Jill and Tom opened the show discussing the L.A. Auto Show, which is currently open to the public. Jill, who attended the event, shared what she learned on the show floor.Â
The hosts went to discuss the interiors of select Stellantis vehicles. Tom decided—contrary to a suggestion of his from last week’s show—that Stellantis deserved to be considered among the carmakers producing the best-finished cabins.Â
In the second segment, Jill and Tom welcome Hyundai Product Planning Manager Andre Ravinowich to the show. Andre walked the hosts through the brand’s L.A. Auto Show reveals, including the dramatically styled 2025 Ioniq 9 3-row crossover.Â
In the third segment, Jill is subjected to Tom’s “Ford or Mercury?” quiz, and the hosts review the 2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid.Â
