The 2027 Lexus NX is far more than a typical model-year update. Lexus has changed almost everything — the powertrains, transmission, exterior design, interior, steering, suspension, brakes, technology and more. For 2027, the Lexus NX is 100% electrified, with two powertrain choices: the NX 350h hybrid and NX 450h+ plug-in hybrid. The new NX is available in Premium, Premium Plus, F Sport and Luxury trims, with front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive availability depending on the powertrain and trim. Inside, the 2027 Lexus NX gets a dramatically redesigned cabin featuring a huge 14-inch Lexus Interface touchscreen, a smaller steering wheel, new compact gear selector, ambient lighting, wireless charging, heated and ventilated seats, and — because apparently luxury cars now need to smell luxurious — three available cabin fragrances. There's also a surprisingly useful new feature: a built-in drive recorder/dash cam that can continuously record what's happening around the vehicle. Outside, the NX gets a redesigned spindle grille, integrated headlights, new L-shaped lighting signatures, a horizontal rear light bar and Lexus lettering across the back. The NX 450h+ plug-in hybrid is expected to offer around 40 miles of electric range, along with DC fast charging. Lexus has also worked on the transition between EV and hybrid driving to make the powertrain smoother and quieter. So, is the 2027 Lexus NX a major step forward, or has Lexus made an already good SUV unnecessarily complicated? Let us know what you think in the comments.

2027 Lexus NX First Look: Lexus Changed EVERYTHING!

October 6th

The 2027 Audi S6 Sportback e-tron has 543 horsepower, dual electric motors, quattro all-wheel drive and a claimed 0–60 mph time of just 3.4 seconds. But raw acceleration isn't the interesting part. The big question is: **is the new Audi S6 e-tron actually fun to drive?** In this full review, we put the 2027 Audi S6 Sportback e-tron through its paces and take a close look at its performance, handling, ride quality, range, interior, technology and practicality. With a rear-biased power delivery, adaptive air suspension, revised steering, larger brakes, six-piston front calipers and Michelin Pilot Sport EV tires, Audi has clearly tried to make the S6 more than just another incredibly fast electric car. We test the S6 in Comfort and Dynamic modes, including a launch, and find out how well it handles corners, rough roads and everyday driving. The S6 e-tron also offers an estimated range of up to 324 miles with 20-inch wheels, 270-kW DC fast charging, a 94-kWh battery and Sportback practicality with up to 39 cubic feet of cargo space. Inside, there's Audi's latest digital cockpit with an 11.9-inch driver display, 14.5-inch central touchscreen, optional 10.9-inch passenger display, sport seats, Dinamica faux suede, carbon-fiber trim and Audi's clever switchable glass roof. Our tester is a Prestige model with the Audi Exclusive interior and Black Optic package, bringing the total price to $94,450. But there are some frustrations, including Audi's touchscreen-heavy interior, piano-black trim, limited rear visibility, and the compromises created by the Sportback roofline. So, has Audi finally built an electric car that feels like a proper Audi sports sedan rather than an EV trying to imitate one? Watch the full review to find out. **2027 Audi S6 e-tron Specs:** • 543 hp from dual electric motors • 0–60 mph in around 3.4 seconds • 94-kWh battery • Up to 324 miles of range • Up to 270 kW DC fast charging • Rear-biased quattro all-wheel drive • Adaptive air suspension • Six-piston front brakes • Michelin Pilot Sport EV tires • Up to 39 cu. ft. of cargo space • Base price: $79,600 • Tested price: $94,450 If you enjoy honest, independent car reviews, **like, subscribe, and turn on notifications** for more new car reviews, road tests, and automotive videos from @TheDrivewire #AudiS6 #AudiS6etron #S6etron #Audi #AudiSportback #ElectricCar #EV #ElectricCars #CarReview #AudiReview #EVReview #SportsSedan #LuxuryCars #Quattro #2027Audi 15:01

2027 Audi S6 e-tron -Is this the best EV sports sedan?

October 2nd

The 2027 Audi Q6 e-tron has a surprisingly useful frunk — but Audi has made one slightly odd decision. There’s a built-in divider in the frunk that helps keep your stuff organized. Great idea… except you can’t remove it. So while the Q6 e-tron gives you extra storage under the hood, you’re also stuck with Audi’s idea of how that space should be used. And if you’ve got something larger that would fit perfectly without the divider… well, tough. In this quick look, I show you the 2027 Audi Q6 e-tron frunk, how much space it offers, what the divider does, and why the fact that it’s fixed in place is a little frustrating. Is this clever German engineering… or Audi overthinking something that didn't need overthinking? #AudiQ6eTron #Audi #Q6eTron #ElectricSUV #EV #ElectricCars #Frunk #AudiQ6 #RoadTestReviews #CarReview #EVReview 0:36

The 2027 Audi Q6 e-tron has the most ANNOYING frunk!

September 26th

The 2027 Audi Q6 e-tron might be one of the most convincing luxury electric SUVs yet. It doesn't look like a spaceship, a jelly bean, or an electric toaster. It just looks like an Audi — and that's exactly the point. In this full 2027 Audi Q6 e-tron review, I take a detailed look at the updated Q6 e-tron quattro, including its 456 horsepower, 631 lb-ft of torque, 0–60 mph in 4.4 seconds, 301–325 miles of range, 94.4-kWh battery, and 270-kW fast charging. I'll also look at the interior, cargo space, technology, infotainment, comfort, handling, and what it's actually like to drive this roughly 5,000-pound electric SUV. The 2027 model brings several updates, including standard all-wheel drive, revised steering-wheel controls with physical scroll wheels, updated technology and improved charging capability. This particular Q6 e-tron also has the Prestige Package, Warm Weather Package and 20-inch wheels, bringing the total price to $77,290. So, is the 2027 Audi Q6 e-tron the electric SUV for people who don't particularly want to drive an electric SUV? Let's find out. 2027 Audi Q6 e-tron Specs: • 456 hp • 631 lb-ft of torque • 0–60 mph: 4.4 seconds • 94.4-kWh battery • EPA range: 301–325 miles • DC fast charging: up to 270 kW • 10–80% charging: approximately 30 minutes • Cargo space: approximately 30 cu. ft. / 60 cu. ft. seats folded • Frunk: 2.3 cu. ft. • Base price: $64,500 • Tested price: $77,290 If you're shopping for a luxury electric SUV, comparing the Audi Q6 e-tron with the BMW iX, Mercedes EQE SUV, Porsche Macan Electric, Tesla Model Y or Cadillac Lyriq, this review should give you a good idea of what the Audi is actually like to live with and drive.

2027 Audi Q6 e-tron Review: Has Audi Finally Nailed an EV?

September 24th

The 2026 Volkswagen Jetta SEL is a comfortable , efficient and surprisingly affordable German sedan — but it has a couple of head-scratching omissions. No rear air vents. And the passenger seat doesn’t get height adjustment. Two small things that make you wonder what Volkswagen was thinking. 😳 Would either of these bother you? #2026VWJetta #VWJetta #VolkswagenJetta #JettaSEL #CarShorts #CarReview #Volkswagen #Sedan #NewCars #TheDrivewire 1:00

2 BIG Problems With the 2026 VW Jetta SEL 😳

September 18th

The SUV invasion continues, but the 2026 Volkswagen Jetta is still here — stubbornly refusing to die. In this review, I take the range-topping 2026 Volkswagen Jetta SE for a drive to find out whether there’s still a reason to buy a compact sedan in a world obsessed with SUVs. The 2026 Jetta keeps its 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 158 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque, paired exclusively with an automatic transmission. Sadly, the six-speed manual is gone. On the plus side, VW claims up to 40 mpg on the highway. I also look at the Jetta’s interior, technology, comfort, trunk space, handling and driving dynamics — including why this supposedly sensible little sedan is surprisingly entertaining on a twisty road. But it isn't perfect. The top-of-the-line SE still doesn't have a passenger-seat height adjustment, and somehow VW has forgotten that rear passengers might occasionally enjoy having air-conditioning vents. So is the 2026 Volkswagen Jetta a forgotten bargain, or is the compact sedan simply fighting a losing battle against SUVs? In this review: • 2026 Volkswagen Jetta SE • 1.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder • 158 horsepower / 184 lb-ft • Up to 40 mpg highway • 14.1 cubic feet of trunk space • Jetta SE interior and technology • Driving impressions and handling • Jetta vs Honda Civic • What it's like driving a compact sedan in the SUV era • The things VW got right — and the things it really should have fixed If you enjoy honest, occasionally sarcastic car reviews, subscribe to @TheDrivewire for more new car reviews, road tests, and automotive nonsense. #VolkswagenJetta #Jetta #2026Jetta #Volkswagen #CarReview #JettaReview #Sedan #CompactSedan #NewCars #CarReviews #HondaCivic #VolkswagenReview #TheDrivewire #RoadTestReviews 11:27
