Boeing’s Biggest Bird Leaves the Nest

EVERETT, Washington — Boeing’s biggest commercial airplane took off for the first time today, one day short of the 41st anniversary of the maiden flight of the first 747. The 747-8, airframe No. RC501, taxied onto runway 34L at Paine Field, then sped down the runway and into the air at 12:39 p.m. It quickly vanished [...]

Ford Shelby GT500: Too Much Is Just Enough

There’s no replacement for displacement, and although Carroll Shelby didn’t coin the phrase, he sure believes in it. He’s been spreading that gospel since back in the day when he was shoehorning Ford V8s into ACs and Sunbeams and literally making Ford’s Mustang live up to its pony car name. Ol’ Shel is at it again, [...]

Electric Cars, And Chargers, Poised to Flood Israel

Shai Agassi boldly predicts one-third of Israel’s cars will run on electricity within five years. It would be an outlandish claim if the entrepreneur hadn’t lined up a sweet plan to jump-start the country’s adoption of EVs. Agassi’s Silicon Valley startup Better Place has signed a deal under which 92 corporate fleet owners will replace their [...]

First Chevrolet Volt Rolls Off The Line Nov. 1

Mark your calendars — General Motors fires up the Volt assembly line on Nov. 1.

The General always has [...]

It’s official. For the second time in less than two months, a new Boeing design will make its first flight today. Currently the weather at Paine Field in Everett is looking good for the scheduled 10am first flight of the 747-8 (airframe RC501). The new freighter version of Boeing’s classic 747 is the largest airliner the [...]

Don’t Expect Profits From Tesla Anytime Soon

Tesla Motors, which has teetered on the brink of collapse before, has landed a fat federal loan and hopes to score $100 million from an IPO, but the financial picture will get worse before it gets better. We already knew the Silicon Valley automaker lost $31.5 million in the first nine months of 2009. Although the [...]

Transportation Boss Fears More In-Car Gadgetry

Everyone is connected to everything these days and gadgets rule our lives. This is increasingly true of our cars as automakers bring everything from navigation to Internet access to our dashboards. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood thinks this is a problem and wants it to stop. The nation’s top transportation official worries the proliferation of in-car gadgetry [...]

You Can’t Unsee This Ugly EV

To hear the specs, the Lampo2 electric vehicle is sexy as hell: prodigious power, tremendous torque and respectable range. But it all goes bad quickly when you actually see the car. Seriously. Just look at this thing. Swiss EV dabblers Protoscar took the reasonably attractive, if somewhat quirky, Lampo EV concept we drove and made it [...]

High Society Swedish Beauty Turns 75

Volvo is celebrating the 75th anniversary of the streamlined PV36 sedan, a high-end automobile that signified a departure from Volvo’s previous indestructible, utilitarian designs. The car only sold 500 units, so for the next few decades Volvo went back to what they did best: building the automotive equivalent of James Garner. Designed by Ivan Örnberg, the [...]

Your Harley’s Got Nothin’ On This

If there’s one thing we love more than Italian cars, it’s motorcycles. Or maybe it’s the other way around. No matter, because this wild machine joins our two passions in an Alfa Romeo-powered custom named, appropriately, Alfabeast.
