Nürburgring officials may lift speed limit ban for auto manufacturers

In case you might’ve missed the news, organizers of the famed Nürburgring track had announced they would be imposing speed limits on the 12.9-mile course, including for car manufacturers. That’s a big deal since ‘Ring times have become a significant and ubiquitous performance measurement in recent years, painting a clearer picture of what a can do beyond simply zero-to-60 acceleration.

Sources close to Road & Track say though, that automakers might get the reprieve they were hoping for.

The track is well known for including a multitude of tight bends and fast straight sections, testing a car’s power as well as its agility. Auto manufacturers use the course not only to test prototypes, but to set new benchmarks of performance.

This new level of track regulation came after the unfortunate incident back in March, when a Nissan GT-3 race car went off a section of the track during an endurance event, injuring several spectators and killing one. Track management was quick to apply speed limits to certain sections of the track which not only applied to the days in which the track is open to the public, but also when manufacturers book the entire track for timing purposes.

Filmmaker J.F. Musial brought this news to the forefront as he was scheduled to document the Koenigsegg One:1 hypercar’s attempt for his documentary, APEX: The Story of the Hypercar. Koenigsegg’s goal was to top the time set by rival hypercar, the Porsche 918 hybrid, a goal speed limits would make impossible.

The inside source claims that track owners and managers Capricorn Nürburgring GmbH might refine the regulations they have made, allowing the limited sections to go unrestricted for auto manufacturer activities. Still, nothing is yet official and they may still disallow lap record attempts. If they don’t, then we fans will need a new way to settle our “best car” arguments.

The Ioniq 9, the much anticipated three-row, electric SUV from Hyundai, will be officially unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show next week.

Selected by Newsweek as one of America’s most anticipated new vehicles of 2025, the Ioniq 9 recently had its name changed from the Ioniq 7, which would have numerically followed the popular Ioniq 6, to signal the SUV as Hyundai’s new flagship EV model.

Kia EV5: everything we know so far
Kia EV9 front exterior

Kia is expanding its EV lineup in a big way. The company is currently in the middle of rolling out the EV3, which is now available in Europe and is likely to come to the U.S. next year. Not only that, but it's also prepping the EV4, which it will likely announce more widely in 2025. And it's not stopping there either -- the Kia EV5 is a slightly scaled-back version of the much-loved EV9 SUV, and not only is it a vehicle we're excited about, but it's one that has already launched in Australia.

If the EV5 is anything like the EV9 -- only cheaper -- it'll be an instant success. Curious about whether the EV5 could be your next car? Here's everything we know about the EV5.
Design
Despite the lower number, the Kia EV5 is actually larger than the EV6 crossover — but not quite as large as the EV9 SUV. Kia calls it a “compact SUV” that offersa boxy design that’s similar to the EV9, but with only two rows of seats instead of three.
