This isn't just a buggy. This is a California fantasy that ate Weissach for breakfast: the OTTO WERKS Meyers Manx Buggy with a 2.2-liter Willhoit engine, 170 hp, and details from a 356. In Ivy Green, it hits a nerve. Five examples. All already sold.
Red Yacht Design is launching a new brand, Manari Yachts, with its first model, the Manari 52, a Mediterranean day boat with folding sides and a balcony alongside, and an IPS drive that promises up to 44.6 knots. In the 52-foot class, it bets on design, speed and rarity.
Audi has been teasing on social media, and Canada has inadvertently pressed “announce.” The new electric sports concept – dubbed the Audi TT Moment 2.0 – will be officially revealed ahead of the IAA Mobility show in Munich. And yes, they’re promising a production version within two years.
Tesla announced Tesla Master Plan 4 at X on September 1, emphasizing “sustainable abundance” through artificial intelligence, robotics (Optimus), and autonomy. The document is ambitious, but without clear milestones. Reactions are divided: supporters celebrate the “physical arrival of AI,” skeptics recall unfinished goals from the past and declining vehicle sales.
The redesigned 2025 Tesla Model S Plaid is faster, smarter, and more comfortable than ever before – and yes, it can do 0 to 100 km/h in less than two seconds. In a four-door sedan body. No activation button. Just like that.
In a world where electric cars are getting bigger and more expensive, Hyundai is surprising with a small hero. The Hyundai Ioniq 2 will be unveiled at the IAA in Munich in September 2025, promising accessibility and fun for city drivers. Will this finally be an EV that everyone can afford?
Some restomods sell you chrome and nostalgia. The Oshe Zambezi Defender sells you a story: African art and British engineering in one, with the deep bass of an eight-cylinder and the feeling that you just parked in a gallery.
The Volkswagen Grand California Dune – is a large camper that looks like it escaped from the Sahara dunes straight onto the highways of Europe. In 2026, it gets a special edition that adds a little off-road charm to the already solid Crafter base. It’s not a revolutionary thing that will change the world, but a smart upgrade for those who want the comfort of a hotel on wheels without giving up a sense of adventure. If you’ve ever dreamed of a road trip where neither a sand dune (with reservations) nor a rainy day will stop you, this is your van. But let’s be honest: in the age of electric dreams, the diesel giant is still the king of the long haul. Ironic, right? But I find something positive in it – finally a camper that looks like it can handle more than just a supermarket parking lot. And that’s what I expected from Volkswagen.
Europe and China are competing in 800-volt headlines, but Tesla insists on 400 V – because it sees how we really charge. Fifteen minutes for ~250–275 km? For most, that's it. Let's look at the numbers and what the industry, which sometimes loves megawatts too much, can learn from them. So - why doesn't Tesla need 800 V to beat everyone else?!

The new EU-US agreement opens up the market for American vehicles. Among them is Elon's legendary pickup truck, which could be rumbling on European roads this year. So the Tesla Cybertruck is coming to Europe?!
Porsche has prepared something very special for the Netherlands: the unique Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Manthey Kit “De Tulp”, affectionately called De Tulp. Pastel orange, tulips on the bodywork and even faster times on the Nürburgring. Yes, the Germans have gone all Dutch for now.
