Legendary Mercedes Designer Passes, Buick Enclave Impresses, Buyers Pick Their Favorite Car Features

 

(Show Notes)

Jill and Tom opened the show quickly covering a number of topics, including the death of legendary Mercedes-Benz designer Bruno Sacco, the folding of General Motors’ electric commercial-van unit into Chevrolet, and Tom’s weekend long-trip drive in the electric Subaru Solterra small crossover.

 

Still in the first segment, Jill shared her take on the redesigned-for-2025 Buick Enclave large, 3-row crossover. The near-luxury crossover impresses for its quietness and general refinement, but not everything is perfect. Listen in for complete details.

 

In the second segment the hosts are joined by Robby DeGraff of AutoPacific. Robby shared details of the research firm’s 2024 Future Attribute Demand Study (FADS). This year’s list of the ten most-wanted car features is full of surprises. Listen in to hear the complete list.

 

In the last segment Jill is subjected to Tom’s “Top Trim Level!” quiz, and Jill talks a little about the difficulties of driving through sand—this in advance of her participation in the Rebelle Rally.
