This update only underscores how good the Genesis GV70 is; It really doesn’t seem to need an update. And to be honest, it is something of a modest refresh. Fun fact: The GV70 was rolled out for the 2022 model year, and tweaked immediately for 2023. For 2026, that small Genesis crossover enjoys a host of exterior styling updates—all pretty minor—and a new digital display inside.

If Jeep is serious about electrification, then it needs to hit showrooms with an EV that lands exactly where the brand is centered: off road.

The hosts welcome Tiago Castro, Vice President of Infiniti of the Americas, to the podcast. Tiago walks Tom and Jill through the luxury carmaker's plans for the near- and midterm, focusing on new-product opportunities.
