White Lines, blue skies, Kiwi summer roadies are baaaack, baby! š
While Omicron did its best to steamroll our road trip plans last summer, this year weāre making up for lost time. Festivals are back, the beach is calling and weāre fresh out of excuses not to drive four hours to see the in-laws at Christmas. š š¤¶ Yep, itās time to crank up the ultimate summer road trip playlist and get the wheels rollinā.

In the race for all-electric vehicles (EVs), the companies are laps behind competitors like Tesla (TSLA). Ferrari expects to introduce its first EV in 2025, while Lamborghini is aiming for 2028. Until then, the cars might be as elusive as our search for Goody Goody Gum Drops ice cream this summer. š¦
