You know the channel jumped the shark when it recommends the ID Buzz.

Once you said ID Buzz, Im out. Try getting one under 70k. Plus lack of range . Much better options out there

I can't imagine making over 200 review videos in 8 months! And remaining enthusiastic about cars.

I definitely agree with the first choice, Golf R, especially the estate we get here in Europe is just awesome, and also ID Buzz is definitely the best family hauler currently on sale, it just looks so funky ;) Also, Porsche 911 is no question (with all different versions), but missing Audi E-Tron GT, Aston Martin Vantage, Great video, keep it up!

Here at Edmunds, there are cars coming and going all of the time, so it felt like a good chance to share which ones are the best we've tested so far this year. And the back half of the year promises to be just as exciting as the first. So what new cars are on the horizon that you can't wait to see us test? Let us know in the comments below!

New cars I’m looking forward to later this year include BMW Neue Klasse sedan and SUV, and the Nissan Leaf.

Seems like the Electrified GV70 would be the sweet spot. The luxury of the gas GV70, combined with the quietness, smoothness, quickness, and fast charging of the Ioniq 5

Every chord in this song is like a genetic sequence, notes pairing up, crossing over, mutating into melody, splicing together a lineage of emotion.

I paused my music for this and it was worth it.
