Auto Buyers Guide | Alex on Autos
США
Добавлен 13 май 2011
Join Alex, Nick and Travis for in-depth looks at the latest cars, trucks, SUVs, and EVs on the market. In every video we cover all the things you should know if you're shopping for a new vehicle. From what it looks like to what you get on each trim, how much they will cost you and how they compare to the competition. Unlike other channels we don't waste time on antics, track day diaries, or sweeping vistas with loud music. Instead, we cover the nitty-gritty detail the other channels leave out!
Back in 2006, Alex was car shopping and decided he didn't like any of the online resources he found. Nobody was showing in detail what the interior looked like, nobody was giving direct comparisons to the segment best sellers, so he decided to do something about it and start Alex On Autos. In 2023 to reflect the other folks here that make our weekly production happen, Alex On Autos became Auto Buyers Guide.

The 2025 Infiniti QX80 Is Large, In Charge, And... Firmly Sprung? | 2025 QX80 Review
Просмотров 17 тыс.2 часа назад
The only odd thing about the new QX80 is the suspension tuning. It's not the comfy highway cruise you might have been expecting. No, it's not BMW X5M levels of firmness, but neither does it float on a cloud like many of us had expected. Instead Nissan gave the QX80 a ride that's firmer than Escalade or Wagoneer but more compliant than some of the German competition. Is that the right move? Let ...
The 2024 Mercedes AMG GLA Isn't As Hot As It Used To Be, But It's Still Spicy!
Просмотров 8 тыс.4 часа назад
Sadly for 2024 the GLA 45 is toast in America. It turns out, nobody was buying the best hot hatch in America. The good news is that the same sauce in a milder format is available in the 2024 CLA 35! Woohoo! If you're looking at a VW Golf R, or a Civic Type R and you want something snazzier... Check out this GLA...

The 2024-2025 Escape Plug In Hybrid Is The Value-Priced Pluggable For The Rest Of Us
Просмотров 23 тыс.12 часов назад
Ford's 2024 and 2025 Escape plug in hybrid has some serious price advantages over the RAV4 Prime, Tucson PHEV, Sportage PHEV, or the Outlander PHEV: discounts and tax credits. Right now it seem that not only can you get the $3,750 tax credit at the point of sale, but you can also find up to $3,000 of "cash on the hood" making the Escape one of the least expensive ways to plug into a compact SUV...
Ineos Grenadier Quartermaster Quick Look - The Boxiest Truck In America!

Tommy Mica and I filmed this before Ineos decided that we shouldn't publish any "longer" videos before today. Shucks. Don't they know that 12 minutes is short for us? Anyway, since we had fun filming it, I thought you should all see it.

The 2025 Ineos Grenadier Quartermaster Is The Coolest Truck In America!
Просмотров 16 тыс.19 часов назад
Today we’re in Palm Springs driving the newest truck in America! It’s called the Quartermaster, and it’s coming from an unexpected place: Hambach, France. Yep, that’s where the newest Ineos will be built, right alongside the boxy Grenadier SUV. As you’d expect, Ineos basically took a Grenadier, hacked off the cargo area, and stretched the frame 21.5 inches to accommodate the 61.5 inch long bed....
2024 GMC Acadia First Drive | Refreshed and ReSized

GMC had us out to South Carolina to get behind the wheel for the first drive of their refreshed Acadia. GMC has redesigned their Midsize to portray a more mature and elegant look on the interior as well as the exterior. They have also increased the size dramatically in the length, width and height which now leads to making the Acadia class leader in cargo space with 97.5 cu ft of total capacity...
2025 Infiniti QX80 | Infiniti's Biggest and Most Expensive Flagship Ever
Просмотров 39 тыс.День назад
Infiniti finally gave the QX80 a complete ground-up redesign with a new frame, new engine, new body and all new interior. All the "all-new" comes at a price of course, and that's an all-new pricing strategy that can get the QX80 over $112,000 if you get a fully-loaded trim like I was able to sample in Napa.

The 3 isn't just Polestar’s latest EV, it's arguably the most important product in the brand’s short history. The 3 is Polestar's first SUV, their new flagship, the most expensive model they will sell for a while, it has the longest range, fastest charging, and it's the first Polestar that was designed from the start to be a Polestar.* It's also the model designed to take on Porsche.

Yep, dimensionally this is the biggest EV I've driven all year! All kidding aside, the e-Sprinter was a cool thing to sample, and it could make sense for fleets that want to go green, spend a bit less time with their employees at the pump, or as the basis for a short range RV for #vanlife folks that mainly go from RV park to RV park.

This Q7 is a 2024, but for 2025 the only change is a new grille and some headlight and tail light tweaks. The interior? That's exactly the same. That's not a bad thing however, depending on what you're looking for in your next luxury 3-row.

Sports cars that are fun *and* affordable are getting harder and harder to find, especially 2-door coupes designed to be lightweight, nimble, and tail happy.

The New Polestar 3 Is Polestar's First Real Flagship
This new GLI looks MUCH better. 🔥
Good publicity for the Honda transmission system, but despite this, Toyota consume less fuel and their transmission system is therefore more efficient.
Why are all the manufacturers supersizing their infotainment screens? Do people actually want that? Not me. I'll be sticking with my 2019 Jetta. Fairly zippy, buttons and knobs and 40 MPG.
Salut my friend super car super video subscribe subscribe ...
Who started this monster grill craze?
Nicer simple design vs the new accord.
The change from physical climate control to the stupid capacitive touch is almost a dealbreaker. Didn’t Volkswagen state they’d be adding in more physical buttons not removing them? Huge misstep in usability
Once again, a low frills Audi.
Love it, especially in that blue.
Nothing from VW appeals to me anymore and I was a number one fan back in their hay day.
The efficiency numbers are conspicuously missing. Does it still take 54 kWh to travel 100 miles? (Edmund’s test results)
As refreshs go, that is a substantial one. And all changes I see make sense and are actual improvements. The styling especially is way better. Just like the Atlas, one those really interesting VW cars with decent value for money that we do not get in Germany. VW = Volkswagen = People's car... So value for should in theory the essence of the brand. Nice to see that at least in NA it actually is 😀 In Europe they have Skoda and Seat for that, while VW itself is kind of placed above all the Asian brands, as well as PSA, Fiat and Ford in terms of price, but still slightly below Audi / BWM / Mercedes. So kind of "half premium"? From what I hear, they're better made than the US only models with less cheap plastic on the interior etc... But damn, I still like the Atlas over the Touareg. Especially given hugely expensive the latter is. And the Jetta seems like a perfect car for a Uni student, young people in general or the perfect 2nd car for a family.
Is there going to be a hatchback?
I'm really suprised they have kept the Jetta in the US. It sales rather poorly compared to the Corolla and Civic. Plus 150ish hp? Lame.
Like the new look, the front reminds me of the Arteon. Thanks for the video!!
They could of at least gave it a 10.25 in screen
Nice refresh
The Jetta doesn't get enough love. It's a great deal.I'd be very happy if they made a Jetta wagon for NA.
I heard it was made in China
Looks a heck of a lot like the previous iteration. Improvement all together.
Good going Jetta GLI
It’s a great look! Gorgeous car with amazing handling and ride!
Very helpful information! Didn’t see the Volkswagen Atlas👀?!
Good info and testing seats. Thank you
I don’t know about the 1.5 L turbo, in the 1.4 L turbo the manual got better economy on the highway hands-down every time. I had a 2019 1.4 turbo Jetta with a six speed manual and I had a friend who had eight speed automatic.he got about 3 miles in the city Uber full-time, but I got about 5 miles the gallon better on the highway.
It's true that over 65km/h the scape force the gas engine to lock-in?? Thank you
Yes; VW went in the right direction.
The Forrester doesn't even come close to what I look for in a CUV. Woefully underpowered and a CVT.
I'm glad the AMG GLA exists, but at 60k+ that interior looks terribly cheap.
When are you doing the carnival ?
More fake HVAC buttons. Look like VW still hasn't learned their lesson
I don't like all that shiny black plastic in the new model
Why would you care about people’s view from the rear seats.
When it comes to VW, the longer they run a model without major changes, the more reliable it gets, which is a VERY good thing. People who bought a late year 2.5 will attest to that. The Jetta seems to be a solid option in the class and the GLI is a car too many people sleep on.
Should have bumped the engine from the gti into the gli big miss by Volkswagen.
That looks really nice. They’re going back to the Gen 6 roots. Also thank god VW for using the Aisin transmission, they want this car to be reliable.
So, what are the tow ratings?
Won't sell well at those high prices, especially at 100K or more.
Why is this car less efficient at high speeds? Narrower "gear ratio" with the CVT?
Hey look, an SUV that won't obliterate a pedestrian. Might have to get one of these used a few years from now to replace our 2.
Are people not buying sedans because crossovers have gotten more fuel efficient?
This is awesome and I love it, but 100k may be a bridge too far. Build the factory here, make it cheaper, and sell a bunch here!
These are a fantastic truck with no other company besides Ford building this type of vehicle. Being a truck owner myself I would purchase the hybrid version of the Maverick ASAP if it was available in Australia with the fuel economy price and practical nature of the vehicle unmatched in the segment. And the vehicle still has room for growth with a small electric motor able to be bolted to the rear axle to make an AWD version. 😎🇦🇺👍
The Jetta is too long and bland-looking.
about time vw!!!!! looks so much better
I got a 2023 compass red turbo. I love it.
Where are the parking sensors?
I love the design of this Jetta. I had a 2019 that I replaced with a new GLE.. I wish VW wouldn’t have put touch sensitive steering wheel and climate controls.
