If you remember a while back, the Tesla Model S and the BMW i3 were being compared by the Los Angeles Police Department. Eventually, the BMW i3 won the battle, and 100 will soon be added to the administrative fleet. But the LAPD is looking to add an electric vehicle with longer range and quicker acceleration for patrol use...so the Tesla Model S is back on the table.

McLaren has officially launched their Pure McLaren Artic Experience in the Arctic Circle. The experience consists of ice driving, fine dining, snowmobile rides, and plenty of other cold-weather activities. However, there is a $15,000 pricetag for the three-day adventure.

If you are looking for something to listen to while driving home tonight, consider the amazing episode of The Adam Carolla Show where Carolla interviews Richard Hammond, Jeremy Clarkson, and James May. The show consists of 40 minutes of the quartet talking about The Grand Tour and Top Gear.
