There is one day out of the year when public relations professionals have permission to lie to journalists and to the public: April Fools’ Day. Manufacturers release details about wild, weird and wacky new technology,
and services. Some take it to obvious outlandish extremes (
Sedan anybody?), while others plot to mislead with products that are just outside the realm of possibility. Check out all the “jokes” below.
BMW Motorrad
doesn’t want to exclude anybody from experiencing the thrill of high-level racing, so it is introducing ‘iRace” autonomous programming on its S 1000 RR sport bike. It includes beginner, sportsman, advanced and unlimited driving modes, and stores
information for all Superbike world championship tracks.
Hyundai
is wrong for this. The Hyundai N Roadster is the work of
designer Yeonjoon Park and features a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, rear-wheel drive and a hard convertible top. Hyundai says this is a “concept (for now),” but we think it’d make a seriously great
Miata competitor.
Honda
wins the award for the best interactive gimmick, as its press release for the ’90s-inspired special-edition Pastport includes a live hotline number with a message from Fred Savage. Call 1-833-PASTPORT for more information.
Jeep
Put the
face on the
‘s body, and voilà! The 2019 Jeep Sedan is born. We can’t decide if the name or the rendering is better.
Land Rover
Accessibility to charging ports is of major concern to anybody with a plug-in vehicle. So, with the recent launch of the
P400e and
P400e,
is putting forth an effort to install more stations around the globe. First up is Scotland’s Isle of Skye. Adventurers need juice too!
Lexus Australia
Lexus expands its
service to include doggos. The new service, called Enpaw, will take pups to luxury boarding kennels in style.
Toyota U.S.
Toyota created the
Adventure pickup for “those who want to tell their friends they own a truck but never veer off pavement.” It’s part
, part
, 100 percent ute and it looks … great? Creating a new segment might be all fun and games to Toyota, but Ford is reportedly considering a
in a similar, albeit larger, style.
Toyota Australia
Toyota is launching a new HiAce van, and it’s already getting a limited-edition variant called the PieAce. The soft-top convertible van can be ordered in four orientations: two-seat long wheelbase, two-seat super-long wheelbase, five-seat long wheelbase, or 12-seat super-long wheelbase. No matter the amount of people in the van, there is pie for all, thanks to a built-in oven in the rear tailgate.
BONUS: Tesla
likely thinks he could legitimately be a pop star, but his Harambe-themed track was released awfully close to April Fools’ Day.
