    Hyundai added the option of an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission to the Veloster N. Does that sap the joy? Nope! In fact, it opens up the appeal of the car to a wider audience. Here in the States, the 2021 Hyundai Veloster N is *the* hot hatch to buy, no doubt about it. [Disclaimer: Hyundai tossed…

    It’s wild to me that someone with the means to do so can simply pop out and pick up a McLaren 765LT. No, not because of the price. There are tons of expensive cars and far too many people with way too much money. What is wild to me is the fact that you don’t…

    2021 Lexus RC-F Fuji Speedway Edition – Sports Car or Grand Tourer?

    comments

    The Lexus RC-F exists in a space somewhere between a sports car and a grand tourer, and the Fuji Speedway Edition attempts to push the needle closer to the sports car side of the equation. It’s a limited-edition machine with polarizing style that produces tremendous noise. Is it worth $100k? Lexus only needs 60 hand…

    The 2021 Ford Mustang Mach 1 is here to fill a hole in the lineup. And it’s one hell of a plug. Gone is the GT350. You can’t afford a GT500. And the Bullitt is fine… but you want more and you’re sick of Highland Green (not really, but play along). The Mach 1 is…

    Ford didn’t need to call it the Mustang Mach-E… but they did, so let’s deal with that. What we have is a good electric vehicle with Mustang-esque design elements. And if you automatically discount it simply because it has pony badges, you’re doing yourself a disservice. The Mach-E is really good. And we can’t wait…

    Infiniti is rolling out some fresh machinery, and the first one up is the QX55. It’s a coupe-ified version of the QX50 crossover. And those are selling well right now. Can Infiniti bite into some of that luxury/premium coupe crossover market space? It’s a strong… maybe, from us on this one. [Disclaimer: Infiniti dropped off…

    Sometime last summer, I used a Porsche Taycan to go on a mini road trip in search of great beer. The Taycan 4S was an amazing machine and it left me wanting to sample the higher-spec versions of this all-electric Porsche. And that’s what’s happening here now. This is long-distance beer run part two and…

    The 2021 Toyota Mirai is a good machine with an extremely limited market. It’s a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle. And right now there are not a lot of places to fill it up. It’s only available for sale in California, in fact. But if demand for hydrogen rises and supply rises to meet it, Toyota…
