Launching, Road Tripping and Parking

We had a bit of a break as both Nicole and Sam were travelling but we're back with a full garage. Roberto drove the standard and RS versions of the Audi e-Tron GT. Nicole had a trio from the Hyundai Motor Group starting with the refreshed 2021 Santa Fe and then the Genesis GV80 and G70. Sam had a trio of very different utility vehicles starting with the 2022 Acura MDX A-Spec and the Jeep Wrangler 4XE plug-in hybrid and finished with taking a road trip in the Ford Mustang Mach-E.

In the news we discuss some of the challenges of charging an EV on a road trip, the cancellation of the New York Auto Show, President Biden's executive order on electric vehicles and fuel economy and what may have transpired between Elon Musk and Tim Cook. Sam interviewed Kevin Mull from Bosch, Craig Stephens from Ford and Heather Willberger, CIO of Bedrock about the new Detroit Smart Parking Lab. As usual we wrap up with listener questions
