With a competitive price, winning design, and better performance than the R1, Rivian could be set to break into the big leagues. Just make sure you get the right model with the right tech. For years, Rivian made one argument: Serious all-electric adventure vehicles had to cost serious money. The R1S, still one of the more capable off-roaders on any surface, starts at $75,900. The R2 is Rivian's answer to its own problem.

Is the Ferrari Luce's Design Really That Bad? 3 Italian Auto Experts Weigh In The first electric Ferrari is already this year's most divisive car. We asked three Italian auto industry professionals to explain where the EV's design makes sense, and where it doesn't add up. The Ferrari Luce, the first electric vehicle in the brand's history, has generated heated discussion online, as comments and opinions about the design continue to bounce around the web. The Luce, an electric sedan with a $650,000 price tag that Ferrari presented with pomp and circumstance at the Quirinale in Rome on Monday, has paid dearly for its coming out from behind the curtain. Since Monday, the automaker has been suffering an avalanche of complaints and skepticism about the Luce.

Ikea's New Designer Collection Is Home-Office Heaven From a twisty lamp to a bendy clock, the Swedish company's full 2026 PS Collection has dropped. It's a boon for those looking to refine their homes and workstations. Now that the hubbub of the cat-tested blow-up chair has calmed down, Ikea has taken the wraps off the rest of its latest PS Collection (which stands for Post Scriptum). Consisting of 44 pieces, including the viral inflatable PS 2026 Easy Chair, the furniture brand says the theme of the 2026 PS Collection is playful functionality. The new PS Collection (available in stores from May 14, then online from May 22) has not one but two options for accommodating impromptu sleepovers.

As electric vehicles have gone mainstream, buyers are facing a smorgasbord of options, and Tesla--once untouchable--is no longer the dominant force. Last year was a tough one for Elon Musk's auto brand: Sales efforts faltered, and the company lost its title of world's largest EV maker to China's BYD . Today, it feels like all automakers-- including luxury brands --are racing to release their own EVs. But at the same time, some companies are scaling back production plans . So where is the market headed?

The new AI-DADA tool lets you create a unique Swatch design using AI prompts. You can't make a custom MoonSwatch yet--but it's not entirely off the table. Cast your mind back to 2017. In those heady days before ChatGPT and DALL-E, and Zoom calls, Swatch launched a fancy online platform that let you, the watch-buying public, design your own Swatch watch . It was called Swatch x You, and it let you tweak Swatch's standard New Gent 41-mm model by selecting one of the (surprisingly limited) preset designs, which you could then move, zoom, and rotate to fit over the watch and strap.

Porsche's much-anticipated 2026 EV has charging tech akin to a giant Qi puck. But what happens when Mittens or Fido gets in the way of 11 kilowatts invisibly flying through the air? Yes, it's still a prototype, but Porsche is finally letting people experience what it's next electric car will be like when it hits production next year. We got a briefing on the underpinnings of the new architecture for the Cayenne Electric, peeked at the very fancy finalized interior, and experienced a few hot laps being driven by one of Porsche's professional drivers. However, the highlight was, oddly, none the above, it was getting to try out the Cayenne Electric's party trick and experience exactly how Porsche's wireless charging system works for the EV, and how ridiculously similar the process is to plonking your phone down on a Qi charging puck .

I'm Emma Wall and I'm joined today by Jeremy White to talk about Artificial Intelligence. Wall: Just a bit of buzz word at the moment AI, but what does it actually mean? It actually means many different things and people use it as a catch-hold to try and workout what they are talking about really, because it includes machine learning and it includes narrow AI, and broader AI. So, most people have encountered narrow AI what they consider to be with these chat box that you talk on your phone and you think you're having an conversation with somebody but you're not. It's almost like a decision pre-process you can very easily fool them.
