You can bet that Rivian’s engineers brainstormed a hundred different uses for the four 110-volt sockets they fitted to the R1T truck, including providing power for camping trips, DIY jobs, construction site work and enabling to it to be used as a mobile office.

Exactly 10 years ago Alfa Romeo announced it would co-develop a new Spider with Mazda that would be based on the Japanese firm’s still-secret 2015 MX-5 Miata.

Arctic Trucks builds some of the world’s most capable off-road vehicles, designed specifically for the bitterly cold and unpredictable conditions found in the Arctic Circle. Their vehicles have completed a plethora of adventures over the years, including a particularly famous one with Top Gear. Unfortunately, things don’t always go to plan on adventures like these.

Street takeovers are becoming an increasingly bad problem throughout the United States and as police try their hardest to clamp down on them, it turns out that Ford Mustang drivers are making them even more dangerous.
