The Mahindra Roxor New Look

Team Vanish — Fri, 27 Mar 2020 01:57:26 +0000

The updated Roxor’s appeal goes beyond its styling. Mahindra’s wee four-wheel-drive utility vehicle benefits from improved off-road performance, thanks to shorter new 5.38:1 axle ratios that replace the prior model’s 3.73:1 gears. With the 62-hp turbodiesel 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine’s mighty 144 lb-ft of torque available from as low as 1,400 rpm working in tandem with the standard five-speed manual or available six-speed automatic transmission and two-speed transfer case (and 9 inches of ground clearance) the Roxor is a proper rock-crawler.

Unfortunately, off-road is where it has to stay, as the $16,599 Mahindra, which tops out at 55 mph, is not street legal. While the Roxor’s refreshed face might help pacify FCA, it won’t prevent authorities from citing individuals who dare to drive the little trucklet on public roads.

Ready, Set, BRONCO! We are really excited that Ford is bringing back the legendary Bronco in 2020.

The roof will also be removable. Ford will also offer a hybrid powertrain on the new Bronco. We can’t wait for the final debut of the Bronco! More information should be coming out very soon.

Rivian R1T

Jon Gaffney — Tue, 11 Dec 2018 23:16:27 +0000

We’ve been waiting for something like the Rivian R1T, and while we’ll actually have to keep waiting till 2020, we’re pumped. Billed as the World’s First Electric Adventure Vehicles, the R1T is the pickup option of Rivian’s two vehicles. Its aesthetics are both futuristic and vintage. Flowing lines, vertical oval headlights, and a modern touch screen interior blended with boxy proportions more Icon than Tesla. Rivian claims 250-400 mile range for R1T courtesy of its Quad Motor System. Those four motors pump out 750HP and enough torque for a 3 second 0-60MPH. With best in class lockable storage, multiple 110v outlets to charge from, and a built in air compressor it’s impossible not to let your mind run wild with build scenarios of an electric overlander with the performance of a supercar. For now we’ll just have to wait patiently for the future to arrive.

$61,500 Starting Price after Federal Tax Rebates
