Episode 469: 2027 BMW iX3, 2026 Ford Explorer Tremor

Class is back in session as the Unnamed Automotive Podcast tackles the BMW Neue Klasse, the platform that underpins the 2027 iX3 that Benjamin is reviewing this week. This electric SUV (well, maybe more like a wagon) is designed to optimize it's EV powertrain, and Benjamin has a lot to say about the new iX3's performance and interior. Of course using an all-new platform means the car features an equally fresh infotainment system, and that's where the majority of this week's discussion takes place. What is a gimmick? What is safe? Why are screens and information so far away?

After that Sami gives an update on the Ford Explorer Tremor he's testing, with the four cylinder engine this time. Then the guys say good bye, but be aware of the show's ten year anniversary that's coming up!
