The company took the covers off eco-friendly two-wheelers at EICMA 2024 in Milan, Italy. These are the EV Fun Concept and EV Urban Concept, which will soon hit global markets. The first is a sportier variant blessed with a sleek silhouette. According to the manufacturer, it’s also incorporating existing technologies from its motorcycle division. These elements endow the electric bike with top-notch handling, reliable stopping power, and comfortable…

Compared to its fellow South Korean marquee, Hyundai, it has been relatively quiet about sustainable motoring. Nonetheless, the PV5 WKNDR and EV9 ADVNTR can potentially disrupt the scene. We mean that in a good way, as these two made their debut at the 2024 SEMA Show. Kia Design Center America (KDCA) is behind the futuristic overlanding machines. The annual expo brings together people who are seriously…

Oct. 28th, 2024 Mazda just broadened the audience of its flagship SUV with a brand new model name. I took the all-new 2025 Mazda CX-70 on a road trip from Charleston to Asheville, North Carolina. Unsurprisingly, it punches above its weight in luxury and performance. But somewhat surprisingly, the differences between it and its three-row counterpart, the CX-90, cause one to question the need for an entirely new name.  The good news is that once you accept the subtlety of the distinction between the CX-70 and its forebear, it is a fantastic two-row SUV with an interior that holds its…

Like motorsports, car companies must also be on top of their game to retain pole position. Unfortunately, even legends can fade into obscurity due to uncontrollable factors. Lotus deserves a hit, and Theory 1 might spark the hype it wants. The British marque was once a significant player in the sports car scene. The vehicles that used to roll out of their factory in Hethel, Norfolk, were considered some of the most highly…

Factors that typically affect efficiency include weight, temperature, and aerodynamics. Nonetheless, THOR Industries defies all expectations as it partners with Harbinger to develop a new platform with remarkable mileage. We all know companies always make bold claims for the sake of marketing. To stand out in a niche full of competitors, sometimes you need to add a bit of fluff to generate some buzz. So…

Photo by Fran MillerDuring a recent driving tour of California’s picturesque Coachella Valley, I had the pleasure of borrowing a Volvo C40 Recharge, an electric vehicle that combines stunning design with cutting-edge technology. From the moment I slipped into the driver’s seat, I was charmed by its quiet operation and smooth acceleration, both of which made driving feel effortless. The spacious interior and state-of-the-art features provided comfort and security. And the sporty exterior earned a prime, front-and-center parking position at each of the posh resorts at which I stayed during my route. (Valets know quality cars when they see and drive them,…

Images courtesy of RUF From JustLuxe Content Partner MensGear With a remarkable pedigree in motorsports, many view Porsche as a marque that manufactures sleek sports cars people can drive daily. Moreover, with a bit of tuning, even take on the tracks. Conversely, some automotive enthusiasts prefer to follow its stint in off-road races. Thus, RUF presents a new project dubbed the Rodeo. Over the years, the German firm has earned a reputation for its prolific usage of Porsche body-in-white for its builds. Mostly designing and engineering bespoke rides for paved roads, the team now dabbles with something exhilarating. Here is…
