The new Tesla Roadster can launch with cold-gas thrusters. Refilling them is another matter. Tesla engineering chief Lars Moravy told Top Gear that the nitrogen tank behind the seats of the Thrust version currently takes two to six hours to fill. The system it feeds runs for about five seconds. Moravy made the comment in a video interview published on October 16, 2026, the day after the car’s public reveal. He put current fill times…
Bloomberg report says SpaceX and friends are propping up Tesla’s pickup numbers Well, this is an interesting way to move metal off the lot. According to a new Bloomberg report, roughly 20 percent of all Tesla Cybertrucks on the road aren’t sitting in some enthusiast’s driveway — they’re registered to other companies Elon Musk happens to own. Turns out when your truck sales start looking a little thin, it helps to have a few billion-dollar…
Ford’s prototype Pony Car just embarrassed the Corvette ZR1X by eight seconds Remember when a sub-seven-minute Nürburgring lap was supercar territory reserved for Porsches with rear-mounted flat-sixes and German engineers in white lab coats? Well, pour yourself a cold one and sit down, because the boys in Dearborn just ran a 6:40.835 around the Green Hell in a Mustang. Yeah, you read that right. A Mustang.

But in 2010, Ford decided to try something bold. Instead of just another tough truck, it built a machine that looked like it belonged in the Baja 1000 — and it called it the Raptor. The Raptor wasn’t just another trim level. It was a revolution: a pickup designed…
For decades, “muscle car” meant something very specific: a big American coupe with a V8 under the hood, rear-wheel drive, and enough torque to roast the tires at a stoplight. The sound of a carbureted big block or a fuel-injected HEMI wasn’t just background noise — it was part of the identity. From the Pontiac GTO and Chevy Chevelle SS to the Dodge Charger and Plymouth ’Cuda, muscle cars were loud, raw, and unapologetic. If…
Some cars are born to be collectible. You don’t always know it when they first hit the showroom floor, but years later, you’ll see one at a car show and think, “Wow, I haven’t seen one of those in ages.” We often think of classics as something from the ’60s or ’70s, but today’s American automakers are still building cars that have the potential to become tomorrow’s show-stoppers.
