In an eye-opening demo at a high-tech office building in Seoul, Hyundai WIA, the carmaker’s manufacturing arm, rolled out parking robots that could make squeezing into tight urban spots feel like a breeze.
Porsche has a knack for turning racetrack dreams into asphalt reality, and the 963 RSP, unveiled this morning near the legendary Circuit de la Sarthe, is a mind-blowing case in point.

This time, it’s not just a strap—it’s a multi-adaptive safety belt that uses real-time data to tailor protection to each occupant and every crash scenario.

Thanks to a stunning video by YouTuber Dino DC, shot and edited by automotive videographer Alec Pender, this forgotten gem is back in the spotlight.
Electric vehicles are everywhere, zipping through city streets with quiet confidence, but charging them remains a puzzle. Home chargers work for those with garages, and fast-charging stations dot highways, but what about city dwellers parked on busy streets?
