Awesome Rides

Indian Motorcycles are as old as the sport itself. First produced in 1901, Indian bikes had some legendary riders including Steve McQueen. After spending a day in the saddle of the brand new Chieftain Elite in not-so-sunny San Diego, we can see why.

Jaguar will soon be offering 10 Series 1 E-Types that have been restored to their original specifications and condition, thanks to the master builders at Jaguar Land Rover Classic Works. It’s the only way to bring back the legendary sports car.

Jeep and Mopar will debut several concept vehicles at the 51st Annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari on 4/8/17. The highlights of the collection include the powerful Quicksand off-road hot rod, the see-through Safari, and the 1990’s Grand Cherokee-inspired Grand One.

The Porsche 550 Beck Spyder is a faithful recreation of the famous car that killed James Dean. Our friends at DriveWithDave took one for a spin. 180 hp and 1200 lb make this little road rocket huge fun to drive at a fraction of the price of the real thing.

We spent a few days behind the wheel of Ford’s fastest Fusion – a mid-sized sedan with a turbo V6, 325hp, 380 lb-ft. of torque, AWD, and adaptive dampers. We found a capable daily driver that’s also a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Check out our full review on 95octane.

Madman inventor Colin Furze spent the last few weeks putting the finishing touches on a bonkers bumper car that packs a 600cc engine with 100bhp. Naturally, the man best equipped for its record-breaking run was Top Gear’s The Stig. Build videos here and here.

If Lexus’ latest automotive autonomy feature sounds too good to be true, that’s because it’s way too close to April Fools Day for us to buy it. Still, the idea that you could force annoying drivers to move out of your way remotely should come standard on all modern vehicles.

Off-road race driver BJ Baldwin roars across the streets and jungles of Cuba in his 850 hp Toyota/Toyo Trucks trophy truck on an epic mission that sees him burning rubber, putting his suspension system to the test, and catching insane amounts of air along the way.

The latest version of Mercane Wheels‘ personal transportation device uses a stable, yet nimble 3-wheel setup for easy riding, a quick folding mechanism, a powerful 500-watt motor that speeds you along up to 22 mph, and an 8.6Ah battery for up to 25 mi of cruising range.

Racing seats improve safety and stop your body from jostling around when cornering. ChrisFix recently went out to buy a racing seat and used it as an opportunity to explain the basics of the equipment: their types, materials, how it should fit you and your car, and more.

An easy to install shock-absorbing seat post for practically any kind of bicycle. The Rinsten Spring absorbs vibrations from all three dimensions and can be easily adjusted to suit your needs. It’s available in a variety of colors.

During the 2017 Monster Jam World Finals XVIII, driver Lee O’Donnell was zipping around the dirt in his beastly ride, The Mad Scientist, when he pulled off a stunt never before performed in a monster truck – a front flip. Naturally, he went on to win the freestyle competition.

We got behind the wheel of Alfa’s 505 hp Super Bowl star car. Beyond its striking looks, it drives fantastically, with precise steering, a superbly stiff chassis, and more power than we need, but exactly as much as we want. Hear it launch, then read our full review on 95octane.

Our friends at DriveWithDave spent some time on the road with a vintage Ferrari 330 GTC. Its 300 hp V12 made it a fast, comfortable cruiser designed to carry the well-heeled to their destination in style. Luxurious, powerful, and one of Ferrari’s best GTs, only 600 were made.

Previously available only in Japan, a selection of Tern’s awesome Roji lineup of bicycles is coming to the Americas, Europe, and other parts of Asia. Our favorites? The Surge and Crest – hybrid 451 wheel mini velos perfect for zipping around urban environments.

“Bugatti calls this the world’s fastest concert hall, and they’re not wrong. But the real symphony is out back.” Carfection shows us just what $2.6M gets you: an incredibly luxurious car that morphs in a split-second depending on how hard you step on the gas. More here.

Howe & Howe’s Ripsaw EV2 offers incredible speed and agility off-road, while keeping its occupants clean and dry inside its high tech cockpit. It’s got more than 12″ of suspension travel and a 600+hp diesel engine. It also comes in a “pickup” version that carries bikes.

Do you hate waiting in traffic? The Hum Rider solves this problem by widening its wheels to ride between the lanes, then rising up about nine feet in the air to drive right over traffic jams. We want one, but sadly it’s just a promotional stunt for Verizon’s Hum car gadgets.

“Use the word by its definition: reduced to a state of ruin.” An amateur short track racer receives an unnerving offer: an anonymous benefactor will give him a new car if he causes a wreck on the track. This well-shot short film builds up to an intense resolution.

Our friends at DriveWithDave took a Porsche Outlaw for a spin. Incredible sheet metal transform a Porsche C coupe into an open speedster, with a 2.2 liter 6-cylinder 911 motor, giving it gobs of grunt and the exhaust note Porsches are known for.

The Fast & Furious series banks on beautiful cars, beautiful people and beautiful stunts. But it wouldn’t be around if its filmmakers didn’t nail the basics of car chase scenes, which mainly involve giving viewers a consistent direction to contextualize the action.

Originally built for an NHL player, Classic Ford Broncos‘ Naples is a beautifully overhauled ’71 Bronco. It uses Ford’s new Coyote 5.0 engine, a Ford four-speed automatic transmission, and a beautiful baby blue and chocolate brown color scheme.
