YouTuber Tony Angelo is building his own version of the GMC Syclone, a sought-after performance truck, using a Chevy S10 as the base. He sourced the necessary AWD parts from a 1994 Chevy Astro van and added a turbo kit to the 4.3-liter V6 engine. Angelo plans to run a carburetor instead of fuel injection. Despite some challenges, he is determined to complete the build and create a true Syclone experience.
Hyundai has revealed the updated 2024 Sonata, which features a bold design inspired by the Kona and a new hood with more pronounced character lines. The facelifted Sonata also has a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and infotainment screen housed within a panoramic curved display. The 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder is expected to come standard and replace the turbocharged 1.6-liter offered in some markets, and all-wheel drive will be available for the first time in the Sonata's history. The 2024 Sonata will be unveiled at the Seoul Mobility Show and likely make its first appearance in the US at the New York International Auto Show.
Mechanical engineer Tim Roman is converting a 2017 Ford Mustang GT S550 into an all-wheel-drive (AWD) vehicle. Roman has previously converted a Merkur XR4Ti to AWD and put a 5.0-liter turbocharged Ford V8 into the car. The Mustang project is a grind to find all the right parts to get power to the front wheels. Roman has documented the entire process on his YouTube channel. He plans to add twin turbos or a supercharger to the Mustang once the AWD conversion is complete.
