Awesome Rides

Despite being named the Transit Elevated Bus (TEB), this public transportation vehicle is actually a tram because it only goes over tracks on the road. It’s just that its passenger compartment is raised to let cars pass beneath it. A TEB car can carry up to 300 people.

Custom car builder Ron Berry created this amazing interpretation of the classic Volkswagen Type 2 bus, which looks like it just dropped into the real world from an old Hanna-Barbera cartoon. Seriously, this thing is way cooler than Speed Buggy ever was.

Broken odometers are one of the most common problems in older cars, but they’re relatively easy to replace. ChrisFix shows us how and explains how odometers work in the process. All you need are flathead and Torx screwdrivers.

We visited Toyota’s 4.2m sq.ft. San Antonio Texas manufacturing plant to see how they build their rugged Tacoma and Tundra pickups. Over 7200 people from Toyota and its partners work in concert with robotics to complete a truck every 60 seconds. (Video by Jim Rough)

Carfection checks out the new NSX to see if it’s still a daily driver supercar. The answer is a confident “yes,” with the car’s cutting edge tech working so well you barely notice they’re there, and you’re left with a familiar, comfortable and fun driving experience.

One of the coolest motorcycles ever made is going under the hammer. One of only 100 units made, this particular C-01 is has a carbon fiber shell, a 175hp 1195cc KTM V-twin, carbon fiber wheels, 320mm Brembo brakes, Ohlins rear suspension and the classic Lotus livery.

Unlimited Engineering’s Eon is an easy to assemble kit that is compatible with practically any skateboard deck. It lets you go up to 22mph for up to 7.5mi per charge, but you can also opt to have dual motors, dual batteries or both for more speed, power and range.

The latest version of Howe & Howe’s all-terrain vehicle for wheelchair users has a 29hp 4-stroke engine, a 1,000lb draw bar pull, an emergency override and alarm. It can go up to 10mph and can be customized with cup and fishing rod holders, lights, a winch and more.

Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, British automaker Bristol has been brought back to life by new owners, and is starting with this sublime and elegant 2-seater. It’s crafted from carbon fiber, weighs just 2400lb, and has a 4.8L BMW V8 that launches the car to 62 mph in just 3.8s.

To promote its Open Country tires, Toyo Tires worked with Action Vehicle Engineering to create a one-off ATV. It’s based on a 1959 Ferret Scout, a British armored reconnaisance vehicle. It has a third pair of hydraulically-driven wheels to help it conquer rough terrain.

As part of Jeep’s 75th anniversary celebration, the company made a one-off homage to the original Jeep – the Willys MB. Based on a Wrangler Sport, the 75th Salute has a 286hp 3.6L V6 engine, a six-speed manual and old school military wheels and graphics.

Simply the best Corvette yet. It’s got a 460hp 6.2L V8 with a dry-sump oil system, bigger aero, and grippier tires for amazing cornering. With the Z07 package, it does 0-60 in 3.6s, brakes 60-0 in <100ft, and 1.2g lateral acceleration. Check out our first drive review on 95octane.

Jay Leno’s Garage showcases a beautiful, durable and (more or less) practical hot rod that started out as half of a rotting Model T. But the real gem here is its builder, Clayton Paddison, who has a couple of touching stories about his car. Test drive at 19:33.

During last year’s Porsche Carrera Cup France, a bizarre accident occurred right after the start of the race, as one car spun around in tight traffic, and another drove right up onto its hood. The result: The world’s first double-decker Porsche.

This daft, yet awesome concept design from YasidDESIGN combines the body styling of a Land Rover Defender with the ground-hugging properties of a stock car. Before you off-road and NASCAR purists get your panties in a bunch, it’s only a rendering.

You’ll want to put your headphones on for this one. Car fanatic 19Bozzy92 decided to record his latest video with a 3D binaural microphone. The resulting audio is the next best thing to standing trackside as these amazing Ferrari F1 cars zip around the circuit at Mugello.

Mercedes-Benz teamed up with luxury golf cart maker Garia to create a concept vehicle that embodies the German automaker’s impeccable sports car aesthetics. It rides on 14″ sports wheels, has a high-tech dashboard, and we love that the grille looks like a giant golf ball.

“When you’re done driving the car, you’re really happy, because it’s over.” John Campion spoke with Petrolicious about his rally car collection, particularly the Delta S4, which is the first car to have both a turbocharger and a supercharger.

The sporty new variant of the Elantra inherits the compact sedan’s great new design, but also gets 53 extra horses, with a 200hp 1.6L turbocharged engine, independent multi-link rear suspension, dual exhaust, a D-shaped steering wheel, sport seats, and more.

Jay Leno visits the secret vault of “a small company” called Aston Martin to check out a prototype of its flagship GT, the DB 11. Then he takes it on an ever so tame test drive against stunt driver and former Stig Ben Collins and the new V12 Vantage S.

A futuristic bicycle that takes its inspiration from TRON’s lightcycles. It has hubless wheels, airless tires, a carbon fiber frame, integrated LED illumination, a wealth of sensors, and an optional electronic gearbox. And yes, the bike shown in the video is a real, working prototype.
