A Japanese firm by the name of Flex Automotive has been in operation for over 50 years and will soon enter the U.S. for the first time. It offers up retro conversions for a range of contemporary Toyotas, and it plans to enter the U.S. with a pair of retro Land Cruiser conversions, as well as a conversion for the Tacoma pickup truck.

It seems like Mercedes-Benz’s latest S-Class only just arrived but the automaker is already out testing an updated version. It’s still early days as the updated version isn’t expected on the market for another two years. The car could end up being the last S-Class to offer internal-combustion engines, as Mercedes will start migrating its top-end models to dedicated EV platforms from 2025.

A redesigned Honda Civic Type R with more performance and refinement is coming for the 2023 model year. How much more performance? Honda said the new Civic Type R lapped Japan’s Suzuka International Racing Course in a record time for front-wheel-drive cars, with the gap between it and its predecessor measuring almost a full second.
