Whether you’re a fan of the movies or not, the “Fast and Furious" franchise has become embedded in pop culture, and it's one of those instances where some of the props, in this case the cars, are as highly regarded as the human characters.

Not much about Sasha Selipanov follows any rule book for designers, if there were one.

When it comes to Rolls-Royce sedans, the seat of choice isn't behind the steering wheel but rather one in the back. Just let the chauffeur worry about the traffic. As a result, rear space and comfort is of upmost importance in the ultra-luxury rollers. It's why the Ghost, which is already one of the biggest sedans on the market, has a stretched...
Volkswgen's Arteon is a handsome brute, but with prices starting just shy of $37,000 it was always going to be a niche offering. The fastback sedan went on sale last May and currently averages just 300 units per month here in the United States. No surprise then that Car and Driver reported on Friday that additional variants of the Arteon are...

With turbocharged engines, the boost number--the pressure at which air is fed into the engine--is often equated with the amount of power on tap. But that isn't necessarily the case. "Boost itself is not a meaningless number, but it's probably not as meaningful as many people think," Jason Fenske of Engineering Explained said. Here's what he means...
Audi's redesigned RS 3 was spotted this week and is expected to follow a formula similar to its predecessor. This means a turbo-5 up front and power to all four wheels.
