2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid & 2026 Mazda CX-90 PHEV: Series Hybrid Smoothness Meets Premium PHEV Power
This week on America on the Road, host Jack Nerad is joined by guest co-host Matt DeLorenzo for a packed episode of industry news and road tests. They discuss Stellantis’s improving North American results, strong projected October sales, General Motors’ long-overdue move into hybrids, and Honda’s warning about potential 50% tariffs on Canadian-built vehicles. Matt delivers a first drive of the all-new 2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid, while Jack tests the 2026 Mazda CX-90 PHEV Premium Plus. Special guest Derek Joyce, product expert, joins to discuss the 2027 Hyundai Tucson. Listener question of the week comes from Steve in Tacoma, Washington. 🚗 Matt DeLorenzo’s Road Test: 2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid Nissan brings back a hybrid Rogue for 2027, this time as a series hybrid (e-Power). Twin electric motors (one per axle) provide all-wheel drive and 225 total horsepower, while a 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine acts purely as a generator with no mechanical connection to the wheels and no CVT. The result is EV-like smoothness and quietness, with the engine only becoming noticeable under hard acceleration. EPA estimates are 40 mpg city / 36 highway / 38 combined. The SR trim tested features Zero Gravity seats, a 14.3-inch screen, contemporary styling, and more than 30 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row. Pricing starts around $36,000 for the SR; SV and Platinum trims follow. Both hosts found it a strong, practical compact SUV that should help revive Nissan’s fortunes against rivals such as the RAV4, CR-V, and Santa Fe. ⚡ Jack Nerad’s Road Test: 2026 Mazda CX-90 PHEV Premium Plus Mazda’s three-row plug-in hybrid sits at the top of the lineup and blends luxury, performance, and electrification. The system pairs an inline-six with electric assistance for 323 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque, sent through an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive with a rear-biased feel. Electric-only range is rated at 26 miles; combined MPGe is 56. 0-60 comes in about six seconds despite a roughly 5,200-pound curb weight. The Premium Plus trim offers Nappa leather, heated/ventilated seats (including heated second-row captain’s chairs), adaptive LED lighting, and a firm, engaging chassis that prioritizes Zoom-Zoom dynamics. Cargo space and third-row room are a bit tighter than some rivals, and the modest EV range requires consistent plugging in to maximize benefits. At around $60,000 fully loaded, it delivers understated premium character without a traditional luxury badge. 📈 Stellantis Signs of Recovery Stellantis (Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Chrysler) posted a still-substantial $505 million quarterly loss but showed clear improvement. Ram sales rose 30 percent (Ram 1500 up 73 percent, helped by V8 availability), Dodge Durango climbed 14 percent, and Chrysler Pacifica gained 6 percent. The company is gaining North American market share as truck demand rebounds and regulatory pressure on fuel economy and pure EVs eases, allowing it to better amortize earlier EV investments. 📊 Strong October Sales Outlook Cox Automotive forecasts U.S. new-vehicle sales of 1.38 million units in October—up 7.2 percent year-over-year and 3.6 percent from September—pushing the full-year seasonally adjusted annual rate toward 16.1 million. Strength is concentrated in more affordable subcompact and compact SUVs/cr

Special from North American Car of the Year Testing in Ann Arbor
This week on America on the Road, host Jack Nerad and frequent guest co-host Matt DeLorenzo record a special on-location episode from North American Car of the Year testing in Ann Arbor, Michigan. They explain the awards process, discuss the state of the auto industry heading into the 2027 model year, and share first impressions of the strong Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year fields after driving candidates back-to-back. 🏆 North American Car of the Year Explained Matt, a founding juror, outlines the annual program that brings eligible new vehicles together for efficient comparison drives. Awards cover Car of the Year, Truck of the Year, and Utility of the Year (added 15 years ago as SUVs dominated). The jury of roughly 50 diverse journalists from print, broadcast, web, and influencer backgrounds pays annual dues and judges independently on merit. This year’s field is heavily weighted toward utilities (a full dozen), with far fewer cars and trucks. 📈 State of the Industry As backdrop to the awards, Jack and Matt note major flux as EVs developed under earlier mandates and subsidies arrive amid changed policy and economics. Batteries remain costly; pure-EV range and price still limit broader adoption. They see growing strength in hybrids (including series-hybrids like the Nissan Rogue) and continued ICE relevance, especially for trucks and road-trip needs. Matt’s 10-year outlook: roughly 25% pure EV (a win if achieved), 60%+ hybrid, and the balance mostly ICE for heavy-duty use. Electrification of drivetrains is the clearer trend than an all-EV future. 🚙 North American Utility of the Year Standouts Rivian R2 Highly anticipated smaller EV SUV with hot-hatch-inspired design (VW investment influence). Quick and quiet, but both found the ride harsh (“buckboard”) and the switchless interior frustrating (difficult mirror and steering adjustments via screen/thumbwheels). Still not fully polished. Volvo EX60 Standout EV. Quiet, quick, comfortable, and compliant. Improved screen layout and strong overall execution; priced more attractively than the struggling EX30. Audi SQ9 / Q9 Polished three-row luxury SUV. Excellent suspension tuning, strong V8 character, thoughtful mix of screens and conventional controls, advanced lighting features, and available second-row captain’s chairs. Expensive but highly refined.

Toyota Tundra TRD Pro & Prius Nightshade Road Tests
This week on America on the Road, Jack Nerad is joined by guest co-host Matt DeLorenzo (Chris Teague is off). They deliver two Toyota road tests, discuss Volkswagen’s upcoming electric ID.Tiguan, the return of the Nissan Rogue hybrid, and several intriguing North American Utility of the Year contenders, including the Rivian R2, Jeep Grand Wagoneer REEV, Toyota Highlander EV, and Jeep Recon. 🛻 Matt DeLorenzo Road Test: Toyota Tundra TRD Pro Matt samples Toyota’s full-size off-road pickup. The TRD Pro rides on 33-inch Falcon Wildpeak tires with a near-two-inch factory lift, Fox shocks, and rugged suspension. Its 3.4-liter twin-turbo V6 delivers 438 hp and 583 lb-ft of torque, with towing capacity over 11,000 pounds. A 10-speed automatic, limited-slip differential, high/low ranges, and rock-crawling mode add capability. Matt notes the tall climb into the cabin, strong low-end torque, compliant ride, 14-inch touchscreen, and eye-catching Wave Maker Blue paint with camo-texture black accents. Real-world fuel economy hovered around 16 mpg. As-tested price exceeded $77,000. 🚗 Jack Nerad Road Test: Toyota Prius Nightshade Plug-in Hybrid Jack evaluates the stylish Prius Nightshade PHEV. It offers roughly 39–40 miles of electric range, strong hybrid efficiency, refined driving manners, and practical features including soft-touch heated seats, heated steering wheel, available 12.3-inch screen, and solid safety tech. Jack and Matt both praise the looks and efficiency but note the steeply raked roofline makes rear (and sometimes front) access challenging. Base Nightshade pricing starts near $37,000–$38,000; the tested example stickered at $41,304. A conventional Corolla Hybrid is flagged as a more practical, less expensive alternative for some buyers. 🔋 2027 Volkswagen ID.Tiguan VW is replacing the underperforming ID.4 with an all-electric Tiguan, first in Europe then North America. The move aims to leverage the popular Tiguan nameplate, share body panels, and boost volume at the Chattanooga plant after ID.4 sales fell far short of projections. 🔄 2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid Nissan returns the Rogue hybrid with a series-hybrid system (engine acts as a generator; electric motors drive the wheels). Expected ~38 mpg combined, 225 hp, one-pedal driving capability, and pricing starting around $35,000–$36,000 for the SR. A smaller battery keeps costs closer to conventional hybrids. 🏆 North American Utility of the Year Contenders Jack and Matt preview several vehicles expected in the NACTOY Utility category: • Rivian R2 – more accessible midsize two-row EV SUV (~330-mile range, starting ~$57–58k) • Jeep Grand Wagoneer REEV – range-extended EV with ~150 miles pure-electric range and strong power • 2027 Toyota Highlander EV – all-electric three-row model • Jeep Recon – trail-rated electric off-roader (large battery, ~222-mile range) 📩 Listener Question of the Week Gwendolyn from Spokane, Washington asks: “Why do modern vehicles seem more expensive to repair than older ones?” Jack and Matt point to increased electronics, sealed modules, complex safety and emissions systems, and sensor-heavy designs that raise parts and diagnostic costs.

Is America Ready for a Car like the 2026 Honda Prelude?
This week on America on the Road, Jack Nerad is joined by guest co-host Matt DeLorenzo for a road-test-heavy episode. They review the returning Honda Prelude hybrid coupe, the refreshed Toyota bZ electric compact SUV, the luxurious GMC Acadia Denali, and the Lexus RX hybrid. Matt also shares insights on the current state of the EV market, battery costs, and why pure electrics still face major hurdles. Our listener question focuses on EV battery degradation. ⚡ Matt DeLorenzo Road Test: Honda Prelude The Honda Prelude returns as a stylish personal sporty coupe rather than a hardcore performance car. Hybrid powertrain delivers 200 hp and 232 lb-ft with seamless direct-drive feel (no rubber-band CVT sensation) and simulated shift points. Sleek two-door design, supportive front seats, and engaging manners make it a refined two-plus-two. Attractive alternative to hot hatches for those seeking style and efficiency. 🚙 Jack Nerad Road Test: 2026 GMC Acadia Denali The midsize three-row Acadia in Denali trim offers truckish SUV styling, strong interior space, premium appointments, and excellent wireless Apple CarPlay connectivity. Power comes from a 2.5-liter turbo four producing 328 hp with an 8-speed automatic and available AWD. Pricing starts near $65,000 and can approach $70,000 fully loaded. Comfortable and well-equipped, though questions remain about long-term turbo durability in a vehicle of this size. 🚗 Matt DeLorenzo Road Test: Toyota bZ Toyota relaunches the former bZ4X simply as the bZ with major improvements. Larger 74-kWh battery delivers over 300 miles of range (up from ~235), more power (221 hp FWD / up to 338 hp AWD), softer interior materials, and a lower entry price around $34,000–$37,000. Native NACS charging, strong real-world charging speeds, and competitive cargo space. Some quirks remain with the high-mounted instrument display, but overall a much more compelling small EV SUV. 🔋 Jack Nerad Road Test: 2026 Lexus RX Hybrid<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class=" wp-image-7537 aligncenter" src="https://drivingtoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/CROP-2026-Lexus-RX-300x169.jpeg" alt="" width="399" height="225" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/drivingtoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/CROP-2026-Lexus-RX.jpeg?resize=300%2C169&ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/drivingtoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/CROP-2026-Lexus-RX.jpeg?resize=768%2C432&ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/drivingtoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/CROP-2026-Lexus-RX.jpeg?resize=678%2C381&ssl=1 678w, https://i0.wp.com/drivingtoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/CROP-2026-Lexus-RX.jpeg?w=1000&ssl=1 1000

2026 Lexus LX 700h Overtrail: Full-Size Land Cruiser Available Now
This week on America on the Road, Jack Nerad and co-host Chris Teague deliver fresh road tests of the revived 2027 Chevrolet Bolt and the rugged 2026 Lexus LX 700h Overtrail. They also examine the Senate push to ban Chinese-linked vehicles and Lexus’s expansion into luxury yachts. Are improved self-driving systems actually a potential safety menace? The New York Times thinks so, and we’ll offer our opinions. In addition, special guest Hiren Patel, Nissan Design manager, joins the show to discuss the all-new 2027 Rogue Hybrid. 🚗 Jack Nerad’s Road Test: 2026 Lexus LX 700h Overtrail The most off-road capable LX blends Land Cruiser-derived hardware with a twin-turbo 3.4-liter V6 hybrid producing 457 hp and 583 lb-ft. This big bad boy will do 0-60 in 5.6 seconds, deliver 8,000-pound towing, and offer 20 mpg combined. Locking front and rear differentials, 33-inch all-terrain tires, and Crawl Control deliver serious trail ability while the cabin remains fully luxurious with massaging seats and Mark Levinson audio. Base price is a lofty $115,735, while as-tested will set you back $119,311. The is a locked-and-loaded full-size luxury SUV for both pavement and adventure. ⚡ Chris Teague’s Road Test: 2027 Chevrolet Bolt Chevrolet has revived the Bolt as an affordable front-wheel-drive EV with a 210-hp single motor and 65-kWh LFP battery. EPA range is 262 miles, and DC fast charging now goes 10-80% in about 25 minutes. A native NACS port, 11.3-inch touchscreen with Google built-in, and available Super Cruise might delight, but no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto is disappointing. The Bolt LT starts at $28,995 including destination, and that will buy you a practical daily-use EV focused on range, fast charging, and accessible pricing. 📈 Chinese Carmakers Could Claim Over 10% of U.S. Market Research firm Mobility Global forecasts Chinese brands could reach 11 percent of the U.S. market by 2038 (about 1.7 million vehicles annually) if barriers ease—though current tariffs and connectivity rules keep them largely locked out. 🤖 Self-Driving Cars: Better Technology, Bigger Risks? A New York Times report warns of potential “automation complacency.” As the self-driving systems improve, drivers may actually rely on them. But most current tech still requires full driver attention, and comprehensive safety data on the potential issue remains limited, so why not predict doom? 🌏 Asian Brands Set to Top Half of U.S. Sales Cox Automotive predicts Asian automakers will account for more than half of U.S. sales for a second straight quarter, while the Detroit Three fall to a record-low share near 36 percent. Full-year vehicle forecast rises to 16.1 million units. 🛥️ Lexus Launches Luxury Yacht Globally Lexus expands the 68-foot LY680 yacht beyond Japan, with overseas deliveries underway and a Fort Lauderdale boat-show debut planned. Twin Volvo Penta engines, three cabins, and Lexus design values extend the brand to the water. 🎙️ Special Guest<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class=" wp-image-7518 aligncenter" src="https://drivingtoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/CROP-2027-Nissan-Rogue-Hybrid-300x169.jpg" alt="Front left 3/4 view of the 2027 Nissan Rogue Hybrid SR with mountains behind." width="399" height="225" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/drivi

They also review the 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, examine the 2027 Chrysler Pacifica, and discuss North American Car, Truck, and Utility Vehicle of the Year nominees. 🚗 Jack Nerad Road Test: 2026 Mazda CX-50 2.5 Turbo Premium Plus The CX-50 Turbo Premium Plus stands out for playful handling and a lively 2.5-liter turbo four-cylinder producing 227 hp and 310 lb-ft. It reaches 60 mph in 6.4 seconds and delivers 25 mpg combined with i-Activ AWD. Its near-luxury cabin boasts supple leather, Bose audio, a 10.25-inch display, and strong standard safety features.

A stylish, engaging compact crossover that prioritizes driving enjoyment. 🚗 Chris Teague Road Test: 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV The updated Outlander PHEV gains a larger 22.7-kWh battery and stronger combined output of 297 horsepower from its 2.4-liter four-cylinder and dual electric motors. EPA-estimated all-electric range reaches about 45 miles, with 27 mpg combined once the battery is depleted. Standard twin-motor Super-All Wheel Control, seating for seven (compact third row), and available Yamaha audio highlight the package. Pricing starts near $43,245–$44,990. A capable, well-equipped plug-in hybrid crossover that prioritizes efficiency and everyday versatility. 🚗 Jack Nerad Road Test: 2026 Toyota Sequoia Capstone Toyota’s top full-size three-row hybrid combines a 3.4-liter twin-turbo V6 with an electric motor for 437 hp and 583 lb-ft. 0-60 in 5.6 seconds, 20 mpg combined, and towing up to 8,980 pounds.

Cargo area is an impressive 11.5–86.9 cubic feet, depending on seating configuration. Pricing starts around $85,235. 🚗 Chris Teague Road Test: 2027 Chrysler Pacifica <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class=" wp-image-7504 aligncenter" src="https://drivingtoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/CROP-2027-Chrysler-Pacifica-300x169.jpg" alt="" width="401" height="226" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/drivingtoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/CROP-2027-Chrysler-Pacifica.jpg?resize=300%2C169&ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/drivingtoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/CROP-2027-Chrysler-Pacifica.jpg?resize=768%2C433&ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/drivingt

2026 Toyota Corolla FX: Is Limited Edition Fun Too Limited?
This week on America on the Road, Jack Nerad and co-host Chris Teague deliver fresh road tests of the 2026 Genesis GV80 and the limited-edition 2026 Toyota Corolla FX. They also examine GM’s push into domestic sodium-ion batteries, the latest climb in used-vehicle prices, and President Trump’s comments on possible Chinese auto plants in the United States. The pair detail the hybrid-only 2027 Lexus NX and Bristol Cars’ return with the formerly moribund Fighter supercar. Special guest Alisha Bumgarner, Goodyear tire expert, joins the show. ⚡ Jack Nerad Road Test: 2026 Toyota Corolla FX The limited-edition Corolla FX hatchback mixes retro styling cues with modern efficiency. Based on the SE, it features 18-inch gloss-white wheels, sport mesh grille, and unique badges. The 2.0-liter four-cylinder (169 hp) and CVT deliver 8.2-second 0-60 times and 33 mpg combined. Supportive sport seats, heated fronts, and solid materials define the cabin. Cargo space is modest but practical. With a base price $26,780; as-tested $29,132, it delivers distinctive, efficient manners with head-turning looks at an accessible price. But does it deliver enough fun? 🚗 Chris Teague Road Test: 2026 Genesis GV80 The Genesis GV80 is a stylish luxury midsize SUV that prioritizes design, a lavish interior, and value. Its distinctive exterior, quilted leather, large 27-inch display, and strong standard tech and safety features are all praiseworthy. For 2026 it adds a more affordable rear-drive 2.5T (300 hp) version, expanded third-row availability, and Terrain mode. The 3.5-liter twin-turbo V-6 that Chris tested makes 375 hp and it features a comfortable ride and spacious cabin. Pricing ranges from $59,195 to $91,545. 🔋 GM Targets 2029 for U.S. Sodium-Ion Battery Production General Motors is developing sodium-ion cells for commercial production around 2029, initially for stationary energy storage. The effort emphasizes domestic materials such as U.S. soda ash and aims to reduce reliance on Chinese supply chains. Partnership with Peak Energy and new Michigan lab facilities support the plan. 📈 Used-Vehicle Prices Hit Highest Average Since 2022 Average used-vehicle listing prices reached $27,239 in August, the highest monthly figure in more than three years according to Cox Automotive. Budget models under $15,000 face the tightest supply, with inventory down nearly 26 percent year over year. 🇺🇸 Trump Open to Chinese Auto Plants in U.S.—With Conditions President Trump said he might support Chinese car companies building plants in the United States if they hire American workers. Existing Commerce Department rules still bar most Chinese-connected vehicles from the U.S. market starting with model year 2027, and industry groups continue pushing for permanent bans. ⚡ 2027 Lexus NX Goes Fully Hybrid The updated NX becomes a hybrid- and plug-in-hybri

2026 Chevrolet Trax: An Affordable SUV … Really
This week on America on the Road, Jack Nerad and co-host Chris Teague deliver fresh road tests of the 2026 Land Rover Defender 130 V8 and the affordable 2026 Chevrolet Trax. They also examine Tesla’s large-scale China door-release campaign and its implications for U.S. owners, Volvo’s expanded connected safety alerts, Kia’s 2027 Niro and Sportage pricing, Mitsubishi’s Momentum 2030 growth plan, and Chevrolet’s refreshed High Country trim on the Traverse. 🚗 Jack Nerad’s Road Test: 2026 Chevrolet Trax The Chevy Trax is a sharp-looking, roomy subcompact SUV that punches above its price. The 1.2-liter turbo three-cylinder offers 137 hp and its six-speed automatic helps deliver more than adequate daily performance. A quiet cabin, car-like ride, generous rear legroom, and 25.6 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats make the little SUV worthy of a look. The LT trim pricing starts around $23,200, and the as-tested price of the vehicle Jack reviews was $27,975. In all, the Trax delivers strong value with modern tech and solid safety features at one of the lowest prices in the segment. 🚗 Chris Teague’s Road Test: 2026 Land Rover Defender 130 V8 The longest Land Rover Defender seats up to eight across three rows while keeping the iconic boxy look and serious off-road hardware. The P400 mild-hybrid 3.0-liter inline-six delivers 395 hp and 406 lb-ft; the supercharged 5.0-liter V8 P500 test vehicle makes 493 hp and 450 lb-ft. Permanent AWD, two-speed transfer case, and standard air suspension that provides up to 11.5 inches of ground clearance are among the Defender 130’s top features. Pricing starts in the low-to-mid $70,000s, but our test vehicle was well into six figures. 📊 Tesla China Recalls Raise U.S. Safety Questions Chinese regulators have ordered Tesla to fix emergency door releases on nearly 3 million vehicles and update driver-attention systems on more than 2.7 million Model 3 and Y cars. The actions put NHTSA on notice. U.S. owners should stay current on software, learn mechanical release locations, and monitor the safety agency for any parallel action. 📡 Volvo Expands Connected Safety Network Volvo is adding large animal, vulnerable road user, roadwork, and accident ahead alerts to its connected safety system, turning more than a million vehicles into a real-time hazard network that can share data across brands. Spatial Audio for Apple CarPlay also arrives via over-the-air update on EX90 models with Bowers & Wilkins audio. 💰 Kia Sets 2027 Niro and Sportage Pricing The 2027 Niro starts at $29,890 for the LX and is all-hybrid. The gas Sportage X-Line now includes a panoramic sunroof and smart power liftgate as standard. Both models receive styling, tech, and refinement updates. 🚙 Mitsubishi Details Momentum 2030 Growth Plan Mitsubishi is expanding its U.S. lineup to six vehicles by 2027, adding a new Eclipse Sportback EV, a rugged Outlander variant, and may have plans to re-enter the pickup segment via collaboration with Nissan. The strategy focuses on electrification, product renewal, and dealer growth. ✨ Chevrolet Refreshes High Country for 2027 Traverse The top High Country trim gains a bolder exterior with new badging, Tritan Satin accents, and 22-inch wheels, plus richer interior materials and an interior c
