Ford will return to Le Mans, but can it repeat last year’s performance?

One year after its fairy-tale class win at the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans, Ford will aim for a repeat victory. The Dearborn, Michigan, automaker is planning a second all-out assault on the legendary endurance race.

Ford was invited back for 2017 by the Automobile Club de l’Ouest (ACO), the organization that runs Le Mans. Just like last year, Ford will field four GT race cars run by U.S.-based Chip Ganassi Racing. They’ll be among 13 cars in the GTE Pro class, which is the top class for cars based on production models. A total of 60 cars are expected to race at Le Mans this year.

Ford entered Le Mans last year with the hope of nabbing a GTE Pro class victory on the 50th anniversary of the original GT40’s 1-2-3 overall Le Mans win. The GT40 is the car that inspired the current GT, and that 1966 win is one of the most legendary in motor sports history. Ford’s chances last year were considered somewhat slim, because at the time the GT was a new and relatively untested car.

If Ford wins again this year, history will once again be repeating itself. This year marks the 50th anniversary of Ford’s second Le Mans overall win, with a GT40 driven by Dan Gurney and A.J. Foyt. Ford GT40s also won the race in 1968 and 1969, although it’s unclear if Ford plans to keep the current GT racing program going for a full four years.

The 2017 lineup includes the team of drivers that won at Le Mans last year. Joey Hand, Dirk Muller, and Sebastian Bourdais will once again share the number 68 car. The lineups for cars 66 and 69 are unchanged as well, while 23-year-old Luis Felipe “Pipo” Derani will join returning drivers Harry Tincknell and Andy Priaulx in the number 67 car.

While Ford was something of an underdog in 2016, it’s the team to beat this year. Ford’s season has already gotten off to a strong start, with a class victory at the recent Rolex 24 at Daytona. We’ll see if the Blue Oval team can keep up that momentum between now and June, when the green flag drops on the 2017 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Kia EV4: everything we know so far

Kia EV4 Front

Kia is continuing to expand its electric car lineup. The EV6 and EV9 have both been out for some time now, and the company is in the middle of rolling out the EV3 in Europe, with a North American release expected next year. After that, it's likely the company will turn to the EV5. But what about after that? Well, that could be where the Kia EV4 comes in.

Kia announced a concept version of the EV4 at its EV Day in 2023, showing off a futuristic-looking hatchback that's seemingly a little smaller than the EV6, but keeps many design elements. Since then, Kia has confirmed very few details about it, though we have seen it shown off at other automotive events. Here's everything we know about the Kia EV4 so far.
Kia EV4 design
The Kia EV4, or at least the concept version of it, is smaller than the EV6, and much smaller than the EV9. It's actually closer in size to a sedan than anything else, though with its open trunk, it could be considered a hatchback. Regardless, it certainly blurs the line between the two. So much so, that in recent months we've actually seen a full hatchback version of the EV4 being tested -- and it's possible that Kia is pivoting the design of the EV4 entirely to be a hatch, or will be releasing both hatchback and sedan versions.
