Watch – Megane 275 vs Civic R on track

Honda makes some bold claims of the Civic Type R’s on-track performance, but how does the model fare on track against one of evo’s favourite hot hatchbacks?

BMW i8 and Apple watch – connectivity review

i8

It’s one of the most technologically advanced products on the market and a real hit in Silicon Valley. Not the Apple Watch, but BMW’s i8 plug-in hybrid sports car.

Actually, the watch isn’t short on technology either, and the i8’s smartphone app allows a degree of Apple Watch control. This is what you can expect from the high-tech pairing.
