/ / / / / Pleos Connect could keep Hyundai, Kia and Genesis technology improving, but buyers need clear answers about support, privacy and future costs. When I experienced Hyundai’s software in Korea, I came away with a question that a glossy dashboard demonstration cannot settle: what will this system be like when the car is ten years old? I asked about that during the interview identified as being with Eric Wood, senior vice president and head of product experience at 42dot.

/ / / / Honda engines connect Acura racing, boats, and jets, but Integra Type S buyers should judge the road car on evidence that matters to ownership. From the passenger seat of an Acura Integra Type S on a circuit, the familiar equipment takes on a slightly ridiculous quality. There are license plates, air conditioning and room for shopping. The car is occupied with something considerably more entertaining than bringing groceries home.

/ / / / The Ferrari Luce raises a sharper question than whether an EV deserves the badge: what should buyers demand from a new kind of Ferrari? A €550,000 car should come with a very convincing answer to “why this one?” For the Ferrari Luce, that answer needs to survive beyond the designer’s name, the launch photographs and the satisfaction of owning something that has divided the internet. My starting point would be the ownership brief.

/ / / / / / This 2026 Chevrolet Equinox vehicle analysis weighs LT value, AWD choices, family space and safety to help you avoid paying for the wrong trim. By Nik J. Miles My starting point for a 2026 Chevrolet Equinox vehicle analysis is the LT. Heated front seats and a heated steering wheel are useful equipment, and Chevrolet includes them without asking you to buy the trim dressed for a mountain expedition.

/ / / / The IONNA charging network passed 180 sites and topped JD Power’s fast-charger ranking, with Plug & Charge coming to certain Toyota and Lexus models. Charging has been the EV argument that never quite ends. You can make the case for range, price and software, but the conversation usually circles back to one question: will the charger work when I get there?

/ / / / / By Robert R Guio Range Rover Sport Electric targets drivers first, combining 542 hp, 800-volt charging and a lower center of gravity with real off-road hardware. There is an easy way to launch an expensive electric SUV: give it enormous horsepower, quote an impressive acceleration number and photograph it somewhere dramatic. Range Rover has all three available, yet the most important number attached to the new electric Sport may be 73 mm.

/ / / / / / 2026 Subaru WRX review: The Premium makes the strongest everyday case, but automatic buyers face a bigger bill and winter use needs suitable tires. By Nik J. Miles The first option I would price on a 2026 WRX is heated seats. Subaru charges $1,500 to move from Base to Premium, and that upgrade adds useful cold-weather equipment without changing the engine. For somebody buying a manual sedan to keep through several winters, it deserves consideration before expensive performance hardware.

/ / / / / Hyundai affordability starts years before a car reaches dealers, as Olabisi Boyle explains the balance between better features and buyer budgets. The most revealing part of my interview with Olabisi Boyle was the constraint she put on tomorrow’s cars. Hyundai can develop more sophisticated vehicles, but it cannot simply assume that Americans will have more money to buy them. That forces difficult decisions long before a shopper opens a door or asks about the monthly payment.

/ / / Rivian deliveries reached a quarterly record, but the R2’s true role remains unclear because Rivian has not reported deliveries by model. Rivian delivered 19,248 vehicles in the third quarter, a company record and 46% more than a year earlier. The total topped an analyst consensus of 18,001. Rivian built 19,751 vehicles at its Normal, Illinois, factory, so production exceeded deliveries by 503 units.

This 2026 Ford Bronco vehicle analysis explains body styles, trim choices, fuel costs and safety so you can buy the equipment you will actually use. By Nik J. Miles Choose your Bronco roof before the badge. If open-air driving brings you here, choose the roof you can operate and store. This 2026 Ford Bronco vehicle analysis covers the U.S. range, with Big Bend as the starting point for a four-door shopping shortlist. No fresh drive notes, test-vehicle sticker or original measurements were supplied.
