In the latest episode of Doug DeMuro's show, the team dives into the automotive world's latest buzz. They kick things off with the demise of the Subaru Legacy, a car that seems to have slipped under the radar for many. With manufacturers like Ford and Chevy also bidding farewell to models like the Fusion and Malibu, it's clear that the era of midsize sedans is waning. The focus is now on SUVs, with Subaru following suit and shifting their attention to this popular segment.

Moving on to more exciting news, the Tesla Model 3 Performance takes center stage with its impressive specs and positive early reviews. Boasting 510 horsepower and a 0-60 time of 2.9 seconds, this electric sedan is turning heads. The team discusses how Tesla has upped its game with improved suspension tuning, making the Model 3 Performance not just fast but also sportier than its predecessor.

Next up is the Mercedes G580 with EQ technology, a beast of an SUV designed for off-road adventures. With a two-speed transmission and 580 horsepower, this rugged vehicle promises a thrilling ride. The team speculates on its pricing and the possibility of a high-performance AMG variant in the future. Despite some design critiques, the G580's off-road capabilities and robust build make it a compelling option in the luxury SUV market.

Shifting gears, Lamborghini enters the fray with the announcement of a new plug-in hybrid Urus. With a whopping 790 horsepower and 30 miles of electric range, this powerhouse SUV is set to make waves. The team ponders the demand for plug-in hybrids in the high-end market and reflects on Lamborghini's foray into electrification. Lastly, Ferrari's new sponsorship deal with HP in Formula 1 sparks a lively discussion, with speculation about the team's future and past sponsorships. The conversation wraps up with a humorous take on brand loyalty, highlighting Doug's unwavering support for HP and Shell products.
