In the latest episode of Doug DeMuro's channel, Cars and Bids, the team announced the exciting relaunch with fresh content, including an office tour and a cyber truck parking challenge. The enthusiasm is palpable as they promise fun and quirky videos that harken back to the good old days. BMW finally confirmed the arrival of the M5 Touring in the US, a move that left enthusiasts both thrilled and relieved after the missed opportunity with the M3 Touring. The discussion then veers towards the potential release of an electrified i5 model, sparking debates on the future of hybrid vehicles.
Porsche's latest creation, the Taycan Turbo GT Viseac Edition, raises eyebrows with its jaw-dropping 1,019 horsepower and the peculiar absence of back seats despite having back doors. The team humorously questions the car's value retention and the likelihood of buyers splurging on such a unique vehicle. Shifting gears, the conversation delves into the amusing naming scheme of the Polestar cars, leading to speculations about the upcoming Polestar 7 and the brand's unconventional approach to nomenclature.
Toyota's teaser of the new 4Runner piques interest with promises of a redesigned interior and a larger screen, a departure from the outdated features of its predecessors. Meanwhile, Fisker finds itself in hot water as a staggering $9 million in refund requests pour in from 40,000 depositors for the Ocean SUV, highlighting the challenges faced by the electric car manufacturer. The episode wraps up with a lively debate on automakers' naming strategies, with a mix of praise for Audi's simplicity and criticism for BMW's convoluted approach.
