Nissan has released a new video detailing its refreshed product line-up for the near future, and there’s a surprising treat in there for sports car fans: its next Z Car.

Famed niche German car manufacturer Ruf has released a new documentary film covering its 80-year history. The “Love at the Red Line” film tells the rather unusual story of the Ruf family business’s origins under Alois Ruf, with extensive interviews with current company owners Alois Ruf Jr and his wife Estonia.

Back in June 2018, Nissan and Italdesign came up with a very special birthday gift to themselves. Jointly celebrating 50 years of the Italian design house and the GT-R name, the two brands collaborated on a one-off vehicle: the Nissan GT-R50.

The F1 world is in quite some disarray right now, with races cancelled and postponed all over the place. It’s all just got a little bit more chaotic with an extremely early start to the “silly season” of driver contracts, as Ferrari and Sebastian Vettel have jointly announced they are to part ways at the end of this season — before the first race of the season.

Gran Turismo’s ‘Vision Gran Turismo’ project has provided us with many weird and wonderful cars. Since the scheme first started, back with 2013’s Gran Turismo 6, we’ve seen automotive brands clamor to have their concept cars included. Some have even come back for a second attempt and, it turns out, Bugatti was one of those brands.

A gang of car thieves in New Zealand have staged a brazen car heist of a barely believable magnitude. Apparently working in teams, the crew made off with almost 100 vehicles over the course of a long weekend.

Subaru has given us a glimpse into one possible Gran Turismo future with an unusual promotional video. The clip is part of the worldwide “Stay Home” message campaign, and features Subaru factory GT300 driver Takuto Iguchi playing a racing game that looks quite like GT Sport — at least on the surface.

While GT Academy produced a number of successful racing drivers over the years, they all focused on a single discipline: circuit racing. One thing it never produced was a rally champion, but that might be about to change.

When racing games become a serious hobby there’s all manner of equipment you can buy to enhance your experience and ability. There’s fancy wheels and pedals, games-oriented displays, and driving rigs to which you can mount them all.

Although it didn’t top our staff poll for best Gran Turismo game, GT4 is nonetheless among the best — and best-remembered. Like GT2, its large and wild car list introduced the world to all sorts of bizarre machines that hadn’t twitched the needle beyond their own circles.

It’s been pretty hard to miss that there’s no motorsport on the TV right now. With teams, drivers, broadcasters, and fans all stuck at home, racing is impossible. The virtual world has been filling in, but there’s only so much it can do.

The virtual world hasn’t proven the best place for some racing drivers to ply their trade recently. Last weekend, NASCAR Cup Series driver Bubba Wallace lost a real world sponsor for his behavior on the digital track. This week it’s Kyle Larson, who’s one-upped Wallace by getting suspended by both his team and NASCAR itself.

If you’re stuck indoors with your kids right now, and need something for them to do, Rolls-Royce might have the answer to your prayers.

A little while ago, we wondered what the greatest ever movie car was. It came off the back of an odd poll in a press release from Hyundai and we figured we could do better. GTPlanet users picked their favorites and voted for a final 32, which went to a series of Twitter votes which we called The World Cup of Movie Cars.

If you’re a Fast and Furious franchise fan, you might be down in the dumps right now. As well as finding yourself cooped up indoors, the latest entry in the blockbuster film series, Fast and Furious 9, won’t even be in cinemas until next year thanks to a coronavirus-influenced delay.
