SEVENTY-THREE YEARS AGO, over Rogers Dry Lake in Southern California, the world flew faster than ever before with the first-ever sound barrier-breaking flight. Mission accomplished: Mach 1 was achieved. Seventy-three years later, the thirst for speed is quenched again. Mach 1 has returned as a truly global model and will join the Ford Mustang line-up […]
WHILE EVS HAVE BECOME ubiquitous on our roads (well, at least in car company model lists), off-road is, to many, still uncharted territory. Mercedes-Benz are about to change all that with their new EQC 4×4² (4×16?), although from what we can gather, it’s more of a concept vehicle than a genuine production possibility.

FOR MANY OF US, THE Holden Dealer/Racing Team has been part of our lives for as long as we can remember. But that all comes to an end, fittingly at Mt Panorama, on 18 October when the factory-backed Holden race team takes its final bow. Once General Motors pulled the plug on local production, the […]
THE PANDEMIC HAS CAUSED chaos in many ways, not least in vehicle availability. One of those affected is Škoda which has had supply problems with its Superb models. Those issues have now been resolved and the 2021 Superb returns with a new driveaway sticker price that is more than amortised by the addition of $3400 […]

In fact, they suggested it could well be a form of power that we aren’t even considering yet. However, indecision can […]
DESPITE DELISTING THE i20 micro car in Australia some time ago, Hyundai insists we’ll be getting the racetrack capable hot hatch i20 N, based on the all-new i20 and inspired by the i20 WRC rally car. As is becoming a regular ploy for the company, it has revealed a first teaser of its new model. […]
