2023 Ford F-150 Raptor R, Nissan Z Nismo, 2024 Range Rover Evoque: today's automotive news

We drove the 2023 Ford F-150 Raptor R and found that while it lines up with the Ram TRX on paper, the actual truck is different. Whereas the Ram TRX is always wired, the Raptor R features a split personality and is more dynamic due to its quieter exhaust and ability to remap the throttle to a more relaxed state. The Raptor R also doesn't give up any of the F-150's tricks when it comes to getting the job done.

The Nissan Z Nismo was finally revealed in a teaser video announcing its debut this summer. With a milder body kit (for a Nismo model), more power from the turbocharged engine, and race car-like thin Recaro sport seats, the Nismo is a worthy upgrade to the Z. While the grille and headlights highlight the exterior changes, the interior is a bit more dramatic, with a new center console offering more usable space JLR (formerly Jaguar Land Rover) has upgraded the Evoque's infotainment system with an 11.4-inch curved touchscreen and upgraded it with the latest software.
