Particularly for women. The reason for charging money is usually for the maintenance of the equipment. In NSW it was to limit the riff raff Paying to use a toilet can be traced back almost 2000 years As this is the anniversary from 1973 of legislation being passed to remove the charges on toilets in Chicago, the first American city to enact a ban There is such a thing as The American Restroom Association In Australia we here about several centenary anniversaries of developments in public toilets at railway stations Road Test of the Genesis GV80 coupe Large SUV Coupe body is not to everyone's taste Contacts Details Web Site: Driven Media: drivenmedia.com.au Podcasts iTunes: Cars Transport Culture Spotify: Cars Transport Culture Or our social pages Facebook Cars Transport Culture Instagram Cars Transport Culture Or YouTube site Cars Transport Culture Search for Cars transport culture Credits And this has been overdrive Thanks to Paul Murrell Mark Wesley Bruce Potter for their help with this program.

This week co-host Chris Teague and host Jack Nerad were up to their eyeballs in modern luxury. Teague had the honor of testing the newest model from the prestigious Genesis brand, while Nerad took the wheel of the performance version of the brand's dedicated battery-electric SUV. Both were equipped with the top-rated powertrains in each model's lineup, and both provided impressive eye candy both inside and out. The 2025 Genesis GV80 Coupe Chris tested features a high-performance powertrain—a "twin-charged" V6 engine with both a turbocharger and an “electric supercharger,” delivering 409 horsepower. Inside, it swaps the standard GV80's three-row layout for a sportier two-row cabin, highlighted by a sweeping 27.0-inch digital display and racy design touches like a flat-bottomed steering wheel and metal-accented pedals. Nerad tested the 2025 Genesis GV60 Performance AWD, a small, battery-electric SUV built for enthusiasts, featuring dual motors that produce up to 429 horsepower—or 483 horsepower in Boost Mode. Powered by a 77.4 kWh battery and riding on Hyundai's E-GMP platform, it pairs sharp performance with high-end comfort, offering Nappa leather seats, a 12.3-inch digital cockpit, Bang & Olufsen audio, and cutting-edge tech like facial recognition and fingerprint authentication. With sleek touches like 21-inch wheels and a Vision Roof, it delivers both dynamic driving and premium convenience in a zero-emissions package. But at $72,000 as-tested is it a smart luxury-vehicle buy? Jack and Chris will offer their opinions. We have a primo guest this week. Bob Broderdorf is the chief executive officer of the Jeep brand and he has also served in top positions with Ram and Dodge. With the American car market in turmoil recently, he will describe how the legendary Jeep brand is making its way forward. We think you'll enjoy the discussion he had with host Jack Nerad. In the news this week, Nissan has announced some new products for North America as it tries to shore up its position here in the United States. We'll have details. Hyundai has just announced that it is making a huge investment in U.S. manufacturing and parts operations, and it includes the establishment of new plant that is likely the first in decades. We'll have more on that. Porsche is upping its tech game, perhaps in response to the BMW announcement we told you about last week. And Toyota has announced a new racing series that might get Chris into the cockpit on the race course. We'll tell you all about that coming up. So we have a lot of show for you this week.

Volvos XC90 might be getting long in the tooth, with its current generation debuting almost a decade ago, but its plug-in hybrid Recharge variant leans into the current electrified discussion. This potent PHEV takes the reserved styling of the family-hauling XC90 and stuffs the Volvo plug-in hybrid powertrain under the skin. This system blends a turbocharged 2.0-liter I4 with electric motors to send a combined 455 hp and 523 lb-ft of torque to the wheels. On the newer end of the spectrum, the smaller Genesis GV60 eschews the gasoline engine and relies solely on electric motors for motivation. This battery-electric crossover packs a 77.4 kWh battery to feed two motors in the Performance AWD trim. This all-wheel-drive performance trim sends 429 hp, or 483 hp in boost mode, to all four wheels. The downside to this power is that this BEV can only travel 235 miles per charge, per Genesis. On this episode of Talking Cars with the Boss, Wesley Wren, and Natalie Neff talk about these modern people movers. Natalie Neff talks about her time with this battery-electric Genesis and this plug-in hybrid Volvo. The pair talk about the benefits and drawbacks of each powertrain. The pair also discuss which one of these machines they'd throw onto their driveway.

Show Notes https://www.rushtoreason.com/show-notes/06-03-2024/
To say that the transition to electric vehicles isn't going as predicted is putting it mildly. This week, two global manufacturers revealed that they are pausing their previously planned introductions of battery-electric sedans in the United States. That's the reason you won't see the Volkswagen ID.7, a staple in the European market, here in the U.S. this year. Volkswagen had previously announced that the sleek sedan would be arriving in American showrooms by the end of 2024, but then it did an about-face and took the unusual step of putting out a media advisory that it was pausing the intro of the sleek sedan here. When -- or if -- we will ever see it remains unclear. Another global automaker has also paused its introduction of battery-electric sedans in the United States in the wake of underwhelming sales of EVs so far this year. The car manufacturer also said it was pausing the development of future EV sedans. We'll tell you who that automaker is and have our comments in this episode of AOTR. Our road tests this week present happier news. Co-Host Chris Teague found himself at the wheel of an auto journalist's dream — a Eurostyle station wagon. He put the 2024 Volvo V60 Cross Country through its paces in a lengthy road test, and he'll share the results with us. On the other coast, Host Jack Nerad got the opportunity to live with the 2024 Genesis GV60 battery-electric SUV. Not only did he drive the GV60 Performance AWD version, but he also sampled the battery-electric lifestyle in one of the nation's hotbeds of EV ownership. His conclusions are served up in this episode. The Memorial Day weekend is one of the biggest car-buying weekends of the year, so instead of a guest this week, Jack and Chris will share their recent vehicle purchase experiences and offer dos and don'ts for your potential car-buying effort. The radically increased tariffs on Chinese-built electric vehicles will kick in on August 1, and the suddenness of their imposition continues to stir up a flurry of reactions. We'll have more details and our comments coming up. In non-EV news we have two car introductions to talk about, one from Honda and another from a car company we bet you've never heard of. But we can't wait to see the car's official unveiling at Pebble Beach in August. We'll have details on both.

If you DON'T like electric vehicles, you should drive the Genesis GV60. Because here's the thing: I don't like EVs either. At least I was pretty convinced I didn't. But the driving experience of the Genesis GV60 is good enough to make me realize, it's actually not 'the concept' of an electric vehicle that I don't like. Rather, it's 'what they've come to represent' over the last few years. And as astute & honest car enthusiasts, we have to be able to separate 'the car' from its stigma and/or its politics. Politics & preconceived notions aside… The Genesis GV60 is a great option, IF it fits your lifestyle requirements. Maybe it does; maybe it doesn't; maybe it's best YOU get to decide & not the government. But also maybe you're digging your heels in to make a point… and maybe cheating yourself out of something cool in the process. Maybe not lol. I can't speak to the GV60's value, resale value, or future obsolescence… you also gotta slide that scale on your own. But I can say, with the right approach, the Genesis GV60 could make a great addition to a lot of car lovers' garages. Not as a replacement to their beloved sports cars and/or 4x4s of yesteryear… but as an addition to them. I'll be honest, the Genesis GV60 has opened my eyes to some misapplied hate I had for electric vehicles. That doesn't make all the valid EV criticisms all-the-sudden untrue. But it DOES make some of them perhaps unfair. If you're in the market, not just for an EV, but for a new car (daily) in general. Check all your preconceived notions at the door of a Genesis dealership, and experience what the GV60 has to offer with no strings attached. Whether or not it ends up being your cup of tea, it's something worth experiencing.
You could say the Ford F-150 Lightning Switchgear is the unexpected Lightning. Sporting 37-inch tires and outrageous bodywork, the Ford Performance on- and off-road demonstrator vehicle doesn't simply get stares for how it looks but also for what it can do. That's because the stuff it can do is pretty epic. In this week's show we get behind the scenes of this amazing one-off truck in an interview with one of its key development engineers, Sri Pakkam. He'l give us the details on why Ford decided to build the truck, the challenges the development team has faced and what it hopes the truck can acomplish. Designed and built in collaboration with RTR Vehicles and inspired by the 2016 F-150 RTR Ultimate Fun-Haver project vehicle, the Switchgear's arresting carbon bodywork covers off-road upgrades that take the F-150 Lightning where it's never been. With a wider track, greatly improved ground clearance, and plenty of suspension travel, it's a testbed for pushing the boundaries of what's expected from electric trucks. The interview will tell you more. The road test segment will also include an electric vehicle this week. Co-Host Chris Teague was blessed with the opportunity to drive the 2024 Genesis GV60 crossover in a week of frigid temperatures, ice and snow in Maine. Across the country, Host Jack Nerad drove the 2024 Mazda CX-90 to the desert and back, battling 80-degree temperatures and sunny conditions all the way. In the news this week, we will examine the key vehicles unveiled at the New York Auto Show. Hyundai, Nissan, Kia, Porsche and Genesis showed off some notable vehicles. We offer details and give our thoughts on each one. Meanwhile, there is plenty of trouble in EV Land. Ford has just laid off or transferred two-thirds of the 2,100 workers at its Rouge plant who were building F-150 Lightning electric pickups. Things are even more dire at Fisker. The EV brand has cut prices drastically on its 2023 models as it tries to fend off imminent bankruptcy. Investors in the company have been told to prepare for the worst. We'll have our comments on all this mayhem coming up. So we have a lot of show for you this week Please join us for this week's episode.

This episode is a great discussion coming from a question submitted by our producer Jake: what is the modern equivalent of the Mercedes W201 190E? == This episode of “The Carmudgeon Show” is presented by Valentine One Radar Locator: Find radar before it finds you! https://bit.ly/Valentine1_Hagerty Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-ICONS == Jason and Derek try to come up with a list of 5 Cars That Are Significant Like the W201 was. The first question is what made that old Mercedes so special. The criteria are: Technical Innovation. Moving Into a New Market. Meaningful Change to the Industry. Democratizing Features Previously Not Part of a Segment With bonus points for: Motorsport Heritage Design Then, it becomes so much more. And possibly includes the Hyundai/Kia triplets: Hyundai Ioniq 5, Genesis GV60, and Kia EV6. The 1992 Toyota Camry. The answer lies somewhere between Tesla's Model 3, the Porsche Cayenne, the Toyota Prius, and the Lexus LS400. === Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Hyundai is positioning itself as one of the leaders in electric vehicle manufacturing, adding another EV to its lineup with the Ioniq 6. Sharing a platform with the Genesis GV60, Kia EV6, and Hyundai Ioniq 5, we share our first impressions of this all-electric sedan, including its unique styling, EV performance, driving dynamics, range, and how it stacks up to competitors like Tesla Model 3 and BMW i4. We also discuss whether a flat tire sealant kit is an acceptable and safe alternative to run-flat tires or a dedicated spare.

Did you know: electrons are powering the latest cars tested on the Unnamed Automotive Podcast, and also everything around you? We're slowly coming to terms with that as Benjamin and Sami try out some new EVs and hybrid vehicles. First up on the show, (beyond the food tangent that infrequently occurs on the podcast) is the 2023 Genesis GV60 and its oh so tempting BOOST button. Benjamin shares his thoughts on the Korean luxury EV, and why he hasn't gotten his E-GMP badge yet. To show that times are really changing, Benjamin even warms up to some of the biometric features found in the Genesis - a discussion you won't want to miss. Then Sami jumps into action to talk about the recently updated 2023 Honda Accord Hybrid. As large sedans lose their fun factor, Sami seems convinced that the Accord is managing the transition to comfy, family vehicle, with impressive fuel efficiency. At just over $30k this Honda should work for a lot of people, but time will tell if it maintains its popularity in this Crossover-crazy world. Speaking of crazy, if you were worried about something, would being forced to go into an escape room help? Don't miss our wacky news analysis coming straight from VW's recently concerned employees.

Ford and General Motors have been conservative in their approach to battery-electric pickup trucks, But Ram has decided to go in a completely different direction. Its Ram 1500 Revolution BEV Concept, introduced at CES, takes the pickup truck to a different plane. And this week we have an exclusive interview for the man responsible for the startling concept — Stellantis Chief Design Officer Ralph Gilles. Host Jack Nerad got the opportunity for a one-on-one interview with Gilles about the truck concept. And the designer revealed the key points in the development of the vehicle and capsulized what it means to the Ram brand as it goes forward into electrification. In this week's road test segment, Co-Host Chris Teague describes how the battery-electric Genesis GV60 fared in the frigid Maine winter. The snow piled to the rooftops had the GV60 a bit confused at times, and we'll tell you why. Also in the road test segment, Jack Nerad will describe his week behind the wheel of the hot Hyundai Elantra N. He'll tell why he thinks it is one of the absolute best performance bargains of 2023. In the news, one major automaker has had so much difficulty with supply chain issues and inventory shortages that it called a national press conference to explain. We attended that conference, and we'll tell you what car company it is and what its chief American executive said coming up. Can you afford to buy a new car right now? A new survey shows that a lot of Americans are concerned about auto affordability these days, and you could be one of them. We'll give you the details a little later in this segment. And Maserati has launched the new Maserati Grecale SUV in America and released new details of the three upcoming 2024 Maserati GranTurismo models. We'll have more on both coming up. Plus, your listener questions are answered, so join us for this week's episode. Host Jack Nerad's latest book, a crime novel based on true crime. It's available now by clicking here.

The all-electric Genesis GV60 is the brand's first electric vehicle built on a dedicated EV architecture. It has a completely different vibe than platform sharing Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6. Quick, quiet, nimble and packed with tech features, the Performance will get you where you're going in unique Genesis style (that not everyone's going to love). Tom tests a Performance model in Uyuni White and a Torrent Navy interior that retails for $69,560… if you can even buy it where you live. It's only available in Arizona, California, Connecticut, New Jersey, Nevada, New York, Utah and Washington. Oh, and that Chrystal Sphere!
The all-new Q4 e-tron is Audi's third EV model, and we share our first impressions of its driving characteristics, tech-heavy interior, whether the 240 miles range will be enough for most drivers, and how it compares to the Tesla Model Y, Genesis GV60, and Ford Mustang Mach-E. We also share some important tips to avoid buying a car that has been in a flood. ----------------------------------- Have a question for our experts?
