Perhaps one of the most American hobbies, the road-trip, has seen a vast boom this year as concerns over personal health and safety have risen. Offering excellent over the road options, the Air offers some 739 liters of luggage space in large part thanks to its compact drivetrain and battery package. Add to that the exceptional 517-mile range and it's becoming more and more clear that Lucid is serious about taking on big names such as Tesla, Porsche, and Riv Obviously, Lucid needs the Air to set...

For owners who want to see how far into the wilderness the Hummer can take them, they'll be treated to features that even some of the most extreme rock crawlers lack. For example, the Ultravision feature provides real-time camera angles of the underbody of the truck to allow drivers to see what they're driving over. Should one find themselves on a particularly tricky trail, Extract mode allows the entire vehicle to lift itself a further 6 inches to gain added cleara The Air certainly won’t be al...

The first thing to establish is that, if electric cars are going to have a hope of resonating and becoming more ubiquitous in society, the pricetags will surely have to be slashed. The original Polestar was $140,000, understandable given its tech specs, but hardly accessible to most consumers. The Polestar 2 however, is a step in the right direction, coming in at a more than reasonable $59,000 . Future incarnations are also likely to be open to modifications, which could reduce the fee further f...

The Tesla Model 3, meanwhile, can be had with a single motor and rear-wheel-drive only, but for comparison's sake, the Performance AWD Model 3 starts at $54,990 with an EPA range of 322 miles and a WLTP range of 329. The Model Y costs a few thousand bucks more and features similar stats. But how do the two sedans comp Thanks to its advanced impact protection, the Tesla Model 3 got a stellar score of five stars in crash-test safety ratings.

Volvo spinoff Polestar sure has its newest product making the rounds these days. Last month, Matt Farah of The Smoking Tire got a chance to drive a Polestar 2 around Malibu —where he was passed by another tester doing the very same thing in an identical car. Now, the Polestar 2 has made its way northward to Canada, where the YouTube channel Throttle House has pitted it in a compare-and-contrast against its main competitor, the established Tesla Model 3. Farah came away from his Polestar test dri...
