Toyota has taken a bold approach with the all-new Camry by ditching the much-loved V-6 powertrain option, while only keeping the four-cylinder hybrid option. Toyota motivates this decision by revealing that most of its customers prefer their Camry models with a downsized engine by a near 94-percent margin. Toyota's hybrid systems are some of the most appreciated and admired pieces of drivetrain technology thanks to the brand's nearly 27-year experience in the field that dates back to the original Camry.

PARK CITY, Utah – It’s not often that I go to a press event to drive four cars, yet here I am, smack dab in the mountains of Utah with scheduled time in the 2024 Audi Q8 and SQ8 as well as the 2025 Audi Q7 and SQ7. The good news is that there are a lot of similarities to these midsize luxury SUVs. The bad news is that despite being refreshed for each of their model years, both (all?) are showing their age.

At its best, marketing clearly and concisely helps you understand why you should want to buy a product. Sometimes, though, marketing tries to convince you a product is something it’s not, but something you might find desirable, nonetheless. Case in point: the 2025 Genesis GV80 Coupe. It’s being presented as a sporty, driver-focused model despite being neither of those things. It is, though, a very nice luxury SUV.

The only manual V8 RWD sedan left in America is a compelling proposition all on its own; the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing is a reminder of what AMG used to be, and after being refreshed for 2025 with new looks and a 33-inch touchscreen, it's on par with German automakers in the interior tech department. The 2025 CT5-V Blackwing didn't get any performance enhancements when it was revealed at the beginning of this year, and we didn't think it needed any, but now Cadillac has addressed the issue with a new Precision Package that promises enhanced handling for all driving conditions.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

The refreshed 2025 Ford Explorer debuted back in early February bearing a number of changes including slight exterior styling tweaks, along with a host of interior revisions and the addition of the brand new Ford Digital Experience software. However, along with a pared-down trim level lineup that saw the deletion of the King Ranch trim, the 2025 Ford Explorer was also curiously missing any sort of hybrid powertrain option. Now, we know why that’s the case.

Kia has a new K8 sedan on sale — for the Korean market, at least. It didn’t exactly set American buyers’ hearts racing when it was on sale here, but the Kia Cadenza was a solid midsize sedan that offered premium features at a budget-friendly price tag. The brand’s midsize sedan didn’t kick the bucket entirely when the Korean automaker withdrew it from the U.S. market in 2020, but it’s instead lived on as the K8. Now, the Korean market Kia K8 gets a bold mid-cycle update, with dramatic styling and a host of interior tweaks to boot.
