There’s something hilarious about this story of a guy in Russia trying to steal three Ladas three very distinct times only to have all three of them give up the ghost before he could actually, y’know, carry out the deed. Is it because someone was so desperate to steal a Lada that they tried three times? The the…

Oh, Canada. That’s not me starting to sing their national anthem—more of a sympathetic sigh. Officials really tried to lower the volume of traffic for the citizens of Alberta’s capitol, Edmonton, but instead created the perfect set up to encourage enthusiasts and heroes to rev their engines as loud as possible.

“Are you writing this up already?” they asked as I did some other busywork in the hotel room, the morning coming to a close in the hotel room the day after. “No, should I?” Tom from the Front Street drift crew offered a headline: “I went street drifting with the Front Street Crew and it fucking sucked.” To be fair, it…

If you’re like many of our readers, you’re fabulously wealthy and line your underpants with $50 bills, just because it feels so good. You’re also always about to buy some new premium automobile of some kind, but you’re probably bored as hell with all the Mercedeses and BMWs and Range Rovers and Audis and Bentleys and…

When the all-electric Chrysler Portal minivan was revealed at the 2017 Consumer Electronics Show we had two takes: Chrysler forced a bunch of obnoxious millennial-mobile PR talk into the presentation of a pretty cool car, and it actually made a lot of sense. Well, however you feel about it, you’re about to be feeling…

Tesla has been fairly busy as of late trying to ramp up production of the Model 3 sedan while having to address the innumerable controversies CEO Elon Musk has drummed up on Twitter. It also has a number of products in the works—a semi, a new Roadster, an all-electric crossover, a pickup truck (maybe). One thing it’s…

I’ll admit, this story from AutoClassics.com is incredibly light on details and I’ve had trouble finding other sources for it, but it’s fun, so what the hell: in Russia, a guy tries to steal three Ladas, on three separate occasions, and each time the Ladas break down before he can complete his crime. See, a Lada’s…

Most of us North Americans probably only witnessed this car in video games. For many, the Renault Sport Clio V6 never actually existed outside of Gran Turismo. I mean, why would a dorky little compact car shaped like a cartoon with a V6 engine where the back seats should be even be a thing?

As Jalopnik’s resident car buying expert and professional car shopper, I get emails. Lots of emails. Sometimes folks get into a tough spot or don’t know what to do, so I’ve decided to pick a few questions and try to help out.

My favorite thing about Monterey Car Week is you can just show up with no plans of going to any events and you’ll still see incredible cars driving around Monterey and Carmel. Not just any cars, either, but some of the best of the best. Stuff that looks like they’ve driven straight here from a bedroom poster.

The best cars are the ones that get used. Driven. Hooned. Appreciated as the functional objects that they are. That’s why it’s impossible to look at Luis Millan’s well-loved turbo widebody 1990 Mazda Miata and not smile a little. This is how you do track cars right, and importantly, how to do it on a budget like a…

We’ve seen lots of spy shots and even videos of the mid-engine Corvette prototypes running around but almost all of them seem to point to the use of a dual-clutch transmission. While we don’t have any concrete, confirmed details on the powertrain yet, a new patent application from General Motors may show how a manual…

Several months back, word trickled out that Elio Motors’ latest plan to rescue its dream to bring a three-wheeled car to life involved raising funds from the creation of a digital “token” dubbed ElioCoin. Put aside any doubts if that sounds like a dubious proposal because, on Thursday, Elio announced the pre-sale (??)…
