Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Super Trofeo Stradale

By Amir Iliaifar Published September 19, 2011

While you might be forgetting the order of the obscenely long name of this latest Lamborghini Gallardo, you won’t be forgetting the experience once you get behind the wheel.

Thanks in large part to its weight reduction program, the techs over at Lamborghini have trimmed over 150 pounds off the already nimble LP 560-4. Additions include a carbon composite spoiler and hood, a 570 hp V10, all-wheel drive, and a robotized six-speed transmission with paddles shifters. All these improvements help send the Gallardo rocketing away from 0-62 in just 3.4 seconds and on its way to a top speed of just under 199 mph.

Thinking about getting one? Well, no price has been announced yet, but only 150 units will be available worldwide.

Volkswagen is bringing back the electric ID.Buzz bus with some cool upgrades for 2027

Until pricing and range are addressed, the upgrades feel like progress on everything except the things that actually held buyers back.

Volkswagen skipped the 2026 model year for the ID.Buzz entirely, a move that raised eyebrows and triggered the predictable “is the electric bus dead?” conversation. Well, it isn’t dead after all. The automaker has officially confirmed the 2027 ID.Buzz.

It’s arriving with the kind of updates that suggest Volkswagen actually listened to what early owners and reviewers were saying. The headline addition is the Tourer 4Motion, a new trim that turns the electric bus into a legitimate electric camper.

After acing range and charging, Chinese EV brands flaunt three-wheel driving on SUVs

BYD, Aito, and Li Auto are making active suspension the new battleground after range and charging

Chinese EV brands have spent years trying to win on range, charging speed, and screens. Now the fight is getting stranger, with premium SUVs showing off three-wheel driving as the next battleground.

According to Car News China, BYD’s Denza B8 Flash Charge Edition, Huawei-backed Aito M9, and Li Auto L9 are all being used to show how active suspension can lift a wheel while the vehicle keeps moving at low speed. The demos look theatrical, and the intended uses are practical, including tire changes, off-road recovery, and crossing uneven ground without getting stuck.

This Android Auto update is trying to change how you drive and use your car

I use Android Auto every day, and at this point, it feels like a quiet co-driver sitting on my dashboard. That’s exactly why this upcoming refresh from Google actually matters. It is not just a visual tweak; it is a proper overhaul of how Android Auto should feel inside a modern car. The biggest change is the design. Google is bringing its Material 3 Expressive design language from phones into cars. That means Android Auto is getting a more modern, more fluid look with expressive fonts, smoother animations, and even support for wallpapers. This should really make the entire interface feel less rigid and more alive while you are driving.

Widgets finally make Android Auto feel useful at a glance
