A Week of Exciting News and Exclusive Test Drives for Car Enthusiasts
This week in the automotive world was packed with major headlines—ranging from iconic engine comebacks to exclusive supercar experiences, safety concerns, and standout test drives. Here's a roundup of the most important developments that caught global and regional attention: HEMI V8 Makes a Triumphant Comeback at Stellantis In a bold move responding to overwhelming market demand, Stellantis reintroduced the legendary HEMI V8 engine in the 2026 RAM 1500 lineup. Despite introducing the more efficient Hurricane engine, 40% of customers still prefer the raw power and unmistakable sound of the V8. The result? Over 10,000 orders in just 24 hours, even with an added cost of $1,200. RAM's CEO openly admitted misjudging the market—proving that for many, power and identity outweigh eco-efficiency. Exclusive Arab Test Drive of Ferrari's F80 Beast ArabGT was the only Arab media outlet among 20 journalists worldwide to get behind the wheel of the all-new Ferrari F80 2025—Ferrari's most powerful road-legal car to date. Driven by Suhaib Shasha'a on Italy's Misano circuit, the F80 stunned with its hybrid V6 twin-turbo system and futuristic aerodynamic design. More than a car, the F80 is an engineering statement, redefining performance and Italian excellence. Range Rover Evoque Recall Due to Airbag Defect Jaguar Land Rover has recalled over 21,000 Range Rover Evoque units in the U.S. due to a critical front passenger airbag defect that could cause severe injuries. Covering model years 2021 to 2025, the recall is expected to expand globally. Though no injuries have been reported, the move underscores the importance of safety compliance even in luxury vehicles. ArabGT's Exclusive Drive of the New AMG GT 63 In a thrilling episode of ArabGT's test drive series, host Karim Deeb took the wheel of the all-new second-generation Mercedes AMG GT 63. The drive offered a fresh perspective on how this German powerhouse evolved—not just in speed, but in everyday comfort, tech sophistication, and overall balance. More than a spec sheet, it was a driving experience that proves AMG still knows how to stir the soul. BMW Sub-Brands Steal the Spotlight BMW's Q2 2025 results revealed a surprising trend: its sub-brands—BMW M, MINI, and Rolls-Royce—are driving growth, while the core BMW brand saw a slight decline. MINI drew buyers with its electrified icons, M Division impressed with sports performance, and Rolls-Royce flourished in wealthy markets. With electric models gaining traction and sub-brands thriving, the future strategy of BMW may be headed in a new direction.

Lions dl levi onwuzurike out for season with acl surgery, setback for team with ailing alim mcneill
Allen Park, Mich. – Detroit Lions defensive lineman Levi Onwuzurike is out for the season after having knee surgery – a setback for a franchise that was counting on him to fill in for Alim McNeill. Lions coach Dan Campbell made the announcement on Sunday morning just before his team had the NFL's first training camp practice of the year. The 27-year-old Onwuzurike started in a career-high 11 games last season, including Detroit's loss to Washington in the divisional round. His playing time increased when McNeill had a season-ending knee injury in December. McNeill, who signed a 97 million four-year contract extension last October, is out indefinitely. Onwuzurike's injury gives rookie defensive tackle Tyleik Williams a chance to play a significant role when the two-time defending NFC North champions kick off the season Sept. 7 at Green Bay. Detroit drafted the former Ohio State standout with the 28th pick overall in the NFL draft. The 6-foot-3 334-pound Williams started 13 games for the national champion Buckeyes and had 46 tackles, including eight for losses and 2 1/2 sacks. The Lions will also lean on 31-year-old defensive tackle DJ Reader and newly acquired veteran Roy Lopez, who started 16 games last season for Arizona and has 50 career starts with the Cardinals and Houston Texans.
