Fisker Ocean Is Seeing Some Massive Discounts

As rumors of a possible bankruptcy continue to swirl around Fisker, the EV startup is offering deep, deep discounts on its Ocean model, which paints a picture of financial instability. Just how big are the discounts? The electric SUV is seeing price cuts of as much as $24,000, bringing the starting price of the range-topping Ocean Extreme model down from $63,937 to $39,937. Other trim levels are seeing more modest price cuts, but all the discounts are firmly in five-figure territory. The mid-range Ultra model now starts at $37,437, having dropped by $18,000.

2024 Mercedes E-Class: In a World of SUVs, Mercedes Makes a Sedan

You can’t drive down the road anywhere in America without seeing SUVs, crossovers, and other things that trace their heritage back to off-roaders only about as much as we trace our genetic makeup back to monkeys. Into this world, while every other automaker, darn near, has given over entirely to the almighty SUV and crossover, Mercedes, the company that invented the automobile, offers a sedan. Several sedans. And a bunch of coupes, convertibles, roadsters, and wagons, too. We should all kneel down, or at least genuflect in reflective contemplation if not an outright Danke Schoen to Mercedes for just giving us options that are not crossover utility

Ford Explorer EV Is on Sale, but Not over Here - autoweek.com - Usa - Britain - county Martin

Ford Explorer EV Is on Sale, but Not over Here

The Ford Explorer EV is finally on the way, though it's not a model you'll find on Ford's website in the US. The electric SUV is a model built for Europe using Volkswagen's MEB platform, and it has been in the works for some time. But it's not a badge-engineered Volkswagen ID.4. And it's not exactly cheap. In teaming up with Wolfsburg on this project, Ford Europe has opted for a compact footprint and an exterior design that's quite distinct from the Mustang Mach-E. And it's strictly a five-seater, featuring short overhangs suited to European cities. In single-motor form, the Explorer has a 282-hp motor out back drawing power from a 77-kWh battery—s

Is the 2025 Polestar 4 Competitively Priced? - autoweek.com - Usa - Sweden

Is the 2025 Polestar 4 Competitively Priced?

From its lack of a true rear window to the sporty, obtuse body shape, the Polestar 4 has left a wake since its launch last spring. Now, despite Polestar's internal affairs making news lately, the Swedish brand is accelerating toward a broader, fully electric lineup. No longer will its stylish Polestar 2 be the brand's only EV. Following the impending spring delivery of the Polestar 3 crossover, the brand has said its compact performance Polestar 4 crossover will be available stateside by this fall. Powered by a 102-kWh battery and a variable configuration of permanent-magnet, synchronous electric motors, Polestar's third all-electric offering is set to be a stronger contender on price and performance. Depending on your electric

2025 Hyundai Tucson Gets a Facelift in New York

The New York International Auto Show is in full swing, and Hyundai is adding to the mix with a refreshed Tucson. For 2025, Hyundai is lightly updating the exterior, but adding extra consumer-facing tech to the cabin by way of massive screens. Hyundai is also moving the Tucson’s shifter to the column on certain models. The powertrains are basically the same as the ’24 models, but let’s get you up to speed. The base-model 2.5-liter I4 carries over and sends 187 hp and 178 lb-ft of torque through an eight-speed automatic transmission. Hybrid Tucson models sport a 1.6-liter turbocharged four under the hood that works with an electric motor to make a combined 231 hp. The plug-in hybrid model also uses a 1.6-liter turbocharged mill but cranks up

2025 Kia K4 Is Bigger Than the Forte but Loses the Stick

At the 2024 New York International Auto Show, Kia finally revealed all of the specs about the upcoming Forte replacement. The ’25 K4 will be larger than the Forte, but the company will carry over the Forte’s powertrains. Kia won’t be rolling the K4 out with the six-speed manual, but Kia Is reviving the hatchback version of its compact machine. Dimensionally, the K4 is 185.4-inches long and 72.8-inches wide. For those curious, that’s larger than the current Forte in both directions, by 2.7 inches in length and 1.9 in width. Taking advantage of this extra length, Kia stretched the wheelbase to 107.1-inches, which is 0.8-inches longer than the outgoing Forte. Powering the K4 is still either a 2.0-liter I4 or a turbocharged 1.6-liter I

Tesla Will Let Buyers Try Its Pricey FSD System—for Free

Tesla CEO Elon Musk revealed that the EV maker would offer the company's Full Self-Driving driver-assistance system to new buyers as a free trial for a month, just weeks after another major software update to the system. Additionally, the EV maker will give new Tesla buyers a demonstration of the software upon delivery of every new Tesla—something it hasn't done in the past.
