It's a data-rich conversation with serious implications for dealers navigating policy shifts, EV adoption, and consumer behavior.ASOTU's coverage of the 45th Annual NAMAD Annual Meeting is brought to you by Connected Dealer Services.Jonathan Smoke, Chief Economist at Cox Automotive, offers a deep dive into today's economic headwinds and consumer sentiment:Tariffs Echo the 1930s: Jonathan compares today's tariffs to policies that sparked the Great Depression, but says their current impact is more of a "roller coaster" than a collapse.Stabilization Surprises: Despite the policy shakeups, consumer spending has rebounded this summer. July auto sales were stronger than expected and August showed continued momentum.7 Million Buyers Still Waiting: Pent-up demand remains real. First-party data from AutoTrader, KBB, and dealer websites shows strong shopping interest, even among buyers still hunting for affordable payments.Best Time in 4 Years to Buy (If You Have Credit): Incentives, leasing deals, and EV discounts make this a prime moment for well-qualified buyers—especially for electrified vehicles.EV Adoption Is Not Slowing Down: July marked the highest market share ever for EVs in the U.S. at 9.1%. EVs are now priced lower than ICE vehicles, and the replacement cycle is kicking in.Electrification Is Inevitable: Jonathan predicts most multi-car households will have at least one EV. He drives a PHEV himself and sees plug-ins as an optimal choice for daily commutes.China May Be the Wildcard: Smoke believes Chinese EVs entering the U.S. market is a matter of when, not if—and that it may be the key to returning to a consistent 17M SAAR.Bonus Track: For Q3, Jonathan's playlist is inspired by ABBA's Gold—think "Money, Money, Money" meets “Gimme!

Benjamin fires up the show with his take on the 2026 Cadillac Vistiq, an electric three-row crossover that seems to be replacing Caddy;s own XT6. With 102 kWh of battery on tap, and over 600 hp, this is a big player in the world of EVs, but what else makes it stand out? While the world of three-row EVs is relatively slim, Benjamin suggests that the Vistiq might have a chance to be the best in its class, if only GM could sort out some small teething issues first. Then the show turns towards plug-in hybrids, as Benjamin and Sami quickly discuss the 2025 Toyota Prius PHEV. Formerly crowned as car of the year, the guys pinpoint what makes this Prius special compared to previous ones, and whether this plug-in variant is one of the best commuter cars on the market.

This week, the Unnamed Automotive Podcast jams out with some subcompact crossovers. The show starts with Sami's review of the 2025 Hyundai Kona Electric, a perfectly fine EV that is a bit overshadowed by its market. With the competition offering better value, Sami and Benjamin argue that a used Hyundai Kona Electric is the smart choice for EV shoppers on a tight budget. Then the guys turn their focus to the 2026 Honda HR-V. Using Sami's previous experience as background information on his tester, Benjamin starts off thinking the Honda subcompact is pretty solid, but after spending more time with it, he wonders if there's a worse choice in the segment.

Our hosts at the Unnamed Automotive Podcast are perfectly synchronized (unlike the 3rd gear in Sami's car) which means they can come to this weeks show to talk about their vastly different experiences in the same car. Up for review is the 2025 Cadillac Optiq, which both Benjamin and Sami had the pleasure of testing out, and both of them have plenty to say about. Sami seems charmed by its more mainstream roots, while Benjamin thinks the Optiq is the embodiment of GM's recent push for EVs. With plenty of range and space, there's a lot to like about the Optiq, but there are a few oddities too, including its class-exclusive hands-free driving mode too, which wasn't working so smoothly with one of our hosts.

This is Watts & Wheels, a new motoring show hosted by motoring journalist (and “buzzhead” – or is that “electronhead”?) William Kelly and TechCentral editor (and wannabe EV owner) Duncan McLeod. With a focus on the shift to electric motoring, the pilot season of Watts & Wheels consists of three episodes. The focus of the show is the “lived EV experience”, with the aim of helping “dispel some of the misconceptions” about owning and driving an EV in South Africa. What else can you expect from Watts & Wheels? We'll look at the latest EV models – from mild hybrids to plug-in hybrids and full battery-electric vehicles – making their way to South African shores. We'll also test drive many of them for the show. We'll also look at the business of motoring, and the challenges and opportunities facing the local industry amid the tectonic shifts that are remaking the global automotive sector, including the rapid rise of Chinese EV brands. Whether you're pondering your first EV purchase, are keen to understand the nuances of local charging networks or are simply fascinated by the future of sustainable transport, let Watts & Wheels be your guide. In episode 1, William and Duncan dive into: • The different types of new energy vehicles available in South Africa, explaining terms like EV, BEV, HEV, PHEV and REEV. What do they all mean, and how are prospective buyers to choose between these technologies? • Should consumers really be worried about long-term battery health in EVs? Spoiler alert: no! In fact, the data now shows battery endurance in EVs has been vastly underestimated. • The power of VTOL, or vehicle-to-load, technology and how it can be used to power everything from a kettle to your house. • The electrification of bakkies, including a look at BYD's exciting new Shark 6 PHEV (and whether it can beat the monstrous 3l Ford Raptor from a standing start to 100km/h); Nissan's sexy Frontier PHEV (not confirmed for South Africa); and Ford's new PHEV Ranger (made in Silverton in Pretoria). • The controversial Jaguar Type 00 – and why William thinks why the critics have it completely wrong. If you like what you see, please subscribe to Watts & Wheels on YouTube – and share the word with family and friends. It's also available as an audio podcast in your favourite podcasting app. In episode 2, out next week, look out for an exclusive look at – and first media test drive of – South Africa's first 4x4 fully electric bakkie.

Family Car Faceoff: 2025 Mazda CX-90 PHEV, 2025 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid — SUV or Sedan?

America on the Road

There was a time when the typical family car was a four-door sedan, not unlike the 2025 Hyundai Sonata. But then the SUV craze hit, and families defected to crossovers like the 2025 Mazda CX-90. So this week, we litigate this issue with road tests of the hybrid version of the Sonata and the plug-in hybrid version of the CX-90. Host Jack Nerad road-tested the 2025 Mazda CX-90 PHEV Premium Plus, a three-row SUV that blends a 323-horsepower plug-in hybrid powertrain with upscale features. Its e-Skyactiv PHEV system offers an estimated 26-mile all-electric range and a total range of 490 miles. Beyond its power and fuel economy, it features an eight-speed automatic transmission, several drive modes, and i-ACTIV all-wheel drive. Inside, the seven-passenger cabin features Nappa leather, ventilated front seats, heated second-row captain's chairs, a 12.3-inch infotainment display, and a 12-speaker Bose system. A full suite of advanced safety features ensures peace of mind, while its 3,500-pound towing capacity adds versatility. Across the country, co-host Chris Teague spent a week behind the wheel of the 2025 Hyundai Sonata Limited Hybrid, a midsize sedan that combines style, comfort, and strong fuel economy. Powered by a 2.0-liter engine and electric motor that delivers torque through a six-speed automatic transmission, the handsome four-door delivers an impressive 47 mpg combined. Key features include a panoramic sunroof, 17-inch alloy wheels, and leather-trimmed heated and ventilated front seats. From the tech perspective, the Sonata offers a 12.3-inch touchscreen with navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bose premium audio, and a surround-view monitor. Advanced safety technologies such as forward collision-avoidance assist, blind-spot collision warning, and highway drive assist round out the package. So, which of these is the better family car, circa 2015? We'll share our thoughts. Turning to the news, we examine how tariffs are impacting U.S. car prices. While average prices rose only 0.8% year-over-year in April, tariffs have led to somewhat sharper increases on some imported vehicles. As pre-tariff inventory thins, supply is tightening, and affordable new cars are becoming harder to find, especially as models like the Nissan Versa exit the sub-$20,000 segment. We also take a look at AAA's newest survey, which shows consumer interest in EVs is declining. Only 16% of respondents said they would likely choose an EV for their next vehicle, while 63% are unlikely to do so. Top concerns include battery repair costs and high purchase prices, despite improving durability and falling prices in some EV segments. We'll give you our thoughts as well. In response to slowing demand, Lucid Motors is slashing prices on its 2025 Air lineup, offering up to $31,500 in savings on the Air Grand Touring. Other trims see discounts as well, as Lucid seeks to better compete with Tesla and other luxury EV makers. Finally, we highlight Volkswagen of America's celebration of International Volkswagen Bus Day. VW is restoring the 1977 T2 “magic bus” that survived Southern California's Palisades fire, honoring the VW bus legacy, from the classic T1 to today's all-electric ID. Buzz. This week's listener question comes from Ronald in Stockton, California, who asks: “I've had trouble with my windshield wipers over the years, and I'm wondering if I just don't replace them often enough. Do you have any thoughts on windshield wipers? Should I clean my windshield when I install them?” Chris and Jack will have the answers from the experts.

The Unnamed Automotive Podcast tackles a pair of uncommon vehicles this week. The show starts with Benjamin's review of the 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz XRT model, which emphasizes a more rugged and tough approach to compact trucking. Benjamin explains how it compares to the recently reviewed 2025 Ford Maverick, and whether Hyundai is capable of building a truck that works for North American needs. Then Sami chimes in with his review of the 2025 Nissan Ariya, which offers a lot of the same features and technologies found on other EVs on the market. Our hosts ask what makes the Ariya special in this segment, and struggle to come up with a definitive answer, despite Nissan's past leadership in the EV space. Thanks for listening!

This Weeks Unnamed Automotive Podcast begins with a thorough review of the 2025 Ford Maverick, which has been refreshed. Featuring a new drivetrain and a new street truck Lobo trim, the pickup gives Benjamin plenty to talk about, but its new price point seems to be a silver bullet in this whole cheap truck thing. Then Sami reviews the 2025 Macan 4 EV, which boasts tons of range and plentiful performance, leaving our host to ask "what else do you want?" It turns out, a cheaper MSRP, nicer interior and a reason for two charge ports would be the answer to that question. Finally, Benjamin shares some barely coherent thoughts on the 2025 Toyota Crown Signia. Dismissed by Sami as something that is barely more than a Toyota Camry, Benjamin shows up to defend the Signia's honour, while completely ignoring its price and performance. Sometimes vibes is all you need.

Why isn't a minivan considered a "long roof"? Why don't we name all cars based on their roofs? What's the right plural of roof? These questions and more are answered this week on the Unnamed Automotive Podcast! The show starts off with a review of the 2025 Honda Odyssey minivan, as Sami wonders why this Japanese van lacks the fun features many of its rivals have (and explains where the HondaVac went to.) But he comes across loving its single-minded approach to family transportation. What's holding the Odyssey, and other minivans, from getting widepsread appreciation? The guys give you the definitive answer. Then Benjamn shares his thoughts on the 2025 Cadillac CT5 - the entry-level model to boot! A tweener sedan with a high-tech cabin, the CT5 is likely missing on many buyers short-lists, but Ben says it may have earned a spot among those checking out smaller and less featured European options.

However, Sami's experience with the Crown has been changed by recent tests of the Camry and Accord, both of which were spacious, well equipped, efficient and responsive. Does the more expensive Crown have anything to offer that they don't? Then Benjamin finally gets his chance to drive the 2025 Honda Pilot TrailSport. A three-row crossover with some off-roading capabilities, the Pilot feels like it should be more interesting to drive and live with than other three-rows like the Highlander, Telluride and Palisade, but Benjamin points out that there are a few things that stop it from being a standout. Finally, the show closes up on checkup on Fisker, and an interesting law that means that Chase is sending Fisker Ocean buyers to Rivian dealerships. Thanks for listening!
