2024 Mini Cooper EV: The new MINI 3-door on snow and ice.

2024 Mini Cooper EV: The new MINI 3-door on snow and ice.

The fifth model generation also kicks off with the MINI 3-door. The new edition of the original is now undergoing its driving dynamics tests in the winter landscapes of Lapland.


The new MINI family is doing its warm-up laps - and that works best on ice and snow in the bitter cold of the Arctic Circle. The new MINI is currently undergoing its driving dynamics tests at the BMW Group's winter test centre in Arjeplog, Sweden. The new edition of the MINI is fully electric and is now completing a major chapter in its series development process with the winter testing in Sweden. The electric drivetrain, high-voltage battery, power electronics and charging technology of the prototypes are already demonstrating their high degree of maturity at extreme temperatures below freezing. Snow-covered roads and specially prepared areas on frozen lakes also serve as ideal test tracks on which the characteristics of the drive, steering and chassis can be very sensitively tested, refined and harmonised with each other.

Nissan GT-R Nismo: Time's Up For Godzilla

Nissan GT-R Nismo: Time's Up For Godzilla

We test out the updated sports car  Let's start under the hood. The legendary VR38DETT V-6 has been given two new turbochargers, lifted straight from Nissan's GT3 GT-R race car. These feature 10-vane turbines instead the 11-vane items used previously, and each vane is 0.3mm thinner, reducing the mass of each turbine by 14.5 percent. That means a 24 percent reduction in inertia, which, Tamura says, translates to a 20 percent improvement in engine response from zero to wide-open throttle.

2023 Ford Ranger Raptor Debuts With Twin-Turbo V6 Making 288 HP

It borrows the anti-lag tech from the GT supercar and Focus ST hot hatch.

Ford introduced the Ranger Raptor in Europe in August 2018 and now it's already replacing the brawny truck with the next-gen model. The rumors were true as the midsize pickup is indeed getting a larger 3.0-liter V6 EcoBoost. It's not making the full-fat 400 horsepower available in the Explorer ST, but it still packs plenty of punch for this segment.
