Last week, we discussed some of the best performance bargains coming in the BMW world in 2026. Around halfway through writing that, I discovered BMW F90 M5 prices hovering at and below $40,000. Some cars are listed for significantly less than that, too. Anyway, with 600 horsepower or more on tap and devilishly good driving dynamics for a car its size — and still a lot of depreciation to go — the F90 M5 shows promise as being one of most ridiculous cars you can buy for around $40,000.Recap: BMW F90 M5 at a GlanceThe BMW F90 M5 represents a…

We got an early glimpse of Red Bull’s first road-going hypercar back in July of 2024. Today, though, the company has locked in the final design of its RB17 hypercar before it goes on sale this year—and it looks wicked. The RB17 was born from Red Bull’s Formula One know-how, which means it was designed to do one thing: go absurdly fast. The new look reflects that. Compared to the original prototype, the production RB17 looks sharper, tighter, and dare we say, even faster. The RB17’s Final Look Red Bull RB17 Final Design Photo by: Red Bull The front end…

Today marks a historic turning point in automotive history. As of January 1, 2026, the ALPINA brand has officially transferred to BMW Group ownership, ending 61 years of independent operation by the Bovensiepen family. What began in 1965 as a small tuning house in Buchloe, Germany—initially focused on carburetors and cylinder heads—evolved into one of the world’s most respected automotive manufacturers, recognized by the German Federal Motor Transport Authority as a standalone carmaker since 1983.BMW acquired ALPINA in March 2022, but honored a multi-year transition agreement that allowed the brand to operate independently through the end of 2025.

A video shows a brief silhouette of a new Mitsubishi SUV. The company is expected to relaunch the Pajero.   The SUV could be sold in the United States as the Montero.   There’s plenty of evidence that Mitsubishi is preparing to launch a new SUV. In October, the automaker unveiled the Elevance Concept, which we suspected previews a new Pajero that ended production in 2021. Spy photographers captured a boxy prototype in July, and this week, an official video shows a brief silhouette of a new high-riding model.   The clip, posted to the Mitsubishi Motors TV YouTube channel,…

Car anniversaries can feel forced, but this one has had one of the largest impacts on BMW’s 100 years history. On April 26, 2001, the first new MINI came off the line at Plant Oxford, kicking off series production for what became the first-generation modern MINI. That date matters because it’s when MINI stopped being what many considered a retro-cool icon, but rather a mass-produced car for the globe. It also anchored in BMW Group’s UK manufacturing footprint in a way that still defines the brand today.The Takeover From RoverBMW’s late-1990s move on MINI looked like a long shot. Back…
