Underwater drones certainly are handy for inspecting things like boat hulls and fish farm nets – or simply for exploring – but they can often be relatively large, complex devices that cost a few thousand bucks. Such is certainly not the case with the simple li'l BentiX, however.

We all know how crucial oral hygiene is for our overall health. The rules are very straightforward: brush twice a day, for at least two minutes, and don’t skip flossing. Sounds simple enough, but often those two minutes can feel like an eternity. Flossing after? That’s where many of us give up, even though it can boomerang back in the form of expensive dental bills.

In Norse mythology, Sköll is the name of a giant wolf that chases the sun across the sky. I’m not sure if that’s what Stark Future was going for with the Varg SM Sköll, but well, that’s what the limited-edition electric supermoto is named. But more important than the name and its exclusivity is what Stark has done with the bike.

The Kia PV5 has already set itself apart from the pack in terms of smart, capable, stylish camper vans and is proving to be the first really desirable camper base van of the electric era.

4K triple-laser projectors are all the rage right now, and there's a legitimate reason as to why: regardless of the price point, in my experience, 4K triple-laser images are tack sharp.

It’s NFL season again. In the Minnesota Vikings’ first game of the season, quarterback Kyler Murray’s debut run made it just 11 plays before a violent shoulder to the right side of his helmet sent him to the turf.

Ever since we first laid eyes on it in 2022, the Kleox trailer has been one of our all time favorite teardrops. It pairs a beautifully arched fiberglass body with an exceptionally simple design meant to keep price down well under €10,000. And with a starting weight of under 500 lb, it doesn't require much vehicle to tow it. Some might prefer something with a kitchen and more amenities, or perhaps a more ruggedized off-road-ready 'drop, but as far as simple, affordable camping goes, the Kleox lineup remains one of the most intriguing trailers in the western world. This year, we saw some new colors that make it look even better.

When it was first revealed all the way back in 2017, the Tesla Roadster 2.0 prototype seemed completely ridiculous. A four-seater convertible that could go from 0-60 mph (0-97 km/h) in 1.9 seconds with a 200-kWh battery in tow? The Tesla team must have chanced upon a particularly potent strain to smoke.

Some Ford names come with a fair amount of reputation to live up to. Mustang. GT40. F-150.

It’s one of Ford’s most cherished vehicles ever, so naturally, the company has now electrified it.

The humble shipping container is little more than a basic metal box, but designers and architects never seem to run out of ideas for what to do with it. The Luna Cottage is a particularly nicely done example, transforming a standard container into a cozy tiny house for two.
