For many kids, little and no-so-little, growing up since the 1970s often netted countless tiny toy cars. Introduced in the 1950s, Matchbox started producing die-cast small-scale replica vehicles in the UK, then started similar production in the US. In 1968, Hot Wheels started producing die-cast vehicles of a slightly different type, more fanciful. Hot Wheels […]
Like steel wheels, aluminum wheels are painted to protect them from corrosion.

Tesla Motors and CEO Elon Musk have done what many entrepreneurs have only dreamed of, bringing something completely new to the automotive market and making a success of it.

Since the 2008 financial crisis, US car sales have been making a comeback, topping 17 million light vehicles since 2015, for the first time since 2001. Car sales started dipping toward 17 million in 2017, though, and forecasts predict further slowing of the automotive market, perhaps 16.8 million for 2018. September 2018 marks the end […]

Following Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May on social media and the like has revealed some tantalizing ideas of what we might expect to see as Season 3 starts later this year.

Let’s face it: people make mistakes, and driver error accounts for most crashes. Fortunately, crash testing by organizations like the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) helps identify which vehicles might help you walk away from a driver error.
