Fuel prices are climbing again, and you're thinking about finally switching to something more fuel-efficient. Electric? Hybrid? The one you plug into the socket? And what the hell is a mild hybrid anyway? Don't panic. Here's a quick, honest guide to all the technologies - no marketing bluff and no fluff. The goal is one: to avoid buying a car you'll be looking down on in two years.
The updated Exeed Exlantix ES (2026) offers up to 860 km of range, a 97.7 kWh battery, the Falcon 700 system with LiDAR, and 0–100 km/h acceleration in 4.9 seconds – but almost no one is buying it. Review of the Chinese premium sedan from Chery.
While we in Europe are still spinning in circles about technological neutrality, banning internal combustion engines and protecting traditional manufacturers, China has done something completely different – it has sat down at the table and written a plan. Its new five-year plan for 2026-2030 sets out exactly how it intends to become a global “energy superpower” by the end of the decade. And if history is any indication, in five years’ time many will be amazed at how far China has come in such a short space of time.
If you thought SUVs were just oversized shopping carts these days, think again. Ford and Filson have created the Bronco, which has the heart of a monstrous Raptor but wears an opera suit. A true machine where raw power meets heritage, and where off-road beasts have never been so damn stylish.
Rolls-Royce has proven with the Spectre that going electric doesn't mean giving up luxury. With the second series of the model – the Spectre Series II – the British brand from Goodwood goes a step further: it presents the most powerful production Rolls-Royce ever, yet remains so quiet that it could be mistaken for a ghost. The name "Spectre" in this context is no coincidence.
The air-cooled restomod scene has become a veritable arms race in recent years. Every week there's a new workshop promising even more horsepower, even bigger turbos and even more insane acceleration. And right in the middle of all this noise stands the British house Theon Design from Oxfordshire, playing by its own rules. Instead of chasing the highest number on the power meter, these Brits obsessively deal with scale, balance and a level of personalization that shamelessly defies the famous Singer.
Anthropic Claude: When the creators of the smartest digital hypercar ask the world to hit the brakes
Imagine a car manufacturer standing up at the premiere of a 2,000-horsepower supercar and saying, "Maybe we should calm down." That's exactly what Anthropic did with its Claude model. We're on the cusp of an era where artificial intelligence can improve its own engine. Is this the end of human engineering, or just a brilliant marketing ploy to make billions?
Did you think Audi gave up on the R8 and just focused on making electrical boxes? Meet the Audi Nuvolari, a 987-horsepower supercar that proves that Germany can still make a car that's mind-blowing. Take your time, because only 499 of these technological masterpieces will be made.
Before they started making the world's fastest motorcycles, Ducati assembled radio components. One hundred years later, in Mugello, they unveiled the Collezione 100 - ten machines that prove that no one knows how to celebrate with more style, noise and pure passion than the Italians. It is... the Ducati Collezione 100.
There's a moment every automotive journalist knows: the one when they read the price and are momentarily speechless. Not from surprise, but from the feeling that someone on the other side of the world is doing something that should almost be banned. The BYD Sealion 06 DM-i 2026 is that moment.
After four decades of silence, Lancia is back — and not on tiptoe. The new Lancia Gamma 2026 is a fastback SUV on the STLA Medium platform, with outputs of up to 276 kW or 375 hp and a range of up to 1,000 km in hybrid version. The Italians have struck back. With velvet gloves.
The Ferrari Luce is here, half the automotive world hates it, the other half doesn't understand it, but I bet it will become one of the most successful models in the brand's history. Not despite it being impossible. But precisely because of it. And because none of the critics really know what luxury even is.
