New Vehicle Reviews (Page 25)

We test and review the new 2022 BMW 220i coupe and find it sharp in more ways than one.

Elon Musk says when you consider all new things created by Tesla and are not made by other automakers, Tesla is actually more than a dozen startups in one. Here are all the different startups included in the Tesla umbrella.

Tesla and Volkswagen are ready to continue manufacturing electric cars on their Chinese production lines after the mandatory break due to the latest COVID-19 confinements in Shanghai.

We test the 2022 Chevy Equinox and find out why it is so popular.

Tesla's China factory with the entire city of Shanghai is currently under lockdown due to a surge in COVID cases. The factory has now been shut down for 3 weeks and in that time Tesla has lost over $2.5 billion in sales.

One distinguishing feature of the Tesla Model 3 & Y is that the vehicles only come with a single screen for the entire vehicle. However, this might be about to change after a teardown of the vehicles' MCU revealed a currently not in use connector dubbed "2nd display".

As per the latest information available, from now on the leasing of all Tesla models will not allow their purchase at the end of the contract. In the midst of a situation in which the delay in deliveries and the price increase of new vehicles has led to a steady revaluation of second-hand markets, Tesla has decided to change its policy in the leasing contracts for customers in the US.

During the Giga Texas opening event Elon Musk stated that the new Tesla Roadster would rise from the projects put in the fridge, and that it would finally arrive on the market in 2023; an almost traditional announcement that is made at each Tesla event ever since the first presentation of the sports car.

Are you sold on the arguing point that buying an EV means you are “Going Green”? Here’s an interesting new Cybertruck-esque EV that environmentally conscious car shoppers will find themselves hating to love. Plus, why these types of vehicles could be a portent of future EV’s that will not be so green after all.

Tesla has finally given an explanation on why the refreshed Model Y only has a 279-mile range despite sporting the revolutionary 4680 cells and a structural battery pack.

The R within the Golf family is the ultimate version, like the Z06 for the Chevrolet Corvette, the Shelby 500 for the Ford Mustang, etc. And this year, with now 315 horsepower under the hood, more than ever, the word ultimate takes on its full meaning, as does the presence of four-wheel drive. This may be the last Golf R before VW presents an electric version.

Tesla has already delivered the first Model Y units with 4680 battery cells manufactured at the Giga Factory in Austin, Texas; some of its lucky owners didn't want to miss the event in order to tell about them on social media.

In an update to the company's online configurator, Tesla has removed all pricing information for the Roadster. This hints at an upcoming price increase. The EV maker has also sold out of the Founders Series Roadster after making $250 million from reservations.

A big rodeo party for the inauguration of Tesla Giga-Texas led to the discovery of new details about the Cybertruck, the long awaited Tesla electric pick-up.

The 2022 Volvo XC60 T8 Recharge now has more range. It makes this a viable BEV competitor in a green vehicle market begging for a true luxury crossover.

In the past 2 years, prices of lithium have gone up 11 folds. Following this, Tesla CEO Elon Musk now is saying the EV maker is considering entering the lithium mining and extraction business at scale. Musk also added Tesla has pioneered a sustainable process of lithium mining.

Last Thursday was the official inauguration of the new Tesla Giga-factory in Texas; a huge event with the usual paraphernalia, social media frenzy and fireworks included, which also brought a number of interesting news.

Ford Mustang Mach-E GT's top driving mode is called just that: Unbridled. In this review, we will take a look at the different specs and qualities of the 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E GT, which Torque News was test-driving this week.

We test Falken’s WildPeak A/T Trail tires on a popular crossover SUV model. Here’s how to know if these tires are right for you.

The idea is based on the use of a liquid that is basically pumped through the interior of the entire seat, and a series of three layers that allow the flow to permeate through them.

At a recent flyover of Tesla's Texas Gigafactory, we spot two different-sized Cybertruck prototypes parked next to each other. The 2 prototypes were under a car cover still, the difference is easily noticeable.

The BMW i4 M50 is a beast from the former and now current company that sets the bar in sports-sedan excellence.

Tesla's sales data for the first quarter 2022 will be known in a few days: a period in which countless difficulties with the supply chain were in turn aggravated by the war in Ukraine. Nevertheless this is a factor that would not apparently affect Tesla sales, as according to analysts it will be a record-breaking quarter once again.

Volkswagen is basically threatened by Tesla's presence in its own territory; the Trinity Project aims to match Tesla's capabilities in terms of production efficiency, for which they will also start using a Gigapress system.

Ford has a lot going on, right now. Indeed, the offerings can look downright schizophrenic when you take a long look. For example, it has a slew of electric offerings and plans to go all-electric later in the decade. Now, though the automaker is offering both its electrics and internal-combustion versions like its new, entry-level off-roader, the Rattler.

Despite Tesla increasing vehicle production at an incredible pace, demand for the EV maker's vehicles seems to have no end. And in a new sign of the skyrocketing demand, today Tesla inventory tracking sight announced the EV maker ended the quarter with only 17 inventory vehicles in the US.

The official opening for mass media and social media of the Texas Gigafactory in Austin will not be called Giga Fest (like in Giga Berlin), but "Cyber Rodeo". Once again a wink is made to the local culture, in this case with two elements: Cyber in allusion to the style of the future electric pick-up truck that will be manufactured in the Lone Star State, and Rodeo in reference to the Texan traditional cowboy culture.

A recent study by stockapps.com concluded that Tesla is basically a genius company in terms of advertising and creativity, and that spending is 100% allocated to critical areas such as R&D, which directly benefits customers, instead of marketing/advertising, like legacy OEM manufacturers.

The United States Patent Office has officially published the patent for Tesla's laser windshield wipers, a system that automatically detects and removes both water and dirt from windshield glass.

Elon Musk confirmed during Giga Berlin event that Tesla is working on a manganese-based battery cell that due to its properties, could be placed between the more expensive, higher energy capacity NCM/NCA ternary chemicals, and the cheaper LFPs with less range.
