The reviews are in and the Alpine A110 is one of the most enjoyable, best-handling cars in a generation—ultra-light and ultra-fun. Unless a moose walks out into the road, apparently. Then you might be going backwards into a tree.
The Toyota Hilux is supposed to be right behind cockroaches and John McClane on our comprehensive list of “hardest things to kill.” But looks like we might have finally found this supertruck’s kryptonite: evasive maneuvering.
In 2015, automotive journalist Pablo González got a Jeep Renegade to lock its brakes so hard the rear wheels lifted off the ground. Jeep told him that car was broken, and he wasn’t able to repeat the problem with other Renegades. But now it’s starting to look like the issue might not be so isolated.

The people of Sweden enjoy a high quality existence that includes universal health care, neat names full of letters we don't get, and Ikea furniture. There is, however, one threat to the Swedish way of life that stands above all others. I am, of course, talking about Alces alces, better known as the moose.
Today we saw Toyota joking that its GT86 doesn't care about dodging moose. What if you didn't want to dodge a moose but drive completely under one?
When the Jeep Grand Cherokee failed the Moose Test, a minor scandal arose. This time, a recreation of the famous Swedish road maneuver trial with a Toyota GT-86/Scion FR-S is actually funny.
