Aptera Employees Destroy Prototype Electric Vehicles On Camera
Maybe the staff at Aptera watched the printer-smashing scene in Office Space too many times and felt like taking some frustration out on inanimate objects.

Subaru BRZ Commercial Is Corny, Sentimental [VIDEO]
Anyone who has seen Japanese car commercials knows they can be a bit odd, to say the least. The 1990’s were chock full of weird celebrity endorsments (Jodie Foster and the Honda Civic, anyone?) but the next trend to hit was having directors treat their ads like art house films – and it’s here to…

MINI Coupe Hits Iceland, Rio And Hong Kong In New Ads [Video]
