Range Rover is preparing to take a new approach to modern car interiors. The brand wants fewer screens in its future lineup. As rivals, particularly Chinese brands, continue filling dashboards with increasingly large displays, the British luxury marque is planning to reduce screen sizes across its new models. The strategy has been previewed by the upcoming Range Rover GT. Its cabin features a centrally mounted touchscreen positioned lower on the dashboard, accompanied by a slim digital driver display. There is no huge screen stretching across the dashboard, while a dedicated passenger display has also been considered unnecessary. Range Rover believes…
Elon Musk recently restated a fact that still defines SpaceX’s origin story: if Falcon 1’s fourth launch had failed, the company would not exist. The comment answered a reminder that after three consecutive losses, SpaceX had money for only one more attempt. On X, Peter Diamandis said that the present-day acknowledgement of SpaceX’s success does not discount the rough start the company had. “Almost nobody remembers that Elon’s first rocket failed three times, and there was money for exactly only one more attempt.” Musk said, “If the 4th launch had failed, SpaceX would not exist.” If the 4th launch had…

All cars come with a ZF eight-speed automatic gearbox. It’s a good combination with the 2.0-litre engine and delivers quick and sharp gear changes. The aluminium paddles on the steering column add a level of tactility that’s lacking in some of the Stelvio’s rivals – those cars tend to use flimsier plastic paddles. If you’re a keen driver who likes to take control, you’ll appreciate this touch. Town driving, visibility and parkingThe fundamental benefits of an SUV are clear in the Stelvio, as even with a high dash and thin glass, there’s still a good view out from the front…

Police reported it as a car that failed to stop. What no one reported is that Tesla’s own data says the car’s driver-assist system was engaged.
