In Pontevedra, the usual soundtrack of a Spanish city has been replaced by the tweeting of birds and the chatter of humans

Elon Musk has revealed that Tesla customers will have access to a built-in dashcam very, very soon.

The city's infamous roads and drivers have created some "unique" challenges for autonomous vehicles. But that's sort of the point.

California Gov. Jerry Brown accused President Donald Trump Monday of hurting American auto manufacturers by advocating for fewer restrictions on mass polluters in the US. Brown indicated that the Trump administration's effort to boost US coal producers and weaken fuel-economy standards will ultimately help countries like China, where businesses are going all-in on electric vehicles and other clean-energy products. Trump is "building the Chinese auto industry" while destroying America's own, Brown said in an interview with the Los Angeles Times.

Mercedes-Benz, the world’s largest maker of luxury cars, is rolling out its first in a series of battery-powered models, adding to a growing array of high-end brands targeting Tesla Inc.

Volvo's latest autonomous concept car rethinks the role of the vehicle in our lives.

Electric and other ultra-low emission cars, vans and taxis could be given special green number plates to boost awareness and increase the use of environmentally “clean” driving. Green plates are already used in Norway, Canada and China on green vehicles including electric and hydrogen cars, making them both distinct and visible to other road others.

Mazda pledged that its next generation of petrol-engine vehicles will be cleaner than electric cars due to the use of efficiency-boosting compression ignition technology - and it'll boost that promise in 2021, when a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) drivetrain will join the range.

The death of a woman hit by a self-driving car highlights an unfolding technological crisis, as code piled on code creates ‘a universe no one fully understands’

The 1965 Pontiac GTO Chief Camino is a one-off vehicle that should almost certainly have been built and offered for sale by Pontiac in the mid-1960s. It never was, but this is probably due to the fact that there’s no indication Pontiac even considered building it. The car you see here wasn’t built by them, it was built as a prototype by a man named Ron in his garage over a period of 10 years – using an original Pontiac GTO as the starting point.

A jury has awarded more than $242 million to a Dallas-area family after finding that manufacturer defects in their Lexus ES 300 caused their...

Since a self-driving Uber killed a pedestrian in March, the company’s executives have been divided over the future of its autonomous vehicle efforts.

Jaguar has announced it will make a series of all-electric Jaguar E-Type sports cars. This isn't an all-new E-type. It's the same classic sports car from the 1960s with its long hood, curved roof and chrome bumpers, but with its engine and transmission removed and replaced by a battery pack and an electric motor.

You don’t have to own a Tesla to drive a Tesla—or, at least, a car that runs like one. Elon Musk’s electric car company is notoriously grumpy about Tesla owners working on their own cars, but that hasn’t stopped enthusiastic mechanics from fixing up the vehicles and even lifting the electric motors out of Teslas and putting them in the chassis of other, formerly gas guzzling cars.

Ford just announced that it’s abandoning plans to sell the Focus Active — which the company makes in China — in the United States because of tariffs imposed by the Trump administration. The car was supposed to be one of two models that Ford planned to sell in the US going forward as it shifts its lineup to be almost exclusively SUVs and trucks. Now, the only car Ford will sell in the US is the Mustang.

Nissan is recalling roughly 166,000 vehicles due to an ignition switch issue that could cause the vehicle’s engine to shut off while driving. The automaker said 153,000 of the recalled units are in the United States, with another 13,000 in Canada.

Tom and Gail Wise disagreed about whether a broken-down car should be stored in a family garage for 27 years or sold for junk. He insisted they keep it because, he promised, one day he would find the time to fix the vehicle himself. It was her skylight blue convertible Ford Mustang, purchased at age 22 in 1964, that their family of six drove for 15 years.

A V8-engined Cygnet aside, Aston Martin clearly never jokes about its work, because this is quite serious indeed. The storied British carmaker has announced a run of 25 brand-new DB5s, modelled after one of the world’s most famous movie cars.

What happens when your personal information gets sucked into an endless marketing vortex?

Tesla CEO Elon Musk needs to make more cars. The company has fallen short of Model 3 production goals since it started making the mass-market car last summer, promising 5,000 cars per week by the end of 2017 but only delivering 2,425 a week over the last three months of the year. In an effort to drastically ramp up production, Tesla employees are now tinkering with the core designs of the Model 3 car and the production process, detailed by a New York Times report (paywall), something that experts say is unprecedented.

The firm says tests at Japanese factories had "deviated from the prescribed testing environment".

Even though the next-generation GT-R sounds like it's still a ways away, one Nissan exec is already talking up the R36's supposed capabilities. Speaking to Autocar at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, Nissan's Senior Vice President of Global Design, Alfonso Albaisa, says the company's upcoming Godzilla replacement will be nothing short of a game-changer, going as far as saying it must be "the fastest super sports car in the world." Big claims for a car that hasn't even found a powertrain style, apparently.

One flying car seems absurd; Larry Page has three.

The next-generation Porsche 911 has been hiding in plain sight for a while now. We've seen plenty of photos of camouflaged prototypes and even some decent photos of the rear of a completely uncovered 911 Carrera or Carrera S. Today, we have a new batch of spy photos of the new 992-generation 911, and the car is nearly completely uncovered. Despite some halfhearted attempts to cover the badges, there's no mistaking a 911 for anything other than a 911.

Musk tweets about a mini electric car. Twitter goes wild.

Mazda Motor Corp, Suzuki Motor Corp and Yamaha Motor Co conducted improper fuel economy and emissions tests on their vehicles, Japan’s transport ministry said on Thursday.

Its now official, the 2019 Porsche Taycan will get a 600hp electric motor with 500km range.

Remember Face Swap? Y’know, the 2016 app that had every man, woman and dog in the land swapping faces for Whatsapp group chat lols? Well, this is what happens when cars get in on the act.Recently, those crazy cats at Liberty Walk took a tiny Daihatsu Copen and, with the magic of determination and an angle grinder, managed to graft a squished Nissan GT-R’s face and backside onto it.

Jokes about BMW drivers being, on average, somewhat less than courteous are fairly common. Now scientific research supports the unwritten and broadly circulated theory that people in BMWs are lacking in road manners.

Some of the most interesting cars never leave the concept phase. Porsche's latest EV is one of those. Porsche unveiled the Cayman E-volution concept at the 2017 Electric Vehicle Symposium. It packs an all-electric drivetrain that sends the car to 62 mph in just 3.3 seconds, more than a second quicker than the current 718 Cayman S. Its battery only lasts about 125 miles between charges, but that's fine, because it's never going into series production.

A hybrid recycling plant in California, has built an electric vehicle capable of traveling 1,600 kilometers (994 miles) on a single battery charge. This was enough to break the previous record of 1,298 kilometers (806 miles), which was set in Japan in 2013. The car, known as The Phoenix, is a modified BMW built from 90 percent recycled parts. It cost just $13,000 to construct, less than half the price of the cheapest Tesla.

What happens when MIT gets in the car game.

‘It only becomes a commercial business when you can remove the vehicle operator from the equation,’ says ride-hailing firm battling Lyft and Waymo.

Rising rents are leading Americans to live in cars and other vehicles

California is moving closer to charging drivers for every mile they drive. The state says it needs more money for road repairs, and the gas tax just isn’t bringing in enough revenue. The state recently road-tested a mileage monitoring plan. The California Road Charge Pilot Program is billed as a way for the state to move from its longstanding pump tax to a system where drivers pay based on their mileage.
