How to buy a car online in Dubai

We were invited to check out Carzaty, the Middle East’s hottest digital-focused car dealership that operates in Oman and the UAE.

SSC Tuatara sets a new 500+ kph world speed record

SSC Tuatara sets a new 500+ kph world speed record

The speed barrier of 500 kph is a dream many car manufacturers aspire to breach, but none has ever reached there with a production car. Until now. Shelby SuperCars from the USA came up with the SSC Tuatara a couple of years ago with some bold claims. But unlike many small-time hypercar manufacturers, they did not just ramble about some unrealistic simulated numbers and left it there. They went on the tarmac and came back with a world record. The SSC Tuatara is the new “Fastest Production Car in the World.” But, there is a catch.

The new Navigator is big news for Lincoln, the luxury brand best known for warmed-over Fords until just a couple of years ago.

We drove the Ferrari 812 Superfast at Dubai Autodrome (video)

The new Ferrari 812 Superfast is the fastest regular-production car to come out of Maranello. It is quick enough to keep up with the LaFerrari up to the 100 kph mark, and outright beat the Enzo. Our resident journosaur Gautam drove the Ferrari 812 Superfast at the global launch, so you can read about the car in detail. But while I and Arabic editor Tammam were not invited to the event in Italy, we did get to drive it at the Dubai Autodrome racetrack recently for a couple of laps. You can check out Tammam’s Arabic video review,

After getting into the self-driving game a little late compared to several other mainstream carmakers, Honda plans to introduce cars with highly-automated driving capabilities in most driving situations by 2025. We tried out their latest autonomous prototypes during a trip to Honda’s R&D centre in Tochigi, Japan recently.
