Editor-in-Chief at Jalopnik. I owned two Mini Coopers, you don't scare me.
In an alternate universe, there are no 25-year import restrictions and you, a freedom-loving American, are able to wheel around in the 2019 Suzuki Jimny as you please, climbing rocks and blasting across the beach with rainbows in your heart and a smile in your soul. There’s only one problem: you probably shouldn’t…
Hyundai, it seems, is serious about taking on the Germans with the new 2019 Genesis G70 sport sedan. So much so that’s actually priced identically to the current BMW 3 Series. But there’s a catch that makes it an even better deal.
You may think that Toyota and BMW worked incredibly closely on the new Supra and Z4, collaborating daily if not hourly to jointly ensure their sports car project would be a success for all. Except if you did, you’d be wrong!
Some good news if you don’t really care for driving with Apple Maps, which seems to be just about everybody: with the latest iOS 12 update, you can now run third-party map apps from Apple CarPlay. Yes, including the objectively better Google Maps. This is good news.
Mercedes-Benz: the serious German luxury brand for serious important people, winning Formula One teams and high-end supercars. Now, also, bright-yellow hot hatchbacks that look like Pokémon and have big ridiculous wings. Meet the 2019 Mercedes-AMG A35, the baby hot hatch from Benz.
Apparently not to be outdone by their sports car partners at Toyota today, BMW dropped a bunch of news about the new Supra’s platform-mate the 2019 Z4. We have confirmed power specs for the turbocharged inline-six engine, and now for the upcoming four-cylinder variant too. Get excited.
I have long lamented that Datsun 240Z prices have skyrocketed so much in recent years. But I remain optimistic because it seems like most owners of those cars are committed to keeping them nice, or at least doing something truly interesting with them. One of those owners is Tyler Powell, who’s done a monster…
We found it pretty hard not to like the new 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class, a sleek sedan and hatchback combo that seemed to really up its game over the current family of Mercedes compacts. But everyone had one question: where’s the AMG version? Apparently, this is it.
Normal brain: a car with two seats. Expanding brain: three seats, like the McLaren F1. Galaxy brain: only one seat, for you and you alone. That’s the car you really want! And Ferrari is giving it to 100 lucky customers in the form of the Ferrari Monza SP1, and it packs a 789 horsepower V12.
The new 2019 Audi e-tron looks... fine. It’s serviceable. It makes me miss the golden age of Audi design from about 10 or 15 years ago. Wouldn’t you love to see an electric car from the people who designed the original TT?
The new 2019 Toyota Supra is currently the most-discussed car that we know almost nothing about (besides the mid-engine Corvette, of course.) We haven’t seen the new Supra without camouflage yet, and we don’t even know exactly how much power its twin-turbo, BMW-sourced engine will put out, to say nothing of exact…
If you plan—as we all do, really—to spend $150,000 on a huge, gadget-laden, ultra-powerful, luxurious German sedan, you may think your best choice is the Mercedes-AMG S63. And that is a good choice! But over at BMW there’s a far more subtle but equally compelling alternative you may not have considered. Here’s why you…
The very first thing I noticed when I stepped into the 2018 Chevrolet Bolt was the gear selector. Upright, situated between the two front seats, familiar P-R-N-D-L markings. That gear selector speaks volumes about what this electric car is trying to be.
Take some time today, if you haven’t in a while, to admire the Lotus Esprit. Why doesn’t it get more credit for being an enduring, compelling design? The world doesn’t make sense sometimes.
Traffic sucks, so why not start your morning off with some music? You provide the toast and we’ll provide the jams.
You kids like Volvos? You like t-shirts and free trips? Our friends at Blipshift are running a contest with Volvo, where if you submit an awesome t-shirt design and win, they’ll send you to Sweden. Go to Blipshift for details. It’s running through Sunday, Sept. 16.
Friends, as your hardworking Jalopnik EIC, I’ve driven some cars. At this point, everything from a Ford Model A to a Bugatti Veyron. Hell, I’ve even been behind the wheel of a Lancia Delta Integrale, and you could probably fit all the Americans who’ve done that into a school bus. But I’ve had one bizarre,…
