Review: 2025 Lotus Emeya S
Lotus. It’s a brand that conjures up plenty of nostalgic memories from Formula 1 to James Bond. Of course, one common thread holding them together is the spirit of being lightweight—a philosophy its founder, Colin Champman lived and breathed by. Now, however, Lotus is much more complicated. Thanks to Chinese money, it’s basically split into two, three if you count its engineering arm. There’s Lotus Cars which still makes sportscars, and there’s Lotus Tech, an EV lifestyle brand. Regardless, they sell everything under one roof.

Review: 2025 MINI Cooper SE Electric
If there’s one vehicle that’s well-suited to an all-electric transition here and now, it’s the Mini Cooper. Minis, particularly the OG 3-door Cooper promise a go-kart-like driving experience, and the point-and-squeeze nature of a battery electric vehicle seems to match that character. And while the fourth-generation Cooper isn’t the first one to offer motivation by electrons, it’s the first one that rides on a proper ground-up developed EV platform. The question is: does it preserve Mini’s fun-to-drive attitude or will it have Alec Issigonis turning in his grave.
