Description:
The Biden Administration has implemented new tariffs on imported goods from China, including electric vehicles, causing concerns for the e-bike industry as most e-bikes in the US come from China. The specifics of the tariffs and their impact on e-bikes are unclear, but the administration's reasoning is to protect American manufacturers from unfair trade practices. The Trump administration's 2018 tariffs initially targeted electric bicycles with a 25% duty, but these were eventually granted multiple exemptions.

_decoliner-the-36500000-double-decker-motorhome.webp "A RENOWNED automotive artist has built a $500,000 motorhome that you can drive from the roof. Randy Grubb, from Oregon, is well-known for building beautiful and unique chrome vehicles. Some of his masterpieces include the Blastolene Indy Special, Jay Leno Tank Car, Decoson and the $500,000 motorhome - the Decoliner. Inspired by the 1980s sci-fi space traveller Flash Gordon, Randy spent over $100,000 in parts and 6,000 hours in manpower on the stylised mobile home. Using the chassis of a 1973 GMC motorhome which sports a front-wheel drive, it allows the frame of the Decoliner to be very low to the ground, around 14 inches. This means that Randy had enough space to stack the vehicle as a double decker and for an additional driving position on the roof low enough to fit under most bridges and overpasses. Randy and his wife drove the Decoliner all over America, putting over 15,000 miles on the camper without being stopped for the unusual driving position.")

_new-cupra-formentor-design-preview.webp "The latest CUPRA Formentor was unveiled to the world on the 29th of April, but it’s a car that emerged five years ago as the first model designed and developed exclusively by CUPRA. Since then, it’s become the company’s bestselling model and will now be its new icon. A few days before the World Premiere, CUPRA Head of Design, Jorge Diez, went to take a look at it during a photo shoot. His words on entering the set speak volumes, “It’s provocative, it’s authentic, it’s going to surprise the world.” And that’s exactly what it’s done. Achieving this with a model that was already a success, is the result of a restyling in which the essence of the brand can be seen in every detail and which Jorge explains as he looks over the CUPRA Formentor.")
_man-transforms-back-to-the-future-cars-into-bizarre-creations.webp "A MAN who collects DeLorean cars has transformed the classic Back To The Future vehicles into a monster truck, a limousine, a hovercraft, a convertible and a Time Machine Replica. Rich Weissensel, a software engineer, is fanatic about the two-door sports car and owns five custom creations – including a stretched DeLorean Limousine - and three stock DeLoreans. Rich has re-modeled the stainless-steel shape of the iconic cars into bizarre and brilliant automotive creations in an ongoing, 14-year series of projects. The projects started after Rich met the car's founder John DeLorean at the Cleveland DeLorean Car Show in 2000 and showed him some of his ideas and sketches. Rich from Chicago, Illinois, built a custom hovercraft using the stainless steel panels of the DeLorean and a hovercraft cushion which allows the DeLorean to float over any surface.")

In combination with various lightweight construction and aerodynamics measures, these all-electric GT sports cars raise the bar in terms of driving dynamics. A more powerful and efficient pulse inverter that uses silicon carbide as the semiconductor material is used on the rear axle. The first Taycan Turbo GT models should be delivered to customers from this spring.<br/><br/>Not yet on the market, but already a record holder<br/>The Taycan Turbo GT with Weissach package earned the title of fastest electric series-production car at the Weathertech Raceway Laguna Seca, in California, on 23 February 2024. With a time of 1:27.87min., Porsche development driver Lars Kern put in a faster lap than any other driver has before with a road-approved electric car.<br/><br/>Not long before that, a pre-production version of this same new model set a new class record on the Nürburgring. Kern was also at the wheel on that occasion and posted a lap time of 7:07.55 min. on the Nordschleife. This official lap time is a whopping 26 seconds faster than Kern recorded for his last record lap in a Taycan Turbo S Sport sedan equipped with the performance package back in August 2022. This time also stands as the current record for series-production electric cars and also makes the Turbo GT the fastest four-door of any powertrain type on the Nürburgring.")
_new-cupra-leon-interior-design.webp "The CUPRA Leon is developed to revamp the high-performance compact segment, building on the generations of vehicles that came before it.<br/>“The king of Leons draws together the core elements that every vehicle of the brand must have: design, performance and dynamism,” said Wayne Griffiths, President of CUPRA and SEAT. “It is a vehicle that is helping us to win over even the most demanding car enthusiast, grow the brand, and take its vehicles to an even broader audience.”<br/>Underpinned by the MQB Evo platform and a suite of technologies, the design and development team created a vehicle that specifically delivers CUPRA’s core characteristics. At its heart is a range of extraordinary powertrain options that mix the most advanced combustion technology and the pinnacle of the industry’s push towards electrification.<br/>Available in two body styles available – 5-door and Sportstourer – the CUPRA Leon expands its appeal, allowing customers to choose the vehicle that best fits their lifestyle, without needing to compromise on performance, comfort or practicality.")
