If you like the styling of the classy Range Rover, but don't want to pay the extravagant prices required for the full-size model, the two-row Range Rover Sport is aimed squarely at you.

With a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version available, which extends range and will help limit time at the gas station, the Range Rover Sport aims to court those seeking not just an upscale SUV, but one with green credentials.

I recently spent some time behind the wheel of a 2025 Range Rover Sport PHEV, which battles an increasing number of luxurious vehicles (from the likes of Porsche, BMW, Lexus, Volvo, Mercedes-Benz and Audi) entering the space of plug-in power, and I’m back with a full report.

SUVs don't have to be boring. In fact, some are downright thrilling.

Case in point: I recently tested the 2025 Audi SQ7, a rare vehicle that checks all the boxes that both driving performance lovers and family-focused buyers are looking for in a car.

The regular Audi Q7 is already an excellent three-row luxury SUV, and by adding in a powerful V8 motor and 500 horsepower, the SQ7 takes that experience to new levels.

There are few true competitors to the SQ7, though BMW and Mercedes-Benz do offer powerful, 500+ horsepower versions of their larger SUVs.
Read on for a full breakdown of what the SQ7 has to offer.

One letter, and lots of fun.

That’s a simple way to describe the enthusiast-focused Z line from Nissan.

This sporty, old-school, rear-wheel drive coupe with 2 doors, 2 seats and a whole lot of power under the hood, is one that continues to impress.

After a redesign in 2023, the 2024 lineup adds the more powerful NISMO trim level, which I was recently able to experience.

And it’s definitely a memorable experience, with the Z NISMO offering a fun and fast, racetrack-ready vehicle for driving enthusiasts, highlighted by aerodynamic upgrades and booming power.

Its sports car competition is plentiful — from classics like the Ford Mustang and Chevy Corvette, to the newer Toyota GR Supra and more upscale offerings from BMW and Porsche — but the Z brings an attractive design and powerful performance that can handle the competition, and costs much less.
