There's a massive loss through the drivetrain, but understandable in a truck. As it stands, the 2021 Ram TRX is the most powerful bone-stock truck coming from the factory without the need for electrification. The Hellcat-powered Ram 1500 makes use of its supercharged 6.2-liter V8 to churn out up to 702 horsepower (523 kilowatts) and 650 pound-feet (881 newton-meters). Those numbers are sent to all four wheels but, of course, there will be drivetrain loss, which could affect the numbers if measure at the wheels. Hennessey aims to discover the output at the wheels, as seen on its latest benchmarking video of the 2021 Ram TRX. Interestingly, the Texas-based tuner only measured the output at the rear wheels (not sure how on the TRX).

Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo First Drive: Taking Taycan To New Heights
The Taycan gets ready for a rougher, more rugged road ahead. Our own Kyle Conner took us by surprise this week. That's because he enjoyed a previous opportunity to drive the upcoming Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo , though he kept it a secret. The information was embargoed, so he wasn't allowed to share it right away. Kyle says the Taycan Cross Turismo in the video above is a production-intent test mule. The same car has been making its way across the globe for folks to review. Kyle checked it out some time ago in Malibu, California. He provides a full tour of the car, as well as a test drive. For those unaware, the Taycan Cross Turismo is a more rugged version of the all-electric Taycan four-door sedan. It's more versatile and capable thanks to its wagon configuration and higher ground clearance. In addition, this fast wagon provides more passenger and cargo space than the Taycan sedan. More specifically, you'll enjoy additional rear-seat headroom. *All images courtesy … [Read more...] about Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo First Drive: Taking Taycan To New Heights

The Estonian now holds a 23.6-second advantage over the Toyota of Kalle Rovanpera, who has passed the Hyundai of Craig Breen for second place overall.

Teenage Swedish driver Oliver Solberg holds sixth place in his first-ever appearance at the wheel of a full WRC car, driving a 2020-spec Hyundai and keeping in front of the 2021-spec Toyotas of Takamoto Katsuta and defending champion Sebastien Ogier. The M-Sport Ford Fiestas of Teemu Suninen and Gus Greensmith complete the top 10. “In the end a good morning, yes, but very, very demanding,” said Tanak. “The stages are incredibly fast and at that speed, never seeing the roads, the pacenotes are never 100% and you always have places where it’s a bit this way or the other way… so far so good!” Read Also: Hyundai wants "nothing less than victory" in Arctic Rally In … [Read more...] about Arctic WRC: Tanak extends lead with double stage wins
This 2021 Lexus IS One-Off Sneaker Is Design Inspiration Done Right
Now, that's how you do it. What's up with cars and sneakers these days? I've just wrapped a previous story about a Hummer EV-inspired rubber shoe by John Geiger , which, by the way, we're struggling to find a connection between the two. We've also seen a collaboration between Puma and Porsche before, celebrating the birth of the new 911 Turbo. Now, Lexus releases a pair that's inspired by the 2021 IS F Sport. Good thing, we see the connection between the footwear and the luxury sedan even without reading what the press release has to say.
