What better way for a once-defunct British brand to stage a comeback than with a state-of-the-art, tech-laden, and fast electric vehicle? That’s exactly what Austin Motor Company is aiming for with its new Arrow Roadster EV. Except, in truth, it’s not especially tech-laden, and it won’t exactly pin you back in your seat with speed.

Weeks before Ford revealed its solid-built, winter-ready Nugget High Roof last month, it put an even more ready-for-anything Nugget on show. This one was prepared with the help of German off-road specialist Terranger and retail partner Ford Nugget Store before powering into one of the world's largest overland and 4x4 shows at the start of summer. You won't find this axe-wielding mini adventure rig at the Ford dealership next to traditional Westfalia-made Nuggets, but it is available to buy as a turnkey 4x4 camper van complete with the same three-room interior Nugget owners and admirers adore.

This latest study of more than 33,000 patients supports earlier evidence that emerged in a 2015 Australian trial.

"A Lamborghini supercar of the sea" – you might be surprised to note that such a vessel already exists, a fantastical daydream born in the frustratingly idle days of pandemic. But that doesn't mean there can't be more than one, and the latest is technically more of a "Lamborghini micro-supercar for sea and subsea," a little adventure toy that can be carried aboard the larger sea-bound Lambo. The Italian sports car marque has teamed with German e-PWC specialist Cayago to develop what it calls the "most powerful Seabob ever," a grab-and-go personal jet sled that promises exhilaration on and under the water at speeds that compete with various species of shark and dolphin.

A daily cocoa extract supplement rich in flavanols appears to reduce age-related inflammation, according to new results from the largest study of its kind to date. The findings add biological support to earlier evidence that cocoa flavanols may help protect the heart, and hint at how the plant compounds influence the aging process by dialing down "inflammaging."

Horse Powertrain wasn't the only automotive supplier showing an efficiently packaged range-extender engine system at this year's IAA Mobility Munich show, which wrapped up over the weekend. German component builder Mahle took a short break from pushing out compact, torque-maximizing ebike motors to reveal a small, high-efficiency multi-fuel engine-generator it says is ready to deliver hybridized driving ranges up to 838 miles (1,350 km), about double that of some of today's longest-range battery electric vehicles.
