VW Sells Iconic Italian Car Designer

Heads up, car lovers: VW is putting Italdesign—the creative minds behind classics like the original Golf and the DeLorean—up for sale to save some cash. Why? VW’s feeling the pinch as it tries to go electric, so it’s trimming the fat. If you’re a fan of legendary car designs, this could mean fewer wild concept cars in the future. Stay tuned—big changes are brewing in the auto world! #CarNews #VW #Italdesign #MoneyMoves #AutoTrends #Business

New Buick Envision Colors Dropping!

Car color lovers, listen up! The 2026 Buick Envision is swapping out its paint palette—Midnight Opal and Quartz Blue Metallic are in, while Smokey Amethyst and Calypso Blue are out. If you want those outgoing shades, better hunt them down before they disappear after May 2025. Oh, and White Frost Tricoat is being replaced too. Heads up: prices might go up thanks to tariffs, but the engine and features are basically sticking around. Which color would you pick? #BuickEnvision #CarNews #AutoTrends #NewColors #CarEnthusiast #Cars

EV Owners Fuming Over New $200 Fee

Electric and hybrid car drivers might soon get hit with a $200 (or $100 for hybrids) annual fee just for driving greener. Lawmakers say it’s about fairness since EVs don’t pay gas taxes, but drivers are calling it a slap in the face for going eco-friendly. With living costs already wild, is this really the time to make clean driving more expensive? Would this change your mind about switching to an EV? #EVs #CarNews #ElectricVehicles #HybridCars #HighwayTrustFund #AutoTrends #Transportation

Genesis’ Hybrid SUV Drops Next Xmas!

Genesis is finally rolling out its first hybrid GV70 SUV, but don’t get too excited yet—it’s not landing until December 2026. This new ride is an EREV (think: gas engine charges the battery, but never touches the wheels), and it’s based on the current GV70. There’s still a lot up in the air, like which engine they’ll use and if it’ll hit the US first. Oh, and those new tariffs? Prices might spike soon, so keep your eyes peeled! #GenesisGV70 #HybridSUV #CarNews #EREV #AutoTrends #Cars

What’s Up With Blue Dots on Taillights?

Ever spotted a motorcycle with a hint of blue in its taillight and wondered what’s going on? It’s not just a random mod—these blue dots are a throwback to 1950s hot rod culture, making a comeback for style and nostalgia. Some bikers say it helps with visibility, but honestly, it’s mostly about looking cool. Heads up though: it’s technically illegal in most places unless your ride is vintage or for show. Risky? Maybe. Iconic? Absolutely. #MotorcycleMods #CustomBikes #CarCulture #Nostalgia #AutoTrends #Cars

Honda HR-V Price Hike Drama

Honda’s making the HR-V pricier for 2026—every trim is getting a bump, and there’s no real reason given (inflation? tariffs? who knows). The base model now starts at $27,595, but you’re not getting any new features for the extra cash. Meanwhile, Toyota and Nissan’s compact SUVs are still cheaper and sometimes better equipped. Would you pay more for the same car, or are you eyeing the competition? #HondaHRV #CarNews #SUVShopping #PriceHike #AutoTrends #Cars

$200 EV Fee Incoming?! Here’s the Scoop

If you drive an electric or hybrid car, heads up: a new bill could hit you with a $200 annual fee (hybrids pay half) starting in 2030—and it’ll go up every year. Lawmakers say it’s to make up for lost gas tax revenue since EVs don’t fill up at the pump. Some reps are calling it a total gimmick, but if it passes, it could rake in $50 billion over 10 years. Would this change your mind about going electric? #ElectricVehicles #CarNews #EVLife #HybridCars #AutoTrends #Transportation
