Just cast your eyes upon that jaw-dropping number: 211,989 km. That's not your average stroll around the block; it's the remarkable mileage logged by an Ioniq 5 in just 18 months. Imagine the adventures, the open roads, and the sheer automotive thrill that unfolds over such a journey! For the petrolheads among us, the buzz of an electric car is still a novelty. Sure, there are electric vehicles (EVs) that shine, and others, well, not so much. As with any innovation, there are pros and cons to grapple with. What really captivates our attention, though, is the resilience of these electric marvels. They endure, clocking in (very) substantial kilometers. It's a no-brainer – without the combustion engine complexity, there are fewer parts to break. Enter the Hyundai Ioniq 5, a shining example that has emerged from the annals of the Ioniq 5 Facebook group. Picture this: an owner who took possession of their electric steed 18 months ago and has been relentlessly navigating the asph

 Well, well, well, folks, gather around for a tale of sheer automotive incompetence. Brace yourselves for the hilarity and tragedy that unfolded in Bethesda, just a stone's throw from the heart of American power in Washington DC. We've got a classic case of thieves trying to snatch a Porsche; let me tell you, it's a comedy of errors like no other. Picture this: a Tuesday evening, an unsuspecting owner strolls to his prized possession, a Porsche 718 Boxster. Little did he know, trouble was lurking in the form of a red Nissan Rogue, suspiciously loitering nearby. Out steps a chap, armed to the teeth, demanding the keys to the Porsche. It's your typical car theft scene, right? Well, not quite. You see, our would-be car thief should have noticed the memo on manual transmissions. Now, in the good ol' U.S. of A, we've got this unspoken rule – automatics for the masses, manuals for the purists, the enthusiasts, the petrolheads. And where do car thieves fit into this eq

So, Eicma 2023 – a cacophony of novelties, surprises, and dreams on two wheels. We've seen the most anticipated, the most beautiful, and the ones you might've missed. But what about the bikes we were waiting for, only to find an empty space in the showroom? Here's the lowdown on the great absentees stealing the spotlight. **Ducati Desmo MX: The Pachyderm in the Room** Ducati, the grand conductor of Eicma's anticipation orchestra, had us all on the edge, expecting the imminent debut of the 450 Cross – fresh off the hands of Tony Cairoli and Alessandro Lupino. We wanted a sneak peek, maybe not the Desmo engine details, but at least a glimpse of the bike's form. Alas, a postponed debut, possibly because the bike is still evolving. The waiting game continues. **Triumph MX2: All Dressed Up with Nowhere to Go** Triumph, just like Ducati, had a showstopper in its motocross lineup. Eicma could have been the grand stage, but Triumph and KTM played the absentee card, represen

  Alright, buckle up and brace yourselves for the clash of the Titans, the battle royale between Asia and Europe in the motorcycle world. It's like watching Godzilla go head-to-head with King Kong, only this time it's about bikes, not beasts. So, there we were at EICMA 2023, the ground zero for all things two-wheeled. The theme of the day? Globalization and how the motorcycle market is shaping up post-pandemic. But let's cut to the chase – it's all about the showdown between the mighty Asia and the rest of the globe. Now, if you thought this was a fair fight, think again. It's like a game of poker where Asia is holding all the aces, and the rest are struggling to keep up. Why? Well, blame it on tariffs and those pesky pollution regulations. The EICMA conference saw top-tier European managers discussing how to deal with this David-and-Goliath situation. The numbers speak for themselves. The Asian invasion at EICMA 2023 was unlike anything we've seen before. It wa

Jeeps used to be cool. They were big, brash, and brawny, with names like Wagoneer, Cherokee, and Wrangler. They were the sort of cars you’d drive across the desert with a shotgun on the passenger seat and a cigar in your mouth. But then something went wrong. Jeeps became boring. They started making cars like the Compass and the Patriot, which looked like they’d been designed by a committee of accountants. And the Renegade, which was supposed to be funky and fun, but was really just a Fiat 500X with a Jeep badge. So when I heard that Jeep had made a new car called the Avenger, I wasn’t very excited. And when I heard that it was an electric car, I was even less excited. And when I heard that it was based on a Fiat, built in Poland, and not even sold in America, I was ready to write it off as a complete waste of time. But then something strange happened. The Avenger won the European Car of the Year award for 2023. That’s right, a Jeep beat all the fancy German and French cars to win the m

Hold on to your seats, folks, because Subaru's just dropped a bombshell at the Japan Mobility Show, and it's got all the sci-fi feels. Introducing the Sport Mobility Concept, a jaw-dropping coupe that's channeling some serious cyberpunk vibes, reminiscent of the legendary SVX from back in the day. This ain't your run-of-the-mill ride, no sir. It's a swoopy, futuristic wonder that's here to shake things up. Now, picture this: it's like an intergalactic spaceship and a mean street machine had a baby. You've got those slender headlights, that chunky body, and that wide stance that's ready to take on any terrain. It's a bit of a rebel, not fitting into any conventional category. Is it a coupe? Is it a crossover? Heck, does it even have wheels, or does it transform and take off into the skies? You'd be forgiven for wondering, given the Air Mobility Concept that accompanied it, flaunting six rotor blades like something straight out of a sci-fi flic
