Episode 416: 2026 Cadillac Vistiq, 2025 Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid

Author: Unnamed Automotive Podcast August 17, 2025 Duration: 47:48

Benjamin fires up the show with his take on the 2026 Cadillac Vistiq, an electric three-row crossover that seems to be replacing Caddy;s own XT6. With 102 kWh of battery on tap, and over 600 hp, this is a big player in the world of EVs, but what else makes it stand out? While the world of three-row EVs is relatively slim, Benjamin suggests that the Vistiq might have a chance to be the best in its class, if only GM could sort out some small teething issues first.

Then the show turns towards plug-in hybrids, as Benjamin and Sami quickly discuss the 2025 Toyota Prius PHEV. Formerly crowned as car of the year, the guys pinpoint what makes this Prius special compared to previous ones, and whether this plug-in variant is one of the best commuter cars on the market. Thanks for listening!

You’re probably used to car reviews that stick to horsepower figures and trim levels, but Unnamed Automotive Podcast takes a different exit. Each week, automotive journalists Benjamin and Sami sit down to tear apart the latest models and the industry at large, but they do it with a blend of genuine expertise and unscripted humor that feels more like a conversation in a garage than a formal critique. They get into the weird quirks of car culture, share honest opinions that often bypass the usual press kit talking points, and aren’t afraid to laugh at the absurdities they encounter. This isn’t just specs and performance data-though that’s in there, too-it’s about the stories, the personalities, and the unexpected moments that happen when you’re truly passionate about cars. Tuning into this podcast feels like hanging out with two friends who happen to know everything about automobiles, making it a perfect mix for anyone who loves cars, comedy, or just hearing a fresh, unfiltered take. You’ll find their chemistry drives the discussion, turning each episode into a ride that’s as entertaining as it is informative.
