Small SUVs, performance SUVs, luxury SUVs, specialty SUVs - everybody is making SUVs these days, they're all the craze. After Alan reminisce about his trip to Washington D.C. with Automotive Journalist, BJ Killeen, she reviews the Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio that she drove at Motorpress Guild Drive Days. Then we learn about the Hyundai Palisade and Genesis G80 and their amazing features and low-cost high-value pricing. Next up, Co-Founder of Cartender, and Freelance Automotive Journalist for CarGurus, Boston Globe, and U.S. News and World Report, George Kennedy III, reviews the Jaguar F-Pace SVR and it's amazing engine sound, and the 2019 Audi Q3 with updated MMI touch screen controls. Changing lanes, Kelley Blue Book, Autotrader, and Dealer.com Executive Publisher, Karl Brauer, discusses the Lamborghini Urus and how its the number 1 selling Lamborghini on the market right now and what this means for SUVs. Then we chat about the Monterey Car Week auction prices dip, the rise of mid engine cars and the upcoming unveiling of the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible, and August's bounce back in auto sales. Closing out the show, Executive Editor for Autotrader, Brian Moody, gives us a list of Autotrader's top 12 picks for best new electric cars of 2019.
