Back in February, we reported that Ferrari’s first all-electric car (a high-performance EV crossover) would probably be revealed on October 9, 2025 at the Italian firm’s Capital Markets Day. We are now slightly disappointed to admit that we were wrong.
Or were we? We’re not actually sure whether the unveiling has been delayed or if this was always the plan, but boss Benedetto Vigna has now said that Ferrari will only show the “technological heart” of its EV later this year.

“I believe it is probably the right time for me personally and professionally, and that is why I am considering it,” Sainz Sr told Motorsport.com.

1) Travis Pastrana: 82-meter rally car jump
With Evel Knievel as an idol, it’s no surprise we could fill this entire list with just Travis Pastrana stunts. Perhaps his best on four wheels was on New Year’s Eve in 2009, when Pastrana flung his Subaru Impreza STI rally car off the pier in Long Beach while doing 146kph. After flying for 82 meters, he landed on a floating barge and set a new world record.

Back at the end of 2024, Ford announced its upcoming Mustang GTD had lapped the Nürburgring in under seven minutes. In fact, the 804hp supercharged former muscle car (it’s now a supercar, according to Ford) had set a time of 6min and 57.6sec, but Ford reckoned it could still do better.
And now… it has done better. Multimatic Motorsports driver Dirk Müller took the definitely-not-a-diesel-Golf round the ‘Ring in 6min and 52.072sec, shaving 5.5sec off his previous best.

Is anyone else getting a little tired of the constant custom, one-off liveries in Formula 1? Heck, at this point the teams may as well design a new look for every single race. At least that would keep the art departments busy.
Anyway, before we get too ‘old man yells at cloud’ about it, here are three ‘unique’ designs for this weekend’s Miami Grand Prix.

This is a lightly used and lightly modified 2016 Ford Mustang GT that’s up for sale in the US through Curated Vintage Supercars. It’s got the 5.0-liter V8 engine and the six-speed manual gearbox, and the asking price is… $499,000 (P27.69 million before taxes).
Wait, what?
Of course, this isn’t just any old Mustang. Heck, with a bit of imagination, you could convince yourself that this isn’t even a car as we know it.

You cannot be serious. John McEnroe may have been disputing a line call back in 1981, but we’d like to imagine he’s uttering that famous phrase once again upon learning that Pagani has just unveiled ANOTHER new Zonda.
Yep, just over eight months after the definitely-the-last-one-ever Zonda Arrivederci broke cover, Pagani has now taken to Facebook to show off yet another version of the V12-engined hypercar that first appeared at the 1999 Geneva Motor Show.

This is the new Roush Nitemare, the latest generation of Roush’s flagship Ford F-150 street truck. So yes, you could refer to it as a recurring nitemare. Apologies.
Anyway, this thing certainly looks the part. We’re assuming the misspelled name is a reference to the factory F-150 Nite edition back in the early ’90s, rather than the Yu-Gi-Oh! Card or Bob Dylan song. That means it needs a menacing black paint job. Check.

Sound the alarms and light the beacons... again: It’s another special-edition Porsche 911. Heck, is there even enough fuel left to light the beacons after all the previous limited-run Porsches? Well, this one’s a hybrid so at least we’ll save a bit there.

It’s important to compromise in life. Sometimes, you just need to make small concessions in order to get things done...unless you work in Honda’s Chinese design department, it seems.
Because instead of just agreeing on one single look for its newest electric vehicle, Honda has decided to make two slightly different versions of the sedan/hatchback thing using the names of two of its joint ventures.
