Podcasts about road test

This week on America on the Road, Jack Nerad and Chris Teague road test and review two very different Hyundais — the futuristic 2026 Ioniq 9 battery-electric three-row SUV and the realistic 2026 Tucson XRT. They also offer details on Ford's aggressive new Explorer ST Sinister package and premium Bronco Filson edition, Lucid's major Gravity software update, Subaru's enhanced 2027 BRZ, and Audi's stunning 1,001-hp Nuvolari supercar. Our special guest is Demo Days founder BJ Birtwell with news about an exciting series of events that will unfold through the balance of the year.

This week on America on the Road, Jack Nerad and Chris Teague review two strong performers — the luxurious 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit and the fun 2026 Mazda CX-30 2.5 Turbo. They also cover Kia's major Sportage Hybrid production launch on scene in Georgia, look at record hybrid sales from Hyundai and Kia, critique Toyota's updated GR86, and discuss the all-new Bentley Flying Spur. Their special guest is car-buying expert Charlie Daniel.

Short Description David Brown and Paul Murrell discuss a different approach to driver education, arguing that financial incentives can encourage safer, smoother driving habits. They examine shifting EV sales trends, BMW's electric success, the preservation of grand railway stations, and the changing language of luxury motoring at Rolls-Royce. The program also explores Audi's abandoned Procon-Ten safety system before reviewing the BMW i4 electric coupe and the Suzuki Jimny three-door off-roader. Episode Breakdown • Young Driver Training & Motivation — 00:01:24 • BMW EV Growth & Market Trends — 00:08:09 • Saving Grand Railway Stations — 00:15:25 • Rolls-Royce in the Electric Era — 00:20:47 • Audi Procon-Ten Safety Innovation — 00:26:20 • BMW i4 Road Test — 00:33:06 • Suzuki Jimny Road Test — 00:40:46 Young Driver Training & Motivation The discussion focuses on teaching young drivers through financial awareness as well as safety. Smoother acceleration, better anticipation and gentler braking can reduce fuel use, lower running costs and minimise vehicle wear. The hosts also compare Australian driver training with Germany's more structured approach and emphasise anticipation as a core driving skill. BMW EV Growth & Market Trends BMW celebrates production of its two-millionth EV while maintaining strong electric vehicle sales in Australia. The conversation explores why premium brands may be leading EV adoption and examines changing market dynamics, including growing competition from Chinese brands and evolving consumer expectations around electric cars. Saving Grand Railway Stations A tribute to preservation campaigner Margot Wellington leads into a broader discussion about the architectural and cultural value of major railway stations. Grand Central Terminal, Penn Station, King's Cross and Australian stations are used as examples of how transport infrastructure can become civic landmarks and community hubs. Rolls-Royce in the Electric Era Rolls-Royce's electric Spectre prompts a light-hearted examination of luxury marketing language. Beyond performance figures and regenerative braking, the hosts poke fun at extravagant descriptions of materials, craftsmanship and design features that accompany modern ultra-luxury vehicles. Audi Procon-Ten Safety Innovation Paul revisits Audi's Procon-Ten system, a cable-and-pulley safety mechanism designed before airbags became dominant. The segment highlights how technological dead ends still contribute to progress by helping engineers learn what works and what doesn't in vehicle safety development. BMW i4 Road Test The BMW i4 impresses with its styling, driving dynamics, interior design and overall refinement. While real-world range falls short of official expectations, the hosts agree it remains a genuine BMW driver's car that happens to be electric rather than an EV designed around novelty. Suzuki Jimny Road Test The compact Suzuki Jimny continues to attract a loyal following thanks to its character, simplicity and off-road capability. Despite modest performance, limited cargo space and rising prices, its charm, practicality and distinctive personality keep it at the centre of Suzuki's Australian success. Program Links and Credits Overdrive is hosted by David Brown with contributions from Paul Murrell. Produced for the Community Radio Network. Cars • Transport • Culture.

Jack and Chris also discuss Polestar's ambitious landmark study to measure the thrill of driving, Audi's advanced Digital Matrix headlights coming to the U.S., and Uber's latest safety technologies. They also dive into the controversies surrounding the debuts of Ferrari's first-ever EV, the Luce, and Mercedes-AMG's ultra-powerful new electric GT.

Look, let's keep it 100—the last week has been a disaster. Dropping back-to-back games to first-year expansion teams Boston Legacy FC and Denver Summit FC is flat-out unacceptable for a squad with this much talent.

This week on America on the Road, Jack Nerad and Chris Teague review two very different SUVs — the luxurious 2026 Genesis GV80 3.5T Prestige and the practical 2026 Subaru Solterra electric crossover. They also discuss Ford F-150 shortages, millions of vehicles with unresolved backup camera recalls, Tesla's safety test success, MINI's safety push, and Lexus's new three-row EV.

Gainey has built something real — Hammond, Edmead, Evans, McNeil, Adams, Yalaho, Keene, and now Kingston Whitty as the first high school commit. But we're keeping it honest tonight. What's still missing? Is the frontcourt deep enough? Can Darius Adams bounce back from a rough freshman year? We're asking the hard questions.On the women's basketball side, Wes Moore is reloading fast. Khamil Pierre is back. Desiree Wooten just committed out of Colorado — 13.4 PPG, All-Big 12 Honorable Mention. Khady Leye adds size. Two top-100 freshmen coming in. But Trygger and Jones are gone. Is this roster better, worse, or just different?And baseball heads to Stanford on Friday for the first regular season meeting ever between these programs — last time they played was the 2021 College World Series. NC State won that one 10-4. The road struggles are real this year though. Can this team finally win away from Doak when it matters?

Send us Fan MailLife continues to throw a lot at me (I'm sure we can all relate) but I did get to take another road trip to the mountains with my sweetie. We were road tested on a few issues including broken down rental cars and hotel accessibility and I started thinking about what you learn about yourself when you travel. That inspired a new episode (coming soon) about romantic movies featuring characters who leave home to explore new horizons, and in between the ice cream, sightseeing, luxury hotel beds, Tuscan villa renos and arguments with companions of all sorts, learn something important about themselves.

Hour 3 of JJ & Alex with Jeremiah Jensen and Alex Kirry. Riley Nelson, former BYU quarterback Utah Jazz at Denver Nuggets Best and Worst of the Day

Statement win sets up a pivotal Week 15 The Detroit Lions are back in the win column. A Thursday night win over the Cowboys steadied the season and kept the heat off. The offense looked like itself again. The defense forced turnovers, hit Dak Prescott, and finished plays with sacks. That combination travels in the NFL, and it mattered here. An in-game twist changed the shape of Dallas' attack. CeeDee Lamb exited, and the Cowboys struggled to land counters without their top weapon. Detroit seized control with pressure and opportunism. The front won early downs. Short fields and extra possessions followed. The result pushed the Lions forward and put a dent in Dallas' postseason hopes. The Detroit Lions Podcast framed it like a play-in vibe. Not literally, with four games left, but close. A crisis averted. A win that reset the pulse and moved focus to Week 15 versus the Rams. Secondary in flux after Branch's Achilles The price was heavy. Branch suffered an Achilles injury. It's brutal, not only for his talent but his versatility. He can trigger downhill, play single high, rotate as a split safety, and man up in the slot. That toolbox is hard to replace on the back end. Safety remains unsettled. There is doubt about a Kirby Joseph return. The room has seen looks at veterans such as Jalen Mills and Damontae Kazee. Avonte Maddox appears first in line for more work. He flashed against Dallas. He closed space, nearly stole a pick, and read routes with confidence. One chest-high deflection could have been six the other way. Another break on a tight end route forced a modest gain instead of a chunk. Depth took more hits. Thomas Harper is in concussion protocol after a scary moment. That leaves Detroit balancing personnel with structure. There is a path here. Earlier this season, a shorthanded group versus Washington leaned into more zone concepts. It wasn't simple, but it fit the lineup and looked sharp. With DJ Reed and Terrion Arnold back, the defense leaned heavily on man coverage again. That works if quick pressure arrives. Without it, the risk spikes. The question now: blend? Dial up zone on early downs, sprinkle man on money downs, and let the rush dictate. With Branch out, the call sheet must protect leverage and angles while keeping the pass rush connected to coverage. What travels to Rams week Week 15 brings the Rams and a fresh stress test. Detroit's pass rush just changed a game. It needs to do it again. Turnovers fueled the win over Dallas. They must show up on the road. The coverage plan is the hinge. Maddox's snaps matter. Reed and Arnold's technique and eye discipline matter. So does tackling after the catch. The formula is clear. Start fast. Hit the quarterback. Win takeaways. Keep the secondary out of isolation for long stretches.

The USC 2025 football season is well underway after a Week 2 win over Georgia Southern in the Clay Helton Bowl. Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino were both on the sidelines from the Coliseum for a front-row seat to USC's 59-20 win over the Eagles.  Trevino and Spratling dive into their 'Two-Minute Drill' with the former taking time to talk about the emotions of seeing Helton once again in the Coliseum while Spratling takes the time to show some extra love for senior defensive end Anthony Lucas recording the first two sacks of his career.  The Helium Boys dive into their Stock Up, Stock Down segment, which includes USC's offensive line, the running back room, the duo of Makai Lemon and Ja'Kobi Lane and the Trojans' early sack production.  The Helium Boys then dive into the second half of the show to preview Purdue, which represent USC's Big Ten opener and first road game of the season. This is a reunion game for a multitude of reasons: USC starting QB Jayden Maiava played under Odom at UNLV in 2023, guiding them to the Mountain West Championship game. Former USC offensive line coach and offensive coordinator Josh Henson left the Trojans this offseason to be the offensive coordinator with the Boilermakers. Henson was part of Lincoln Riley's initial staff in 2022. Former USC wide receiver Charles Ross was on the team but was forced to medically retire. Former USC and Georgia wideout Michael Jackson III is one of the top contributors.  The podcasting duo then answer your questions about everything from the recruiting impact of USC's 2-0 start to double coverage potentials to Caleb Williams' reputation. Following the questions, Chris takes the reins for the 'Take It or Leave It' segment along with the 'Overtime' period, which includes Amelia Earhart, Purdue Pete, a special boilermaker and a live mascot discussion. We release new episodes of the Peristyle Podcast nearly every day during the season. National recruiting analyst Gerard Martinez, longtime coach and football guru Harvey Hyde, reporters Chris Trevino, Connor Morrissette and Shotgun Spratling plus special guests join publisher Ryan Abraham on the podcast to bring you the latest USC Trojan football team news and recruiting information.
