Do electric cars really break down more often? A new mega-survey from What Car? magazine surveyed nearly 30,000 drivers to measure which drivetrains end up in tow most often. The result?

When legends get old, they usually get a cake, a retro photo album and maybe a sentimental tear. But Volkswagen has instead baked a brutally fast special edition for its GTI to celebrate its 50th birthday – the Golf GTI Edition 50. The result? 325 horsepower, a lap time of 7:41.27 on the Nürburgring and the fastest production Volkswagen of all time. Who says a midlife crisis doesn't bring benefits?
Anyone who likes a little dust under their wheels and occasionally dreams of driving into the sunset has already found themselves faced with a dilemma: should they choose a rugged overland legend for expeditions to the ends of the earth, or a comfortable mini-camper for small but spontaneous escapades? On the one hand, we are tempted by strictly serious machines like the Land Rover Defender and Toyota Land Cruiser – real off-road gladiators with winches, tents and stature.

Half overlander, half van ... usable every day.

Volkswagen is preparing an electric version of the legendary Golf GTI - the Volkswagen Golf GTI EV, which will preserve the sporty spirit of its predecessors and bring fresh electric energy to the roads.
Auto Shanghai 2025 leaves no doubt – China has become the epicenter of the electric automotive world. While Europe is hustling, the Americans are hustling, and the Japanese are quietly manufacturing in China, Shanghai is buzzing with the electric future. It is now the center of the automotive world. And Europe is only third, right after the USA.
Three concepts, three partners, one market – China. But despite all the excitement, a bitter aftertaste remains: is this a sign of innovation or capitulation to the global dominance of the Asian market? Has Volkswagen completely lost its compass and surrendered to internal negative selection.
Introducing - Top 5 electric cars with the longest range according to WLTP in 2025. Electric cars have made such a technological leap in recent years that even Elon Musk would applaud.
