Sub-500-lb camper pod builds rep as world's cutest (cheap) teardrop

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.

Everything about the forthcoming Tesla Roadster is utterly delusional

When it was first revealed all the way back in 2017, the Tesla Roadster 2.0 prototype seemed completely ridiculous.

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.

Towable A-frame is about as small and simple as a tiny house gets

Personally, if I was living in a tiny house, I'd want to get the largest and most luxurious model I could afford, but a lot of people neither want nor need all that extra space. This A-frame on wheels is for such people. With a length of just 4.8 m (15 ft) and consisting of one room, it's about as small and simple as they come.

Has an Indian disruptor just built the world’s lightest off-road helmet?

There are a few things in motorcycling that make me immediately suspicious. A 200-hp Chinese V4? Sounds about right. A Honda Dax dressed as a hot rod chopper? I'll raise an eyebrow. But a rather unheard-of helmet manufacturer suddenly announcing that it has built the world's lightest off-road helmet? Now you've got my attention.

Jensen Interceptor GTX is Britain's emphatic reply to the Ford Mustang

For years, the US has had the Mustang. Britain, meanwhile, has had rather more trouble keeping its great sports-car names alive. It took time, but Britain has finally looked across the Atlantic, seen what Ford has done with the Mustang, and apparently decided: yeah, we can do that too. Only with a little more leather, a little more hand-beaten aluminum, and considerably more British eccentricity.
