Sell your oven and buy a Lamborghini … your supercar can cook turkey, too

It turns out the flames from the back of a Lamborghini Aventador don’t just kill polar bears, they can also cook a turkey.

In this ill-advised video shows one of the most expensive ways to cook a turkey – and get carbon monoxide poisoning at the same time. In it, a cherubic Brit manages to get his hands on a Lamborghini Aventador LP-640 Oakley Design that has been tricked out to look like a reindeer … and uses to cook a turkey. As an aside, if Santa really is going to deliver presents to some two billion homes, he might actually need a team of Aventadors.

For all of you at home, get out your pens – or your copy and paste functions – because here is what you need to cook your turkey: one Lamborghini Aventador (Rudolph nose optional), one assistant, one turkey and one pitchfork. Cooking time: probably about all twelve days of Christmas.

Sure, the video ends in about two minutes with the host eating some lovely browned turkey. If that is the same one that he was trying to cook; then I am Tiger Woods.

Perhaps the most surprising thing about this video is that the incredibly expensive Lamborghini sounds terrible at idle. Seriously, the idle exhaust note sounds like my old Volvo 740 when the muffler was half rusted through and starting to fall off. I genuinely hope that sound is due to low-quality sound recording equipment. Otherwise, there are bound to be some very, very disappointed playboys out there.

This video might be ridiculous, but still it is an awesome way to cook a turkey.

Rivian R2 vs R1S: How will Rivian’s cheaper SUV compare?
The front three-quarter view of a 2022 Rivian against a rocky backdrop.

Rivian has finally unveiled the R2, its long-awaited attempt at a more affordable electric SUV. The new vehicle may not be available just yet, but fans of Rivian's design aesthetics and feature set are already looking forward to being able to order the new car. The R2 is targeted at being a more affordable take on the electric SUV and will sit alongside the flagship-tier R1S.

Let's get this out of the way right now: The R1S is most likely going to be a better vehicle than the R2. Rivian isn't replacing the R1S with the R2 — it's releasing the R2 as a more affordable alternative, and there will be some compromises when buying the R2 over the R1S.

Don’t let the gimmicks fool you. The Ioniq 5 N is a serious track car
2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 N drifting.

We’re finally getting to the fun part of automakers’ methodical quest to replicate their lineups with electric cars.

Performance versions of ordinary cars have been a staple of the auto industry for decades. But while we’ve already seen some variants of EVs boasting more power and more impressive stats — think Tesla Model S Plaid or Lucid Air Sapphire — the 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 N is the first to truly apply that format to an EV.
