NIU, long synonymous with practical urban e-scooters, presents the Concept 06 – a bold vision that, with 20 kW (27 hp) of power and a top speed of 155 km/h (96 mph), goes where conventional scooters don’t go. In addition to the power, it brings a rich technology package, radars, smart projected warning lights and an AI system that analyzes the ride. But because it’s still a concept, important data such as battery, range and charging time remain hidden behind the curtain.
Electric mobility
Chinese brands, which were considered exotic “wannabe” players not so long ago, are now seriously threatening the European giants with price, technology and comfort. And no – this is no longer just a TikTok sensation. Chinese SUVs are breaking the European rules of the game!
When a box gets a roof tent and a ladder, something magical happens: a courier becomes a camper. Meet the Daihatsu KAYOIBAKO‑K Camper Van – the smallest idea from the big Toyota concern, which works hard in the city and escapes to nature on weekends.
EICMA 2025 was not just a trade fair, but a vibrant moto festival. From BMW's little F 450 GS to Ducati's revamped DesertX, from the first electric Honda WN7 to the return of Norton - all accompanied by MotoGP stars, the smell of food, beautiful girls and that energy that the automotive world has long lost.
Miami is once again raising the bar in the world of luxury real estate. If you're willing to shell out $30 million for a penthouse, you'll get the option to purchase a Pagani Utopia Roadster in addition to the luxurious home. For those looking to save a few million, there's also a "more affordable" penthouse available for $28.5 million, with the same option.
The new Renault Twingo E-Tech isn't perfect, but it's magical – in that French way that makes you laugh and a little angry at the same time.
If Volvo and Range Rover had a child who was educated in China and spoke fluent English with a Swedish accent, it would probably be the Lynk & Co 08. A plug-in hybrid SUV that is emerging in Europe as a new branch of the Geely family – the same group that also owns Volvo and Zeekr. And yes, Lynk & Co is here to shake up established European ideas about what premium means. And what a plug-in hybrid can be. So the Lynk & Co 08 test.
The latest concept from Toyota's TRD division isn't just a vision of the future - it's a futuristic camping machine - the Toyota H2-Overlander - for those who swear by off-grid adventures. And it's all about zero emissions and the ability to wash your feet in the middle of the desert with your own exhaust. Literally.
At this year’s Japan Mobility Show 2025, Honda unleashed on the world what could easily be called “a motorcycle from the future that has returned to the present too quickly.” Their Honda EV Outlier Concept is a vision of a motorcycle beyond 2030, and its appearance and philosophy seem alien even today. The long, low, almost floating machine, with darkened translucent panels that reveal its technological soul, looks like something the hero of a cyberpunk movie would ride. But this isn’t science fiction – this is Honda exploring what a motorcycle can become when freed from all the constraints of internal combustion.
Plug-in hybrids, better known as PHEVs, should be the ideal compromise between an electric and a conventional car – something like the automotive version of "having my cake and eating it too". But unfortunately, many owners use them more like a petrol vehicle with a bonus battery, which they charge less often than their smartphone from 2012. And because this results in significantly higher emissions than promised, Germany is considering putting an end to this half-and-half use. The solution? A car that loses power if you don't charge it regularly. Yep, you read that right.
Volvo Cars has once again proven that safety is not just their tradition, but almost a religion. Their new multi-adjustable seatbelt — the Volvo Smart Seatbelt — which will debut in the all-electric Volvo EX60 SUV, has been named one of the best inventions of 2025 by TIME magazine. Yes, we’re talking about a seatbelt that doesn’t just tighten — it thinks.
Car safety – that thing we all praise until the bill comes. In 2025, Euro NCAP showed us again that it’s not all about flashy logos. While some old cats are still skimping on sensors, newcomers from the East are proving that safety can be affordable. And compared to last year, the picture is even more amusing – or tragic, depending on which car you drive.
