This week, Nicole has been driving the refreshed 2025 Hyundai Tucson in the New Hampshire cold while Robbie enjoyed some unseasonably warm bay area weather with the Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet. Sam was pleasantly surprised with the efficiency and value of the new VW Jetta.
In the news, Nicole and Sam have a first drive report on the new Jeep Wagoneer S EV. Ram confirms a midsize pickup will be built in Belvidere, Ill. in 2027 and Cadillac launches its first electric V model, the Lyriq-V. The new national electrical code could be a problem for anyone that wants to install a level 2 EV charger with a plug. Clarios has an interesting new 12V battery with an integrated supercapacitor. Apple has wiped the claims that next-gen Carplay will launch in 2024 from its website and Ford has promised dealers more affordable models.
