As fantastic as Infiniti’s new QX30 luxury compact may be, what we’re really itching to examine is the all-new Q60 Coupe. While it will still be a short while before we can share our firsthand impressions, we now have pricing information for the Japanese automaker’s most exciting model yet.

Set to arrive in U.S. showrooms starting in September, the Q60 will feature two engine options: a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder making 208 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, and a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 making 300hp and an unknown torque figure. For those wishing the Q60 would push the performance envelope a bit, fret not, because there’s a Red Sport 400 model on the way with, presumably, 400hp.

The entry-level Q60 2.0t will start at $39,855 (including destination) and will be a rear-wheel drive platform. All-wheel drive is available for an additional $2,000. Standard features include 19.0-inch wheels, LED headlights, 8-way adjustable sport seats, Bluetooth, and a rearview monitor. Should you desire more luxury amenities, the $2,350 Premium package can be tacked onto the RWD or AWD model, and includes a power moonroof, Bose 13-speaker audio system, and a few other creature comforts.

If 208hp doesn’t cut it, the twin-turbocharged V6 will cost an additional $3,000 over the cost of the 2.0t Premium, totaling $45,205 but comes standard with the Premium package options. The present range-topping 3.0t Premium AWD Q60 will retail for $47,205. Each of these prices includes a $905 destination fee.

In addition to announcing the Q60’s pricing, Infiniti is introducing a Reservation Program on its Infiniti USA site. Those who sign up to reserve one of the Q60 Coupes will receive their choice of gifts, including a GoPro Hero 4, Tumi luggage, or a Bose audio system. Shoppers interested in the Q60 have probably longed for the sports car since its debut, and likely don’t need incentives, but I doubt they’ll argue with a sweetened pot.

Mercedes-Benz G580 first drive: old-school off-roader goes electric
2025 Mercedes-Benz G580 from three quarter view.

American car buyers mostly know Mercedes-Benz as a luxury brand. But for decades, the automaker has also produced the tough, rugged G-Class (also known as the Geländewagen or G-Wagen), an SUV not afraid to get its leather upholstery muddy. And now, this iconic Mercedes is going electric.

The 2025 Mercedes-Benz G580 with EQ Technology — the final name of the SUV previously known as the EQG — isn’t the first electric off-roader. The Rivian R1S and R1T and GMC Hummer EV have proven that electric powertrains and off-roading are a great combination. But the electric G-Wagen is different because it’s based on an internal-combustion model — and a very traditional one at that.

Honda believes hydrogen semi trucks will make the case for fuel cells
Honda hydrogen fuel-cell semi truck.

Honda remains committed to hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles, but the market for those vehicles remains limited. So Honda is looking at other uses for fuel cells -- including commercial trucks.

To show how that could work, Honda converted a semi truck to fuel-cell power, replacing its diesel engine with three fuel-cell modules. Together, the three modules produce a combined 321 horsepower, and can propel the truck to a top speed of 70 mph. There's enough onboard hydrogen storage capacity for a 400-mile range with a full load, Honda claims.

Mercedes-Benz G580 vs Rivian R2: Is the much cheaper Rivian actually better?
2025 Mercedes-Benz G580 from three quarter view.

Mercedes-Benz has finally taken the wraps off of the new "Mercedes-Benz G580 with EQ Technology." Yeah, it's a mouthful, but it's basically a new electric G-Wagon. It looks a lot like the G-Wagon you know and love, but with an electric powertrain and a battery. It's not the only electric SUV out there, however, and there are some great ones -- like the Rivian R2.

Both the Mercedes G580 and the Rivian R2 have a lot going for them, but they also approach the electric SUV slightly differently. Is one better than the other? I put the two head-to-head to find out.

The approach that the two vehicles take to design is quite different -- and you might like one better than the other.
