Rivian has just patented a very cool and practical pickup truck accessory idea for the R1T. You know how tonneau covers are basically retractable awnings that pull out to cover a truck bed? Well, if such a cover had compatible mounting points on the roof as well as the bed, it could do double duty

Thirty years ago, the sorts of cars that won Le Mans and the ones you could legally drive through Mulsanne after the race could be more or less the same. Today’s “Le Mans Hypercars” bear a faint link, if any at all, to a product someone could actually buy. But Porsche has dreamt big for

The first, third, and fifth-generation 4Runners are among my all-time favorite vehicles. They have a few key elements in common: Mechanical simplicity, clean and enduring designs, and trick roll-down rear hatch windows. The new sixth-generation 2025 Toyota 4Runner has one of those things. Today’s redesigned T4R is certainly not bad. I enjoyed the heck out

The electric 2026 Volvo EX60 will be the Swedish automaker’s first model to feature its new “multi-adaptive safety belts.” This new-gen seat belt is designed to more effectively protect you in an accident with a rapid download of impending-crash data from external and internal sensors, optimizing for everything from impact speed to your posture while

Lawyers for Tesla have filed a motion asking a judge to throw out a public information request that would require the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to release data about crashes that occurred while its vehicles were under the control of automated or semi-automated driving systems. Tesla misleadingly calls its systems Autopilot and Full-Self

We know the Hemi V8-powered Ram 1500 is officially coming back, there’s one big question: What about the RHO? It’s the brand’s Ford F-150 Raptor fighter that currently uses a high-output Hurricane I6 engine, and while a naturally aspirated V8 version might not be faster, some might argue that it would be better. The Drive

Ram surprised everybody by dropping the V8 from its half-ton truck lineup in 2024. The twin-turbo, 3.0-liter inline-six beats the Hemi in almost every performance metric, but public outcry proved that isn’t what matters to truck buyers. That’s undeniably why Ram is bringing back the 5.7-liter Hemi for 2026, and with every thumping V8 comes

After two years and quite a bit of consternation, everything seems to be turning up Millhouse in the Mopar world. The resistance has spoken: The 5.7-liter Hemi is returning, and it has made its first appearance right where we expected it would—not in a new Dodge performance sedan or coupe, but in the Ram 1500.

The grey restomod Shelby GT500 Mustang known as “Eleanor” from Gone in 60 Seconds is iconic and immediately recognizable to car nerds. It is not, however, distinctive enough to have its likeness protected by copyright, at least according to the appeals court that has finally settled a case around this issue. As of May 27,

Disney’s Magic Kingdom in Florida is getting a new Cars-themed park section with a great-outdoors aesthetic. “Piston Peak National Park” will let people play around in a land full of talking vehicles and do some Disney’ifed off-roading in the Cars universe. As pitched in the Disney Parks Blog: “Imagine an awe-inspiring wilderness filled with towering
