Hyundai thought there was only one way to test their new Smart Caring safety system. What was that? Get their drivers to leap from moving cars of course.
Watch drivers one by one leap from the Hyundai cars onto a moving truck. Remarkably the cars keep on moving. Find out how in the video below:
The Land Rover Experience test a Range Rover Evoque to the extreme, producing a gravity-defying display in China’s biggest skate park.
Clearly showing this is more than just a Soccer Mom car…
This guy will do anything to be the ‘big man’ in town, even if it means risking his own life against a car in full throttle.
Watch him wrestle a car in order to prove his machoism. Man vs Car? Bets please…
Size Matters 2 breaks out the big guns with Gymkhana style truck drifting and jumping.
This is legendary stuff from the Pikes Peak champion Mike Ryan in the Banks Super-Turbo Castrol Freightliner, goes head-to-head with new kid on the block Daniel Leavitt on the docks of Long Beach harbor.
What makes this even better is that Hollywood’s top stunt drivers and producers came together to produce this buttock clenching action thriller that blow’s Ken Block’s Gymkhana out of the water.
Watch Size Matters 2 below with the volume turned up….
French daredevil driver, skier, and rally racer Guerlain Chicherit’s Guinness World Record jump attempt was promoted all around the world last week. Chicherit was aiming to surpass Tanner Foust’s 332-foot record with a 360-foot jump in a modified MINI Countryman rally car.
The jump, which took place this past Sunday, March 16, started well enough, with plenty of distance to clear the enormous gap. But the landing didn’t go so smoothly.

Toward the end of Chicherit’s flight, the MINI nosed down sharply, landing almost perpendicular to the ramp and cartwheeling down to a stop, resting on its side.
The wreck looks scary–and almost certainly was from Chicherit’s perspective–but fortunately he emerged from the MINI under his own power and has since been cleared by a precautionary MRI. He’s fine, apart from a few minor injuries.
Though the jump record attempt failed, Chicherit has already logged the world’s first “unassisted” car backflip–in another modified MINI rally car.

Lamborghinis certainly fly on the road, but for an event in New York City on January 30, they showed that they can hover, too. Lamborghini arranged to have a white 2014 Aventador Roadster and a Gallardo Super Trofeo Stradra Corse lifted by crane to the roof of a 12-story venue for the US$1,000-per-ticket Big Game Big Give Super Bowl charity party hosted by comedian Alec Baldwin on Friday, January 31.
The cars arrived at the Tribeca Rooftop on Wednesday night and were lifted by crane up to the venue in the wee hours of Thursday morning. Autoblog friend Ethan Stupp was there and received permission to photograph and film the cars being delivered.

If you are a fan of crazy stunts that involve cars, then you will love this one. It’s even better when their is absolutely no concern or safety limitations in place. Just a couple of guys, out in the wild, making a homemade contraption to get their SUV across a raging white water river! Awesome.
You have to take your hats off the these guys. Most would concede defeat and accept that there is no way across but staring danger in the face, they guys get creative and get freaking brave by creating a fully functional car-carrying zip line that could bear the weight of a full size wagon. Respect!
