This week, Dan and Sam discuss the Volvo XC60 and Hyundai Elantra Eco in the garage. From there we dive into Hyundai’s next big thing, the Ioniq dedicated electrified vehicle platform that launches in December.

We finish up with a discussion of whether the car market has peaked.   Wheel Bearings has launched a Patreon.
