2026 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy + XRT Pro | Live Reaction!
The 2026 Hyundai Palisade receives a significant update, aiming to redefine the family SUV segment. The reviewer highlights the bold new exterior desi... moregn, particularly praising the rear end, though initial impressions suggest it might be polarizing. Inside, the focus is on enhanced comfort and utility across all three rows, with features like motorized third-row seats, heated/ventilated seats in the first two rows, and a unique integrated dash cam. Two powertrain options are introduced: a 3.5L V6 (287 hp) and a new 2.5L hybrid (329 hp) targeting over 30 MPG and a 600-mile range. The XRT Pro trim stands out with off-road enhancements like an electronic rear limited-slip differential and increased ground clearance. While the reviewer appreciates the advancements, they note the V6 is less powerful than its predecessor and express concern over the discontinuation of complimentary maintenance for 2026 models. less
Everything I Like and Dislike About the Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid
The 2025 Toyota Grand Highlander Platinum Hybrid Max AWD is presented as a highly competitive midsize three-row SUV, excelling in its powerful Hybrid ... moreMax powertrain, spacious interior, and impressive cargo hauling capabilities. The reviewer highlights the instant torque and effortless acceleration from the 362 hp Hybrid Max system, along with the vehicle's significant utility for both passengers and cargo, even accommodating items over 8 feet long. The onboard 120V/1500W power outlet and excellent LED lighting, both interior and exterior, are also noted as significant advantages. However, the review points out several drawbacks, primarily concerning the real-world fuel economy, which falls short of the EPA ratings, averaging around 20-23 MPG instead of the advertised 26-27 MPG. Other criticisms include underwhelming ventilated seat performance, the absence of auto-dimming side mirrors, and the surprising lack of power-folding third-row and power-release second-row seats in a vehicle priced over $60,000. Additionally, inconsistent wireless Android Auto connectivity and limited center console knee room for front occupants are mentioned as minor annoyances. Despite these shortcomings, the reviewer concludes that the Grand Highlander remains a strong contender, especially for those prioritizing performance and utility, though the high price point means some expected premium features are missing. less
2025 Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid Max Platinum: Best Midsize 3 Row SUV?
The 2025 Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid Max Platinum AWD is presented as a fully-equipped, powerful, and spacious three-row SUV. The reviewer highligh... morets its strong performance from the Hybrid Max powertrain, delivering 362 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque, making it a fun-to-drive option in its segment. Cargo hauling capabilities and passenger space, particularly in the third row, are noted as significant strengths. The interior is described as premium with soft-touch materials and a good array of features, including heated/ventilated seats and a panoramic sunroof. However, the reviewer points out several drawbacks for a vehicle priced over $63,000, such as the lack of a power tilt/telescopic steering column and power-folding third-row seats, which are considered essential usable features missing at this price point. While generally positive about its comfort, power, and efficiency, these omissions detract from its overall value proposition. less
2026 Chevy Silverado EV Full Change List and Pricing | New Trail Boss Trim
The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV receives significant updates, including the discontinuation of the RST trim and the introduction of the off-road-focus... moreed Trail Boss. Pricing has been reduced across the board compared to the 2025 model year, making the electric truck more accessible. Key changes include a standard 17.7-inch infotainment system and 11-inch digital cluster across all trims, though this removes Android Auto and Apple CarPlay from Work Truck models. New LT trims (2LT, 3LT, 4LT) and Trail Boss variants (2TR, 3TR) offer revised packaging. Notably, air suspension and adaptive dampers are no longer available on any Silverado EV trim, being reserved for the GMC Sierra EV. Rear steering is now exclusive to the Trail Boss. Chevrolet Digital Key is introduced as a late availability feature. While the 4LT aims to fill the gap left by the RST, it omits features like four-wheel steering and air suspension. The reviewer highlights the increased value and variety in the lineup, particularly the well-equipped 2LT at a competitive price, while noting the reduced peak charging speed for standard range models. less
The Best Car Nobody Bought: Volvo V60 Polestar Wagon
The 2025 Volvo V60 Polestar is presented as a unique and highly capable performance wagon, sadly discontinued in the US market. The reviewer highlight... mores its impressive T8 plug-in hybrid powertrain, delivering 455 horsepower and achieving 0-60 mph in 4.3 seconds, with a commendable 39 miles of all-electric range. The manually adjustable Ohlins dampers are noted for providing a stiff but well-controlled ride, though comfort can be compromised over harsh bumps. Interior highlights include comfortable, premium seats, excellent visibility, and a superb Bowers & Wilkins audio system. However, the infotainment system is criticized for being clunky and less ergonomic than competitors, and the LED headlights offer adequate but not exceptional projection with some shadowing. Charging speed is also a drawback, limited to 3.3 kW, resulting in over 5 hours for a full charge. Despite these shortcomings and a high price point, the reviewer expresses regret over its discontinuation, praising its practicality, performance, and overall appeal as a special vehicle that was simply not bought by enough consumers. less
2025 Chevy Blazer EV SS First Drive
The 2025 Chevrolet Blazer EV SS delivers a significantly more engaging driving experience compared to its standard counterparts, living up to its perf... moreormance-oriented 'SS' designation. The reviewer highlights the substantial power increase, noting its impressive acceleration, though questioning if it precisely matches the 3.4-second 0-60 mph claim. Handling is described as a notable improvement, especially with the optional summer tires, and the reviewer appreciates the customizable drive modes, including a dedicated 'Z mode' and the 'Wide Open Watts' feature. A key positive is the standard inclusion of Super Cruise, which the reviewer found surprisingly functional on previously unsupported two-lane roads, indicating potential software improvements. The vehicle also boasts the larger 102 kWh battery, offering an estimated range of over 300 miles. While the infotainment lacks Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, the overall package is considered a strong performance bargain in the EV market, starting around $62,000. less
2025 Chevy Blazer EV SS: Best Value Performance SUV?
The 2025 Chevrolet Blazer EV SS is presented as a compelling performance-oriented SUV, finally arriving after a long anticipation. The reviewer highli... moreghts its significant power increase to 615 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque, enabling a 3.4-second 0-60 mph time with the 'Wide Open Watts' mode. Key features noted include the larger 102 kWh battery, 190 kW DC fast charging capability (though the charging curve is deemed not particularly great for road trips), and SS-specific Brembo brakes with gold calipers. The interior is largely familiar to the RS trim, featuring a digital gauge cluster, a large infotainment screen with Google integration, and comfortable Evotex seating. While the reviewer is impressed by the performance for the price point (starting around $61,995, with the tested model at $65,115), they also point out the continued use of the CCS charging port and the slower power flap. The reviewer suggests this SS variant might be the most recommendable in the Blazer EV lineup for its performance value, especially when considering potential tax credits, positioning it as a strong middle ground in the performance EV market. less
2025 Volvo V60 T8 Polestar Plug In Hybrid Range Test | Insane Results!
The 2025 Volvo V60 T8 Polestar Plug-In Hybrid is lauded as a rare and special vehicle, unfortunately discontinued and scarce in the market. The review... moreer highlights its exceptional handling and exhilarating driving experience, noting it as a "hoot to drive." The T8 powertrain, combining a 2.0L turbocharged engine with a rear electric motor, delivers a potent 455 horsepower and 523 lb-ft of torque. The standout feature is its electric-only range, significantly exceeding the EPA rating. In a real-world test covering a mixed-speed loop, the V60 Polestar achieved an impressive 48 miles on a single charge, surpassing its rated 39 miles and outperforming the XC60 T8 by over 8 miles. Positives include the powerful electric motor, engaging driving dynamics, and efficient coasting strategy that maximizes range. However, a notable drawback is the slow 3.25 kW Level 2 charging speed in North America, leading to lengthy charging times. Additionally, the reviewer experienced issues with Android Auto connectivity. Despite these minor gripes and its discontinuation, the V60 Polestar is highly recommended as a top-tier, performance-oriented daily driver and one of the best plug-in hybrids available. less
2025 Lexus NX450h PHEV Driving Review | Excellent Hybrid SUV!
The 2025 Lexus NX450h Plug-In Hybrid SUV is revisited, maintaining its appeal as a compact luxury SUV. The powertrain, a 2.5L four-cylinder with elect... moreric motors, delivers a combined 304 horsepower, offering brisk acceleration, especially in hybrid mode. The reviewer highlights the smooth transition between electric and gasoline power, a hallmark of Toyota/Lexus's hybrid expertise. Positives include a comfortable, plush ride quality, a well-appointed interior with a large infotainment system, and effective driver assistance technology. However, the reviewer notes the substantial price premium for the PHEV variant, with the tested model exceeding $66,000. Real-world all-electric range fell short of the 37-mile EPA estimate, partly attributed to roof rails. A significant drawback is the absence of a 120-volt outlet for onboard power, a feature present in other Toyota/Lexus PHEVs. Despite these points, the NX450h is praised for its refined driving experience and competitive features, provided the owner can fully utilize its plug-in capabilities. less
Everything I Like and Dislike About the 2025 Lexus NX
The 2025 Lexus NX 450h+ Plug-in Hybrid offers a compelling package with several notable strengths, including its attractive exterior and interior desi... moregn, a versatile powertrain availability, and user-friendly digital interfaces. The reviewer particularly praises the innovative door handle design, the functional and unique wireless charger placement, and the excellent automatic climate control for seats and steering wheel. The Mark Levinson audio system is highlighted as a worthwhile upgrade for audiophiles. Performance-wise, the plug-in hybrid variant provides a noticeable power boost over the standard hybrid, offering a more engaging driving experience and a respectable all-electric range of 34-37 miles. However, the vehicle is not without its drawbacks. The interior space, especially in the front seats, is noted as being narrow, potentially feeling cramped for taller or larger individuals. The telescopic steering wheel's outward travel is also deemed insufficient by the reviewer. A significant aesthetic complaint is the yellow tint of the sunroof, which negatively impacts the interior color perception. Furthermore, the absence of heated rear seats and onboard export power (120V outlet) in the plug-in hybrid model are identified as missed opportunities, especially when compared to other Lexus PHEVs. Despite these criticisms, the reviewer maintains a positive overall impression, considering the NX 450h+ a favorite among tested vehicles. less
2025 Lexus NX 450h Plug In Hybrid Range Test
The 2025 Lexus NX 450h Plug-In Hybrid was tested for its all-electric range, with the reviewer aiming to match the EPA's 37-mile rating. Despite ... morea mixed driving route including highway speeds and city driving, the NX 450h ultimately achieved 33.9 miles of electric-only range. This fell short of the advertised 37 miles and was surprisingly identical to the range achieved by the larger Lexus RX plug-in hybrid, which shares a similar powertrain. The reviewer noted potential factors like roof crossbars impacting aerodynamics and a slightly cooler ambient temperature compared to the RX test. While impressed with the vehicle's driving dynamics, power delivery, and competitive charging speed, the reviewer expressed mild disappointment in the electric range falling short of expectations and the competition. The NX 450h is considered a solid, competent option, but may not be the best in every metric, particularly for those seeking maximum electric range. less
2025 Lexus NX450h Plug In Hybrid Revisiting My First Press Car!
The 2025 Lexus NX 450h Plug-in Hybrid, presented in the Luxury trim and Nori Green exterior, revisits a familiar platform with the addition of plug-in... more capability. The reviewer highlights the familiar interior and exterior design from the 2023 model, noting minor updates for 2025 such as new interior color options and standard safety features. Key positives include the premium interior materials, the large infotainment screen with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, the configurable digital gauge cluster, and the smooth operation of the hybrid system. The reviewer also praises the intuitive parking assist and power liftgate. On the downside, the reviewer suggests heated rear seats would enhance the premium feel, and notes the cargo space might be slightly less than competitors like the Toyota RAV4 Prime. The plug-in hybrid system boasts a combined 304 horsepower and an estimated 37 miles of all-electric range, with real-world hybrid fuel economy expected to be around 35-40 MPG. The vehicle's MSRP, as tested, exceeds $66,000. less
2025 Chevy Equinox EV vs Cadillac Optiq | Side by Side Comparison!
The reviewer provides a detailed in-person comparison of the 2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV RS and the 2025 Cadillac Optiq, both built on GM's Ultium ... moreplatform. While the vehicles share core technology and battery capacity, the Optiq significantly surpasses the Equinox in terms of luxury, features, and overall value, despite a comparable price point. The Equinox RS, even when optioned up, is criticized for its less premium interior materials, basic audio system, and lack of certain comfort features like massaging seats and ambient lighting, which are standard or available on the Optiq. The reviewer highlights that for a slightly higher price, or even a similar price when comparing similarly equipped models, the Optiq offers a substantially more luxurious experience with features like a 19-speaker AKG audio system, enhanced lighting, and massaging seats. The reviewer's verdict is overwhelmingly in favor of the Cadillac Optiq, deeming it the superior value and the clear choice for those considering a compact electric SUV from GM. less
2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 SEL: Excellent Electric Family SUV?
The 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 SEL is presented as a compelling option for families seeking a spacious, fully electric three-row SUV. The reviewer highlight... mores its "Ionosphere Green" exterior and "Gray/Green H-Tex" interior as attractive features. Key positives include the promise of over 300 miles of range from its 110 kWh battery pack, regardless of drivetrain configuration (RWD or AWD), and the use of eco-friendly materials. The SEL trim offers a good balance of features without being fully loaded, including heated/ventilated front seats and a heated steering wheel. Practicality is emphasized with ample second and third-row space, manual sunshades, and a usable cargo area, even with the third row up. The reviewer notes the vehicle's premium feel, advanced LED lighting, and the potential for competitive pricing. A minor point of contention is the charge port location on the passenger rear, which might require specific parking at charging stations. Overall, first impressions are highly promising, with the reviewer eager to test drive and confirm range figures. less
2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 SEL AWD | Even Better For 2025!
The 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 SEL AWD receives a significant refresh, highlighted by the integration of the NACS (Tesla) charge port as standard, a major c... moreonvenience for accessing the Supercharger network. The vehicle also benefits from an upgraded 84 kWh battery pack across most trims, increasing range to an estimated 290 miles. Interior enhancements include new infotainment hardware and software (ccNC), wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, manual charge preconditioning, and a revised center console with a wireless charging pad and digital keypad. New features for the SEL trim include heated second-row seats, Digital Key 2 Premium, and an 8-way power passenger seat. While the reviewer praises these upgrades and the overall value proposition, they note persistent criticisms regarding the use of hard plastics on the door panels and armrests, especially at this price point. The reviewer also touches on the uncertainty surrounding federal tax credit eligibility for 2025 models, advising potential buyers to look into Hyundai's own incentives. less
2025 Chevy Equinox EV vs Cadillac Optiq: Feature & Pricing Breakdown!
This video provides a detailed comparison between the 2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV RS and the 2025 Cadillac Optiq, highlighting their shared platform and... more Ultium underpinnings. The reviewer emphasizes that while both vehicles offer similar core EV technology, the Cadillac Optiq presents a significantly better value proposition, especially when comparing similarly equipped models. Key advantages of the Optiq include standard features like Super Cruise, a premium AKG audio system, massaging seats, and enhanced lighting, many of which are either optional or unavailable on the Equinox EV RS. The reviewer notes that as the Equinox EV RS is optioned up, its price rapidly approaches that of the Optiq, making the Cadillac the more compelling choice due to its superior standard equipment and perceived higher quality interior materials and design. The video also touches on pricing, charging capabilities, and briefly compares the Optiq to the Blazer EV, concluding that the Optiq offers a more luxurious experience for a comparable price point to a loaded Equinox EV. less
2025 Toyota Camry XLE Driving Review | Best Hybrid Sedan?
The 2025 Toyota Camry XLE Premium Plus Hybrid AWD is reviewed as a highly refined and comfortable midsize sedan, maintaining its core strengths while ... moreembracing an all-hybrid powertrain. The reviewer praises the smooth transition between gas and electric power, the compliant ride quality, and the comfortable, aesthetically pleasing interior with good material usage and functional physical controls. Key drawbacks include the driver assistance system's eye-tracking camera being obstructed by the steering wheel, occasional spotty wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity, and the older USB-A port instead of USB-C for data. While the loss of the V6 engine is noted, the hybrid system delivers adequate power for daily driving and offers impressive fuel efficiency, though real-world figures were impacted by cold weather. The reviewer highlights the added benefit of the AWD system for traction in slippery conditions, though it comes at an additional cost. Overall, the Camry is presented as a reliable, well-rounded, and solid choice in its segment, especially for those prioritizing comfort and refinement. less
Everything I Like and Dislike About the 2025 Toyota Camry Hybrid
The 2025 Toyota Camry Hybrid XLE AWD is presented as a well-rounded midsize sedan, excelling in its smooth and refined hybrid powertrain, delivering g... moreood MPG, though not quite reaching EPA estimates in cold conditions. The AWD system, utilizing a rear electric motor, is noted as effective for propulsion. Positives include the impressive JBL premium audio system, a unique color-changing running light feature, and a comfortable interior with premium soft-touch materials, particularly in the XLE trim. However, several drawbacks are highlighted: the built-in dash cam's intrusive placement, excessively hot heated seats (even on lower settings), the absence of a remote start on the key fob (relying solely on the app), and a highly annoying driver attention monitor that frequently prompts the driver to sit up. Additionally, the door close sound is described as hollow, and the interior exhibits rattles and material flex, especially when the premium audio system is used at higher volumes, detracting from the overall experience given the vehicle's price point. less
2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid Driving Review
The 2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid, a collaboration with Toyota, offers a compelling package that blends Toyota's efficient hybrid powertrain with Mazda... more's signature driving dynamics and styling. The reviewer highlights the smooth, well-controlled ride and engaging handling, noting it feels sportier than many competitors. The interior is praised for its premium materials and thoughtful, traditional layout, though the reviewer finds the front seats firm, bordering on uncomfortable for long trips. A significant drawback is the omission of certain premium features found in the turbo models, such as a heated steering wheel and 360-degree camera, despite this being the Premium Plus trim. Performance is adequate but not a strong suit, with the hybrid system producing a noticeable buzz under hard acceleration. Real-world fuel economy in cold weather was around 25.1 MPG, significantly below the EPA estimates of 37-39 MPG, though warmer conditions are expected to yield much better results. Despite the packaging compromises and firm seats, the reviewer concludes positively, appreciating the competitive pricing and the CX-50's inherent character, making it a strong contender in the compact SUV segment. less
Everything I Like and Dislike About the 2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid
The 2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid Premium Plus presents a compelling blend of Toyota's reliable hybrid powertrain and Mazda's signature styling an... mored driving dynamics. The reviewer highlights the premium interior feel, excellent material quality, and the refined Toyota-sourced hybrid system (216 hp) as significant positives. The Bose audio system and the exceptionally reliable wireless Android Auto connection are also praised. However, the CX-50 Hybrid is not without its drawbacks. The reviewer notes firm seats and a firm ride, which, while contributing to sporty handling, may deter buyers seeking a more comfortable experience. A significant concern is the reduced rear-seat headroom and legroom due to the hybrid powertrain packaging. Furthermore, the hybrid model, even in the Premium Plus trim, lacks several desirable features found in the turbo models, such as steering-responsive headlights, parking sensors, and a 360-degree camera, which feels like a compromise at its price point. The absence of a heated steering wheel is also noted as a miss. Despite these compromises, the reviewer concludes that the CX-50 Hybrid is a very usable and competitive compact SUV, particularly for those prioritizing fuel economy over the turbo's performance and feature set, provided they can accept the packaging limitations. less
Everything I Like and Dislike About the Toyota Prius Prime
The reviewer found the 2024 Toyota Prius Prime SE to be a compelling package, particularly praising its driving dynamics and acceleration, noting the ... more220hp powertrain delivers a surprising 0-60 time of around 6.5 seconds. The standard six-speaker audio system also exceeded expectations for an entry-level trim. Driver assistance technology, including Toyota Safety Sense 3.0, was highlighted as a strong point, functioning very well. However, significant drawbacks were identified. The primary dislike is the steering wheel's placement, which obstructs the view of the digital instrument cluster, a design flaw the reviewer found hard to overlook. The absence of automatic headlights on the SE trim, despite having rain-sensing wipers, was also a point of contention, raising safety concerns due to the shared beam pattern between DRLs and low beams. Furthermore, the packaging of the SE trim was deemed peculiar, with features like proximity entry only on the driver's side and a heated steering wheel but no heated seats. Finally, the vehicle was noted to be slow to warm up the cabin in cold weather. Despite these criticisms, the reviewer suggests the XSE trim offers a more well-rounded experience and applauds Toyota for offering the base SE for review, deeming the Prius Prime a decent value proposition for those who can consistently charge and utilize the electric range. less
Toyota Prius Prime PHEV Range Test + Driving Review!
The 2024 Toyota Prius Prime SE offers a compelling blend of efficiency and driving dynamics, though its base trim presents some compromises. The revie... morewer found the acceleration impressive, thanks to the 220 hp total system output, and handling to be a highlight, describing the car as "nimble" and "fun to drive." However, the electric-only range test was significantly impacted by cold (28°F) and windy conditions, yielding 34.6 miles, a notable drop from the 45-mile EPA estimate, which the reviewer deemed "quite reasonable" given the circumstances. Interiorly, the SE trim is driver-focused, featuring a heated steering wheel but lacking heated seats and offering proximity entry only on the driver's side. A significant ergonomic issue is the placement of the digital cluster, which is partially obscured by the steering wheel, forcing a low steering wheel position. Connectivity with wireless Android Auto was intermittent. Despite these drawbacks, the reviewer praised the decent six-speaker audio system and the compliant ride quality on 17-inch wheels. The SE trim, priced just under $35,000, is seen as a realistic option for those who may not want or can afford higher trims, though the middle trim is suggested as a potential sweet spot. less
2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid Premium Plus | Premium, Efficient Compact SUV
The 2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid Premium Plus presents a compelling package, blending Mazda's upscale interior and design with Toyota's proven hy... morebrid powertrain. The reviewer highlights the attractive styling, enhanced ride height (though not ground clearance), and the premium feel of the interior, particularly the black and brown two-tone leather option. Key features include LED lighting, a panoramic sunroof, heated and ventilated front seats, and a well-integrated infotainment system controlled via a rotary dial. However, the hybrid variant sacrifices approximately 2 inches of rear legroom due to battery placement, a notable drawback for adult passengers. Additionally, this Premium Plus trim omits features found on the Turbo Premium Plus, such as a heated steering wheel and front/rear parking sensors. Despite these compromises, the CX-50 Hybrid is positioned competitively against rivals like the Tucson Hybrid, offering a more premium aesthetic for its price point. less
GoTrax Gx1 Review | Great Beginner Super Scooter?
The GoTrax GX1 presents itself as a capable beginner-friendly electric scooter, boasting dual 600W motors and a 15Ah battery. The reviewer highlights ... moreits robust acceleration and adjustable speed modes (15, 21, and 30 mph) as key strengths, particularly the boost function for quicker sprints. The suspension system is praised for its ability to handle mild to moderate bumps, a significant plus for less-than-perfect road conditions. The ergonomic thumb throttle and usable lighting system are also noted as positives. However, the GX1 is not without its drawbacks. The mechanical disc brakes are excessively noisy, and the reviewer experienced a wobbly, unbalanced front tire out of the box, requiring potential professional service. A creaking tiller was also noted, though seemingly resolvable with adjustment. The parking mode's auto-activation and the speedometer's inaccurate reading in slower modes are significant annoyances. Despite these issues, the reviewer finds the GX1's performance impressive for its price point, offering a real-world range of approximately 15-20 miles. It's recommended for those with single-family homes who don't need to frequently transport the scooter due to its substantial weight (nearly 75 lbs). less
