The team is back on track this week with Nicole spending in time in the new 2021 Kia Sorento X-Line, while Robbie tries out a couple of fundamentally different cars, the McLaren GT and the redesigned, hydrogen powered Toyota Mirai. Sam finished up his two week Hellcat stint with the one-year only Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat.
In the news, the UK government is moving to legallize Level 3 conditionally automated vehicles that allow drivers to go hands off and eyes off the road. Colin Chapman’s classic Lotus 7 is still being produced by Caterham and now the company is looking at how to electrify it. Finally, Sam got a deep dive into the battery-powered 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning and shares his thoughts on what it can do.
