2024 GMC Hummer EV 3X SUV Off-Road | Did I Get This 9,000 lb. Vehicle Stuck?

2024 GMC Hummer EV 3X SUV Off-Road | Did I Get This 9,000 lb. Vehicle Stuck?

The 2024 GMC Hummer EV 3X SUV is put to the test in challenging off-road conditions, showcasing its impressive capabilities despite its immense size a... nd weight. The reviewer highlights the vehicle's exceptional maneuverability, largely attributed to its four-wheel steering and Crabwalk feature, which allows it to navigate tight trails with surprising agility. The adjustable air-ride suspension, multiple drive modes, and robust underbody protection are praised for enhancing its off-road prowess. However, the vehicle's sheer 9,000 lb weight and 87-inch width are noted as significant factors, particularly in slick mud, where maintaining traction becomes a challenge. The reviewer expresses surprise at the lack of power up/down for the windows, an unexpected oversight in a six-figure vehicle. Despite the mud and challenging terrain, the Hummer EV SUV impressively conquers obstacles, proving its off-road readiness, though the reviewer emphasizes the need for careful navigation due to its dimensions. less
2025 Mazda CX-70 First Drive with Female Consumer

2025 Mazda CX-70 First Drive with Female Consumer

The 2025 Mazda CX-70 is introduced as a sportier, two-row alternative to the CX-90, sharing its platform but differentiating itself with black exterio... r accents and a focus on a more active lifestyle. Reviewers highlight the CX-70's refined steering and suspension tuning, which contribute to a stable and engaging driving experience, even on challenging mountain roads. The vehicle offers two distinct powertrains: a 3.3L turbocharged inline-6 mild-hybrid and a 2.5L plug-in hybrid (PHEV). The PHEV variant is particularly praised for its seamless transition between electric and gas power, effective regenerative braking that aids in downhill control and battery regeneration, and a respectable all-electric range. While the interior is noted as luxurious and familiar to the CX-90, with available Nappa leather and a digital gauge cluster, both reviewers point out a surprising lack of storage cubbies and thoughtful small-item organization in the front cabin, a stark contrast to the highly practical and spacious cargo area. The cargo space itself is a major highlight, featuring a unique underfloor storage compartment ideal for gear, and a remote-release 60/40 split rear seat. Despite minor interior storage quibbles, the CX-70 is positioned as a compelling option for those seeking a premium, sporty SUV with versatile cargo capabilities and refined driving dynamics. less
2025 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro | We Were Handed The Keys! Is It Worth The Hype?

2025 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro | We Were Handed The Keys! Is It Worth The Hype?

The 2025 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro makes its public debut, showcasing a significant evolution from its predecessor. The reviewer highlights its shared TN... GA-F platform with the Tacoma and Land Cruiser, emphasizing its robust off-road capabilities. Key features include the available i-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain, TRD-tuned suspension, underbody protection, and Rigid lighting. While the styling is noted as polarizing, particularly the front fascia, the overall design is seen as cleaner than the Tacoma. A major positive is the retention of the roll-down rear window. However, the hybrid powertrain necessitates a two-row configuration, sacrificing the potential for a third row due to battery placement. The interior is largely familiar, borrowing heavily from the Tacoma, but offers comfortable seating, a large 14-inch infotainment screen, and comprehensive camera views. The reviewer expresses excitement to test the vehicle's off-road prowess further, noting the potential for a low-hanging spare tire and exhaust as minor concerns. less
2024 Toyota Prius Prime XSE Premium | Is It Still the Butt of Jokes???

2024 Toyota Prius Prime XSE Premium | Is It Still the Butt of Jokes???

The 2024 Toyota Prius Prime XSE Premium is a significant departure from its predecessors, shedding its 'butt of jokes' image for a sleek, sp... orty design and surprisingly engaging driving dynamics. The reviewer highlights the dramatic styling improvements, noting its modern corporate aesthetic and attractive lines. Performance is a strong point, with the 220 combined horsepower offering exhilarating acceleration, even proving fun on a racetrack during a pace lap. The plug-in hybrid system provides a decent electric-only range and contributes to the car's spirited feel. However, the interior ergonomics present a notable drawback, particularly the unconventional gauge cluster placement, which requires a specific seating position and looking over the steering wheel. Despite this, the reviewer praises the comfortable heated/ventilated seats, the impressive 360-degree camera system with its 'invisible car' feature, and the overall practicality of the hatchback design with ample cargo space. While not a track-focused machine, the Prius Prime XSE Premium offers a compelling blend of efficiency, style, and unexpected fun, earning it a World Car of the Year Design award. less
2024 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid Limited | Is It Better Than the 2025 Toyota Camry???

2024 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid Limited | Is It Better Than the 2025 Toyota Camry???

The 2024 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid Limited receives a midcycle refresh, presenting a more aggressive and sporty aesthetic, particularly at the front and r... ear, drawing comparisons to the new Kona. The interior boasts a premium feel with dual 12.3-inch screens, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, and a head-up display, though button placement consistency across Hyundai's lineup remains a minor gripe. The reviewer highlights the comfortable ride, quiet cabin, and practical features like heated/ventilated seats and rear sunshades. Performance is described as adequate for merging and evasive maneuvers, with the hybrid system smoothly integrating the gas and electric motors. While not a performance car, it offers a comfortable and efficient driving experience. The reviewer notes the competitive fuel economy (44/51/47 MPG city/hwy/cmb) and a price point that may surprise buyers, positioning it as a strong contender against rivals like the new Accord and the upcoming 2025 Toyota Camry. less
2025 Toyota Camry XSE AWD First Drive | Has the King Lost Its Crown?

2025 Toyota Camry XSE AWD First Drive | Has the King Lost Its Crown?

The 2025 Toyota Camry XSE AWD hybrid is reviewed as a compelling evolution of the midsize sedan king. The reviewer highlights its all-hybrid powertrai... n as a significant move, offering 232 horsepower and available all-wheel drive, a feature noted as a strong selling point against competitors like the Hyundai Sonata. The design is praised for its youthful, athletic aesthetic, drawing inspiration from the Prius, and particularly the aggressive, gorgeous 19-inch wheels on the XSE trim. Inside, the cabin features quality materials, a full digital cluster, and a user-friendly infotainment system, though some gloss black plastic is noted. Rear seat space is deemed comfortable for adults. On the road, the Camry XSE AWD delivers a pleasing driving experience with adequate power and well-isolated cabin noise, despite the windy conditions. The reviewer concludes that while not a sports car, the Camry has not lost its crown, offering a well-rounded package of efficiency, modern features, and the popular all-wheel-drive option, making it a strong contender in the segment. less
2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Limited AWD Family Review with Child Seat Installation

2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Limited AWD Family Review with Child Seat Installation

The 2024 Hyundai IONIQ 6 Limited AWD is reviewed as a surprisingly spacious and efficient electric sedan, particularly for families. The reviewers hig... hlight its exceptional rear legroom, exceeding that of larger SUVs like the Hyundai Palisade, making it a strong contender for those needing to install child seats. The car's unique, aerodynamic design, while polarizing, is appreciated for its efficiency and distinctive look, though the "Doodle Bug" comparison is noted. Positives include comfortable seats, a smooth ride aided by the long wheelbase and battery placement, and impressive real-world range that can exceed the EPA estimate of 270 miles. The interior is praised for its non-boring design and ample storage, especially the large center console area. However, criticisms include water spotting on the door panels, the inconvenient placement of window controls in the center console, and the lack of a head-up display. The trunk opening is noted as traditional despite the car's profile, and the frunk offers minimal storage. Child seat installation is described as manageable but not as easy as in an SUV, with some difficulty accessing lower LATCH points and tightening the top tether. Despite these drawbacks, the IONIQ 6 is seen as a compelling, efficient, and family-friendly EV, especially with its price reduction for 2024. less
2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Limited AWD | Can You Road Trip Without Planning?

2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Limited AWD | Can You Road Trip Without Planning?

This video chronicles an impromptu road trip in the 2024 Hyundai IONIQ 6 Limited AWD, testing the feasibility of EV travel without prior charging rese... arch. The reviewer highlights the IONIQ 6's impressive efficiency, averaging 3.3-3.5 miles per kWh, and its comfortable, quiet ride, even at highway speeds. The vehicle's 800-volt architecture is praised for its rapid charging potential, with Hyundai claiming 10-80% in 18 minutes. However, the real-world charging experience at Electrify America stations proved frustrating. Despite the car's capability, the reviewer encountered issues with charger availability and inconsistent charging speeds, often receiving significantly less than the advertised rates. While the IONIQ 6 itself performed admirably, the Electrify America infrastructure remains a significant drawback, leading to extended charging times and unexpected costs. The reviewer concludes that while an impromptu trip is possible, the charging network's unreliability makes it a gamble, and the IONIQ 6 is best suited for users who primarily stay within its estimated range. less
2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Limited AWD | I Respond to Your Comments

2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Limited AWD | I Respond to Your Comments

The 2024 Hyundai IONIQ 6 Limited AWD is reviewed by the host, who responds to viewer comments after a week of ownership. Key takeaways highlight the v... ehicle's striking, unique design, often compared to older luxury brands like Saab or Porsche, which the reviewer finds elevates the driving experience beyond a typical Hyundai. The efficiency is praised, with the reviewer achieving an impressive average of 3.4 miles per kWh, even seeing stints of 4.0 miles per kWh, making it potentially the most efficient EV tested on the channel. The car offers a comfortable ride due to its long wheelbase and provides effortless, instantaneous power, especially in Sport mode, though this mode slightly reduces range. The reviewer addresses common owner feedback, clarifying that the rear spoiler houses the third brake light, not solar panels, and discusses the unique bridge-style center console. While the car is lauded for its performance and efficiency, some viewers expressed concerns about battery type and price, though the reviewer notes recent price reductions and a favorable lease offer. The reviewer also touches on the learning curve for EV driving and regenerative braking, contrasting it with the IONIQ 6's more traditional sedan trunk versus a hatchback. less
2024 Hyundai Sonata Limited Hybrid and N Line from the New York Auto Show

2024 Hyundai Sonata Limited Hybrid and N Line from the New York Auto Show

The 2024 Hyundai Sonata receives a mid-cycle refresh, with the reviewer highlighting significant styling updates, particularly the new pixelated light... bar and cleaner rear design, moving away from the previous "catfish" look. The Limited Hybrid trim is praised for its upscale interior materials, dual 12.3-inch screens, head-up display, and comfortable seating, though the reviewer notes the hybrid wheels are 17-inch and somewhat narrow. The N Line variant is presented as the sportier option with a more aggressive exterior, specific wheels, and dual exhaust, powered by a 2.5L turbo engine. While the N Line's interior features unique dual-tone seats with suede accents, it notably lacks the rear sunshades found on the Limited Hybrid. The reviewer expresses a desire for a full-size N version. Overall, the Sonata is seen as a classy and upscale offering in the midsize sedan segment, with the hybrid focusing on efficiency and the N Line on performance. less
Polestar Lineup From The New York Auto Show

Polestar Lineup From The New York Auto Show

At the 2024 New York International Auto Show, GT Garage Talk provides an overview of three Polestar models: the Polestar 2, Polestar 3, and the newly ... unveiled Polestar 4. The reviewer highlights the Polestar 2 as a luxurious competitor to vehicles like the Hyundai Ioniq 5, praising its features and surprisingly affordable price point, noting its premium interior materials and Volvo heritage. The Polestar 4 is presented as the performance-oriented model, featuring a striking SUV coupe design with a unique rear-end lacking a traditional window, relying instead on a high-definition camera feed for the rearview. The Polestar 3 is described as the most traditional SUV of the trio, with a more upright stance and advanced sensor integration in its 'smart zone.' The reviewer expresses a preference for the Polestar 3's design and interior, particularly noting the high-quality Nappa leather and Bowers & Wilkins sound system, though expressing a dislike for the capacitive touch buttons on the steering wheel. Overall, the video offers a comprehensive look at Polestar's expanding lineup, emphasizing their luxury positioning and distinct design philosophies. less
2025 Hyundai Tucson Unveiled at the New York Auto Show

2025 Hyundai Tucson Unveiled at the New York Auto Show

The 2025 Hyundai Tucson receives a significant mid-cycle refresh, unveiled at the New York Auto Show. The reviewer highlights the updated exterior sty... ling, noting a cleaner and more aggressive front-end design with revised lighting. Inside, the most substantial changes are evident, with the elimination of capacitive touch controls in favor of physical knobs and buttons for climate and audio, a move praised by the reviewer. The interior also boasts larger dual 12.3-inch screens, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, and a new steering wheel design. Powertrain options include a standard 2.5L engine, a 1.6L hybrid (231 hp), and a 1.6L plug-in hybrid (268 hp), all available with front or all-wheel drive. The 'Inline' trim, while not a full performance model, offers an appearance package with black accents and unique interior touches. Cargo space is noted as generous, exceeding that of a Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. The reviewer expresses enthusiasm for the updated interior ergonomics and the overall value proposition of the Tucson, particularly in the Inline and Limited trims. less

2024 Kia EV9 Land | Family Review with Child Seat Installation

2024 Kia EV9 Land | Family Review with Child Seat Installation

The 2024 Kia EV9 Land Extended Range AWD is presented as a family-focused, three-row electric SUV. The reviewer highlights its spacious interior, comf... ortable second-row captain's chairs with amenities like heating, ventilation, and a unique 'lounge mode' for charging breaks. Child seat installation is deemed easy for the first and second rows, though third-row access is compromised with car seats installed. Positives include good visibility, smooth ride quality, and ample power delivery, making it easy to drive despite its size. However, significant critiques are leveled against the exterior design, particularly the front fascia, which is described as a "bug catcher" and lacking visual interest. The reviewer also notes a concerning "floaty" sensation at highway speeds when encountering large bumps, and expresses disappointment with the EPA-estimated range of 280 miles, which is not significantly better than smaller EVs despite a larger battery. The high price point, especially for the tested trim at $74,230, is also a major consideration, with the reviewer suggesting leasing to access the $7,500 tax incentive due to its Korean manufacturing origin. less
2024 Kia EV9 Land AWD: The Best Trim

2024 Kia EV9 Land AWD: The Best Trim

The 2024 Kia EV9 Land Extended Range All-Wheel Drive is presented as a compelling, albeit expensive, mainstream alternative to luxury three-row electr... ic SUVs. The reviewer highlights its spaciousness and comfort, particularly for the first two rows, positioning it as an ideal 'chauffeur's vehicle' or family commuter. Key strengths include a comfortable ride, good steering and throttle response, and impressive interior ambient lighting. The "Land" trim is recommended over the GT-Line for its more comfortable 20-inch wheels and softer ride, though the option to upgrade torque is noted. Practicality is emphasized with ample storage and a decent real-world range of around 280 miles on a full charge, though highway efficiency drops to approximately 1.8 miles per kWh. Criticisms include the tight third-row legroom, the vehicle's tendency to feel unsettled over large bumps due to its weight, and the somewhat bland exterior styling. The reviewer also questions the necessity of a performance-oriented GT model, suggesting a rugged off-road variant might be more fitting. less
2023 Ford F 150 Lightning Family Review with Child Seat Installation

2023 Ford F 150 Lightning Family Review with Child Seat Installation

The 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning Lariat is revisited as a practical family vehicle, offering a familiar F-150 experience with an electric powertrain. The... reviewer highlights its spacious interior, comfortable ride (thanks to independent rear suspension), and impressive acceleration, noting it feels like a truck that happens to be electric rather than an electric vehicle trying to be a truck. Key advantages include significant cost savings per mile compared to its gas counterpart (4 cents vs. 18 cents), ample storage with the "mega power frunk" and versatile bed, and ease of child seat installation. Downsides mentioned are the exterior color's tendency to show dirt, the rear-view mirror's limited visibility, and the BlueCruise system's perceived lack of relaxation. While not ideal for heavy towing, it's praised as an excellent family hauler and daily driver, especially for those in regions where full-size trucks are the norm. less
2023 Ford F-150 Lightning: More Than Enough Truck for Most

2023 Ford F-150 Lightning: More Than Enough Truck for Most

The Ford F-150 Lightning is presented as a practical and compelling electric truck, offering a familiar F-150 experience with an electrified powertrai... n. The reviewer highlights its impressive acceleration, smooth and comfortable ride thanks to independent rear suspension, and the convenience of the spacious front trunk (frunk) with its drainable cooler feature. The Pro Power Onboard system is lauded for its utility, capable of powering an average home for up to three days. While acknowledging its towing and payload capabilities, the reviewer suggests it's not ideal for regular heavy towing, recommending a gas version for such use. A key advantage over competitors like the Tesla Cybertruck is its conventional interior and design, making it feel like a "normal" truck. The main drawback identified is the charging speed, topping out at 150 kW, which is slower than some competitors. Despite this, the F-150 Lightning is deemed the "electric pickup truck to get hands down" for its overall usability, efficiency (4 cents per mile), and integration into the existing F-150 ecosystem. less
2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid AWD Sport Touring Family Review with Child Seat Installation

2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid AWD Sport Touring Family Review with Child Seat Installation

The 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid AWD Sport Touring is presented as a practical and well-rounded family SUV, building on its status as a best-seller. The rev... iewer highlights its redesigned exterior for 2023, noting a more chiseled, less curvy aesthetic. Inside, the cabin is praised for its varied textures and a large, functional center console, though the honeycomb dash trim is seen as a dust collector. The hybrid powertrain is a standout, offering a smooth ride with seamless transitions between electric and gasoline power, and impressive fuel economy, with real-world testing showing figures close to the EPA's combined 37 MPG. The reviewer also commends the surprisingly good ride quality and suspension, especially over rough surfaces. Positives include ample interior space, good visibility, and a user-friendly infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto. However, criticisms include a slightly small infotainment screen by modern standards, a lack of a 360-degree camera, and the absence of a top tether for the center rear seat, which is unusual for a family-focused vehicle. Despite these minor drawbacks, the CR-V Hybrid Sport Touring is deemed a realistic and good-value purchase, especially considering Honda's reputation for long-term reliability. less
2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid AWD Sport Touring | Good Enough to Ward Off Newcomers?

2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid AWD Sport Touring | Good Enough to Ward Off Newcomers?

The 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid AWD Sport Touring represents the sixth generation of Honda's best-selling SUV, aiming to fend off strong competition. ... The reviewer praises its handsome, updated styling, calling it the best the CR-V has ever looked, and notes the comfortable ingress/egress. The hybrid powertrain delivers a respectable 204 horsepower and 247 lb-ft of torque, offering a sportier feel than non-hybrid models, with EPA ratings of 40/34/37 MPG. Cargo space is competitive, though the hybrid battery slightly reduces space behind the rear seats compared to non-hybrids. Negatives include the lack of remote seat releases for the rear seats, no center top tether for child seats, and noticeable road noise on textured surfaces. While the handling is competent with good steering and suspension that mitigates body roll, the reviewer notes a slightly floaty sensation over larger undulations and a jarring acceleration experience due to the CVT and engine whine. Despite these points, the CR-V Hybrid Sport Touring is deemed a fun, quick, and comfortable crossover, more than adequate for the general public and a strong contender against rivals like the Toyota RAV4 and Hyundai Tucson. less
2024 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy | An Awesome Update

2024 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy | An Awesome Update

The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe represents a dramatic departure from its predecessor, adopting a rugged, boxy aesthetic reminiscent of a baby Land Rover Def... ender. This third-row crossover is presented in its hybrid configuration, featuring a 1.6L turbo-four paired with an electric powertrain, delivering a combined 231 horsepower. While the reviewer expresses curiosity about its performance given the power output, they appreciate the inclusion of more hybrid options in the market. Key design highlights include a full-width LED light bar, distinctive H-pattern lighting elements, and practical features like integrated roof rack access handles. Criticisms are leveled at the low placement of the rear tail lights, attributed to US regulations and the desire for a wide, tall cargo opening. Inside, the Calligraphy trim boasts dual 12.3-inch screens, comfortable and feature-rich front seats with a relax mode, and a unique steering wheel with the "H" morse code. Second-row passengers benefit from power seats and sunshades, though third-row access and seating position are noted as compromises. Overall, the Santa Fe aims to capture a more adventurous and family-oriented market with its bold new styling and versatile interior. less
2024 Kia EV9 GT-Line: First Drive

2024 Kia EV9 GT-Line: First Drive

The 2024 Kia EV9 GT-Line offers a compelling glimpse into the future of family electric SUVs, building upon the success of its predecessor, the Tellur... ide. This first drive highlights its spacious and comfortable interior, particularly for the first two rows, featuring premium amenities like a 14-speaker Meridian sound system and sustainably sourced vegan leather seats. The reviewer praises the futuristic design, advanced lighting, and the impressive 800-volt architecture enabling rapid charging (100 miles in 10 minutes). While the GT-Line trim delivers strong performance with 379 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque, the option to download an additional performance boost for a 4.5-second 0-60 time is noted. The driving experience is described as calm, quiet, and comfortable, with a low center of gravity mitigating the vehicle's substantial mass, though it can feel a bit floaty. The reviewer acknowledges the high price point, especially for the top GT-Line trim, as a potential barrier for some buyers, but ultimately deems the EV9 a "Stanley Cup of the future," offering a premium experience that justifies the cost for many, positioning it as a strong contender against luxury electric SUVs. less
2024 Toyota Grand Highlander Limited Hybrid AWD | Family Review with Child Seat Installation

2024 Toyota Grand Highlander Limited Hybrid AWD | Family Review with Child Seat Installation

The 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander Limited Hybrid AWD is presented as a spacious and family-friendly three-row SUV, closely related to the Lexus TX but ... with distinct styling and interior touches. Reviewers found the exterior design to be boxy but functional, with the "Coastal Cream" paint being a notable, albeit safe, color choice. The interior is praised for its ample storage, comfortable captain's chairs, and the inclusion of numerous USB-C ports. A key highlight is the practicality for families, including a detailed child seat installation process in both the second and third rows, though the second-row seats are noted as not being particularly child-seat friendly due to their sliding mechanism. The driving experience is described as feeling like a large vehicle, which some may prefer. A significant point of contention is the aggressive regenerative braking in Eco mode, which the reviewer found intrusive and counterintuitive for efficient coasting. While the powertrain is competent, the reviewer ultimately favors the Toyota Sienna minivan for its overall package. Despite some minor gripes like the lack of a standard head-up display (requiring the Platinum trim) and a discrepancy with advertised 360 cameras, the vehicle is seen as a strong contender, particularly in this Limited Hybrid AWD configuration, with a price point that surprised the reviewers positively. less
2024 Genesis GV60 Performance AWD | Family Review with Child Seat Installation

2024 Genesis GV60 Performance AWD | Family Review with Child Seat Installation

Reviewers highlight its futuristic... and sleek exterior design, which garners significant attention. The interior is praised for its luxury appointments, including Nappa leather, heated and ventilated seats, and a premium Bang & Olufsen sound system. A standout feature is the unique 'orb' gear selector. The GV60's performance is noted, with its dual-motor AWD system delivering strong acceleration, especially with the boost mode. The ride is described as quiet and composed, contributing to a luxurious experience. A key focus of the review is child seat installation, which is deemed very easy and convenient, with ample interior space even for rear-facing seats, making it a strong contender for families. However, minor drawbacks include the lack of memory for seat and climate controls, and the visibility out the rear is considered a style-over-function compromise. The cream-colored floor mats are also flagged as a potential issue for families with young children. Despite these points, the GV60 is considered good value for its luxury features and performance. less
