This would really make EVs take off and effectively replace ICE cars. It’s unknown when consumers would actually be able to buy them yet.

The Redesigned 2027 Hyundai Tuscon

Hyundai Korea released the Tuscon with their new "Art of Steel" design language. The leaks/spy shots were very close to the final design. Looks like the new CN8 Avante/Elantra which is very polarizing. I'm digging the new style.

For us North Americans, we get to wait till 2028 to see this thing rolling down the streets!

BMW M3 Touring vs Audi RS 5 Avant | HOT LAPS Hockenheimring GP

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78f81dkUTxc Sport Auto tested the new RS 5 Avant against the M3 Touring on the Hockenheim GP race track.

Both cars were equipped with R compound tires (Audi ran P Zero Trofeo R and BMW Pilot Sport Cup 2). In the end the Audi's 109 extra horsepower and extra boost from the electric motors were not enough to beat the M3 Touring which was a whopping 3,7 seconds faster but also weighs 505kg less. (2.370kg vs. 1.865kg)

For such a short track 3,7 seconds is a lot.
