From the December 1995 issue of Car and Driver. It’s not the purple stripes that trigger the double takes. Not the purple competition seatbelts, either. It’s mostly the steering wheel on the right-hand side that elicits the gasps. Lord knows, this Subaru Impreza wagon’s squat, boxy shape otherwise attracts about as much attention as a […] More

At $106,290, it has a mere $7540 in options, which, if you don’t believe is a picture of restraint, go spend a few minutes on Porsche’s online configurator. This car had just four add-ons: […] More
View Photos Jessica Lynn WalkerCar and Driver The 2020 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid Coupe makes it hard to hate on SUVs. Someone at Porsche went down the list of reasons the high-riding machines get a bad rap and crossed them out one by one. Weak-sauce performance? Nope, this one’s as spicy as a 670-hp […] More

Well, she would if you consider Audi’s mid-size A5 hatch lineup as the beds, chairs, and porridge that little Goldie tries out during her ill-conceived breaking and entering.

Is it yeehaw, yee-ha, or yahoo? Never mind, it doesn’t matter. Whichever rebel yell you prefer, it’s appropriate from the driver’s seat of the 2020 Ram 2500 Power Wagon, which continues as Ram’s high-riding four-wheel-drive monolith that’s been upgraded with both attitude and hard-core off-road hardware. HIGHS: Serious off-road hardware with a warranty, climbs hills […] More
It’s a dilemma. The truly desirable McLaren is the M8B that Bruce McLaren himself used in 1969 to slaughter that year’s Can-Am season. Or it’s the MP4/4 in which Ayrton Senna earned his first Formula 1 Championship, in 1988. Maybe you’d argue for the F1, the street-legal V-12-powered beast of the 1990s that anyone with […] More
The camouflage stickers on our prototype are drawing plenty of attention, but the camouflage is doing its job. The most interesting feature remains well hidden. Under the wrap is the next-generation BMW 4-series’ retro-futuristic, vertical kidney grille. Said to be inspired by pre-war BMW models like the two-seat 328, the new grille and the two […] More
View Photos Joey CapparellaCar and Driver The Chevrolet Bolt EV was on top of the world when it debuted in 2016. At a time when most affordable EVs struggled to go even 100 miles on a charge, the Bolt was a revolution that promised an EPA-rated 238 miles of range for less than $40,000. But […] More
