Australia’s 10 cheapest new V8-powered cars
There was a time when the roar of eight-cylinder engines could be heard across Australia. In particular, a pair of quintessential Australian V8s dominate our roads: the Ford Falcon and the Holden Commodore. But those days are gone, and both of the above models no longer exist.

While this won't bother many people (and it certainly hasn't stopped us from flocking to buy new cars), some enthusiast buyers still crave V8 power.

Nissan Z recalled due to pop-up hood issue
Nissan is recalling Z cars because the pop-up hood may become deactivated. November 7, 2024 — Nissan Z is recalling nearly 4,800 vehicles in the United States and Canada due to a problem with the front bumper wiring harness.

Nissan Ariya review: Prioritize comfort like few EV rivals
Advantages >> Comfortable zero-gravity seats, spacious and well-designed cabin, quiet ride quality, intuitive infotainment system. Disadvantages>> Charging speeds are slow, there is no one-pedal driving mode, the base model has limited driving range and poor dynamic handling.

The shift elevates the Ariya from just another SUV in Nissan's lineup to a cornerstone of its electrification strategy.

With Titan gone, should Nissan build a 2025 Armada?
Independent designer Theottle has created a rendering of the Nissan Armada full-size pickup truck. This extended design subtly reflects the Armada's aesthetic while maintaining the silhouette of a classic pickup truck. With Titan's demise looming, this Armada concept offers an interesting alternative. Nissan recently introduced the 2025 Patrol and its American twin, the all-new Armada, breathing fresh life into the full-size SUV market. Sensing an opportunity, digital artist Theottle stepped in and created a rendering of a full-size pickup truck that could theoretically replace the outgoing Titan. var adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:()}; adpushup.que.push(function() { if (adpushup.config.platform !== "DESKTOP"){ adpushup.triggerAd("4d84e4c9 -9937-4f84-82c0-c94544ee6f2a"); } else{ adpushup.triggerAd(" 6a782b01-facb-45f3-a88f-ddf1b1f97657"); } }); The illustrations cleverly retain design cues from the new Armada, while stretching the proportions just enough to mimic the Titan's stance.
