We’ll be completely honest and admit BMW took us by surprise when it launched the 2 Series Active Tourer in 2014. Just as unexpected was the decision to stick to the minivan for a second generation introduced in 2021. However, the family hauler experiment appears to be coming to an end. A new report claims […]
Strangely enough, I’ve had my fair share of nights spent around cars at this point. And no, I don’t mean drinking and driving – that’s about as stupid as it gets.

You’ve probably heard of the moose test that involves making evasive maneuvers to assess a car’s handling. Well, this is a different type of moose test, a more literal one.

I recently had the privilege of visiting Schubert Motorsport’s headquarters in Oschersleben, Germany, just as the team returned from their victorious 2024 DTM (Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters) season.
