SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 9, 2026 – BMW is bringing the new iX3 to CES 2026 as a showcase for what the brand says is its next chapter in electric driving, digital comfort, and in-car intelligence. The headline moment is the first public demo of an enhanced, AI-powered BMW Intelligent Personal Assistant with Alexa+ technology, paired with the new BMW Panoramic iDrive and BMW Operating System X. For everyday drivers, this isn’t just “future tech on a stage” energy—it’s a preview of how your next car could talk to you more naturally, entertain you while parked, and charge faster, while BMW says these Neue Klasse technologies are set to spread across a wide slice of its lineup by 2027.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 9, 2026 – BMW says it will expand the BMW Intelligent Personal Assistant in 2026 using Amazon’s AI Alexa+ architecture, aiming to make in-car voice conversations feel more natural and useful—especially when you’re driving and don’t want to tap through menus. The upgraded assistant is set to debut in the new BMW iX3 and is planned to be available in Germany and the U.S. at market launch in 2026, with a public presentation planned at CES 2026 in Las Vegas. For drivers, the big promise is simple: fewer rigid commands, more normal conversation, and an assistant that can help with both vehicle functions and general knowledge in one flow.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 27, 2025 – Ferretti Yachts has launched the first unit of its refreshed 720 flybridge yacht, built at the brand’s new Ravenna production site—and the very first yacht off the line is destined for the American market.

A New Chapter From Ravenna, Built For Real Life On The Water

The first Ferretti Yachts 720 in this newly redesigned version was launched in November at the Ferretti Group shipyard in Ravenna, a modern facility spanning 100,000 square metres. That detail matters because a production site isn’t just a factory—it’s where a brand’s priorities show up in fiberglass, glass, and finish. In this case, the message is clear: the 720 is being shaped around comfort, smarter space, and that calm, settled feeling of being “at home,” even when you’re miles from shore.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 8, 2025 – The legendary Mercedes-Benz G-Class is about to add an extra dose of drama to its already iconic presence, as an all-new open-top version begins real-world testing on roads and test tracks in Europe. This upcoming model promises to combine the unmistakable G-Class silhouette with the pure joy of open-air driving, creating a luxury off-roader that feels equally at home cruising city streets or climbing into the mountains.

A New Chapter for an Off-Road Icon

For decades, the G-Class has been known for its boxy design, solid stance and go-anywhere attitude. Now, Mercedes-Benz is taking that formula and literally opening it up. Following an extremely positive reaction to the first teaser, the brand is sending camouflaged prototypes of the open-top G-Class into the world for rigorous testing.
