Welcome to episode 8 of The AutoGuide Show brought to you by eBay Motors. This week we drive an all-new crossover as well as two convertibles in the middle of winter. Mike and Kyle each pick their five choices for the best new car under $30,000. Dodge and Infiniti both drop teasers on new vehicles coming soon.

Have you ever gone to a restaurant, enjoyed an incredible meal, and ended up shocked at the bill—because it’s so low? Buick evidently has.

“Hydrogen is for people who can’t build engines,” or something like that. It's tough to tell if Enzo might be in any way displeased with an inline-six, twin-turbo, and supercharged hydrogen engine. On the surface, the patent filings discovered by AutoGuide certainly sound like sacrilege coming from a brand that prides itself on its naturally aspirated V12. Yet the filings don’t lie, and Ferrari SPA has filed patents for exactly that.

We’ve driven trucks that cost close to $100,000, but even if yours is a more reasonable workhorse, it still makes sense to protect it with a set of the best truck seat covers. Truck seat covers aren’t what they used to be, though. Today, you can order modern truck seats that rival luxury cars of a few years ago. Made with a perfect fit, perforations so your backside can breathe, and even seat heaters. Don’t get us wrong, you can still get the old saddle blanket cover to use as a cover, which is a cool option in the right truck. But seat covers have changed and improved immensely since those days.

As the Formula 1 season prepares to launch with the much-anticipated Bahrain Grand Prix this weekend, the motorsport world is abuzz with excitement and speculation. Interest has surged, as evidenced by a 200% increase in searches for the "2024 F1 schedule" over the last three months, signalling a keen anticipation for the high-octane drama and competition that Formula 1 uniquely delivers. This year, the season promises an exhilarating mix of strategic duels, technical prowess, and sheer speed, played out across some of the most legendary circuits in motorsport history.

For a good engineer, twin motor is better than mechanical. The mechanical AWD system automatically distributes torque. With electric, the engineers have to work more to make the system work together.

If you’ve ever walked to your car or truck in the morning and saw one of your tires low, you know how valuable a quality tire inflator can be.

Right now you can save 28% on a Fanttik X9 Ultra Portable Tire Inflator – that’s a discount of $70 by checking the COUPON plus using the code X9ULTRA3IN1.

For 2024, Volkswagen has introduced a host of updates to the ID.4 electric crossover. Three trims will be available. A base model, followed by S and S Plus models, the latter of which tops out the range. Each trim is available with the choice between a 62 kWh battery and an 82kWh one, as well as rear or all-wheel drive. Arguably the biggest change comes to models equipped with the optional 82kWh battery pack.

The home EV charger market has changed significantly since I took delivery of my first EV (Tesla Model 3) in 2018. Back then, buying a Tesla made it simple and straightforward when it came time to choosing a home EV charger because of its (at the time) proprietary plug. I did, however, shop around for J1772 chargers in the chance that in the future I decided I no longer wanted a Tesla. Back then, there weren't too many options to choose from, which is why I ended up getting a Tesla Wall Connector since I really didn't want to use an adapter.

Existing Ford EV owners have until June 30 to claim their adapters.

The Mazda MX-5 Miata has been reviewed countless times by us, in countless ways. There have been summer tests, track tests, winter tests, and comparison tests. As a perennial favorite among the staff here, we never pass up an opportunity to drive it.
