In March of this year, we learned Ferrari was working on an even sharper-handling version of the Purosangue. Already an extraordinary sports car in SUV drag, the Purosangue is now available with a new Handling Speciale configuration. Available on request, the package retains the 715-horsepower output of the V12 but enhances the vehicle’s responses, the sound of the already explosive engine, and the handling characteristics. There are also a few new styling flourishes to distinguish this sportier

Production History It's hard to trace the production history of cars, even with things like VIN numbers and production records. This is especially difficult for cars that weren't limited-edition models; some can reach hundreds, thousands, and more. However, in the off chance that a special car comes up for sale and the auction house runs its background check, interesting details come to light. A very special Ferrari is now listed for sale, and it has a very unique distinction.

Sir Jony Ive Is Nervous About Showing The World Ferrari’s First EV Sir Jony Ive has admitted he is “anxious” about unveiling the Ferrari Luce, according to an interview with Autocar. That anxiety is understandable. This is Ferrari’s first fully electric model, and the expectations surrounding it are immense. Ive, best known for shaping the iMac G3, iPod, and iPhone, now finds himself responsible for influencing the future visual identity of the Prancing Horse in the EV era. So far, Ferrari has o

Not All Launches Go Smoothly Ferrari’s all-new electric vehicle, the Luce, appears to be on track for launch, with the company teasing interior details and even releasing a YouTube series ahead of its debut. However, a potential hurdle has emerged after Mazda filed a trademark for “Luce” in Japan, which could force Ferrari to fight for the nameplate. The Prancing Horse chose the name Luce because it is the Italian word for “light,” a fitting choice for a fully electric model that won’t feature t

Ferrari’s on a model launch spree like never before, preparing to launch no fewer than five new models by the end of 2026. Some of those are truly significant, like the brand’s first ever EV, the Luce. A bit less of a watershed moment in the company’s history, but – let’s be honest – much more appealing is the car it’s unveiled today, though: the Amalfi Spider. A drop-top version

An Open-Top Surprise Ferrari is reportedly set to unveil five new models this year, and one of them could be a convertible version of the Amalfi. According to The Supercar Blog, the Italian marque is expected to introduce the Amalfi Spider in the first half of March 2026. If accurate, it would effectively serve as the successor to the Roma Spider. The Amalfi Spider is expected to closely mirror the coupe, which debuted last year as Ferrari’s newest entry-level offering. As with most convertibles

Breaking Away from Tradition For as long as internal combustion engines have existed, pistons have been round. This wasn't necessarily because circular shapes were optimal for performance. It was simply the easiest and most cost-effective geometry to manufacture with the machinery available when engines were first being developed. Manufacturing technology has evolved dramatically since then, yet piston design has remained stubbornly circular.

Round 2 of the FIA World Endurance Championships was held at SPA, aka Circuit of Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium, and did not disappoint. This is an epic race track, and the action here is always great, and this series is fun to watch. Check out all the racing action highlights in the video below and let us know what you think.

The Price Is Right? EV sales have been stagnant as of late, while the current crisis in stable oil prices has prompted buyers to consider EVs, sales haven't really exploded just yet. Key indicators of the overall EV sales slump have mostly pointed to the cost of these vehicles. In fact, most argue that EVs are now cheaper than gasoline, but advise looking at secondhand options rather than brand-new ones. Given that price is a big factor for buyers, it would make sense to keep prices low to entic

Pocket-Sized Fiat Crossing the Atlantic Fiat is betting that Americans are finally ready for its smallest car yet. The Fiat Topolino, a pint-sized electric city car that's become a common sight in Europe, is officially coming to the US. The announcement slipped out during Art Week Miami, where Fiat unveiled a one-of-one artist collaboration designed by Romero Britto, but the bigger news came straight from the brand's CEO. "The Fiat Topolino, our small, joyful, colorful car that is now everywhere

Last year, Cadillac confirmed that its CT4 sedan would go out of production in June 2026. However, anyone interested in one of these compact sedans has even less time to buy one, as GM Authority has confirmed that order books for the CT4 will close during the week of April 20, 2026. That gives you roughly two months to order the last sedan of its kind—there isn’t another small, gas-powered sedan from an American automaker on sale in the United States.  Related: Don’t Buy The Wrong 2026 Cadillac

A 2016 Land Rover Defender 90 Heritage with just 4,597 miles and a unique place in Solihull history is up for auction on Collecting Cars. This Grasmere Green station wagon is confirmed as the final Heritage Edition to leave the factory and the fourth-to-last Defender of any kind to roll off the line, making it one of the most significant late L316s to hit the market in recent years.

When Freiburger and Finnegan weren’t able to be at the WireCare booth during the PRI Show where they were supposed to rewire the Rotsun, Finnegan stepped in and said “Hold my beer.” Video Description: Welcome to Newbern’s Garage. In this episode I haul the Famous Roadkill Rotsun from Georgia to Indy for PRI 2025. As it shined bright among all the other cars in the building, the fun began when it was time to leave. The snow came down and tempers flared. It was quite an experience. The post

Finnegan’s Caddy is one of the more talked about projects from the Finnegan’s Garage channel, and is also one of the projects he’s most looking forward to. The plan is for this thing to run 8’s and be able to haul him and three buddies in it for a drag and drive event. I think it’s a great project, and it’s going to be a real head turner. I can’t wait to go for a ride. But as you know, this project has run into all kinds of delays and snags over the years so sometimes it is little things that ma

EV Fire is Brutal There’s a longstanding concern around electric vehicles catching fire, and a recent incident at a BYD facility in China underscores those worries. According to CarNewsChina, BYD’s Pingshan facility in Shenzhen experienced a fire on Tuesday, with dense smoke seen rising from a multi-level parking structure. Fortunately, no casualties were reported in the incident. BYD clarified that the parking area contained only “test and scrapped vehicles,” meaning no customer cars were affec

Flames Where Supercars Sleep Calgary Herald reported that a high-end auto shop caught fire in South Calgary, Canada, on Monday. The incident began around 4:30 a.m., with the Calgary Fire Department responding with as many as 75 firefighters and 25 fire trucks to contain the blaze. Reports indicate that hybrid or electric vehicles may have been involved, which can make fires more difficult to extinguish because lithium-ion battery packs can pose a thermal runaway risk. However, the exact models a

Fired From Work, Then Things Escalated Troubling incidents involving car dealerships often involve disputes with manufacturers or incidents like large-scale thefts. This Ford dealership in Clay, New York, however, is dealing with an unusual case after a former employee allegedly fired shots at the showroom and slashed several tires. According to CNY Central, Dylan Young, 26, had been fired from Davidson Ford of Clay for insubordination before allegedly committing the act, which is believed to ha

Canada Opens the Door – And Chinese Brands Are Already Lining Up Earlier this year, Canada struck a new trade agreement with China that effectively lowered tariffs on Chinese-built electric vehicles. The deal allows up to 49,000 China-made EVs to enter the country at the standard “most-favoured nation” tariff rate. Predictably, Donald Trump slammed the deal and threatened higher tariffs if Chinese EVs try to cross into the US from Canada. But for now, Ottawa and Beijing are moving ahead, and Chi

I like a good Cummins as much as the next guy, but this is a bit over the top. Of course it won’t surprise you since it is coming from Westen Champlin, but at the same time it is taking the Cummins swap the world mantra a bit far don’t you think? It even has a neighbor hater sticking out of the hood. This beast is torn up, from its life before Westen got it, but their plan is to make this thing good again. Watch the three videos below to get all the back story, starting with the first video on

Hybrids are taking center stage again Honda is no stranger to hybrids. Its current lineup consists of four hybrids and a fuel-cell EV, which we’ll give it credit for as a hybrid. Recently, the company announced “next-generation technologies” it planned to launch through 2030, and hybrid tech took center stage. Like most automakers, Honda seemed bullish on EVs, but now it’s focusing on hybrids. Ford recently made a similar pivot, reducing its focus on electrified vehicles and eyeing more hybrids

David Spade is a hell of a car guy and has bought and sold many cars at Barrett-Jackson, but this one might be his biggest. In size that is. This dentside 1978 Ford F250 Ranger XLT is something special. With the crew cab and the lift, this is a pretty rad truck. It’s powered by the 400 as well, and with creature comforts and all that wheelbase it should be a pretty nice driving rig going down the road. If you think you need to own it, register now as it is going up for auction at Barrett-Jackson

BMW’s first Neue Klasse vehicle, the iX3, has gotten off to a strong start. Demand for the electric SUV has been high and its on-paper range and efficiency specifications are excellent. It all bodes well for the new iX1, the iX3’s smaller sibling that will adopt the same design language and technological advancements seen in the iX3. Our spies captured the first images of the iX1 a few months ago, and now we’ve got our first glimpse of its high-tech interior. Related: 5 Coolest Features Of The A

First Look At The Cabin Nissan Didn’t Show The Nissan Rogue, known as the X-Trail in other markets, is about to enter a new generation for 2027. This isn’t just another update – it’s shaping up to be one of Nissan’s most significant launches in recent memory. With e-Power technology now part of the package, the next Rogue is clearly aimed at heavyweights like the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid and Honda CR-V Hybrid. At the official reveal, Nissan gave us the usual exterior shots and broad product details, b

A Mustang Movie Icon The Ford Mustang isn’t only an icon in the automotive world – it’s also a star in Hollywood, having appeared in films like 2014’s John Wick and Need for Speed. But perhaps its most iconic role came in the 2000's Gone in 60 Seconds, where the 1967 Mustang Fastback “Eleanor” became a legend in its own right. So legendary, in fact, that Cinema Muscle Recreations built a limited run of 25 “Eleanor” continuation cars – and the first production example (Series No. 1) is now headin
