Without a combination of our listeners and technology the Wheel Bearings podcast wouldn’t be possible. Unfortunately, sometimes technology fails us. As we were meandering to the finish line this week we had some connectivity failures so Sam had to wrap it up after losing Dan and Rebecca. Along the way we discussed the 2020 Lexus UX250h Luxury, Hyundai Venue, Subaru Ascent and Toyota Highlander.
For those that like driving small cars, something important has been missing from the Mini lineup for the past year or so, manual transmissions. Fortunately they are coming back later this year (assuming of course we get any new vehicles). Also potentially getting a manual is the next generation Mazda6 which will reportedly get a new inline-six with SkyActiv-X technology and rear-wheel-drive. Another rear-drive sedan that won’t get a manual is the all-new Genesis G80 with a striking new design. Finally the team discusses the delivery charges on new cars and answers a listener question about what is happening to the auto industry under the current crisis.
