Ferrari Luce – The Prancing Horse’s First EV… What The Hell Is This SH!T?!

The new 2027 Ferrari Luce EV has over 1,000bhp, four motors and a £400,000-plus price tag… but has Ferrari completely forgotten how to make a beautiful car?

Ferrari has officially revealed its first fully electric production car, the all-new Ferrari Luce EV, and honestly, I bewildered and apoplectic with rage. This is the company that gave us the Ferrari F40, Testarossa, 288 GTO, Dino, Daytona, 308 and 458 Italia. Cars that looked like rolling works of art. Cars that made grown adults weak at the knees and children plaster posters across bedroom walls. And now… this.

Are Modern Cars Too Fast for Public Roads?

Family SUVs and electric crossovers now hit 60mph quicker than yesterday’s supercars, and that should make all of us pause

Here’s a slightly terrifying thought. Your neighbour’s school-run SUV may now be quicker to 60mph than the poster cars many of us grew up worshipping. That sounds ridiculous, until you look at the numbers. A Tesla Model S Plaid claims 0-60mph in 1.99 seconds. The MG4 XPower, a relatively affordable electric family hatchback, does 0-62mph in 3.8 seconds. The Polestar 4 Long Range Dual Motor hits 60mph in 3.7 seconds, while the Hyundai IONIQ 5 N manages 0-62mph in 3.4 seconds. Even petrol has joined the madness, with the Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT claiming 0-60mph in 3.1 seconds.

Ferraris, Fumes & Feeling Burnt Out – BCG Therapy with Sy of Drivers Union

We talk burnout, classic vs new cars, event ticket prices, and why car culture still matters – even when it feels like it’s slipping away.

This week’s BrownCarGuy Therapy Session is one of the realest yet. No fluff, no filters – just a proper sit-down between me and Sy from Drivers Union, talking about the realities of being in the car world in 2025. We kicked off with the pressures of creating car content. Sy, also a brilliant automotive photographer, and me, running BrownCarGuy on YouTube, both know the hustle: hours of editing, planning, shooting, posting – and often, the payoff? Barely a blip. Creating content in a saturated space can feel like shouting into the void, and the mental toll is real.

It’s Not Easy being a Brown Car Guy!

Very special and hilarious episode about the trauma, trials & tribulations of being a #BrownCarGuy

A very special, and hilarious, episode in which I talk about the unique challenges, particularly for me, in being a car guy as a brown or Asian person, and then on top of that, to actually (through blind determination and ignoring all the naysayers) choose to forge a career in automotive and motoring media and journalism, and still be struggling with that choice to the present day. I reveal funny episodes involving a Ferrari F40 and Samosas and ponder what I’d look like in other professions.
