reminds of a kids crayon drawing. The front of the car looks like a cartoon monster or bug. After exporting the cars successfully to Germany, the […]
Line-X Coated Watermelon Dropped From 150-Feet
I have heard of watermelons and I have heard of Line-X. However, I have never thought about putting the two together and dropping it from a 150-foot tower. Well, these guys did and the video is worth a watch. By the way, if you haven’t heard of Line-X, it is a tough spray-on coating that […]
NuTonomy And Singapore Release The First Self-Driving Taxis
Both Volvo and Uber have been trying to be the first out with a self-driving taxi. Well, at least the first to deploy it to the real world. One of the biggest hurdles is our fine government and the hurdles they impose on new technology. Solution, head over to Singapore like NuTonomy has done. NuTonomy […]
Tesla Model S P100D
As if the Tesla Model S wasn’t already amazing enough. I would argue it is the best car money can buy today. Well, it just got better. The newest Tesla Model S P100D (as in 100 kWh battery) has a range of 315 miles and a 0-60 time of just 2.5 seconds. Pretty much the […]
Uber To Offer Free Rides In Its Self-Driving Cars This Month
It is no surprise that the ride hailing service (Uber, Lyft, Ride, etc…) that wants to win the war needs to have self-driving cars. Today, having human drivers is the only way to go, but this will surely change. Imagine a fleet of cars that has flawless (mostly, and surely to improve with time) drivers, […]
