There’s also a trained parking feature, which lets you record up to five parking routines. Once the car recognizes it’s in a parking environment that it knows, it will offer to take over the job of putting your car away for you, although only with the driver in the car—this does not appear to be ..

As a former (NA) MX-5 owner myself, I was rather excited at the prospect of the RF. It sounded like all the MX-5 stuff I loved, but with less risk of someone slashing the hood, and maybe a more refined interior. The weather mostly sucked while we had the RF, so the roof stayed up ..
Greenhouse gas reduction is no longer a priority for the US government, but if you’re looking for a new vehicle and want to buy something with the lowest life cycle carbon emissions, you’re best off looking for a compact with a small battery. That’s one of the findings from a group at the University of ..
Creating garage space would increase the number of homes capable of EV charging from 31 million to more than 50 million. And when we include houses where the owner thinks it’s feasible to add wiring, that grows to more than 72 million homes. And that’s far more than Telemetry’s most optimistic estimate of US EV ..
“The Acura RSX has a sporty coupe style that expresses the performance that comes from excellent aerodynamics,” said Yasutake Tsuchida, Acura creative director and vice president of American Honda R&D. “Starting from this all-new RSX, we will redefine the Acura brand around timeless beauty and a high-tech feel that is essential for a performance and ..
The added displacement—0.6 L larger than the engine you’ll find in the regular 911—is to compensate for not being able to alter the fuel ratio. And for the first time in several decades, there’s now only a single turbocharger. Normally, a larger-capacity engine and a single big turbo should be a recipe for plenty of ..
Wait, are you sure that’s a record? Booker, Clarke, and Parker drove an impressive distance on a single charge, but “longest EV drive on a single charge” is a slightly more nebulous thing. In this case, the Polestar 3 was entirely standard, on stock tires. But if you’re prepared to start tweaking stuff around, longer ..
An orange tint of smoke in the air always contributes to dramatic lighting for sunrise photos in Los Angeles. But this early in the fire season, the coloring serves as an inescapable reminder of greenhouse gas emissions and the mobility solutions that might reduce or at least slightly mitigate the future of radical weather crises. ..
REIDEN, Germany—There is a lot to be said for testing a car on the roads it was developed on. A Kei car, for example, makes more sense in downtown Tokyo than on one of Nashville’s arterial highways, surrounded by construction trucks. Likewise the German supersedans. For decades, an arms race has been conducted between rival ..
Tesla was found partially liable in a wrongful death lawsuit in a federal court in Miami today. It’s the first time that a jury has found against the car company in a wrongful death case involving its Autopilot driver assistance system—previous cases have been dismissed or settled. In 2019, George McGee was operating his Tesla ..
