Episode Description from the Publisher

In Podcast #386, John Davis and the MotorWeek crew look at the latest from Volvo as they work to update their core lineup vehicles in order to stay in the internal combustion game. Then we’ll also have our first impressions of the upcoming Nissan Rogue Hybrid as America finally gets a fuel efficient powertrain the rest of the world has enjoyed for almost a decade. Then a Lightning Round highlights some big shifts at Volkswagen as they slim down their global lineup and look to add a body-on-frame pickup to their U.S. offerings. And a viewer asks us to define some of the terms we constantly use on the show. *This episode released a few days late to meet the Nissan Rogue Hybrid’s embargo.
