Porsche is releasing the most potent iteration of the well-known mid-engined roadster yet: the new Porsche 718 Spyder RS, thirty years after the Boxster concept vehicle was unveiled. The high-revving, naturally aspirated 911 GT3 engine is being used in an open-topped, mid-engined sports car for the first time. The 718 Spyder RS is the 718 Cayman GT4 RS‘s open-top sibling.
Exterior
The new Porsche 718 Spyder RS and 718 Cayman GT4 RS both have very identical front ends. The front bonnet that comes standard is composed of CFRP (carbon fibre-reinforced plastic) and has a sizable air exit above the bumper. The Cd (drag coefficient) value is unaffected while the two NACA vents improve brake cooling.
The bumper’s side-blades at the ends increase downforce. Because the 718 Cayman GT4 RS’s huge rear wing and slightly shorter front spoiler lip produce more total downforce on the Cayman, a larger front spoiler lip is needed to establish aerodynamic balance. The 718 Spyder RS has a stunning tear-off edge resembling a ducktail in place of a wing. According to Porsche, every element of aerodynamics is carefully coordinated. They guarantee maximum driving stability at high speeds while preserving the car’s aerodynamic balance.

Would you want a self-driving Ferrari? We wouldn’t. No matter how developed the technology is for autonomous driving, we would never want it in a supercar or hypercar. It can remain in Teslas but a self-driving Ferrari is just utter rubbish.
Ferrari has a long history of producing supercars that people desire to drive, making it the most well-known supercar company in the world. According to The Drive, Benedetto Vigna, CEO of Ferrari, was forthright about the automaker’s position on autonomous vehicles (AVs).

Tesla has introduced a high-performance RM88,830 ‘Track Package’ for its Model S Plaid sedan, enabling it to reach the promised 322 km/h when it was first unveiled two years ago.
Although Tesla claims the ‘standard’ Model S Plaid’s three electric motors can produce up to 1019 horsepower and 1424 Nm, good for a predicted top speed of 322km/h, it has been speed-limited at 262km/h when it debuted in the US in 2021, and later to 282km/h.

The time has come for the Mercedes-Benz CLS to rest. According to Car and Driver, the coupe-like sedan’s production will come to an end on August 31.
Currently, Mercedes has no plans to replace the current-generation CLS after the end of production in August, thus 2023 will be its final model year. Even if the CLS got a minor redesign as recently as 2022, the timeframe of the CLS’s premature end coincides with the E-class sedan’s preparation for a new generation.
