"Edmunds recently posted a video in which host Carlos Lago drag races a Tesla Model S Plaid against a Suzuki Hayabusa and a Kawasaki ZX-14R, two of the fastest factory bikes currently on sale. And neither could beat the Tesla in a race from a dead stop. To be fair to the bikes, and their rider, Chris Moore, Carlos definitely had the easier time of it. The Tesla’s electric motors produce their maximum 1050 lbs-ft of torque just off idle, and distribute it to the ground via all four wheels. Pretty much all he has to do is drop the hammer and go."
"The 2022 Volkswagen Golf GTI and Hyundai Veloster N will both satisfy buyers looking to add a fun-to-drive hot hatch to their garage. In a direct comparison, the Golf GTI’s better mix of utility and comfort helps it earn the win. But the Veloster’s quicker acceleration and emphasis on value can’t be ignored."
"The main lesson to draw from Edmunds' tests: the Model S Plaid beats not only every four-wheeled vehicle, but any stock road-going vehicle you can buy, period. And that's not all that surprising, given that this is a four-door sedan that puts any Lamborghini, Ferrari, or McLaren to shame."
"Car shoppers are buying crossovers and SUVs in large numbers, which leaves little room for other models. That squeeze is leaving shoppers with less diversity of choice, but the sales figures are undeniable."
"Whatever your desired level of performance, there’s likely a sporty midsize sedan that’s right for you. The best choices for sporty midsize sedans are the ones that have satisfying performance without any loss of comfort or convenience."
"Buying a hybrid no longer means sacrificing utility and space for the sake of fuel efficiency."
"Don’t count on new-car discounts. 'I tell people that they have to recalibrate their idea of what kind of a discount they can get,' says Ron Montoya, senior consumer advice editor for car-buying site"
"When the typical response to unwind a deal is likely to be “no,” it’s best to never put yourself in the position of asking. Head off any issues by being a prepared car buyer who knows a car’s pricing, reads the sales contract carefully, and fully inspects the car before taking ownership."
"Many of the common check engine light symptoms involve reduced fuel economy. This should motivate folks to take their vehicle to a mechanic sooner rather than later since it could cost them in more ways than one."
"Off-road vehicles can provide years of adventure and family-friendly fun, provided you choose the right truck or SUV for your lifestyle. Affordable models are a great option over fully loaded versions because they offer strong capability without being so expensive that you’ll be afraid to actually use them."
