Stellantis’ Street and Racing Technology (SRT) division has developed a working prototype system designed to eliminate turbo lag on its forced-induction engines.

Ford Motor Co. isn’t giving up on EVs just yet. Last year, it revealed plans for its Universal Electric Vehicle platform designed to make EVs cheaper to produce — and cheaper to buy — while giving Ford plenty of flexibility on the type of electric vehicle it could build.
And the first vehicle it plans to build is a midsize pickup. Today, that truck got a name: Fathom. Will it have an option for a 6-foot bed? Who knows? But Ford’s first mainstream electric vehicle was als

Roger Hick scoured France to find his dream A110 – and then he found it in Milton Keynes"Alpine comes first in the name, as in Alpine Renault. There's never been a Renault Alpine."
So says Roger Hick, with sufficient authority for me to doubt my memory of cars such as the Renault Alpine GTA Turbo and Renault 5 Alpine Turbo. In any case, you don't question a man, in the presence of his Alpine A110 1300 S, who has owned two Alpine Renault V6 Turbos and whose daily driver is a current-model A

Ford’s been teasing the arrival of its first-ever midsize electric pickup truck for months now, revealing today that the name of the latest member of the “Ford Tough” family is Fathom.Yes, the jokes write themselves, such as “I cannot Fathom why they’d build another electric truck after what happened with the F-150 Lightning.” However, what it reinforces is that the automaker realizes that EVs aren’t going away and the first automaker to produce a viabl

Landmark pick-up truck moves a step closer to US launch – and will offer more space than a Toyota RAV4Ford's moonshot electric pick-up will be called the Fathom and be priced from $28,350 (£21,000) when launched in the US early next year, the company has confirmed.
The moniker references the double meaning of a 'fathom': the standard length of a pair of outstretched arms and the discovery of meaning.

A Louisiana vehicle owner caught a local dealership red-handed using her SUV as a temporary donor vehicle for another customer's repair—and she captured the whole confrontation on video.

After her vehicle sat on the lot for more than a month with minimal updates from staff, Poullard decided to show up at the dealership unannounced

Small but mighty Multipla could seat six
The 600 Multipla showed just what was possible in a small car, but was it actually the first MPV?Manufacturers often make dubious claims in their marketing. For instance, in finally publishing UK pricing for the Topolino microcar, Fiat called it "a fresh approach to urban mobility", despite it being nothing more than a restyled Citroën from six years ago.
The Italians were, however, justified in claiming to have made the "original people mover"

New dual-motor model trades performance and two synthesised cylinders for lower price and big range boostMercedes-AMG has expanded its GT 4-Door Coupé line-up with the 53, a lower-powered and more affordable version of the new electric super-saloon to rival the Porsche Taycan 4S.
The biggest difference from the GT 63 lies in the drivetrain: it has one fewer motor (for a total of two, giving four-wheel drive), so its combined outputs drop from 1180bhp and 1033lb ft to 5
