2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid Reveal

Nissan’s 2027 Rogue Hybrid Puts e-POWER On American Roads For The First Time

By

2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid Reveal
Nissan spent years selling e-POWER overseas before it finally landed on a U.S. compact SUV, and the 2027 Rogue Hybrid is the first American application of that third-generation series setup. Dual electric motors do all the driving. A turbocharged 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine never turns the wheels. It only feeds a 1.67-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion pack and a generator so you refill at a regular pump and skip any charging cable. Combined output is 225 horsepower, with a 202-horse front motor and a 134-horse rear motor giving the crossover standard all-wheel drive and instant pull from a stop.

Six-Wheeled 2019 Ford EcoSport Titanium Stretch For Sale

Six Wheels of Extra Steel, a Custom 2019 Ford EcoSport Titanium Stretch Sells on Bring a Trailer

Six-Wheeled 2019 Ford EcoSport Titanium Stretch For Sale
A 2019 Ford EcoSport Titanium left Ford as a short compact crossover with four wheels, Titanium trim, and a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter Duratec four-cylinder rated at 166 horsepower and 149 pound-feet. Prior ownership later sliced the body open behind the rear doors, welded in an extra rear section plus an auxiliary subframe, and added a third axle so six matching 17-inch alloy wheels now sit on Firestone WeatherGrip tires. Black paint and thin white pinstripes cover the longer sides, filler panels close the gaps, and a roof-mounted wing sits over the stretch. A side-swinging rear gate still opens onto cargo space lined in gray deep-pile carpet.

Max vs 100 Go-Kart Race

Max vs 100 Sends Max Verstappen From Last on a 101 Kart Silverstone Grid to First in 35 Minutes

By

Max vs 100 Go-Kart Race
Red Bull staged Max vs 100 on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, as the largest go-kart race ever run, lining 101 identical karts on a purpose-built layout at Silverstone designed by race director David Terrien. Max Verstappen started 101st with a simple brief: catch and pass every driver ahead of him inside 30 laps or 75 minutes. Once the rear of his kart drew level with the front of another, that driver was out for good. The 100 people in front of him were athletes, content creators, streamers, journalists, and fans, most of whom had seen the track only in Tuesday practice plus one qualifying lap. Dutch Formula One journalist Jacky Martens took pole. YouTuber Zac Alsop and Red Bull Ford Powertrains technician Lewis Osler sat near the front with him.

Tesla Accordion Supercharger Bavaria

Tesla Accordion Supercharger Bavaria
Tesla Charging posted the first Accordion Supercharger on September 15 and laid the plan out in one short clip. Factory work now covers the posts, the cabinet, the wiring, the cooling lines, and the concrete pads so a finished island leaves the plant instead of a pile of parts. Two of those eight-stall packages fit on a single truck, which means sixteen V4 stalls arrive in one run. Tesla says that package costs about 20 percent less to put in the ground than a conventional station and commissions as soon as utility power is tied in.

Toyota’s DKR GR FC Hilux Is a Fuel-Cell Pickup That Will Race in the Dakar Rally on Water Alone

By

Toyota DKR GR FC Hilux Hydrogen Truck
Gazoo Racing is sending a Hilux into the 2027 Dakar Rally that will never touch gasoline. Called the DKR GR FC Hilux, the truck keeps the tubular chassis, short wheelbase, high fenders and long-travel suspension of the GR DKR Hilux EVO T1+ that has already won the event four times, then pulls the twin-turbo V6 and puts a Toyota fuel cell in its place. Hydrogen and oxygen meet in the stack, electricity feeds the motors, and the only thing leaving the tailpipe is water. That is the entire plan for 13 timed stages and 1,000 competitive kilometers across Saudi sand, rock and dry riverbeds from January 1 to 15, 2027.

BMW iX5 Hydrogen Production Fuel Cell Test Drive

BMW iX5 Hydrogen Leaves Camouflage Behind and Heads for the Factory Floor

By

BMW iX5 Hydrogen Production Fuel Cell Test Drive
BMW rolled uncamouflaged iX5 Hydrogen prototypes into public view this month and followed them with a new video of the hardware, a pairing that finally makes the project look like a car headed for customers instead of another closed-door experiment. Officials in Munich said the current fleet is running a full validation program while the third-generation fuel cell system enters a fresh assembly phase, and Plant Steyr in Austria is already taking delivery of test benches and production gear. Those three tracks running at once is the point. BMW wants the first hydrogen model it will actually sell to leave the development loop with factory processes already practiced, not invented after the last prototype is signed off.

Khyzyl Saleem stretched Hyundai’s IONIQ 5 N into a Group B-inspired rally car that looks ready to leave the tarmac and start hunting special stages. Saleem produced the renders for Hyundai USA as a follow-up to last month’s Baja Santa Fe concept, packing the already angular N hatch with period-correct 1980s rally aggression and a bodykit that completely changes its proportions.
