    Ola Electric Bike Side Profile Teased – Global Debut Tomorrow, August 15th

    Ola Electric Bike Side ProfileWhen launched, Ola electric bike is likely to gain dominance in electric motorcycle segment, rivalling offerings from Oben, Revolt and TorkAfter dominating the electric scooter market, Ola Electric is trying to replicate similar success in electric motorcycle space. The company has been teasing the production version of its upcoming electric motorcycle. The recent teaser shows Ola electric bike side profile and establishes its silhouette.Ola Electric Bike Side Profile TeasedOwing to its aggressive pricing strategy, Ola has managed to establish itself as a leader of electric scooter segment. The company’s S1 range of electric scooters have been pretty popular in India, leading the sales charts for a very long time. Now, the company intends to extend its success to electric motorcycle realm too.Ola Electric had showcased as many as four electric motorcycle concepts some time ago. One of them was a Roadster concept which is likely to have spawned a production version. Not long ago, Ola’s design patents filed in India were leaked, showing multiple street naked genre of motorcycles.The design patents looked like they were multiple variants of the motorcycle with varied equipment levels and stylistic elements. There is a good probability of Ola launching multiple versions of its motorcycle. A similar approach was observed with Ola’s S1 range of electric scooters too.Ola Cyber Racer Top VariantFrom the side, Ola electric bike takes the shape of a muscular street naked motorcycle. Ola has teased the bike’s battery and some of its electrical components before. We can see a large battery positioned where an engine would be placed in a conventional motorcycle. We can see a few circuitry and other control boards in the previous teaser too.There is a mid-mounted motor that is driving the rear wheels via a chain drive. From the recent teaser, we can see a glimpse of its componentry. It gets RSU telescopic front suspension at the front and a mono-shock setup at the rear. There is disc brake at both ends and there seems to be 17-inch alloy wheels at both ends.What to expect?Considering that it is from Ola Electric, we might get a plethora of features and gimmicks to make a strong mark for itself in the budding electric motorcycle space. A 7-inch touchscreen instrument screen with Ola Maps, music control and more. There might be an on-board speaker to play music as well.Ola Electric Bike Battery TeasedRange from a single charge might be around 180 km, around a similar ballpark as S1 Pro Gen II. From the past teasers, Ola electric bike looks like it is a commuter style product with performance of a 150cc motorcycle. It gets dual LED projector headlights, as seen in previous teaser and other elements. Price could be around Rs 1.5 lakh (effective Ex-sh). More info will be revealed tomorrow. More

    Ford Issues a New Stop-Drive for Takata Airbag Vehicles

    Ford has issued a stop-drive warning for vehicles involved in three past safety recalls related to Takata airbags. The recall includes certain 2004–11 Ford Ranger pickups; 2005–14 Mustangs; 2005–06 GTs; 2006–12 Fusion, Mercury Milan, and Lincoln MKZ/ Zephyr cars; and 2007–10 Edge and Lincoln MKX SUVs.According to Ford, roughly 375,000 vehicles were impacted by the recalls in the United States, with 95 percent having completed the fix. Ford released a new stop-drive order to nearly 19,000 Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury owners due to three past safety recalls. All three recalls (15S21, 17S42, and 19S01) are related to the use of Takata airbags. The first recall was issued in 2015, with this being Ford’s second “do not drive” advisory pertaining to the matter.According to Ford, approximately 765,000 airbags in Ford vehicles were part of the global recall, of which 374,300 were in the United States. Following more than 121 million outreach attempts in the U.S. through letters, emails, phone calls, text messages, and more than one million canvassing visits to customers’ homes, Ford says 95 percent of impacted owners in the U.S. have completed the recall. That leaves 18,715 unfixed vehicles on the road. Affected vehicles include 2004–11 Ford Ranger pickups; 2005–14 Mustangs; 2005–06 GTs; 2006–12 Fusion, Mercury Milan, and Lincoln MKZ/ Zephyrs; and 2007–10 Edge and Lincoln MKX SUVs.To make the recall as easy on customers as possible, Ford said it has free loaner cars available if they are necessary. Customers also have the option of requesting a mobile service, or dealers will tow vehicles directly to the dealership to complete the free repair. Owners can check Ford’s recall website or use the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration tool to see if their vehicle is involved.

    2025 Lincoln Navigator Teased ahead of August 15 Debut

    Lincoln has teased the 2025 Navigator in a new video before its debut on August 15.The video shows an illuminated badge and light-up bars in the grille.The cabin now features a squared-off wheel and a restyled dashboard.Cadillac recently revealed a refreshed Escalade SUV for 2025, and now Lincoln is ready to respond with its own updated Navigator. The American luxury brand released a teaser video today showing off several details on the 2025 Navigator and announcing that the revised SUV will be revealed on August 15.The 2025 Navigator isn’t expected to be a complete overhaul but appears to be a fairly thorough refresh of Lincoln’s biggest SUV. The video doesn’t provide a clear look just yet, but plenty of details are shown that allow us to piece together an idea of what to expect, and the Navigator looks to build on the design cues first seen on the smaller 2024 Nautilus.While the current Navigator is already offered with an illuminated badge in the grille, the 2025 model looks to take it a step further with new light-up bars extending outward from the logo across the grille. Inside, the 2025 Navigator will receive a squared-off steering wheel like the Nautilus has, while the piano-key shifter buttons have moved lower onto the center console. While it wasn’t shown in the video, we wouldn’t be surprised to see the 2025 model gain a full-width screen spanning the dashboard in a similar vein to the Nautilus’s 48.0-inch unit. The 2025 Escalade adopts a 55-inch display that stretches from pillar to pillar.It’s unclear if Lincoln is planning any changes to the Navigator’s powertrain, but the twin-turbocharged V-6 could receive a power increase. Still, the Navigator’s 440 horsepower already outdoes the 420 ponies produced by the Caddy’s 6.2-liter V-8, and we don’t expect Lincoln to take the fight to the 682-hp supercharged Escalade V. Either way, all details on the Navigator will be revealed in just two days’ time.More New LincolnsCaleb Miller began blogging about cars at 13 years old, and he realized his dream of writing for a car magazine after graduating from Carnegie Mellon University and joining the Car and Driver team.

    2025 Toyota Tundra Adds TRD Rally Package with Colorful Badging

    The 2025 Toyota Tundra introduces a new TRD Rally package with colorful badges and off-road-oriented upgrades.For 2025, the Tundra also adds new features to help with towing as well as massaging front seats on the fanciest trims.Toyota hasn’t yet released pricing for the 2025 Tundra or the new TRD Rally package.The Toyota Tundra is dropping the TRD Sport package for the 2025 model year, but a new Baja-inspired kit is taking its place. The introduction of the TRD Rally package brings some notable off-road upgrades as well as Toyota’s tri-colored badging inside and out.New TRD PackageThe Tundra’s new TRD Rally package is only available on the SR5 trim level, which also must be configured with the crew cab and four-wheel drive. It adds distinctive yellow-orange-red badges on the grille, the front doors, and the tailgate. The color scheme is also seen on the truck’s center caps, which are affixed to 18-inch TRD wheels wrapped with all-terrain tires. Inside, the colorful logos are found on the dashboard and the seats.ToyotaAlso included with the TRD Rally package is hardware that’s designed to help Toyota’s full-size truck survive rough terrain. The list includes Bilstein dampers, an electronically locking rear differential, and skid plates for underbody protection. The four paint options for the rally-spec Tundra are Ice Cap, Magnetic Gray, Midnight Black Metallic, and Celestial Silver. The SR5 comes with the Tundra’s nonhybrid powertrain, which consists of a 389-hp twin-turbo V-6 and a 10-speed automatic transmission.ToyotaFor 2025, the SR5 now comes standard with an eight-way power-adjustable driver’s seat; it has lumbar adjustment too. Customers can now order a wireless trailer camera system from the factory. All they have to do is attach the Wi-Fi camera to the back of their trailer and to see a rear view on the truck’s center screen. The Tundra’s side mirrors have also been revised with a taller profile and a different shape that Toyota says provides a better view. The 1794 Edition, the Platinum, and the Capstone are the Tundra’s fanciest trims, and they now have standard massaging front seats. Toyota hasn’t yet released pricing for the 2025 Tundra lineup, but we expect that information to be announced ahead of its on-sale date later this year.More Tundra ReadingEric Stafford’s automobile addiction began before he could walk, and it has fueled his passion to write news, reviews, and more for Car and Driver since 2016.

    2025 Kia K4 Starts at $23,145, $2000 More Than Outgoing Forte Sedan

    The 2025 Kia K4 will start at $23,145, a $2000 increase over the 2024 Kia Forte.The GT-Line Turbo is the only model with the 190-hp engine and will cost $29,245.The GT-Line gets most of the same goodies and sporty looks as the Turbo for $26,345.Kia’s compact sedan adopts a new name for 2025, with the outgoing Forte that ran for three generations replaced by the K4. The new K4 is larger than its predecessor and wears an assertive design with angular LED headlights, a wide lower grille, and a well-appointed cabin. Now Kia has announced pricing for the 2025 K4, and while its starting price is $2000 higher than the 2024 Forte, the K4 remains an affordable choice in an increasingly expensive new-car market.The price hike over the Forte means the base LX trim starts at $23,145, and it arrives with standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a 12.3-inch touchscreen, and four USB-C ports. Stepping up to the LXS adds $1000 and sees the 16-inch steel wheels with dark gray covers replaced by dark gray alloy wheels in the same size. The LXS also includes standard rear cross-traffic collision avoidance.KiaThe K4 is now offered with an EX trim for $25,145, gaining 17-inch black alloy wheels and a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster in place of the 4.0-inch screen in the LX and LXS. There’s also nicer interior trim, a dual-zone automatic climate control system, and a wireless charger.The GT-Line adds sporty looks for $26,345 and replaces the torsion-beam rear axle with a multi-link suspension setup. The sport-tuned suspension is complemented by steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters. There are also standard 18-inch wheels, a 10-way power adjustable driver’s seat with power lumbar support, and standard heated front seats, adaptive cruise control, and Kia’s Highway Driving Assist system. The LX, LXS, EX, and GT-Line all come exclusively with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine sending 147 horsepower to the front wheels through a continuously variable transmission.KiaBuyers interested in the more potent 190-hp turbocharged 1.6-liter inline-four will have to shell out at least $29,245 for the GT-Line Turbo. The GT-Line Turbo gets all of the same goodies as the 2.0-liter GT-Line—such as the suspension and the heated, powered driver’s seat—but also is the only K4 to wear full LED lights all around and feature standard faux leather seats. The Turbo also gains air vents for the rear passengers and a standard eight-speaker Harman Kardon sound system.The Kia K4 is due to reach dealerships starting in September, with the GT-Line showing up in November of this year. The GT-Line Turbo won’t be available until early 2025.Caleb Miller began blogging about cars at 13 years old, and he realized his dream of writing for a car magazine after graduating from Carnegie Mellon University and joining the Car and Driver team.
