Electric sports cars are officially here. The enduring question is whether or not this new hybrid obsession will spell the end of classic (low weight plus big engine) performance cars. I don’t now, but Chris Harris has a better idea of what the future holds than I do. He got to take the latest 918 […] More »

The Drive channel on YouTube is coming back with new content soon. That means more videos of Chris Harris doing huge smoky power slides with expensive cars, more videos of tuner masterpieces courtesy of Matt Farah, and more cool car stories courtesy of Driven.
