Dodge Demon 170, Hummer EV SUV and electric Ford Explorer: top photos of the week

The 2023 Dodge Demon 170 puts an exclamation point on the end of the Detroit automaker's muscle car era, making 1,025 hp and sprinting from 0-60 mph in 1.66 seconds and the quarter mile in the 8-second range. The Demon 170 will go down in history as the ultimate factory muscle car. [I test drove the 2023 Genesis Electrified GV70 and found it to be superior to the Tesla Model Y in every way except range and charging network. With its attractive design, authentic buttons and knobs, and solid build, the GV70 is the future of luxury automakers.

The debut of the Kia EV5 Concept offered a glimpse of the potential successor to the electric Sportage. This small electric crossover SUV concept features swivel seats in both the first and second rows, a full-length panoramic sunroof that doubles as a solar panel, and sustainable interior materials.

We drove the 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV and learned that it is an inefficient, attention-grabbing, electric powerhouse.

Hyundai unveiled its EV charging robot. The prototype is being tested at the automaker's R&D facility and is part of an outdoor charging station to experience real-world weather conditions.

Chevrolet announced that it will end the 6th generation Camaro after 2024. The automaker confirmed that this is not the end of the nameplate, opening the door for an electric vehicle revival. It is unclear whether the next-generation Camaro will be a sports sedan or a crossover SUV.

Ford has announced an electric Explorer for Europe. The EV, which reskins Volkswagen's ID.4, is unrelated to the Explorer sold in the US and will not be coming across the pond. The US will have its own electric Explorer in a few years.
