After a false alarm in February, it's now official: the Volvo V90 is retiring, with no direct successor. The future from Gothenburg smells of SUVs, the electric ES90 and – ironically – the return of the XC70 name, which is no longer a station wagon, but an SUV.
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.
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?
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?!
Tesla has indeed launched the return of the Tesla Model Y Performance (2025) into the configurator – and with numbers that would make many a “sports SUV” pretend to be just a family car. Let’s see what the new fast package hides.
We are often asked in the editorial office which car “has chic”. Charisma is not an Excel spreadsheet; it is the way a car greets you, how it turns in a shop window and how it squeezes into that too-tight parking space without drama. Below is my selection of 10 2025 city cars and smaller models that stand out – nine are electric, one is a cute petrol “wildcard”. I wasn’t chasing hundreds on the Nürburgring, but what counts in real life: range, charging, interior usability, design, technology… and a dash of flirtatious confidence.

Xiaomi cars?! What do we get when a tech giant known for smartphones starts making cars? The Xiaomi SU7 – an electric super-sedan that has created quite a stir in its native China.
