Utility terrain vehicles, otherwise known as UTVs or side-by-sides, are evolving. They’re already far beyond the primordial ooze stage, rapidly advancing to become more capable, more comfortable, and way more expensive. It wasn’t long ago that a $30,000 chore buggy seemed unthinkable—”Why wouldn’t you buy a pickup for that money?”—but we’re way past that now.

Last week, I told you that I’d be driving a 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport for a few months. I explained that the purpose of this long-term review is to explore the many details, quirks, positives, and negatives that are often ignored during a typical weeklong test drive. My experience will take place during my everyday

Ram trucks are synonymous with the Hemi, but the Hurricane inline-six is the real barnburner. Sure, the brand is currently on an apology tour after ditching the V8 for a while, though it still can’t touch the boosted 3.0-liter’s power specs. We’re only just starting to see the turbo engine’s tuning potential, and right now,

Oh, the iDrive knob. BMW‘s dial was an innovative attempt at improving ease of control for all the new conveniences cars began to offer about 25 years ago. But it’s been steeped in so much discourse over that time that I honestly don’t know where people stand on it anymore. What will be its legacy?

Formula 1 returned to the Netherlands after a lengthy summer break, and is now readying for one of the biggest weekends of the year: the Italian Grand Prix. While the season resumed with 72 laps showcasing Ferrari’s routine bad luck, Isack Hadjar’s rookie podium, and an increasingly tight title fight, all eyes remained fixed on

Good morning and welcome to The Downshift, or TDS for short. TDS is your daily one-stop shop for all the auto industry headlines from around the world fit to print. In the old days, before the internet, a kid on a bicycle would throw a rolled-up copy at your door, and you’d sit and read it at your

The 2026 Honda Prelude was made official today, and it’s understandably garnering some mixed opinions from our readers. It’s a curious mix of specs: a peppy but not potent hybrid powertrain, coupled with the suspension and brakes of a Civic Type R. How attractive it’ll be to buyers will largely depend on how expensive it

You’ve got to tread carefully when you’re reviving an automotive icon these days. Plenty of companies are doing it, though not always in the most faithful way. Honda seems to have the right idea with the new Prelude, though: a stylish coupe intended to be fun but not overwhelming to drive, armed with modern tech

The nationality of a car company is a big part of its identity to many enthusiasts. I know I have strong associations between BMW and Germany, Ford and America, Ferrari and Italy, and so on. But the automotive industry is a globalized one. British supercar maker McLaren, in particular, is entering an increasingly international era.

For a long time, cars had faces: two headlights for eyes, and a grille for a mouth. Many brands have been deconstructing that convention as of late, separating daytime running lights from projectors low down, and—in the case of EVs—deleting the grille entirely, because it isn’t needed. Lamborghini, though, isn’t many brands. The new Fenomeno
