…
Long before most US buyers have even seen the all-new Jeep Gladiator, let alone driven one, a run of 4190 limited-run Launch Editions have sold out. And they were on sale for just 24 hours.

Tesla has begun rolling out an over-the-air software change to its Navigate on Autopilot feature, which allows the car to automatically change lanes when driving on a highway.

Genesis Australia has finally confirmed pricing and specifications for the G80 sedan, following a two-year hiatus in Australia (when it was badged the Hyundai Genesis).
Essentially a refreshed, renamed version of that model, the G80 will kick off at $68,900 before on-road costs when it hits dealers in June, a $7000 increase over the starting price of the Hyundai-badged version.
Two main trim levels will be offered, both with the option of a Sport Design Pack, which adds $4000.
