On average, fuel prices are up almost a dollar per gallon, or 25 percent, according to AAA. For a nation as addicted to the automotive as we are, that's bad news. Except, of course, for electric vehicles.

"The ID. Buzz continues to serve as an important halo product for the Volkswagen brand, and safeguarding its market presence remains a top priority."

DoorDash's investment in Also aims to develop and accelerate the deployment of autonomous delivery at scale, focusing on areas not yet fully solved for, including intersections of roadways and bike lanes.

Honda has slashed the price of the 2026 Prologue by $7,500 across the board, essentially replacing the lost tax incentive and making the crossover a much better deal among its peers.

The Skoda Peaq can seat up to seven people, with a maximum trunk volume of 35.7 cu-ft in its five-seater configuration and 10.6 cu-ft behind the third row in the seven-seater variant.

Plug-in hybrids can offer 20-60 miles of electric-only driving for daily use, plus a gas engine for longer trips or when they can't recharge.
