The New Mercedes S-Class: Now Just a Regular Car
There are cars in this world that seem larger than life, that tap into our subconscious and stay with us for the remained of our lives. The S-Class is one of those cars. It’s the reason why all lesser Benz motors are cool and why people pay extra for the privilege of owning any model with a three-pointed, even ... Continue Reading →
How Much Will Husqvarna Change?
The motorcycle industry has seen quite a lot of stir during the last weeks, and things are far from being over in the KTM-Husqvarna-Husaberg-BWM equation. There are several things that seem clear, but the ones that are blurry overshadow what we know so far. One thing is however certain: things are about to change big... Continue Reading →
Toyota Titans: Our New Blog Is Going Places!
Three months ago almost to the day, we announced the introduction of a brand new chapter in autoevolution's… evolution. The BMW Power Blog came onto the scene and quickly changed the name of the game. No longer bound by the constraints of old-fashioned auto journalism, we quickly found new subjects that f...

We're Obsessed With Strange Headlights!
Bulbous, tapered, squinting and just downright strange – we're very much obsessed with having strange headlights at the front our cars. It's gotten to the point where enough is enough and something has to be done. Headlights have a very important job to do, allowing us to see and be seen. Yet they ... Continue Reading →
Should We Prepare Husqvarna's Obituaries?
I am really sad each time I hear about a nice bike builder kicking the bucket, and with all the economic turmoil around the planet during the last years, it looks like major changes are about to take place. Unfortunately, some of these changes lead to disheartening results, and the hard time Husqvarna is having n... Continue Reading →
Toyota Yaris Hybrid, a Car of Many Good Deeds and a Few Sins
Audi has been winning every Le Mans race in the calendar, but as good as the R18 may be, Toyota was a huge thorn in their side last year with a brand new car that was still relatively untested. Eventually, the Japanese carmaker had to settle for less than a victory due to a couple of setbacks and some terrible crashe... Continue Reading →
Tesla Model S: The Real American Luxury Car
Deep within my subconscious, a shocking idea has been steadily growing, developing from a couple of bits of information to a terabyte of invasive ideas . You see, for a long time now I’ve been thinking that some carmakers are not connected with what people really want. It’s why the Chevy Impala isn’... Continue Reading →
Harley-Appleson and the Factory of Dreams
Being in the business of selling dreams must be pretty nice, and when it comes to the the field I work in it was really hard not to think about two of the largest dream-sellers on the planet: Harley-Davidson and Apple. What do air-cooled v-twins and iStuff have in common, some might ask. Well, nothing, if we just ... Continue Reading →
There's Something Awfully Wrong with the Maserati Ghibli
Global recession or not, the automotive industry keeps on walking. While some automakers struggle, others interrogate and eventually find ways to keep business on the safe side of that annoying yield curve. However, the way some manufacturers choose to fill in their gaps in order to rebound aren't quite orthodox... Continue Reading →
Why Volkswagen Doesn’t Need Facelifts
I’ll be honest with you guys. I really don’t know very much about smartphones. Since I’m in front of the computer for most of the day, I can’t even be bothered to upload songs and listen to them on the go. Still, just like most of you, the geekiness inside me draws my attention towards anythin... Continue Reading →
Can You Picture a 49cc BMW Scooter?
Earlier this week (April 8), the motorcycle world welcomed a new tie-up between two big names in the industry: BMW Motorrad and TVS Motor Company. The two giants announced that they embarked on a long-term cooperation agreement whose result was “profitable, sustainable growth,” as BMW Motorrad's Pres... Continue Reading →
Why Small Convertibles Belong in the Rio Carnival
Recently, I’ve come to realize that I have been living in my own little bubble. Normal people don’t actually like Ferraris all that much, at least not in my little corner of the world. They might aspire to owning a Merc’, but most have “learned” all along their lives to hate people rich ... Continue Reading →
So Many Better Ways to Kill Yourself
It looks like spring if finally shaking off its shyness in the northern hemisphere and this is a glorious period for the riders, as they can now be reunited with their bikes after several months of winter and all sorts of enemy elements. However, I just think about how fast local newspapers, forums, Facebook pages... Continue Reading →
What Will America Do With BMW Diesels?
Everybody knows what to expect from a diesel engined car. It will make the sound of piece of farmyard equipment and will be as fast as a pensioner’s electric wheelchair. Hold on a minute, this is 2013, and that’s no longer true! In 2009, the BMW 335d was heralded as the most fuel efficient car the Germ... Continue Reading →
Car Trim Levels Suffer from Twin Sister Syndrome
You know how all twins are exactly the same… but somehow not exactly the same. I had a teacher in high school like that. She had a slightly better looking twin who married a rich guy, while she went to work every day and had her liver destroyed by a bunch of kids who would never shut up during class. True stor...

Why Breathalyzers Somehow Encourage Drinking and Driving
This idea came into mind yesterday as I was reading the basic description of a new phone-powered breathalyzer. While the generic idea seems like a nice one, these gadgets come with a downside, a rather dangerous side-effect. Since this may very well be only a false problem, I thought to share my ideas with you and di... Continue Reading →
Lancia Needs to Copy Skoda and Stop Selling Chryslers
The last time I was in Italy was in 2008. I went on a summer vacation with the sole purpose of wearing flip-flops and getting a tan, but their cars still got me excited, more than the belle ragazze. I still remember seeing the Fiat Bravo for the first time at a gas station, sitting there looking all sexy with a black... Continue Reading →
Hybrid Supercars, Now a Billion Dollar Industry
A little city in middle of Europe, with a population of only 200,000 people, just played host to the biggest parade of amazing toys man has ever created. The price, beauty and power of these four-wheeled creatures is only exceeded by the money auto companies are going to make. The floor of the Geneva Motor Show was f... Continue Reading →
2013 BMW R1200GS, the Incomplete Homework?
This is not a hate-editorial, despite the fact that some of our readers will rather see it this way. It's just about the real facts: BMW has obviously not tested the new R1200GS as thoroughly as they should have... at least that's what decent folks get from all the "recalls" of late. Some accus...

Why The World Needs Smaller V12s
Have you ever wondered what the true effect of tree-hugging is? We’ve been told that cars are responsible for the hole in ozone layer, which in turn is killing the baby whales, baby penguins and baby babies. To save them, our cars are running on fewer cylinders every year, and I believe it won’t belon... Continue Reading →
