First up Sami talks about the 2024 Volvo XC40 Recharge, which is now available in a more efficient, longer range, rear-wheel-drive model. Sami fills us in about all the changes for this years car along with what works and what doesn't (spoiler: its the infotainment system, it's ALWAYS the infotainment system.) Then Benjamin talks about the 2023 Honda Passport Elite, and how it fits in the grand scheme of things as a mid-sized off-roader, especially compared to the rugged looking Trailsport model

First up Benjamin talks about the 2023 Genesis Electrified GV70, and whether the Korean automaker has successfully adapted an electric powertrain to a popular gas powered crossover. Along with its hidden charge port, Ben discusses how Genesis made this car a reality and why it stands out against other EV rivals. Then the guys talk about their own recent car buying experiences, and why they struggled to find the perfect fit for their needs among their enthusiast mindsets. But Benjamin closes the

Typically you hear the Unnamed Automotive Podcast discuss the latest and greatest new cars, which are loaded to the brim with all the features you can think of. But this week, your hosts have their chance to drive some lesser equipped vehicles, which allow for some thorough testing. First up Sami talks about his time in the 2023 Mercedes Benz GLC 300, which has been updated to a level that should satisfy even the most skeptical Mercedes fan. But the GLC has a few fatal flaws, namely with its

The sun's out and it's hot, so of course it's a perfect time to hear the latest episode of the Unnamed Automotive Podcast, especially since we've got one of the few sub-$100k roadsters left on the market to discuss. To save you the trouble of guessing, we'll just say it's the drop top Toyota Supra, aka the 2023 BMW X4, which has been lightly refreshed ("kinda" according to Benjamin.) The Z4 has apparently gotten quicker thanks to the fusion of some some German and Japanese witchcraft, and Benjamin

The boys are back in podcast form to give you some hot takes like you've never heard! Following his stint in the 2023 Nissan Z Sami has a lot of feelings about the new Japanese sports car. While it lacks involvement from another automaker, Sami says the new Z packs a ton of power but has a few drawbacks that makes it struggle to stand out. The whole ordeal has the guys asking "what's going on over over at Nissan?" Then Benjamin gets his kicks in the 2023 Land Rover Range Rover, which now arrives

Expectations can be a confounding thing. This week our hosts get to talk about when expectations go awry, starting with the 2024 Mazda CX-90, a large, premium three-row SUV that plays the role of flagship vehicle for the small Japanese brand. Benjamin discusses why the new car has such high hopes, and whether it meets those lofty goals through the use of a turbo-inline-six cylinder engine, a rear-wheel-drive platform and an all new infotainment system. Can Mazda really leapfrog over the other

What's good Unnamed Automotive Podcast listeners? We'll tell you what isn't: the two vehicles the guys are talking about this week. First up is the 2023 Toyota Sequoia, which Benjamin points out has some highs and lows, but mostly lows with a vehicle with a limited audience, even though it's been thoroughly redesigned. Packing three rows and a hybrid powertrain, the Sequoia has a small audience, and one that doesn't seem to be growing in any significant way, but wait till you hear Ben's description

2023/08/06

First up, Benjamin drives the 2023 BMW M2, which leaves him with a far different impression from when he first heard about the performance oriented coupe. Bigger, faster, and just over $60,000, our host thinks the M2 is making some other performance cars completely irrelevant, despite some claiming that it's missing the original M2 ethos. Then Sami jumps in to complete his recent truck testing treasure trove by taking the smallest option on the market, the 2023 Ford Maverick Tremor. Notable the

A new pony car has arrived on the scene just as all of its competitors are departing. Sami tells us all about his time in the 2024 Ford Mustang, starting with the EcoBoost model and its auto-only setup and then the real-deal GT with its 5.0-liter V8 engine. While that's enough for most, the Mustang seems loaded gimmicky features like drift brake, remote rev, line-lock and retro-themed digital dashes. Is it even trying at this point as all of its rivals wave from the sidelines, or is this the best

Boring, uninspired, mediocre are words you wouldn't use to describe the Unnamed Automotive Podcast, but perhaps they're sprinked throughout this week's discussions as Benjamin dishes about his time with the 2023 Toyota bZ4X. Toyotas first mainstream all electic vehicle, the 'beezforks' (shout-out to Abigail Bassett) represents a whole new space for the Japanese automaker, but it seems like there are many things holding the car back from truly succeeding.

Don't say the guys at the helm of the Unnamed Automotive Podcast don't give you their all, as Benjamin records right through a storm to give you some fresh new content. First up Benjamin talks about the refreshed 2023 BMW M340i. The Bavarian automaker has a new strategy in mind for its future cars, and this 3 Series sees some interesting changes, especially in the cabin. As Benjamin goes on a long road trip, he experiences the highs and lows of the entry level sport sedan and bares all for you to

Luxury knows few bounds, and that lack of limits extends itself to the Unnamed Automotive Podcast this week. First up is the 2023 GMC Canyon Denali, a high-end version of a premium mid-sized pickup . As the Canyon is only available with a 2.7L turbo engine and with a specific cab and bed arrangement, it'll be interesting to hear how Benjamin feels about this so-called luxury truck—and of course, whether General Motors can get its build quality up to snuff. Then Sami talks about electrification in

The automotive world doesn't revolve solely around crossovers, as the Unnamed Automotive Podcast dives into the world of NEW sedans, wagons and sportbacks in this episode. First Sami drives the amped up 2024 Audi RS6 Avant Performance and Audi RS7 Sportback Performance models. Featuring more power, more grip, better handling and a fancier cabin, these expensive luxury cars seem to be the total package, so long as you ignore the price that can net you multiple cars for the sum of one new Audi.

Keep your guard up, as cool cars can come from any direction, this week on the Unnamed Automotive Podcast. First up this week, the guys dive back into the world of GR, or Gazoo Racing, as Benjamin shares his thoughts on driving the 2023 Toyota GR Corolla. This all-wheel-drive, manual-only hot hatch features 300 horsepower and a rally-influenced design, but Benjamin comes away with some unique impressions as the Corolla may not be as refined or well-behaved as one might expect.

Compact cars galore this week on the Unnamed Automotive Podcast as the guys riff about the 2024 Subaru Impreza that Sami recently tested. With no sedan or manual options, along with a "sporty" RS trim, this new Impreza seems a bit limited in terms of its appeal. Is this a better or worse buy than the very similar Crosstrek? Is Subaru just phoning in its hatchbacks? Listen to hear the final word! Then Benjamin brings up the 2023 Acura Integra, something both of our hosts have tested and have many

First up this week, Sami explains the theory behind the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander, and whether Grand is a title that is earned through service and recognition, or just one that is bestowed due to size. This new Toyota boasts three rows of seats, three different powertrains and a cool new infotainment system, but Sami points out a few concerns he has with this pricey crossover. Then Benjamin takes a tangent to talk about the 2023 Lexus RX 350h, one of the luxury brands most popular products that

The weather is warming up and that means its time to talk about some fun summer cars and topics! If you're asking "What does that mean?" then consider this week's episode as a primer. First up, Benjamin revisits the 2023 Toyota GR Supra, but this time its equipped with a six-speed manual transmission. After a lukewarm reception a few years ago, Benjamin finds out if the three-pedalled variant changes things for the better, and whether the Supra is in a precarious position due to its pricing and

Can the Lightning power up a stranded EV? Sami begs Benjamin to tell us if the future of electric trucks bleak or promising. Then Sami talks about a pair of plug-in hybrid crossovers.
