2026 Kimera Automobili K39
The Kimera Automobili K39 is the car that moves Kimera beyond the restomod label. After building its name with the Lancia 037-inspired EVO37 and EVO38, Kimera used the K39 to step into full hypercar territory. The car debuted at Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este on the shores of Lake Como, with both a road-going Stradale version and a more extreme Pikes Peak configuration. Its shape still pulls from Lancia racing history, especially Group 5 and endurance-era cars, but the K39


2026 BMW Vision Alpina Concept
The 2026 Vision BMW ALPINA is BMW’s first major Alpina concept since the brand became part of BMW Group. Revealed at the 2026 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este, it previews what Alpina will mean under BMW ownership. It is a large four-seat coupe, measuring 5,200 mm long, with a long roofline, shark-nose front end, wide stance, and classic Alpina details. BMW says the concept is built around three core Alpina values: speed, comfort, and sophistication. The concept uses a V8 pow


2027 Rezvani Fortress Concept Truck

The standard truck uses a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 with about 450 hp, similar to the F-150 Raptor. Buyers can upgrade to a 5.2-liter supercharged V8, based on the Raptor R


2026 Bugatti W16 Mistral Le Retour du Jeune Prince
The Bugatti W16 Mistral “Le Retour du Jeune Prince” is a one-off Sur Mesure commission based on the 99-unit W16 Mistral roadster. Its name translates to “The Return of the Young Prince,” and the car was designed around the owner’s own literary work inspired by The Little Prince. Bugatti built the car around a warm copper and bronze colorway meant to suggest earth, moonlight, and stars. The body features hand-applied silver star details, a gold-outlined Bugatti Macaron on the


2026 GMC HUMMER X Concept Truck & SUV
2026 GMC HUMMER X SUV Concept 2026 GMC HUMMER X Truck Concept The GMC HUMMER EV is huge. That has always been part of its identity, but size can also be a problem. The 2026 GMC HUMMER X Concept shows what the Hummer name could look like if GM made it smaller, more modular, and more focused on real off-road use. Revealed alongside GM’s new Advanced Design Pasadena studio, the HUMMER X Concept comes in two forms: an SUV and a pickup. Both are electric, both are smaller than tod


2026 AC Cobra GT Coupe
The AC Cobra has always been known as a raw, open-top sports car. The new AC Cobra GT Coupe changes that formula without throwing away what made the car famous. Revealed in production form, the 2026 AC Cobra GT Coupe is the first production Cobra coupe from AC Cars. It keeps the long hood, wide stance, V8 power, and muscular shape people expect from a Cobra, but adds a fixed roof, carbon-fiber bodywork, modern chassis engineering, and a more usable grand touring cabin. It is


2027 Ferrari Luce: Everything We Know About Ferrari’s First Electric Car
Ferrari’s First EV Is Not What Anyone Expected Ferrari could have played it safe. The company could have built an electric version of a familiar two-seat supercar, made it low, wide, loud-looking, and called it the future. Instead, Ferrari revealed the 2027 Ferrari Luce: a fully electric, four-door, five-seat grand tourer with a design shaped by Jony Ive and Marc Newson’s LoveFrom studio. It is Ferrari’s first production EV, its first five-seater, and only its second four-doo


2026 Bertone Runabout

The result is a high-performance restomod that maintains the proportions and character of the original whil


2026 Freelander Concept 97
The 2026 Freelander Concept 97 marks a strategic reset for the Freelander nameplate, reintroducing it as a modern electrified SUV developed through the joint venture between Jaguar Land Rover and Chery. Unveiled as a concept with strong production intent, the model takes direct inspiration from the original Freelander’s 1997 debut while adapting its identity for today’s Chinese market. Notably, the vehicle carries no Land Rover badging, instead positioning Freelander as a sta


2026 Lynk & Co 'Time to Shine' GT Concept
The 2026 Lynk & Co Time to Shine GT Concept marks a clear shift in direction for the Chinese brand, introducing its first dedicated grand touring concept at the Beijing Auto Show.

2026 Hyundai Boulder Concept
The Rugged SUV That Shows Where Hyundai Is Going Next Hyundai has built plenty of practical SUVs, but the Boulder Concept is something different. Revealed at the 2026 New York International Auto Show, the Boulder is a tough, body-on-frame SUV concept that shows Hyundai is preparing to enter a space it has mostly avoided until now: serious off-road trucks and utility vehicles. This is not another soft crossover with a rugged trim package. It is a preview of Hyundai’s first ful


2026 Rolls-Royce Project Nightingale Concept
The Electric Coachbuilt Convertible Built for the Few Rolls-Royce has never been a brand built around mass appeal, but Project Nightingale takes that idea even further.

It is the first car in Rolls-Royce’s new Coachbuild Collection, a limited series of highly exclusive motor cars created for clients who want something more personal, more theatrical, and far rarer tha


2026 Smart Concept #2
Smart has spent the last few years trying to grow beyond the tiny city cars that made the brand famous, but the Concept #2 suggests the company understands where its identity really came from. Unveiled as a small two-seat electric concept, the Smart #2 previews a production model that will serve as a direct successor to the third-generation Smart Fortwo, which went out of production two years ago. For a brand now jointly run by Mercedes-Benz and Geely, this is more than just

1969 Dogo SS-2000 Prototype: Argentina’s Forgotten Gullwing Supercar
1969 Dogo SS-2000 Prototype The 1969 Dogo SS-2000 Prototype is one of the rarest and most overlooked concept sports cars ever built in South America. Created by Argentine racing driver and engineer Clemar Bucci, the Dogo combined gullwing doors, lightweight fiberglass construction, Porsche engineering influence, and late-1960s supercar styling into a one-off prototype that looked decades ahead of Argentina’s automotive industry. And unlike many forgotten concept cars of the e


15 of the Craziest Headlight Designs in Automotive History
Headlights are usually treated as simple, practical parts of a car. They help you see. They help other drivers see you. That is supposed to be the whole job. But throughout automotive history, designers have used headlights for much more than visibility. Some were hidden inside fenders. Some turned with the steering wheel. Some popped up, rotated sideways, sat under glass, opened like eyelids, or looked more like sci-fi movie props than actual car parts. This list looks at 15


Meet The World’s First Minivan: 1932 Stout Scarab Prototype
Meet The World’s First Minivan 1932 Stout Scarab Prototype Meet The World’s First Minivan: 1932 Stout Scarab Prototype When people think about the first minivan, they usually picture the Plymouth Voyager or the Renault Espace from the 1980s. But the basic formula for the modern minivan already existed more than fifty years earlier. It was called the Stout Scarab. Designed by William Bushnell Stout and completed in 1932, the Scarab prototype completely rethought how cars were

The Amphibious Idea That Isuzu Capsized 1991 Isuzu Nagisa Concept By the early 1990s, Japanese automakers were building some of the strangest concept cars the industry had ever seen.

It wasn’t simply styled to look aquatic—it was fully amphibious, designed to operate both on land and in water. And somehow, Isuzu treated t


The Student-Built Alfa That Deserved More: 2006 Alfa Romeo Diva Concept
The Student-Built Alfa That Deserved More 2006 Alfa Romeo Diva Concept When most people think about modern mid-engine Alfa Romeo sports cars, they think of the Alfa Romeo 4C.

Unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show, the Alfa Romeo Diva was developed in collaboration with the Espera Sbarro School. Unlike many student-built concept ca


The Prototype That Saved Aston Martin: 1939 Aston Martin Atom
The Prototype That Saved Aston Martin 1939 Aston Martin Atom In 1939, Aston Martin was struggling to survive. The company was small, financially unstable, and entering one of the worst possible moments to be building sports cars. Europe was on the edge of war, production was slowing, and Aston Martin still lacked a clear technical identity compared to larger manufacturers. Then came the Atom. Designed by engineer Claude Hill, the Aston Martin Atom wasn’t just another pre-war
