The Deep Dive: Cina domina il 70% degli EV: Tesla e Stellantis affondano nel Q2 2025? analisi e dibattito aperto tra esperti.In questa puntata esploreremo l'allarme lanciato da Jim Farley, CEO di Ford, riguardo la superiorità schiacciante della Cina nel settore dei veicoli elettrici (EV), definita da lui stesso "umiliante". La Cina non solo produce il 70% di tutti i veicoli elettrici a livello globale, ma ha anche innalzato la qualità e integrato tecnologie d'avanguardia (come quelle di Huawei e Xiaomi) che offrono una "user experience" anni luce avanti rispetto ai produttori occidentali. A ciò si aggiungono costi di produzione significativamente inferiori, creando un'offerta "imbattibile" sul mercato.Analizzeremo come questa realtà stia mettendo in crisi giganti occidentali:•Tesla: Ha registrato un significativo calo nelle consegne nel Q2 2025 (-13,5% rispetto all'anno precedente) e la sua quota di mercato in Cina per i veicoli a nuova energia è scesa al 3,8% a maggio. BYD ha superato Tesla di oltre 222.000 unità nelle consegne di BEV passeggeri nel Q2 2025.•Stellantis: Ha riportato un calo del 10% nelle vendite totali negli Stati Uniti nel Q2 2025 e fatica a consolidare la sua posizione nel mercato dei veicoli completamente elettrici (BEV) in Europa, nonostante la sua performance nei PHEV.•Ford: Ha dovuto rivedere drasticamente la propria strategia, investendo quasi 2 miliardi di dollari per riorientare la produzione verso modelli ibridi, una decisione costosa e forse non sufficiente.La preoccupazione di Farley va oltre gli EV, indicando una competizione globale a 360 gradi dove le aziende cinesi stanno ridefinendo gli standard dell'automobile moderna. È un allarme sistemico per l'intera industria automobilistica occidentale, che deve riconoscere questa superiorità e agire radicalmente.Unisciti a noi per un'analisi approfondita e un dibattito aperto tra esperti su cosa significhi tutto questo per il futuro dell'auto e quali strategie concrete potrebbero adottare i produttori occidentali per contrastare l'avanzata cinese e riguadagnare quote di mercato.The Deep Dive: Cina domina il 70% degli EV: Tesla e Stellantis affondano nel Q2 2025? analisi e dibattito aperto tra esperti.

How much should an optional extra cost? Paint, bedliner, safety features? Today's episode is the debut of our "Market Price" feature, where Sami quizzes Benjamin about various optional extras on a few popular cars, both mainstream and exotic. How much paint can adaptive cruise control cost? Why won't the guys discuss wheel pricing? What about center caps? How much is it all worth? Enjoy and thanks for listening.
En este nuevo episodio de AutoFM te traemos un repaso completo a la actualidad más curiosa, sorprendente y relevante del motor. Arrancamos con el nuevo Mitsubishi ASX híbrido, una opción con etiqueta ECO que busca conquistar el segmento de los SUV compactos con eficiencia y tecnología práctica. También te contamos todos los detalles de la Suzuki Burgman 400, que se actualiza para cumplir la normativa Euro 5+ y añade nuevos colores sin renunciar a su filosofía de scooter cómodo y fiable. Seguimos con el nuevo Lancia Ypsilon, que ya tiene precio en España y anuncia su esperada versión deportiva HF completamente eléctrica. Y por supuesto, analizamos todo lo que ha dado de sí la última edición del Ayvens Ecomotion Tour, donde Citroën, MG y Volkswagen se han coronado como los más eficientes entre más de 30 vehículos electrificados en condiciones reales. Además, viajamos a Italia para hablarte de una nueva normativa que prohíbe los radares camuflados, una medida contra el afán recaudatorio que está dando mucho que hablar en toda Europa. Y cerramos con una historia tan real como increíble: la fuga de un viejo Seat Córdoba TDi que dejó en evidencia a más de una decena de modernos PHEV de la policía en una persecución a más de 200 km/h por Madrid Todos los podcast: https://www.podcastmotor.es Twitter: @AutoFmRadio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/autofmradio/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AutoFM Contacto: info@autofm.es

It has Sami rethinking his entire thought process revolving the German automaker, and the hosts talk more about what that means. Then the guys give a short primer for what to expect in the next few episodes. Thanks for listening!

We can thank TECHNOLOGY for bringing us the Unnamed Automotive Podcast this week, but we can also BLAME it for making Sami's life difficult during his week-long test of the 2025 Volvo EX90 EV. With a huge battery, over 500-hp and plenty of driving range, the EX90 should be a slam dunk in the world of three-row EVs, but Sami shares the many frustrations he experienced while driving this vehicle. Most issues revolve around the infotainment system and a minimalist approach to controls, which makes usually easy tasks quite distracting. Then Benjamin shares his thoughts on the all-new, and finally available in the US, 2025 BMW M5 Touring (Wagon.) The big, plug-in hybrid, high-performance wagon shows it can be a bit of everything in one tidy package. Is that special enough? Why is Sami so over it already? The guys talk about their thoughts on this amazing BMW and figure out 'why now?" And finally, the hosts tackle some listener questions and comments about the Hyundai Santa Cruz, and the scary future of used car software. Thanks for listening!
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.
In this episode: full breakdown on the newly released specs and pricing on the GWM Cannon Alpha PHEV. (The Chinese carmaker's new 300kW plug-in hybrid dual-cab ute.)
Toyota this week revealed its sixth generation RAV4 SUV due in the firsthalf of 2026.

The Unnamed Automotive Podcast gets their helmets on, beefs up their suspension, and hits the unpaved road this week as our hosts review two rally-inspired cars. The show starts off with Benjamin's review of the Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally, which gets more power, stylish upgrades and extra armor for its battery, all for tackling the great unpaved wilderness. However, weight and grip may have shifted Benjamin's experience with this all-weather EV. Then Sami jumps into an honest-to-goodness, high-performance Toyota, with the GR Corolla. Yes, it's designed by Toyota, developed by Toyota and made by them too, but in this episode, Sami gets to try out the automatic version of this rally-oriented hot hatch. The conversation drifts its way through the typical hot-hatch territory, as the guys talk about some of their favorites in the segment. Thanks for listening!
APRIL 2025 NEW CAR REGISTRATION FIGURESAs expected, the new car registration figures for April 2025, were down following the jump in March prior to the tax changes. The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) explained how there was a ten percent drop, year-on-year. However, BEV and PHEV registrations rose, but are not near the levels needed to comply with the ZEV mandate. Once again the SMMT called on the Government to assist the industry and buyers.

You are cordially invited to the episode 405 of the Unnamed Automotive Podcast, where the hosts will deliberate on two of the most high-end SUVs available on the market. Grab your monocles, have a plate of caviar, and take a seat upon one of our exclusive thrones made solely of materials mined only from the dark side of the moon. This weeks show starts off with Benjamins sharp witted review of the 2025 Mercedes-Benz G550. A high-end SUV with humble beginnings and limited generational changes, this time around it's got a whole new motor, design and high class interior, one so fancy that Benjamin had to take extra precautions when hauling stuff around. What does the G-Class mean these days? Is it something to be celebrated or shunned for being too excessive? Then the guys take some time to talk about the 2025 Land Rover Range Rover Autobiography, a seven-seat ode to royal British motoring. Outfitted with the right equipment for towing, hauling, and ferrying passengers around, Benjamin explains how the experience in this SUV was totally different than the Benz, even though the two vehicles share similar price points. Thanks for listening!
FOLLOW UP: EU IS NOT BANNING CARBON FIBREThanks to listener, Alexander Aucken, we now know that the EU is not banning carbon fibre.

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. Finally, our guys talk about the new Slate EV, a bare-bones $25,000 EV pickup a ton of customizability. Is this what people want?

First the show starts off with a review of the 2025 Aston Martin DBX 707, a ultra-high-performance exotic from one of the top British automakers. Faced with all kinds of inclement weather during his testing, Benjamin has a thorough take on this hyper SUV, and comes to a decisive conclusion about it, especially in comparison to some other high-hp SUVs out there. Then Sami offers several impressions of the 2025 Acura MDX A-Spec, which gets a mild exterior refresh and some important interior changes too. While the vehicle feels responsive with a well-tuned powertrain and ride, Sami says it fails to make an impact in a very competitive segment. The guys also jump through a few thoughts about in-car audio systems, and if 31 speakers is too many or just enough. Thanks for listening!
The show starts off with Benjamin's review of the 2025 Mini Cooper Countryman SE All4, an all wheel drive, electric 'ute that manages to stay small, affordable and impressive to drive. What's the downside? Try the weird user interface and get back to us; or don't and listen to Benjamins gripes of the infotainment system, and his overall take on this Mini EV. Then Sami tries his hardest to not talk about the 2025 Honda HR-V, by first discussing the history of the Fit subcompact, and the era of Honda when it wasn't afraid of doing things it's own way. The new HR-V is lacking any personality, while being worse than many of its rivals in key specs like fuel economy and pricing. Sami asks what's the point? The guys finish up by discussing lease-friendly EVs to answer a listener question.
The Unnamed Automotive Podcast breaks into the big 4-0-0, but this week's episode lacks much fanfare or frills. After a brief discussion about the 399+ episodes that came before today, the guys dive right into talking about the new cars they've been testing. Sami delivers his verdict of the 2025 Acura RDX, a luxury SUV that goes against some very impressive rivals and has a few things to rave about, but a few more things that question the brand's commitment to the segment. Then Benjamin talks about a new powertrain option found in the Ford Ranger, one that may be faster than other, more performance oriented trucks. While the Ranger is smaller than an F-Series, it has a few important benefits, and Benjamin runs you through them all. Thanks everyone for listening to 400 (and more) episodes. We can't wait to deliver even more in the coming months and years!
Dive into the electrified future of SUVs as we explore two distinctly different approaches to modern transportation. Our hands-on review of the 2024 Chevy Equinox EV reveals the practical realities of living with an all-electric vehicle – from its impressive 319-mile factory range to the sometimes frustrating home charging experience that adds just 2.1 miles per hour. The Equinox EV impresses with its technology package, featuring a massive 17.1-inch display, heads-up display, and surround view camera. But does the Google-based infotainment system measure up for Apple users? We break down everything from the surprisingly quiet ride to the real-world implications of battery degradation over the eight-year warranty period.Between our vehicle reviews, we take an entertaining detour into NASCAR history, examining the sport's most intimidating and aggressive personalities. From Dale Earnhardt's commanding presence to Kyle Busch's firebrand style, these drivers defined racing with attitude rather than just skill, creating some of motorsport's most memorable moments.Our second featured vehicle, the 2025 Mazda CX-90 PHEV, showcases a different approach to electrification with its plug-in hybrid powertrain delivering 323 combined horsepower. While the front seats offer exceptional comfort surrounded by premium materials, the second and third rows received less favorable reviews. Most importantly, we discuss how the impending 25% tariff on Japanese imports after April 3rd will significantly impact pricing for vehicles like this luxury SUV.Whether you're considering your first electric vehicle, curious about hybrid technology, or simply enjoy discussions about automotive culture, this episode delivers practical insights and entertaining perspectives on the evolving transportation landscape.

First up, Sami has a Ford Mustang Mach-E to talk about, but gasp! Its from last year? It still features a cool new upgrade that adds extra power, prompting our hosts to talk about these downloadable mods. What would they reasonably add to a car via a download button? Butterflies, weird algorithms and maybe some growing and fading vines are all on the table for Sami and Benjamin. Then Benjamin continues his fancy-pants parade of luxury cars as he reviews the 2025 Genesis G80. Refreshed for this year with a new look inside and out, Benjamin wonders if the Korean luxury brand still has the 'it' factor that made it so appealing when it first debuted. Benjamin explains what's happening with the G80 with all this context (and more.) Thanks for listening!

The Unnamed Automotive Podcast tackles a plug-in hybrid luxury sedan sporting a similar name to an old V8 powered favorite. Benjamin has put the 2025 BMW 550e through its paces to see what the German automaker has done with electrifying its new-generation 5 Series. The result is nothing short of impressive, as the 550e seems to deliver on efficiency, performance and technology. But is it fun to drive? Then Sami brings up a listener question about reliability of established automakers, before finishing this weeks show with a discussion on automotive merch and bonuses. Thanks for listening!
The Unnamed Automotive Podcast gets some second opinions this week. Today's show starts with Sami's review of the 2025 Toyota Crown, a car than Benjamin drove a few years ago. 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!

Todays episode starts with a review of the 2025 Volvo EX30 that struggles to get a recommendation from both Benjamin and Sami. Benjamin explains the many reasons for his lack of endorsement with this small and affordable EV, but they all seem to revolve around its underbaked software. Then Sami reviews the 2025 Ram 1500 Rebel, which gets a whole new engine... and a new check engine light. Fortunately the warning light didn't stop the review, where Sami discusses the many pros and cons of this off-road oriented truck, but comes across struggling to put the Ram in a positive light, especially compared to better rivals.

The show starts with Benjamin's take on the 2025 Subaru Forester, a car we haven't talked about for nearly three years! With a new generation and new lineup, Benjamin goes down memory lane to talk about what the Forester represented, and uses the new model to explain how Subaru has moved away from STI towards a more successful marketing strategy and lineup. He also shares what makes this Forester so good in the way appliances can often be. Then Sami brings up the 2025 Lincoln Aviator he recently piloted for a wintery getaway. Loaded with massage seats, hands-free driving technology, and tons of creature comforts, he seemed impressed, until he checked out the rest of the Lincoln lineup, and remembered the PHEV model from the past... Is the Aviator caught in a holding pattern? Then the guys quickly discuss a listener comment before signing off. Thanks for listening!

This podcast reviews the Mercedes-AMG E 53 Hybrid, highlighting its powerful performance (577 horsepower, 0-60 mph in 3.9 seconds) and environmental features (42-mile all-electric range, 23 mpg combined). The article discusses the car's luxurious interior and advanced technology, but also notes its high price point ($88,000 - $118,000). The author concludes that while the vehicle represents a step toward sustainable performance, its accessibility and overall environmental impact depend on owner usage and charging infrastructure.
