The Ariel Nomad is the Atom track car’s mud-loving alter ego, and having driven both, I can tell you it’s every bit as fun. Unfortunately, it’s even more expensive. An Atom 4 starts at $79,750 in the U.S. and the Nomad Tactical will set you back $92,250. Both are beautifully engineered, but that’s pretty serious
All too often we see drivers trying to race through train crossings, putting not only themselves but also those around them at risk.

The Chevrolet Camaro may no longer be selling in the numbers it once was, but it is still a very well-rounded performance car.

The Worthog is one of the most iconic vehicles featured in the Halo video game franchise and last year, Hoonigan teamed up with Microsoft to make a life-size, fully-functional version of the off-roader.

Not everyone is a fan of the Porsche Cayenne.

In 1939, the world was full of ambition and excitement about Antarctic exploration.

Kind of counterintuitively, it’s theoretically easier to drive an electric vehicle underwater than it is to drive an internal combustion vehicle through the depths below. YouTube’s Chillin’ with Chet decided to put theory into practice by attempting to drive his Tesla Model S under 7 ft of water. As is so often the case, the
Perhaps he was one of the few people in the world who actually liked 1983’s terrible Bond outing, Octopussy, or maybe he just had fond memories of watching the old Top Gear crew turn a Jaguar XJ-S and Audi A4 into trains. Maybe we’ll never know what inspired him, but in May this year a

A dually pickup truck is perfect for anyone looking to tow or carry heavy loads but it would appear that the owner of this Dodge Challenger likes the look of dually pickups so much they decided to give their muscle car a similar amount of ‘flair.’ This white Challenger’s rear-end has been modified with a
Ford has been struggling to get the Bronco out to the customers who have already ordered them and its latest attempt to mollify miffed buyers is a slush fund that dealers can use to shower buyers with gifts. Cars Direct reports that a letter sent out to dealers by Ford lays out the Bronco Customer
