At $500, this is one of the more affordable offerings from Traeger, built with the same quality and durability as its entire catalog. The Irontop 2-Burner Griddle will be available for purchase starting May 15th.
RivianRivian R2 Launched in 2027
Rivian is preparing to launch its most important car in years, and that is its new, mid-size R2. To commemorate its arrival, Rivian has recently revealed the R2 Launch Package. It starts life as one of the Performance high-spec options, which includes a dual-motor electric drive system that pumps out a total of 656 horsepower and 609 pound-feet of torque, and a semi-active suspension for more road-hugging power. But Rivian further differentiates the R2 Launch Package by including the company’s Autonomy+ hands-free semi-autonomous highway assistant for life (it’s a subscription feature otherwise), an optional Launch Green exterior with the same Special Rivian Green anodized key, and a Tow Package as standard (which enables up to 400-lb). Rivian hasn’t revealed pricing yet, but sales will begin later this spring.
Bell & RossBell & Ross BR-03 Steel Green
Bell & Ross’s BR-03 may be the brand’s only metal-based watch, with a design inspired by airplane cockpit gauges, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be beautiful. As proof, the brand offers the BR-03 Green Steel, which adds a brilliant green sunburst dial to the beautiful BR-03’s stainless steel “square circle”. The look is equal parts luxe and practical, with two fitted straps, one in black leather and the other in black fabric, reflecting the dual nature of the watch.
LogitechLogitech G512 X gaming keyboard
The Logitech G512 X is the company’s new gaming keyboard, and it’s its most advanced and customizable model yet. It is unique because it is the first keyboard of the brand with dual switching technology, which supports both mechanical and analog switching. It is also integrated with TMR (Tunnel Magneto Resistance) sensor technology, which allows players to map actions based on key press depth. According to the brand, this makes it “ideal for flight sims, racing titles, and tactical shooters where millimeter accuracy is the difference between victory and defeat.” The G512 X is available in both 75- and 98-inch configurations, and comes in black or white finishes.
Duck campDuck Camp Coastal Seersucker Shirt Short Sleeve
As we head into summer and the temperatures rise, this stylish button-down collar shirt meets the times with a 78% polyester/22% cotton seersucker blend that’s naturally light, breathable and quick-drying. Available in Navy Blue, Moss and Birch colors, the quietly technical garment also offers pull-down chest pockets with button closures, microfiber sunglasses chammy at the bottom of the shirt and a back pleat for added mobility (your minigolf game will thank you).
CaterhamCaterham Seven Miami Special Edition
Just in time for the Miami GP, Caterham revealed a limited edition version of the Seven R known as the Miami Special Edition. As you’d expect from the name, this means it’s decked out in plenty of South Beach-inspired visuals, like bold aqua paint and eye-catching pink stripes. However, because it is based on the Seven R, this Caterham is not just a looker. Under the hood, the track-only rocket packs a 2.0-liter Ford Duratec with 207 horsepower and 150 lb-ft of torque. And, because the Seven R tips the scales at 1,235 pounds, that’s enough for 0-60 mph to come in under 4.0 seconds. Only 12 examples are set for production.
