Karma Automotive on Thursday unveiled the new Amaris series plug-in hybrid coupe during the company’s first Create Karma product presentation event held in Irvine, California. Karma was gearing up to launch a separate coupe, the fully electric Kaveya, in 2026, but the company on Thursday said it would delay that model to 2027 due to changing demand dynamics for electric vehicles in the high-end sector. The Amaris will help plug the gap by launching on the market in late 2026. An Ivara electric SUV is also due in 2027. Unlike the Kaveya, which has been designed around a new dedicated…

Over a year after it went on sale, the Tesla Cybertruck is still presenting issues that require recalls. A recall of 46,096 electric pickup trucks announced Tuesday deals with their stainless steel exteriors. The cant rail, one of the exterior trim pieces, can fall off, according to the NHTSA. That can pose a hazard to other road users. The stainless steel cant rail trim piece is attached to an electrocoated steel stamping with structural adhesive, according to recall documents. That adhesive apparently wasn’t up to the job, allowing the stainless steel piece to separate under certain conditions. If that happens, drivers…

Bugatti’s Tourbillon hypercar, with its carbon-fiber chassis and V-16 plug-in hybrid powertrain generating 1,775 hp, seems nearly perfect—but Bugatti has found a way to elevate it even further: adding eight exhaust tips. That’s more than the famous six exhaust tips of the iconic Type 57SC Atlantic and serves as a nod to the two banks of eight cylinders forming the V-16 engine. Also included in the package—whose name is French for “Thoroughbred Team”—are unique designs for the front splitter, rear diffuser, and rear wing, the latter featuring small endplates. The wheels, measuring 20 inches at the front and 21 at…

The V-Cross has the larger touchscreen, heated door mirrors, an eight-speaker stereo,…

Audi finally appears to be preparing a full-size SUV to take on the likes of the BMW X7, Cadillac Escalade, and Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class. A prototype for what is believed to be the first Audi Q9 has been spotted ahead of an expected debut early next year, which would likely mean a 2027 model-year arrival for the U.S. The prototype appears to be a particularly sporty variant, likely an SQ9. Clues that suggest this is an S model include the four round exhaust tips. Like other S-badged Audi SUVs, the SQ9 should ride on air suspension with adaptive dampers. The prototype…
