If You Blow a Tire, Call a Tow Truck and Not Whatever This Is

3 days ago | thedrive.com | Adam Ismail

Treading lightly around vehicles hauling alarming loads is the kind of self-preservation instinct you need to have as a driver. In my experience, that’s typically a pickup ravaged by rust, carrying loose tools in the bed. A red flag, to be sure, but it’s frankly nothing compared to this Ford Expedition “towing” a Saab 9-3 convertible on the North Loop off US 290 near Houston. I put it quotes because I don’t think it should really count as towing when you use a single chain.
Volvo EX90's Lidar Sensor Will Fry Your Phone's Camera

3 days ago | thedrive.com | Adam Ismail

Cameras are weird, and some situations in everyday life expose this weirdness. Ever try to film or snap a picture of an old tube TV? You get bands of colors, rather than a complete image. Or, have you ever taken a video of a plane’s propeller in motion? Depending on how well your camera’s framerate matches the speed of the aircraft’s blades, they might appear perfectly still as the plane takes flight. How cool is that?
$148M Electric Truck Startup Is Going Down in Flames, Fast

4 days ago | thedrive.com | Beverly Braga

Things aren’t looking good for Bollinger Motors, the electric vehicle startup that turned $148 million into about 40 mostly-unsold commercial trucks and a whole lot of drama. In March, its founder and ex-CEO Robert Bollinger sued the company’s current owner Mullen Automotive over an unpaid $10M loan, and last week a judge in Michigan granted his request to put the company into receivership after Mullen skipped out on the hearing, according to Automotive News.
Tesla Fans Lose Their Minds Over Photo of New Prototype That's Not a Tesla

4 days ago | thedrive.com | Beverly Braga

Fanboys and stockholders alike are so hopeful that Tesla is in the final stages of an all-new vehicle that, like moths to a flame, if one points and shouts, “Omg, that’s the new Tesla prototype!” upon seeing a camouflaged EV, then it must be true. It’s a new Tesla! Except when the vehicle is actually from Faraday Future.
New Jeep Wrangler Truck Cab Kit Is Giving Me All Kinds of Bad Ideas

4 days ago | thedrive.com | Beverly Braga

The arrival of the Jeep Gladiator pickup in 2018 didn’t stop the faithful from clamoring for a two-door version, nor the aftermarket from building them out of Jeep Wranglers. Now, there’s a new “bolt-on” pickup kit for the current JL-generation Wrangler Unlimited from a longtime Jeep shop, and I think the best thing about it is that it doesn’t actually come with a bed, so it gets delivered with just the bare frame out back as seen in the photo above.
Max Verstappen Spotted at the Nurburgring Testing a Ferrari GT3 Car Under Fake Name

5 days ago | thedrive.com | Beverly Braga

Max Verstappen may be preparing to enter his sidequest racing era because the four-time Formula 1 champ was caught testing a Ferrari—the Dutchman even tried to be discreet by using a pseudonym. As if that was going to work. Like a true motorsports glutton, new dad/old racer Verstappen spent his two-week break from F1 at the Nürburgring behind the wheel of a Ferrari 296 GT3 car.
Ford’s CEO Is Racing In the Mustang Challenge at Laguna Seca This Weekend

5 days ago | thedrive.com | Beverly Braga

Jim Farley is not your average car company CEO. A genuine car guy and motorsports enthusiast, the Ford boss has been known to occasionally get behind the wheel of a race car—and he has the podium finishes to prove it. And he looks to repeat that success again this weekend at Laguna Seca. According to Ford Authority, Farley will be one of 20 drivers taking part in the Mustang Challenge, an IMSA-sanctioned single-make series.
Good Luck Charging the Mercedes-Benz CLA EV

6 days ago | thedrive.com | Beverly Braga

Wouldn’t it be ironic if future-proofing something also meant it’s unusable today? Such is the problem for anyone who gets the upcoming Mercedes-Benz CLA EV. Mercedes has confirmed that its new, entry-level electric vehicle is designed for 800-volt DC fast chargers, but as a result, it’s not compatible at all with common 400-volt chargers—you’re either charging ultra fast or ultra not at all. The new CLA EV is equipped with Tesla’s North American Charging System (NACS) port.
Ford Mustang GTDs Could Cost More Than $600,000 When All Is Said and Done

6 days ago | thedrive.com | Beverly Braga

The fastest American car to ever loop the Nürburgring might also be among the most expensive ones to do so. According to one would-be owner of the upcoming Ford Mustang GTD, what was originally billed as a $325,000 car may actually end up costing double that once everything is said and done. On a recent episode of The Smoking Tire podcast, the GTD breaking its own sub-seven-minute lap of the Green Hell became a topic of discussion.
Fake Audi Websites Are Scamming Used Car Buyers in Europe

6 days ago | thedrive.com | Nico DeMattia

If it’s too good to be true, it very likely is. Audi is warning customers about the rise of fraudulent websites scammers are using to lure unsuspecting used-car buyers with shockingly low prices. Surprise! The Audi-branded websites aren’t real, and neither are the cars listed for sale. Unfortunately, Audi claims some people across Germany, Switzerland, and Austria have fallen victim to the scheme already, and the automaker is cooperating with the police to find out more.
