POPULARITY
Does vehicle reliability lead to owner satisfaction? We ponder this question and more as we discuss the most recent Consumer Reports survey. We also consider if the member-sourced survey has a built in bias against particular automakers.
Even as the markets flirt with $100/bbl crude oil, the nation's shale oil industry is not uniformly ramping up production to take advantage of the higher prices. Does automotive reliability translate into owner happiness and satisfaction? We discuss the Consumer Reports' 2022 Owner Satisfaction Ratings. What will the future of Formula 1 racing look like? Perhaps a lot like Formula E - electric powered Formula 1 cars with a twist.
Lots of electric car news to get charged up about this week, as Tesla unveiled its Model 3-based crossover Model Y, and Henrik Fisker's new automotive venture announced a $40,000 all-electric SUV. We recently bought an electric vehicle of our own for our test program, the 2019 Hyundai Kona EV, and give our first impressions on how it compares to the top rated gas version. We also answer audience questions this week about Jeep reliability vs. owner satisfaction, replacement high-performance tires for an Infiniti G37 sedan, and what to consider when your car's nearest dealership is hours away. ---------------------------------- Have a question for our experts?
