About this episode
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.
