2024 Toyota Grand Highlander, Ford F-150 Lightning, Audi in F1: The Week of Strikes Back

The 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander begins testing, the Ford F-150 Lightning proves faster than promised, and Audi announces a deal with Formula One. This article includes the "Motor Authority of the Week."

The 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander begins public road testing. We don't know exactly what Toyota's large three-row seat will look like, covered in camouflage. Expect the design to resemble the current Highlander.

Ken Block trolled around Las Vegas in the one and only Audi S1 E-Tron Quattro Funitron in "Electrikhana." The video is the latest in the rally driver's "Gymkhana" series and adds a new twist with an electric car as the star.

The Ford F-150 Lightning turned out to be faster than the Blue Oval had originally advertised. Ford CEO Jim Farley tweeted that the electric pickup truck, powered by a long-range battery, can sprint from 0-60 mph in less than 4.0 seconds.

Volvo unveiled the dashboard of its EX90 electric SUV. Featuring a clean, horizontal design with a digital meter cluster and portrait-style touchscreen, the dashboard is an evolution of the one found on the current XC90.

Audi announced a partnership with Sauber, which will compete in the Formula 1 World Championship in 2026. Audi will replace Alfa Romeo as Sauber's partner, but the deal was already set to end at the end of the 2023 season.
