The auto industry is changing faster than ever, but the biggest story is not just EVs. Automakers are rethinking prices, gasoline engines, electric vehicles, performance cars, safety, recalls, manufacturing costs and what buyers actually want.
In this roundup, we break down why a check engine light can return after a repair, the push for cheaper new cars, Porsche keeping the 911 focused on its traditional identity, Aston Martin delaying its first full EV, and the challenge of building an electric truck under $30,000.
We also cover a Range Rover Sport structural recall, why many modern cars no longer include spare tires, a pickup truck airbag recall, BMW M reaching one million cars, the updated 2027 Honda Civic Type R, Mercedes discontinuing several models, Japanese automakers working together on quality standards, the 2027 Toyota Grand Highlander Woodland, September auto sales winners and losers, the new Volkswagen Atlas, and a very unusual classic Toyota you can actually rent.
The bigger picture is clear: automakers are realizing that there is no single formula that works for every buyer. Price, reliability, safety, performance, fuel economy, EV range, technology and practicality all matter.
