Porsche Vision 357, Audi Active Sphere Top photo of the week.

Porsche celebrates this week the 75th anniversary of the registration of its first sports car, the 356 known as the No. 1. To mark this anniversary, Porsche imagined what the 356 would look like if it were designed today. The result is the beautiful Vision 357 concept.

Audi also presented a new concept called Activesphere. It combines elements of a coupe, a crossover, and a pickup truck.

The Honda Pilot will be redesigned for 2023, and part of the new lineup is a rugged TrailSport grade that benefits from some real off-road modifications. This week we tested it both on-road and off-road.

The latest BMW M3 spawned a hardcore CS version this week. It will be available in limited quantities later this year.

BMW's semi-official tuner Alpina also revealed new versions of its B5 super sedan and wagon. With a maximum output of 625 hp, it is Alpina's most powerful model ever.

Ford was spotted testing its first model based on the MEB platform designed for Volkswagen Group's mainstream electric vehicles. The model is a compact crossover that will share much in common with the MEB-based Volkswagen ID.4.

A Porsche Taikan with many features designed to enhance its circuit performance was also spotted this week. This sighting lends credence to rumors of a new performance flagship as part of the Tycann series.

And finally, Yukon, Oklahoma-based Finale Speed revealed a custom 1969 Chevrolet Camaro that took 3,000 hours to build. Much of that time was spent on a body made entirely of prepreg autohardened carbon fiber that is claimed to meet OEM quality standards.
