After unveiling the X-Class Concept in 2016, Mercedes believed it would go on to make the world’s first true premium pickup truck, aimed at markets such as Europe, Latin America, Africa, and Australia. The X-Class was put into production the following year using a Nissan Navara chassis before being discontinued in early 2020 due to low sales. 7 photos

The Mercedes G-Class might be slowly turning into everyone’s favorite blank canvas when it comes to using various other designs from within the car industry to create whole new front fascias. It’s understandable, though, seeing as how the G-Class' boxy looks make it oh-so-easy for someone to simply copy-paste a new grille and headlights onto what is more or less a simple rectangular surface.

Ask any Porsche historian, and they’ll tell you that the 356 is one of the most iconic models ever produced by Porsche. It was Porsche’s first-ever production automobile, a car meant to be nimble and lightweight from the get-go. 10 photos
Built between 1948 and 1965, the Porsche 356 was available as a two-door coupe, two-door convertible, and a two-door roadster, featuring a rear-engine/rear-wheel drive setup. Four distinct series were made in the 356 A, 356 B, and finally the 356 C, all of them distinguished by various aesthetic upgrades.
This restomod, though, is a whole different beast. Designed by Bo Zolland, it is visibly larger than the original 356, with the two having been rendered side by side for good measure. The styling is also noticeably different. Here, we’re dealing with a wider and longer car, which almost looks more “Gotham City” as opposed to anything else. It’s very Art Deco, in a way.
Ahead of its launch in the coming days, German blog WinFuture has leaked official renders and complete specifications of the Samsung Galaxy A72 4G smartphone.
If there’s one carmaker that’s fully invested in creating ultra-stylish exterior and interior designs for their cars, it’s Volvo. The Swedish brand has been on a tear ever since Geely took over, having completely revamped its product lineup.
