A convertible is like a motorcycle with two extra wheels. Without a permanent roof, there is no need for windows, dome lights, or stress. To make a long story short, convertibles are cool. Maybe even too cool. They are attractive. They put wind in your hair. They make tall people feel at home. They even provide light where the sun don’t shine. There is only one downside to the convertible; not enough electricity. There is only one fully-electric convertible in the United States. Can you guess what it is? Read the rest of this entry

The newest addition to this list is the 2018 smart electric drive coupe, coming to the United States in less than six months. Read the rest of this entry

When Mercedes-Benz and AMG® officially got hitched in 1999, something happened. Something magically dangerous. Sure, AMG® was founded by two Mercedes-Benz engineers and worked closely with Mercedes-Benz since the 1960s, but still, it’s a different company, and it still counts. After 1999, Mercedes-Benz AMG® vehicles went from fast to insane. In fact, most AMG® vehicles after 2000 are simply too responsive for someone who just needs to get to work.
