SEMA is coming up, so get ready for some custom concepts in this weekly auto news recap 🔥

🇬🇧 Aston Martin has pulled the roof off its already wild Valhalla supercar! The new Valhalla Spider pairs a twin-turbo V8 with hybrid assistance to deliver over 1,000 horsepower, while giving drivers an even better soundtrack and an open-air driving experience.

🇯🇵 Nissan has unveiled a new Sentra SPEC-V concept that pays tribute to the sport compact era and borrows performance parts from the GT-R, Z, and Juke NISMO RS. The end result? Wild looks, 300 horsepower, and a manual transmission!

🇩🇪 Want your BMW X3 to look a little meaner? BMW has introduced a new Power Appearance Package for the X3 M50 that adds a more aggressive exterior design, unique wheels, and sporty visual enhancements. For 2027, the X3 also gains more power with output now upped to 437 hp.

🇯🇵 Toyota is getting ready for SEMA with a wide range of custom builds! The most impressive of them is the Crown Signia GT-S, which is lowered and features menacing bodywork for a striking wagon-like look! Additionally, Toyota is bringing 5 Woodland concepts that make existing models even more off-road ready.

Which one are you choosing? 🤔

Your 1,100+ hp Mercedes is now available as an SUV!

Here is your automotive news recap as a Monday edition because admin was out-of-office last week 😌

Following in the footsteps of the new GT 4-Door, the 2028 Mercedes-AMG GT SUV is available as a GT53, GT55, and GT63, with the latter achieving a claimed 0 to 60 mph time of just 2.4 seconds thanks to its 1,153 horsepower tri-motor setup!

To celebrate 125 years of Cadillac, the 2027 Escalade-V is available as a "Collector Series" with unique exterior and interior colours, carbon fibre accents, and a customisable VIN and serial number. Only 252 units will be sold across Canada and the US.

The extended range battery is now standard on the 2027 Ford Mustang Mach-E, while a new 91.0 kWh battery now gives even more range to the top trim Mach-Es. Also new is the "Trail" trim which adds a lift, all-terrain tires, and a revised suspension to make the Mach-E more off-road capable.

Inspired by the Elements, the new INEOS Grenadier Helmsman is the first of several special editions coming to the INEOS Grenadier lineup. The Helmsman features unique exterior and interior styling elements to bring an aquatic theme to the rugged SUV.

They fly now?! 😳

It's time for your weekly automotive news recap 👇

🇺🇸 Tesla has unveiled an all-new version of the Tesla Roadster, which now targets a release date of 2028. The Roadster will be available as a regular EV with a suction fan for downforce, a "Thrust" version which adds SpaceX-supplied thrusters for a 0-60 mph time of about 0.8 seconds, and a "Rocket" version that is able to jump and perform aerobatics.

Availability of these features will depend on local regulations, but the photos you are seeing are real - a prototype really jumped over the Tesla lineup at yesterday's launch event.

🇺🇸 The 2027 Ford Bronco gets new options and trims, with the biggest change being the addition of a detuned version of the Raptor's 3.0L twin turbo V6 to the regular Bronco lineup.

🇩🇪 Sloped-back SUVs have arrived for BMW's electric vehicle lineup! The all-new iX4 is to the iX3 what the X4 is to the X3... kinda self-explanatory, right?

🇬🇧 Want to take your MINI to the trails? The MINI Countryman added the new "Untamed" trim which brings along a lift, new wheels and all-terrain tires, and an optionally available rooftop tent!

🇬🇧 Hot on the heels of announcing the first-ever Range Rover EV, the British luxury brand has now unveiled its second electric vehicle in the form of the 2028 Range Rover Sport Electric!

🇬🇧 If the DBX707 was a little too hardcore for you, you will love the new Aston Martin DBX GT. While it has just as much power as the 707, the GT comes with a more laid-back attitude and a softer suspension.

🇯🇵 Need to take the family off-road? Toyota's Grand Highlander has added the Woodland trim, which comes with a slight lift, all-terrain tires, and some other interior goodies that'll come in handy when camping.

8.3L diesel V8! Yes, you've read that right. The new 2027 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra heavy-duty trucks come standard with GM's new 6.6L gas V8, but also offer a brand-new 8.3L DURAMAX diesel that produces 1,230 lb-ft of torque and tows up to 38,000 lbs!

Bentley is entering the EV market with the all-new Torcal. This boldly-styled EV comes with a dual motor setup and up to 876 horsepower... and all the luxury amenities you could ever wish for.

Three wildly different vehicles... which one would you take if you could choose one? 🤔
