The modern automobile is safer, cleaner, more efficient, and more technologically advanced than anything that came before it. Yet those improvements have come at a cost. For many owners, mechanics, and independent repair shops, that cost is repairability.
A Collier County Sheriff’s deputy in Florida pulled over a speeding car expecting a traffic stop. Minutes later, he was holding a newborn baby girl wrapped in a blanket on the side of the road.
That's an interesting take. I know you said you're not looking to be interviewed, but could you tell me how recently you bought the BEV? Also, at a fraction of the retail price after 2 to 3 years; couldn't have been a Tesla. Was it a Tesla?
There’s a less glamorous side of the EV equation that doesn’t get as much attention: the EV electric motor. While the world obsesses over batteries, electric motors for electric vehicles are facing their own bottlenecks — efficiency limits, supply chain vulnerabilities, and thermal management challenges.
In what follows, I argue that the root cause lies not merely in weakening demand or fickle policy—but in the decision to make the ZDX an all-electric vehicle from the outset. In other words: if the ZDX had retained an internal combustion (or hybrid) option, it might still be in Acura’s lineup today.
Tom Matano, the automotive designer who helped create one of the most beloved roadsters in history, the original Mazda MX-5 Miata, has died at the age of 76. His passing marks the end of a career that reshaped how many thinks about what a sports car can and should be: lightweight, driver-focused, emotionally resonant, and joyously simple.
Mazda has officially patented a radical six-stroke internal combustion engine that transforms gasoline into hydrogen mid-cycle—offering an intriguing path toward near-zero carbon emissions.
The move to overturn California’s regulation, which was set to phase out internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles in favor of zero-emission alternatives, reveals deep ideological divides, industry lobbying power, and the precarious balancing act between environmental urgency and economic pragmatism.
The LS swap has become the default answer to every performance question, shoved into everything from Miatas to Land Rovers with the same lack of imagination as slapping a “Live, Laugh, Love” decal on a suburban kitchen wall.
It's shocking to see AI platforms spreading debunked conspiracy theories. This incident with Grok highlights just how crucial proper oversight and transparency are in AI development. Responsible tech should never amplify harmful misinformation.
The ultimate irony is that GM might be moving away from its combustion engines to survive the regulatory environment, and not because it has inferior technology and can’t compete with rivals.
