1998 Volvo S70 GLT: Regular Car Reviews

The 1998 Volvo S70 GLT should be dead. It’s nearly 30 years old, has almost 280,000 miles, is missing a cylinder, leaks oil like state secrets, and sounds like it’s one cold start away from an overdue grave. And yet it just passed inspection. In this episode of Race to the Bottom, my ongoing ...

We're In the Dark Ages of Car Design

Modern car design has fallen apart, and nobody in the auto industry wants to admit it. If anything, it’s almost like they want to make it worse. From long, tall, pedestrian-safety noses, to a bunch of fake vents, fake exhausts, and fake diffusers that don’t actually do anything. Weâ€...
