2024 PORSCHE CAYENNE TURBO GT
We're all getting by with less these days, even Porsche Cayenne customers. For 2024, Porsche is reducing its nine Cayenne trim levels to four. At the top is the Cayenne Turbo GT, a 650-hp beast that puts the sport in sport-utility vehicle. It's exclusive to the U.S. market and comes only in the Coupe body style. Compared with the previous Turbo GT, the 2024 model gains 19 horsepower. Porsche claims it will reach 60 mph in 3.1 seconds on its way to a 189-mph top speed-a conservative estimate, considering we got the previous model to 60 in 2.8 seconds.
Stomp on the accelerator in Sport Plus mode, and the Cayenne Turbo GT snarls ferociously through its titanium exhaust, with pops and crackles on throttle overrun. Clearly, this isn't a typical errand runner. There's a slight hiccup as numerous systems sort out traction and the next gear change (which spotlights how spoiled we've become with the immediacy and linearity of EVs).

Drivelines - Refreshed but Not Revitalized. The Forester has long begged for more driver interaction, anything to differentiate it.
Refreshed but Not Revitalized. The Forester has long begged for more driver interaction, anything to differentiate it. But its innate funkiness has been discarded in a roadside ditch. Sure, it’s practical. But if that’s what you’re after, go hug your dishwasher. This redo feels half-hearted when what the Forester really wanted was a whole new hear

Now hybrid only, the Toyota Camry features careful tweaks for its ninth generation.
Stress Reliever
IN THE LINCOLN NAUTILUS, the loudest sound you hear at highway speeds is the rhythmic respiration of the massaging seats. With just 66 decibels of interior noise at 70 mph, this slick-looking new Lincoln is on a mission of zen.
Mega Bus
A three-row mid-size SUV trying to look and feel bigger, the latest has size on its side but still lacks charisma.

What the Tech?
IT’S NO COMPLAINT TO SAY that given the slow visual evolution of the Mercedes-Benz E-class, many wouldn’t notice that the stately three-box sedan has entered a new generation this year.
The Full Monty Carlo
EVERYONE IS NAKED. Just putting that out in the open.
THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS

Sterrato > Dirt Road
Nothing lost in translation here. Might as well call it what it is: the best Lamborghini Huracán ever.
