800 miles in an F-Pace SVR and 8 miles in an I-Pace shows Jaguar’s split personality
We head to Monterey Car Week in Jaguar’s new 550hp F-Pace SVR and also spend some time with the luxury automaker’s all-electric crossover, the I-Pace, while we’re in town. One model showcases the best of what Jaguar’s current lineup has to offer, the other hints at the potential for a quieter, more efficient, and perhaps less interesting future.
2019 Roush Stage 3 Mustang Review
Slammed, uncorked, and supercharged, Roush’s top-spec package takes the Mustang GT to new heights. But with a blown factory-built supercharged Shelby on the way, is this Stage 3 package compelling enough to lure buyers away from the GT500? We’ll give our opinion as we dive deep into this question.
In Moab, Jeep isn’t just having fun off-road; it’s planning its future
Every year, Jeep travels to the Moab Easter Safari to unveil a handful of concept cars. Some are based on production models, while others are classic rigs upgraded with modern components. The company isn't only having fun on the trail; it's planning its future. Digital Trends sat down with Mark Allen to learn more.
2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI first drive
The Volkswagen Jetta GLI returns for the 2019 model year with a more aggressive design and hot hatch-like power under the hood. It undercuts the GTI by thousands of dollars, but is it as fun? We put it through its paces on the Tail of the Dragon, an 11-mile stretch of winding tarmac in North Carolina.
2019 Mercedes-Benz G550 review
Over the past forty years, the G-Class has earned a reputation as a go-anywhere machine. But as technology and the model’s customer base have both evolved, Mercedes-Benz has sought to bring some modernity to the G-Class. Can the new G550 find a balance between off-road capability and on-road civility?
2019 Lamborghini Urus first drive review
As the demand for premium SUVs continues to climb, Lamborghini brings an all-new contender to the fray with the Urus, a 650-horsepwer performance machine that emphasizes luxury and capability in equal measure. We tested it and found it's a veritable tour de force of technology, luxury, and all-out speed.
2019 Maserati Levante GTS review
Maserati’s luxury SUV gets a shot in the arm by way of Ferrari-derived V8 power, but is it enough to go toe-to-toe with the established players in the high performance sport-utility segment? We hit the streets of LA and then head out to the twisting tarmac of the Angeles Forest to find out.
E-tron GT concept is the latest volley in Audi’s electrified offensive
Concepts have traditionally been an exercise in “what if,” serving as a means of stoking the public’s imagination with engineering fantasies that are unburdened by the realities of volume production. But with the e-tron GT concept, Audi assures us that “this will be.” We'll see a production model in showrooms by 2020.
2019 Fiat 124 Spider Abarth first drive review
We head to Streets of Willow in Rosamond, California, to put Fiat's track-tuned roadster through its paces on the road course. The result of an engineering partnership between Fiat and Mazda, the 124 Spider Abarth is a timely reminder that horsepower isn't the final word in high performance.
2019 Fiat 500 Abarth first drive review
We put Fiat’s Abarth-tuned 500 through its paces at the Streets of Willow racetrack to see what it's all about. Based on the standard 500 city car, this diminutive performance machine uses a turbocharged, 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine rated at 160 hp that sends it from zero to 60 mph in less than seven seconds.
2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio Review
Alfa’s Romeo’s Ferrari-powered sport utility delivers hair-raising straight-line performance, admirable capability in the corners, and head-turning style, but comes up a bit short in a few key areas. We put the Stelvio Quadrifoglio through its paces on the twisties as well as the everyday commute.
