You’d think a large and heavy SUV wouldn’t stand a chance in a drag race with a fully-fledged supercar… Weighing in at a whopping 5,363 pounds (2,432 kilograms), some might say the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk is not exactly drag race material. But this is not an ordinary SUV – if you’ll allow us to say 707…
The two couldn’t be more different. The Nissan GT-R and Dodge Challenger SRT Demon are bred from different philosophies. But the two are similar underneath the metallic veneer and high-octane horsepower. Both ride on ancient platforms – by automotive standards – released before the Great Recession. The GT-R debuted in 2007 while the Challenger debuted in early 2008 — months before…
The Bugatti Chiron Sport. Image: Bugatti In doing the unthinkable, Bugatti CEO Stephan Winkelmann told Australian website CarAdvice there won’t be another 16-cylinder Bugatti engine after this one. Preposterous! Who could imagine a future where people could, potentially, get close to counting the cylinders in their Bugatti on their… fingers? Well, a lot of people can. Whether it’s more due to tightening…
It’s almost fast enough to outrun the shriek from its supercharger. Friends, we should all rejoice. It’s 2018, and we live in a world where an 840-horsepower (626-kilowatt) Dodge Challenger Demon just isn’t fast enough for driving on the street. Enter Hennessey Performance, which has a new upgrade package for Demon owners that raises output to a full…
Aliens didn’t design it. Ultra rare, bespoke hypercars are not new. There’s always a handful of manufacturers toiling away on five or 10 examples of some super exotic that sell for millions of dollars.

You won’t be able to buy one with over 2,000 hp – but it can do it. Hennessey made a splash at Pebble Beach with its twin-turbocharged, monster of a 7.6-liter engine. Destined for duty in the Venom F5, the motor – which has been in manufacturing limbo for nearly five years – finally fulfilled Hennessey’s promise…
It sounds otherworldly. Ever since Koenigsegg boss Christian von Koenigsegg announced there’d be a replacement for the Agera RS, there’ve been tidbits of news and wild rumors about its successor. A teaser hasn’t stopped speculation from running wild, and it seems only Koenigsegg’s word can put to rest the most sensationalized gossip. However, without definitive answers from the…
You can thank the $350,000 luxury tax for that insane asking price. What would you pay to own the Nürburgring’s current production-car record holder? If you live in the U.S., Lamborghini asks $517,770 for its lap-smashing Aventador SVJ. But buyers in Australia won’t be so lucky; Lamborghini’s hot Aventador could cost more than seven figures when it’s all…
