An EV for people with petrol in their blood

We are constantly being told that going electric is the future of motoring. As we showed in this picture from the 1980’s, their view of motoring was quite different to where we seem to be heading. But it seems that we can still keep some of the Hot Rod dream alive with the Ford E-Rod. This ...

Motormorph Digest: KERS

KERS is the magic acronym which is floating around the F1 paddock and being quoted more in motoring publications than Jade Goody in OK magazine (well, nearly).  But what is this mystical power that gives F1 cars the Popeye and spinach effect? This new gadget in the F1 cockpit stands for Kinetic Energy Recovery System and it ...

After hearing of Sir Stirling Moss’ accident this morning we thought you should see his house of gadgets. Earlier today Sir Stirling broke both his ankles from falling down a lift shaft at his Mayfair home when the lift wasn’t present. In this video you get to see Sir Stirling’s one off carbon fibre lift (the only one in the world) and his obsession for gadgets.

We wish you a quick and speedy recovery Sir Stirling.

What happens when you strap a Grandma into a race spec Seat Leon? Well, she screams – a lot.

This is why you should never lend your Volvo keys to your kids.
Turbo Volvo drifts on to highway

Mulholland drive is one of the world’s most recognised roads. A thin layer of asphalt which winds its way around Los Angeles’ rich and famous. But what happens when you let Tanner Foust and his V8 RWD Scion tC loose on the road? Well we will just have to wait and see.

This is simple. Some great videography + a great soundtrack + lots of drifting skill = a great video to watch.

If you thought that Heikki Kovalainen just went skiing during the off-season you were wrong. At least if he is rubbish at Lotus he can always fall back on the ice fishing for a living.

Can you kickflip a Qashqai+2? October 12th, 2009

Can you kickflip a Qashqai+2?

A few weeks ago Motormorph had the opportunity to test Nissan’s Qashqai+2. Initially perplexed by the thought of a family car as we have parenting experience on par with Jade Goody, I stuck to what I knew and played around with the tech inside the car. Below is a quick POV (Point Of View) video ...

Morgan 4/4 blasting around Millbrook

The Morgan Motor Company is one of the last bastions in the British motor car manufacturing game. At Morgan they are true Brits, they build cars in a shed, eat sausages and use seemingly archaic materials such as wood to make fantastic sports cars. The Morgan 4/4 is the Grandad of the pack being a motoring ...

The rise of the Korean foot soldier September 7th, 2009

The rise of the Korean foot soldier

Kia and Korean cars in general have always had stigma placed upon them due to their rapid invasion into the mass automotive market. The stereotype tends to be that they are cheap cars purely designed to undercut other car manufacturers – the loss leader. But as Hyundai-Kia Automotive’s latest sales figures place the Korean automaker as ...

The Smart CDi – the automotive Goomba

I didn’t think that Super Mario baddies and City cars had too much in common. But after testing one for a weekend there seems to be quite a lot of similarities. The new Smart ForTwo diesel is noisy like a Goomba, stands up well against things bigger than it, like a Goomba, and will always be ...

Honda Insight: A hybrid sucker punch to Prius August 5th, 2009

Honda Insight: A hybrid sucker punch to Prius

Could the Honda Insight be the sucker punch of hybrid cars? After a four-day test drive, I’m ready to give it pretty good odds. It was just a few years ago that hybrids — cars powered by both electricity and petrol — were perceived mostly as the preferred mode of transportation for smug LA celebs and hardcore ...
