This incredible car utilized one of the most secretive programs in Chevy history to become a drag strip beast!

If you were around in the 1960s, then you’ll understand exactly what this car meant for the American automotive racing world. However, if you happen to be part of the younger generation, try to put yourself in the shoes of your elders. You show up to the track in your brand new ’67 Chevy Camaro SS with a roaring V8 knowing that you could wipe the floor with any other vehicle on the road. You pull up to the starting position when you look over only to see what looks like your exact same car. “Our cars are matched, this is all about skill, and I got this!” you say to yourself.

Talk of an Apple Car is ‘catalyzing a shift in investor narrative back toward the attractiveness of the platform,’ analyst says

A hypothetical Apple Inc.-designed car may be years away, but it could already be helping the company’s stock, in the view of one analyst.

“We see the prospects of Apple Car–representing the clearest path to doubling Apple’s revenue and market cap–catalyzing a shift in investor narrative back toward the attractiveness of the platform (1 billion loyal customers) and long-term sustainable growth,” wrote Morgan Stanley’s Katy Huberty in a Friday note to clients.

Simply put, “investors should pay attention to Apple Car,” Huberty wrote.

Her comments come after a Bloomberg News article Thursday highlighted a series of developments around the consumer electronics company’s plans for an electric vehicle. Apple reportedly has sped up its launch targets as it now aims to introduce a car in four years.

It’s looking to join your psychedelic collection.

The media have virtually immortalized the Volkswagen Bus via movies and TV shows such as “The Bus” and “Cars.” This star power has led to an entire generation of people who dream of owning one of these classic busses for themselves one day, as it perfectly epitomizes the “hippie” aesthetic. In addition, the highly open interior created a trend known as “Van-Life,” where teens would live a very nomadic lifestyle, living anywhere they choose. Others still used the Bus for camping or weekend trips with their family or friends. This vehicle, in particular, is a perfect example of that focus on freedom and independence.

No-deal Brexit and Covid threaten ‘double whammy’ for car industry

By Jaime E. Love 2 years ago

UK and European carmakers have warned a no-deal Brexit could put a £100bn dent in the region’s car industry in the next five years, adding to heavy losses already caused by Covid-19.

A letter signed by 23 trade groups across Europe urges the government to make a deal rather than default to World Trade Organization (WTO) rules.

It says without one, there will be a “catastrophic” rise in tariffs.

A government spokesperson said it was “working hard” to reach an agreement.

The industry has already taken a £90bn hit this year because of Covid-19, the SMMT added.

The UK left the European Union on 31 January, but will enjoy tariff-free trade with the bloc until the end of the year as part of the transition period.
