All of you muscle car fans out there can take another swig of Bud Heavy because there’s a new extra beefy Hellcat from Dodge: the Dodge Challenger Hellcat Widebody. Don’t overthink the name. Dodge didn’t. This is like a Hellcat, but wider.
Japan’s late-Eighties Bubble Era produced some of the most extreme and extraordinary cars to ever see public roads. The triple-rotor Mazda Cosmo grand tourer and the gullwing Autozam AZ-1 city car spring to mind.

Uber’s ex-CEO Travis Kalanick recently quit while the company he built churns through the news like a flash flood through a waste treatment plant. How did Uber’s corporate culture get so bad? What kind of boss runs a shop like this? Someone who, apparently, can sit in a hot tub for eight to 10 hours.
