Karma Automotive has unveiled the Gyesera sedan — an all-electric four-door model that expands the California-based automaker's lineup, just in time for the company's 10th-anniversary celebration. It follows the 1,000-hp Kaveya super coupe GT, which debuted in Las Vegas last year.
We can only imagine what it must be like to be filthy rich. Thanks to Rolls-Royce and its latest coachbuilt creation—the Arcadia Droptail—our imagination doesn't have to work too hard. That's because the new magnificent two-seat roadster is proof that millions of dollars might not be able to buy happiness, but it can definitely buy a rolling sculpture unlike no other. Commissioned by Rolls's Coachbuild division as the third iteration of the limited-production Droptail, the Arcadia was designed specifically for an unnamed customer. The process is said to have took four years, with the client having total control of the curation process. The custom convertible's name itself comes from Greek mythology, and it refers to a place known as «Heaven on Earth.» Built
McLaren makes some of the greatest supercars in the world, no doubt about that. And it has plans for the future. Last week it introduced the 750S supercar, and our time behind the wheel was most satisfying. But there’s a lot more going on at the company.

While the VinFast is yet to confirm it, the filing of the design patent indicates that the VF 3 could be under consideration for our market.
Charles Leclerc and Ferrari delivered another strong performance Friday, concluding the final day of pre-season Formula 1 testing at the top of the board. The Monegasque driver threw down a 1:30.322, roughly 0.3 seconds faster than Sergio Perez's fastest lap on Thursday, despite dealing with the drain cover fiasco.
LAS VEGAS – The Valley of Fire just got several degrees hotter. The McLaren 750S Spider convertible I’m driving is spearing through the Nevada valley’s blushing outcrops of red Aztec sandstone, generating a pace so lurid that it might just rearrange the rocks in its fearsome path. The lonely Mojave Desert seems as good a place as any to engage launch control, hold tight to the Spider’s idyllically formed steering wheel, and experience what 740 horsepower feels like. A class-leading dry weight of 2,815 pounds gives the Coupe version the best power-to-weight ratio of any series-production McLaren yet, with the Spider just a bit below it on the pecking order with only about 100 pounds added.
VinFast, an electric carmaker from Vietnam, unveiled its supermini electric SUV, the VF3, at the 2024 Consumer Electronics Show, Las Vegas. The automaker has now homologated this model in India.
