As a result of an internal memo from Toyota getting leaked onto the GR Corolla Forum, we now know that the GR Corolla will be hitting showrooms in America in October of this year. This lines up with Toyota’s statement from back in March that the base Core level GR Corolla would go on sale in late 2022. However, it is unclear if this means all trims of the GR Corolla will be on sale or just the base Core trim as the leaked memo does not specify either way.

UK-based Clews Competition Motorcycles (CCM) is a name popular for its retro-looking, performance-oriented offerings, and staying true to its nature, the British bikemaker has now unveiled the Classic Tracker. New for 2022, the Classic Tracker takes inspiration from flat track motorcycles and aims to offer the same level of fun (as a flat track bike) but on the public roads. How? Well, read on to know exactly that.

CFMoto might’ve just made a comeback in the USA with its gas-powered bikes, but it’s progressed well ahead in its home country, China. A prime example of this is the all-new CFMoto 300GT-E, the company’s all-electric police bike built to take down miscreants in an eco-friendly way. Let’s take a look.

Insufficient sales of the E-Class coupe and the C-Class coupe cannot go unnoticed, and it is finally the time to give the last hurrah to the current models. Automotive News reports that the Stuttgart-based carmaker has confirmed the discontinuation of these models with U.S., and the launch of their replacement, the new CLE-Class is imminent. If the cards are played right, the new CLE-Class will be an instant hit because it will be very similar to the Mercedes-AMG SL-Class in terms of design aesthetics and features.

As of 2022, it’s safe to say that EVs are mainstream. With all major mass-market automakers offering multiple EVs in their portfolio, it is confusing to choose one. EVs, with their convenience and refinement, make for great family runabouts if the range isn’t a major concern, but, with a whole range of EVs to choose from, the decision-making process is getting increasingly difficult. So, here is a list of 10 EVs that we think should be on your list if you are on the lookout for an electric family car.

Someone must have told Toyota that electric vehicles are supposed to be different. For its first dedicated EV, the company applied that lesson with blacked-out fenders, a fabric-upholstered dashboard, an inscrutable gear selector, and an alphabet-soup name.

The result is the 2023 Toyota bZ4X — the “bZ” standing for a new all-electric “beyond zero” subbrand. At the same time, the bZ4X is more “normal” than many other leading EVs. It focuses on a smooth, quiet ride over explosive power and sporty handling. And despite its quirks, the Toyota’s interior is more plush than ultramodern.

Priced from $42,000 before a $7,500 federal tax credit, the bZ4X is a front-wheel-drive-based crossover that slots between the compact and mid-size segments. Toyota co-developed it with Subaru, which will sell a near-clone of the bZ4X as the Solterra. We just spent a week in a preproduction bZ4X to see how it fits into the fast-growing electric crossover segment.

The Tesla Cybertruck is one of the most anticipated yet controversial vehicles in recent times. This is mainly due to the fact that the all-electric pickup truck from Tesla was unveiled back in 2019 and despite numerous preorders, still hasn’t seen the light of day. While Elon Musk assures us that the Cybertruck will go on sale in 2023, Tesla may have dropped the ball since other carmakers have, not only brought it up, but beat Tesla to the EV pickup truck game, a case in point being the Ford F-150 Lightning, Rivian R1T, and the GMC Hummer EV.

The Bike Shed motorcycle show is a sacred place for custom bikemakers to flaunt their skills via epic builds. So, for this year’s show, Amsterdam-based Ironwood Motorcycles wanted to create something stunning, and boy, did they live up to it!

Once a BMW R NineT, this custom motorcycle looks from a different world altogether and backs this up with some exceptional customizations, which we’ll be diving into.

The Ducati adventure bike family continues to evolve, and this progress comes in the form of the new DesertX. Truly a model for every surface, the DesertX rocks a tough-looking build supported by a robust frame, driven by a torquey twin, and backed up by a sweet electronics suite to manage it all.

KTM’s big-bore naked bike, the 1290 Super Duke R EVO, rolls into 2022 with an additional electronic gee-gaw in the form of the Semi-Active Suspension Technology feature. This is, of course, on top of all the usual sophistication that was already standard on KTM’s biggest naked-sport offering that made this machine such an apex predator.

A few days ago, we reported that Ukrainian soldiers were using electric motorcycles in the war to sneak up on the Russian army. Now, following in these footsteps, African wildlife conservation parks are equipping park rangers with electric motorcycles to travel deep in the forests and combat poachers.

BMW launched into MY2021 with a freshly updated R 1250 GS base model accompanied by a 40th year anniversary model that sports the Option 719 “bumblebee” livery. The boxer-twin powerplant remains the same mechanically but comes with improved ride-control and safety electronics along with some long-requested optional comfort gear and a full line of ex-werke accessory equipment to boot. BMW brings its on- and off-road experience together to make a truly capable globetrotter, and decidedly not the two-wheeled equivalent of a soccer mom’s SUV.

After a six-year-long hiatus, Chengfung Motors (CFMoto) has made a comeback in the U.S. motorcycle market by launching not one, not two, but seven motorcycles, namely the Papio, 300NK, 300SS, 650NK, 650 Adventura, and the 700 CL-X twins. Let’s take a look at them one by one.

Long before Ducati introduced the Lamborghini edition of the Diavel, the Italian giant had joined hands with Mercedes’ performance division AMG to give us the Ducati Diavel AMG special edition. As you’d expect, only a handful of these went on sale, and only a handful of lucky owners got a chance to own this beauty.

However, if you wanna join this exclusive club, we’re happy to report that there is a 2013 Ducati Diavel AMG edition up for auction on Bring A Trailer, thus enabling you to do exactly that.

Being a toned-down version of the Maxima, the Altima has been one of the most value-for-money compact sedans with a starting price lower than $25,000. And while it is Nissan’s go-to budget car, it receives a few updates for 2023 to keep it fresh and modern. For example, the exterior has a sportier appearance with an updated grille, front bumper, new wheel designs, and two new exterior colors. However, the cabin design remains mostly unchanged. But a new 12.3-inch infotainment display is standard on the SL and SR, while available as an option for the SV. A set of new driver assistance features are added to the list, too, including automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection and blindspot monitoring.

With OTT platforms taking over conventional TVs, the OG cartoons like Looney Tunes have disappeared from the horizon altogether, leaving millennials and Gen-X with no option but to reminisce the good ol’ days. However, if you’re a motorcycle fanatic in love with Looney Tunes, let us offer an epic solution. Meet the Daffy Duc, a custom Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled by Portland-based MotoCorsa which dons a smashing Looney Tunes-inspired livery among other noteworthy changes. Oh, and it’s up for grabs too.

As stunning as the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 may be in its stock avatar, it can start to feel a little monotonous after a while. This is exactly where the need for bolt-on kits arises, and if you’re in the market for one, we have some good news. Germany-based Crooked Motorcycles has introduced two stunning bolt-on kits for the RE Interceptor 650 which lets you transform the bike either into a scrambler or a cafe-racer. Intrigued? Then, let’s dive into it.

When Toyota unveiled the new generation Supra back in 2019 it only offered it with an eight-speed automatic gearbox. It’s an alright gearbox, but a true sports car at least offers the option of a manual transmission. Toyota needed almost three years to understand that, and, at the beginning of 2022, Toyota finally started offering the Supra with the long-waited six-speed manual transmission. Now, the question is: if you want to buy a Toyota sports car with a manual transmission should you go for the updated Supra or for the recently launched GR86? The guys over TopGear try to answer that question for you in their latest episode.

If you are in the market for a new car, there are plenty of options available today. The price bracket doesn’t matter, because you have multiple offerings right from $20,000 to one million dollars, and even beyond that. The only difference is that the options are a lot more when you’re in the mass market segment, especially under $35,000. There’s no denying that the higher the choices, the more it can confuse a person. So, to help sort things for you to a certain extent, we’ve come up with a list of the 10 best cars under $35,000 that you can buy in 2022, and it includes vehicles ranging from crossovers to sedans to SUVs, and even cars from premium marques.

Ford CEO Jim Farley says the future EVs from the blue oval will not simply be electrified versions of current models. This means that the brand’s lineup will grow considerably, and it has even been said that fans of current models might not like the future electric models.
