Prognostications about the future are most always wrong. But in a life that revolves around driving, we still keep our eyes up and on the horizon.

A completely subjective list of my favorite new cars of 2016.

“Think of it as Frank Lloyd Wright having returned from the dead to oversee the Guggenheim’s renovation and pen the addition.”

Rolls-Royce provides a first peek at its biggest (or at least its heaviest) product news of the decade.

Rem Koolhaas, Norman Foster, Baz Luhrmann, and Mercedes-Benz build an exclusive luxury resort/”ashram” in Miami Beach.

Zaha Hadid, Daniel Libeskind, and Norman Foster judge a monument to raging bull.

“With an electric vehicle, you’re freed from convention. You can really rake the front.”
