As fantastic as Infiniti’s new QX30 luxury compact may be, what we’re really itching to examine is the all-new Q60 Coupe. While it will still be a short while before we can share our firsthand impressions, we now have pricing information for the Japanese automaker’s most exciting model yet.

Set to arrive in U.S. showrooms starting in September, the Q60 will feature two engine options: a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder making 208 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, and a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 making 300hp and an unknown torque figure. For those wishing the Q60 would push the performance envelope a bit, fret not, because there’s a Red Sport 400 model on the way with, presumably, 400hp.

The entry-level Q60 2.0t will start at $39,855 (including destination) and will be a rear-wheel drive platform. All-wheel drive is available for an additional $2,000. Standard features include 19.0-inch wheels, LED headlights, 8-way adjustable sport seats, Bluetooth, and a rearview monitor. Should you desire more luxury amenities, the $2,350 Premium package can be tacked onto the RWD or AWD model, and includes a power moonroof, Bose 13-speaker audio system, and a few other creature comforts.

If 208hp doesn’t cut it, the twin-turbocharged V6 will cost an additional $3,000 over the cost of the 2.0t Premium, totaling $45,205 but comes standard with the Premium package options. The present range-topping 3.0t Premium AWD Q60 will retail for $47,205. Each of these prices includes a $905 destination fee.

In addition to announcing the Q60’s pricing, Infiniti is introducing a Reservation Program on its Infiniti USA site. Those who sign up to reserve one of the Q60 Coupes will receive their choice of gifts, including a GoPro Hero 4, Tumi luggage, or a Bose audio system. Shoppers interested in the Q60 have probably longed for the sports car since its debut, and likely don’t need incentives, but I doubt they’ll argue with a sweetened pot.

Tesla’s fix for faulty Cybertruck pedal is simpler than you might think

Tesla Cybertruck

Less than five months after handing over the first Cybertrucks to customers, Tesla has had to recall the electric pickup to fix an issue with the accelerator.

In a notice issued on Friday, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said that the recall impacts Cybertruck vehicles manufactured from November 13, 2023, to April 4, 2024. This suggests that all -- or almost all -- of the 3,878 Cybertrucks being recalled are those that have been manufactured to date.

Ford Mustang Mach-E 2024 vs. Mach-E 2023: What’s new in Ford’s electric Mustang?

Blue Ford Mustang Mach-E on a rooftop

The Ford Mustang Mach-E is easily one of the best EVs for the price, offering a solid range, sleek design, and pretty good tech on the inside. In recent years, it has gotten even cheaper -- thanks in large part to a price war between it and the Tesla Model 3. And, the company just took the wraps off of the latest and greatest version of the Mach-E, labeled as the 2024 model.

The 2024 Mustang Mach-E is notably different from the 2023 iteration in some meaningful ways. So much so that we decided to take a look at the two head-to-head -- to see if it was better to pay for the 2024 model or save some cash on any remaining 2023 stock.
Design
The Mustang Mach-E looks relatively unique -- in a good way. And thankfully, Ford has largely kept the overall design the same for the 2024 model, at least when it comes to the more consumer-focused models. The car retains the slatted taillights and crossover size. It also offers a large selection of colors, including the very blue Grabber Blue Metallic, as well as Rapid Red Metallic. It's a good selection of colors, and there should be an option for most buyers.

Tesla to begin production on new, more affordable models

Tesla Model 3

With competition increasing from Chinese and other automakers, Tesla boss Elon Musk revealed on Tuesday that his company is planning to begin production of new, more affordable models in “early 2025, if not late this year.” Notably, that's earlier than the previously stated date of late 2025, though whether Musk actually succeeds in meeting the earlier production time frame is another question entirely.

The news came as Tesla released its latest quarterly figures. Revenue for the electric vehicle maker came in at $21.3 billion, down from the $23.3 billion it reported for the same three-month period a year earlier and also down from the $25.2 billion reported in the previous quarter. Profit reached $1.1 billion, marking a 55% fall compared to the same period a year ago.
