The 2024 Subaru Solterra is nimble but sorely lacks range, personality

Slow charging and inefficient driving, Solterra is no electric WRX or Forester.

The refreshed 2024 Hyundai Elantra N remains a darn good enthusiast car

Good engine, great front-end feel, so-so manual gearshift, and under $34,000.

@arstechnica the nose looks too long and droopy. It looks untrustworthy, like it can help get me out of some trouble, but, it's going to cost me dearly. Shifty.

A Polestar Phone now inexplicably exists

Polestar normally makes electric cars, but now it's releasing a phone.

@arstechnica The companion app for the car is horrendously terrible. Very basic functionality, issues with even getting it to open at times, super slow to load and crammed with useless features (almost seems like they're there to take up space and make it seem bulkier). As a car owner and app user, I'm really happy to see they're focussing on a phone instead of - you know - me.

Side note - the car is beautiful and well made.
