Norway fjords trip

This road trip allows the channel to compare these EVs in the categories that matter most to electric car shoppers. YouTube channel RSymons RSEV got its hands on the all-new Volkswagen ID.4 electric crossover. Of course, it's a First Edition model. The channel compared it to the Tesla Model 3 Long Range by taking a road trip from Edinburgh to London, plus more. Their total trip was nearly 500 miles one way. The goal of the video is to compare the ID.4's efficiency , real-world range , and charging speed with the Model 3. For a little dose of extra fun, the publication races the cars back home. We've learned over the years that what's on paper doesn't usually tell the whole story when it comes to real-world EV ownership. Let's face it, Porsche got slammed for the short EPA range of its Taycan electric car, but later, people realized it can significantly exceed its EPA range estimate. Meanwhile, Tesla 's cars, which have more rated range than any rivals, … [Read more...] about Tesla Model 3 Vs VW ID.4 Road Trip: Range, Charging, Racing

Warning: this is extremely unsafe. Pickup trucks – America loves them and it has been a popular automobile body type since the beginning. The utilitarian nature of these machines makes them a staple choice for commercial use. But pickup trucks have evolved from just clunky workhorses to lifestyle vehicles that can haul. These days, you'll rarely see a truck carrying a massive load and if you do, you'll probably see dirt bikes and other outdoor activity items on the bed, which is fine. This Ford truck owner from Mexico begs to differ, though. The video above was posted by Maara Padilla (@lapipadelapaz) on Tiktok and has gained around 12,000 reactions and nearly 3,000 shares as of this writing. Not a surprise, really – the single-cab truck in the video is seen carrying items piled up on its bed, mostly wooden items, nearly twice the height and length of the vehicle itself. Heaven knows how heavy those things are, but a quick glance at the wheel area tells us that … [Read more...] about Overloaded Ford Truck Shows Real Men Do It In One Trip

It was all inspired by the magic of Disney. At this year’s Disney D23 Expo in Anaheim, California, Honda unveiled a custom Odyssey that would look well at home in any Disney park (or any Disney fanatic's driveway). They call it the "Minnie" Van, and it's a clever play on words to honor one of Walt’s most popular characters, Minnie Mouse, inspired by the magic of Disney. The exterior is finished in hot pink with white polka dots to match Minnie's signature style. On the roof, a massive set of Minnie ears and a matching bowtie complete the package. It’s all part of Honda’s partnership with Disney-ABC and the "Disney Unlock the Magic Sweepstakes," which will see the Honda Odyssey make a special appearance on an upcoming Disney’s Mickey and the Roadster Racers special. As part of the "Disney Unlock the Magic Sweepstakes," one lucky winner will walk away with a grand prize vacation to Disneyland Resort in California, as well as an all-new Honda Odyssey minivan… … [Read more...] about Honda Creates Adorable Odyssey ‘Minnie’ Van For Disney’s D23

Gasly followed fellow midfield runners Charles Leclerc and Fernando Alonso into the pits when rain began to fall at sections of the Hockenheim circuit on lap 44 of 67. But while his two rivals headed back out on intermediates, Gasly's STR13 was equipped with the blue-walled full wet Pirelli compound. The gamble did not work out, as Gasly struggled to remain on the mostly dry track surface, and by the time he switched back to slicks three laps later, he had lost over a minute. Speaking after the race, Gasly – who was the only driver to run the wet compound – explained that the unorthodox tyre call was not his decision, and even caught him by surprise. "At that time they asked me my opinion," Gasly recalled. "I told them the rain is still pretty light, and they asked me to pit, but I didn't really expect them to put the wet. "They put them on and then I was like 'yeah, okay, let's try', they have the [weather] radar and I didn't have it, of course you don't have … [Read more...] about Gasly “didn’t expect” Toro Rosso’s wet tyre call
