Tested: 2022 Mercedes-Maybach S580 Is Upper S-Class
The rebranded S-class does feel truly special, but it carries a serious price.
www.caranddriver.com
The potential customer base for a car that can deliver the sumptuous comfort of a private jet and the performance of a muscle car is likely a small one, but we should be happy that the Mercedes-Maybach S580 has it covered. Wearing the two-tone paint scheme that signals its superiority over the regular S-class—a $14,500 option we suspect most buyers will go for—this XL sedan looks like it should be gently shuttling A-listers between red carpets. Yet it is brutally fast when unleashed, even if doing so would likely cause rear-seat passengers to spill their champagne (from their Maybach-branded flutes).
How fast? During testing, the Maybach S580 blasted its way from zero to 60 mph in just 4.1 seconds, from rest to 100 mph in 10 seconds flat, and through the quarter-mile in just 12.6 seconds. The V-8 Bentley Flying Spur is slightly quicker, but it is also more obviously aimed at those who drive themselves rather than relax in the back. The Maybach feels like a luxury yacht with the punch of a speedboat—and the forthcoming S680, with its 621-hp V-12, should be even quicker.
Yet even the most demanding plutocrat would find it hard to feel shortchanged by the S580 and its 496-hp twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8. Performance is delivered without drama—full throttle produces an exhaust note that sounds as if it's issuing from several towns away. Under more respectful use the engine is almost silent, with the Maybach's cabin very hushed at cruising speeds. We recorded 64 decibels at a 70-mph cruise, and Maybach's active noise cancellation effectively suppresses low-frequency road rumble and makes the cabin seem even quieter. The low ambient noise also provides a blemish-free auditory backdrop for the superb 30-speaker Burmeister audio system.

2023 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 With Z07 Package First Test: HyperVette
The C8 Z06 with Z07 package is ready to run with the hypercars. Our exclusive instrumented testing proves it!
"2023 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 With Z07 Package First Test: HyperVette
The C8 Z06 with Z07 package is ready to run with the hypercars.
MotorTrend Figure-Eight Record-Setter!
Our first crack at a Z06 was our Car-of-the Year-contending Z06 convertible. Relative to that car, this one weighs 88 pounds less, gets lightweight carbon-fiber wheels that shave around 10 pounds of unsprung weight and rotational inertia off each corner, and a major tire upgrade from the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S ZP to the Pilot Sport Cup 2 R ZP. Combined, these changes improve its performance in our racetrack-in-a-bottle figure-eight time from 22.70 seconds at a combined lateral and longitudinal g average of 0.93 to just 21.85 seconds at 0.99 g. We're showing the hundredths of a second to point out that this result was sufficient to just barely slip ahead of our previous record holder, the then-$964,996 2019 McLaren Senna (21.90 seconds at 1.02g, average).
Sadly, this record lasted only a matter of minutes, because sharing the test session was another top-performing supercar, the McLaren 765LT Spyder. That $489,110, carbon-tubbed spaceship, weighing 453 pounds less and shod with Pirelli P Zero Trofeo R tires, shaved 0.05 second off the Z07-ized Z06's record time, and added 0.02 average g."
Etc. Continues in the link.
Performance:
0-60 MPH 2.8 sec
QUARTER MILE 10.8 sec @ 128.2 mph
BRAKING, 60-0 MPH 95 ft
LATERAL ACCELERATION 1.16 g (avg)
MT FIGURE EIGHT 21.9 sec @ 0.99 g (avg)

The Kia EV6 GT is probably one of my favorite EV models at the moment. Such a stylish car with great interior. Love those AMG style sports seats.
The performance stats are hugely impressive. 0-100 in 3.6sec and 100-200km/h in only 9.1sec. This car is as fast as a Lambo Urus!!!

Menzel tested the i4 M50 in Fast lap. He was not happy at all, the car was not able to make a full lap at full power due to overheating and cutting the power. Slow in the corners, steering without any feedback. He liked the brakes (despite the weight of 2350 kg) and the comfort of the suspension.
