While critics write obituaries, Tesla is making profits that its competitors can only dream of without advertising and with a "toxic" boss. If the headlines of business newspapers in 2025 were written solely by the editors' feelings, you would probably think that Elon Musk is currently begging for change on the corner of a factory in Berlin, while the CEOs of Volkswagen and BYD drive by in golden carriages. The narrative is clear: "Tesla is old, Tesla is stagnant, Tesla is finished." But Tesla 2025 is officially the biggest miracle in the automotive industry 2025.

Let's be honest. The automotive industry has become a bit... depressed in recent years. All the manufacturers are competing to make the angriest, heaviest, most expensive electric behemoth that takes up as much space on the road as a small studio apartment. And then there's Citroën. The brand that is apparently the only one that still drinks real wine during lunch breaks. They've introduced the Citroën ELO. It's not a car. It's a mobile living room that devoured a McLaren F1 and decided to live in a Decathlon. And you know what? It's absolutely fantastic.
Have you seen that viral photo from 1998? A skinny man in an oversized shirt sitting at a desk with a handwritten Amazon.com logo. Today? Jeff Bezos looks like an action hero in a designer vest and sunglasses that would make Tom Cruise jealous. What happened in between, besides a few hundred billion dollars? It's not just a secret in the stock market. It's an eccentric, sometimes scary, and often bizarre routine that includes octopus for breakfast and an absolute ban on morning alarm clocks.
In the year 2025, where every day they try to sell us glasses that supposedly read our minds and artificial intelligence that writes love letters for us, one indisputable truth remains: the smartphone is still the alpha and omega of our existence. It is our personal computer, our camera and our ticket to the world. And the year 2025? The year 2025 was for phones what 1964 was for the Ford Mustang. A breakthrough. In front of me is an imaginary table full of silicon, glass and promises. And I, in the spirit of automotive journalism, will separate the wheat from the chaff or V12 engines from electric grinders. I have reviewed the specifications, checked the opinions of the world's greatest authorities, such as MKBHD, and added my infallible sense of "tin". Buckle up, we're off at full speed. The best smartphones of 2025!
Some cars and trailers aren't made to get us from point A to point B. They're made to transport us to another era. And the new Airstream? This one will take you straight to the middle of Yellowstone, except you'll be the one with a more comfortable bed than Kevin Costner.
Let's be honest. Humans are masters of distraction. We argue about taxes, about borders, about who insulted whom on Twitter (sorry, Xu), and whether the neighbor's grass is greener. While we're busy with these trivialities, something is happening in the air-conditioned basements of California that will make our arguments a footnote in history. Artificial intelligence (AI) that's better than us is here.
In the name of aerodynamics and range, all-electric SUVs have started to resemble bars of soap that you left in the bathtub for too long. And just when we thought BMW had scooped up all the cream with the new iX3 Neue Klasse (which was unveiled just a month earlier!), Mercedes threw a brick at the table. But what a brick! The new Mercedes-Benz GLB is square, proud, and looks like a scaled-down GLS that just came out of the gym. It's a car for those who want electric but don't want to look like they're driving a space capsule. And to be honest, with its new platform and crazy specs, it threatens to steal the Bavarians' lunch before they can even unwrap it.
Let's face it, the world has become painfully boring. In Europe, we're talking about electric scooters, recycled straws, and how vegan our dashboards are. Meanwhile, in Brazil, a country where "safety distance" is an urban myth and where roads are often just a loose suggestion on a map, Mitsubishi still knows what the word "car" means. They've unveiled the 2026 Mitsubishi Triton Savana. This isn't a city crossover that's afraid of the curb in front of the kindergarten. This is a machine that looks like it could chew up a Toyota Prius and spit it out in the form of a recycled cube. And the best part? Only 80 of them were made. And no, you can't have one.
The Winter Olympics aren’t just a showcase of sporting achievement and medal contention; they’re also a global catwalk, where countries compete for aesthetic supremacy. And when it comes to Milano Cortina 2026, the stakes are even higher – after all, we’re talking about the fashion capital of the world. Ralph Lauren, the uncrowned king of American style, has taken the reins once again, revealing what America’s best athletes will look like when they march under the stars and stripes. Get ready for a style lesson that doesn’t involve any sweat.
In 2026, buying a car is no longer a question of emotions, the smell of gasoline, or the roar of the exhaust pipe. It has become a question of an IQ test and the ability to use a calculator. If you are buying as a company, you are crazy if you do not buy electricity. If you are buying as an individual and live in a house, insisting on gasoline is the same as burning banknotes to heat your neighbor's apartment.
Most people would order a cocktail on a private island when they saw a bank account that exceeds the GDP of most European countries. Jensen Huang? He checks his email at 4am, sweating with anxiety. Welcome to the mind of the man who drives your future.
Admit it. Skiing is no longer just a sport; it's a catwalk at 2,000 meters above sea level. And while the rules were once dictated by the dusty old fashion houses of Paris, a coup d'état has taken place in recent years. A quiet revolution is coming from Sweden, it goes by the name of Montec, and believe me, by 2025, their influence will be impossible to ignore. If you still think the pinnacle of style is the fluorescent jacket of 2010, sit back. It's time for a style lesson that involves coffee, recycled plastic bottles, and a brotherhood that beats corporations.
