Jeep Tried (And Failed) to Predict the Future With This Bizarre Concept

The Toyota and Lexus Supercars Debut Tonight: Watch the Livestream

Ford finds its EV sales numbers in a tough spot. The news isn’t surprising, of course, as federal tax credits have disappeared. What is surprising, however, is the rise of gas-powered Mustang sales. In November, Ford sold nearly as many pony cars as it did EVs. I don’t just mean…
