Own one of F1 hero Michael Schumacher’s two Ferrari Enzos – that’s right, TWO

Did you know that legendary Formula 1 driver Michael Schumacher owns two Ferrari Enzos? Well, he did. They’re actually now both up for sale at the Ferrari and Maserati dealership Garage Zénith in Sweden.

We figured the king of F1 must have owned two Enzos because he’d still want one to play around with while the other one was in the shop. This might be true but the Schumacher’s Enzos weren’t identical.

Schumacher’s red Enzo features the signature of Ferrari chairman Luca di Montezemolo under the hood, which is no facture feature. This suggests this example was built exclusively for the legend himself. During his time with it, Schumacher managed to put 8,500 kilometers (5,280 miles) on the clock. Not bad for a man who probably doesn’t have a lot of time for leisurely cruising.

Most intriguingly of all, however, is Schumacher’s other Enzo, the FXX. This all-black, one-of-30 specialized supercar was build for track driving only. Accordingly, Schumacher only managed to put 900 kilometers (559 miles) on it, according to Motor Authority.

How much are the Swedes peddling these Italian beauties for? $1.47-million for the standard Enzo and $2.67-million for the FXX.

Why is Schumacher unloading his Ferraris? Maybe to make room for some new Mercedes-Benzes. Hopefully he’s not hard up for cash. He’s made more money in his racing career than the total GDP of some third-world countries in the same amount of time.

The Kia EV3 could be the cheap electric SUV we’ve been waiting for
White Kia EV3

The Kia EV9 was already one of the cheapest ways to get an electric SUV, but now the company is taking things to the next level. After teasing the Kia EV3 last year, the car is now official.

The EV3 is built to be a slightly smaller, cheaper version of the EV9 -- following the path of the Rivian R2, which arrived after the Rivian R1S. It's certainly not as technologically advanced as the EV9, but it still looks unmistakably like a modern Kia, and is clearly a sibling of the larger SUV. On the outside, the vehicle has the same split taillights and very similar Tiger Face front. But it is quite a bit smaller. The vehicle will be available in nine finishes -- however only "Aventurine Green" and "Terracotta" are being announced right now.

Kia EV3: release date, performance, range, and more
White Kia EV3

Kia is on a roll. Hot on the heels of the success of the Kia EV6 and EV9, the company is already announcing what could be its cheapest electric vehicle yet -- the Kia EV3.

The Kia EV line seems to follow the rule of lower numbers indicating a lower price — and if so, the EV3 will end up being the cheapest electric car Kia has released to date. That, however, thankfully doesn’t mean that the EV3 will be a low-end car — it just means that Kia may be pushing the boundaries on electric car pricing.

Kia EV3 vs Tesla Model Y: Can Kia’s new entry-level car take on Tesla?
White Kia EV3

The Kia EV3 is finally coming, and it could well end up being the best small-size electric SUV to buy when it finally rolls out. It's smaller than the Kia EV9, but it offers many of the same design elements and features. But there's another small-size electric car that's currently one of the most popular vehicles out there -- the Tesla Model Y.

How does the Kia EV3 compare with the Tesla Model Y? And is one vehicle actually better than the other? We put the Kia EV3 and the Tesla Model Y head-to-head to find out.
Design
The design of the Kia EV3 is very different than that of the Model Y, though they're both reasonably good-looking vehicles.
