The Road Reflected

On this episode of The Road Reflected Podcast, Nicole spends the week in the all-new Mazda CX-90 plug-in hybrid. This PHEV has three rows of seating with room for the whole family in a spacious and absolutely beautiful interior. She also talks about hybrid vs EVs in the rush toward electrification and heads to Asheville, North Carolina where she enjoys the most indulgent cinnamon rolls.

Nicole drives the Toyota Highlander Hybrid SUV and the Honda CRV Hybrid for some fuel-efficient drive time in a pair of great family cars. She also checks out a sweet bakery in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin for tasty cookies and cake pops.

This week Nicole drives the Toyota Sienna minivan with its fancy second-row captain's chairs. She also flies to Detroit to check out the latest from Buick from the Encore GX with the new tri-shield badge to the all-new Envista.

We share our thoughts on the Ford Expedition (spoiler: it's massive) and talk about why the Hyundai Ioniq 5 Disney 100 Concept was Nicole's favorite car at the New York Auto Show. We also discuss the merits of free auto show coffee and discover a new place for cookies thanks to Jeep.

In the inaugural episode of The Road Reflected, we talk about the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and the new Hyundai Ioniq 6 and decide they both sort of look like Vipers from Battlestar Galactica. We also dish a bit on treats from cookies at Crumbl to pies on both coasts.
