I paid $11,250 for the smallest car ever… is it legal?

Most people dream about powerful cars, but this strange little machine only makes about 13 horsepower and barely reaches 46 mph. After paying $11,250 for the tiny car, the plan was simple - attempt a 100-mile road trip and see what happens. What followed was a loud, cramped journey that turned heads everywhere it went, with people laughing and pointing at the unbelievably small vehicle. Despite its size, the little car pushed forward mile after mile until something inside finally gave up. By the end of the trip, it proved one thing: sometimes the smallest cars create the biggest adventures.

How this rare car was rebuilt 1,000 miles from home

Buying a rare Holden from Australia sounded like a great idea… until it arrived wrecked, moldy, and 1,000 miles away from home. This purple Holden with a roaring V8 had been sitting in a shipping container for months, hiding problems everywhere. A broken differential, mismatched tires, and mystery engine issues meant the odds were stacked against it. Somehow, after a frantic rebuild and a lot of questionable decisions, the car was ready for the ultimate test - a 1,000 mile drive across the country. The real surprise wasn’t just that the Holden survived… it was how much fun the journey became.

Electric superchargers - How Audi is eliminating turbo lag

The Audi SQ7 is powered by a 4.0L sequential turbo diesel V8. It's good for about 435 horsepower and 660 lb-ft of torque, which is great, but the fun doesn't stop there. In order to eliminate unresponsive nature of turbocharged engines, Audi has fitted the car with an electric supercharger, the first in a production vehicle. This means adding an onboard 48V system that can handle the additional power requirements of the electric powered compressor (EPC), which at full throttle can produce 7 kW of power, enough to spin the compressor wheel up to 70,000 RPM in just a quarter of a second. Full details of how this system works in the video, as well as animations. Engineering Explained is a participant in the Amazon Influencer Program.

Electric cars have a tire problem nobody talks about

Electric cars may feel smooth and futuristic, but they hide a costly problem many owners discover too late. The combination of heavy batteries, instant torque, and aggressive regenerative braking constantly stresses the tires in ways traditional cars never do. Even when cruising on the highway, EV tires are rarely just “free rolling” like those on gasoline vehicles. Over time, that constant load can wear them out far faster than most drivers expect. For many EV owners, the result is a surprising reality - replacing tires far more often than they ever planned.
