  • 2014 Volvo S60 T6, with 2015 Drive-E powertrain  -  First Drive, September 2013

    Zooming upward on a ribbon of road, along a cliff wall, between tight hairpin curves and breathtaking views in the mountains of Southern France, I goose the accelerator from about 2,000 rpm and hear a series of sounds that’s entirely foreign, especially in a Volvo: the wail and whine of a supercharger, overcome as the revs rise by a throaty four-cylinder note that’s then interrupted by the faintest wastegate sounds as I lift off, and click the steering-wheel paddle shifter with my left hand before the next hairpin. What we’re experiencing is the first of a completely new...

  • The Incident Lincoln Film

    It seems automakers are returning to the idea started years ago by BMW. Back in 2001 and 2002, BMW released a series of films called The Hire. Each showcased a different BMW product, while the second season focused entirely on the Z3. It was a tremendous run of videos, with each being directed by serious top tier talent. Recently, Lexus turned to the world of cinema with a short film series, and now it looks like Lincoln is taking the plunge as well. Lincoln has teamed up with Vanity Fair to produce a series of short films. It's called the Reimagine Project, and it is comprised of three short...
