In this episode, we dive deep into some of the most anticipated new cars, EVs, and trucks hitting the market. We kick things off with a first look at the insane new Mercedes-AMG GT four-door electric car. This high-performance EV packs a staggering 1,153 horsepower and can blast from 0 to 60 mph in a blistering 2.0 seconds, though its bold, catfish-inspired styling and screen-heavy layout spark an intense debate about the future of luxury cars. Next, we shift gears to the affordable side of automotive design with the updated Kia Seltos. Sampled on the streets of South Korea, this value-packed model delivers a rugged "baby Telluride" look and a premium cabin for under $30,000. We also preview the highly anticipated Volvo EX60, a new all-electric SUV that leverages a fast Snapdragon processor to cure past software bugs while targeting a 400-mile range. Finally, we contrast passenger cars with the truck market, highlighting the new factory sport truck Ram 1500 variants. Ram is leaning into heritage strengths with its high-performance Ram Rumble Bee family, peaking with a 777-horsepower Hellcat engine. Whether you love screaming V8s or cutting-edge electric cars, we've got something for every enthusiast.

Love the design of the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-door , Inside and out. I'm used to having a lot a screen inches in my cars in the last ±5 - 6 years so this doesnt seem abnormal to me and I like it.

Guys great podcast episode, glad you are now on YouTube, can't wait to hear the episode about the EV that broke the internet this year 😅 And the Volvo EX60 is for me the clear choice over BMW iX3 and Mercedes GLC electric

The Mercedes EV is objectively ugly catfish. The Ferrari is objectively a fine looking car, it just doesn’t look like a Ferrari. That said, the aferrari is no where near as ugly as that Mercedes and it’s underbite

That Volvo EX60 P12 with the big battery and 400mi range will be $70,000+. Thats a tough sell, especially given it's owned by China now. It's also 800-900lbs heavier than a Model Y!
