Jan Macarol is the responsible editor of the printed and online editions of City Magazine Slovenia.

After the first three quarters of 2025, Porsche has seen its operating profit fall by 99 percent – from €4.03 billion in 2024 to just €40 million. Yes, you read that right: ninety-nine percent. In the automotive world, it’s like a 911 Carrera suddenly losing power on the track – both spectacular and painful.
Toyota has revealed the Corolla Cross Hybrid Nasu Edition concept at the 2025 SEMA Show – a hybrid that has grown tired of city streets and set off for Mount Nasu. The result? A purple, raised and much more adventurous face for Toyota’s most successful compact.
You might have expected your next SUV to be sleek, quiet and almost invisible in traffic. Well, with the GWM Tank 300, such quiet anonymity is already on the “what ifs” list. It disguises itself as an urban crossover, but carries the soul of a true SUV. And that’s exactly what it’s made for – a bad day, a good nature trip or a weekend trip will take on a new dimension. With the courtly touch of a retro-military vehicle and technological equipment that doesn’t disappoint – yes, the TANK 300 is a surprisingly “lifestyle” off-road machine.
Chinese cars! The real automotive battle between traditional and Chinese manufacturers is not taking place in Europe or the US, but in developing countries. China is gradually establishing itself as a serious player in the markets of Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia and Southeast Asia - where buyers are looking for affordable mobility, not prestige.
Multiple supply chain sources predict that Apple will completely overhaul its phone portfolio over the next three years. The book-like foldable iPhone Fold is expected to arrive in 2026, followed by the anniversary bezel-less iPhone 20 - the iPhone without a bezel - and the clamshell iPhone Flip in 2028.
The Panerai Luminor GMT Ceramica is the watch James Bond would wear if Q forbade him from shining. Elegant matte black, precise as a military order and ready for a 300-meter dive – because Panerai still thinks that an everyday meeting can be underwater.
If luxury were a person, it would speak softly and with a British accent. If it had a body, it would be made of white leather and gilded wood. And if it had a soul – it would be called the Rolls-Royce Phantom Centenary Private Collection.
General Motors reports that their hands-free driving system has more than half a million active users, and the safety record is downright impressive: 0 accidents in more than 700 million kilometers.
The Volvo XC60 has long been the king of Swedish roads – the brand’s best-selling model, winning hearts with its blend of elegance and practicality. But the competition is not sleeping: the BMW X3, Mercedes GLC and Audi Q5 are fresh and razor-sharp. Can the updated XC60, with its new look, improved interior and hybrid heart, still keep up? Let’s dive into the details and find out if this Swedish SUV is still in the running for the throne – and why it’s still one of my favorites.
Cars have become smartphones on wheels? Twenty years ago, you bought a BMW so you could say you had a BMW. You started the engine, the sound boomed, the neighbors sighed. Today? Customers are talking about kilowatt hours. About whether the car has a 400-volt or 800-volt architecture. And about how many kilometers you get in fifteen minutes of charging. No one asks how it drives anymore — they ask how it updates. Welcome to the time when cars have become smartphones.
When Timex and The James Brand come together on the same project, something interesting always happens. The first – a classic American watchmaker that knows how to make robust, useful watches for every day. The second – a Portland design house known for minimalism, knives and EDC culture, where aesthetics follow function. The result of their third collaboration is the Automatic GMT Nocturne Edition – a watch that is both technically compelling and visually soothing.
