But the story didn’t end there. Nik Miles drives four EVs that define what comes next: the 2026 Nissan Leaf, Volkswagen ID. Buzz, Ford Mustang Mach-E GT, and Audi A6 e-tron.

How are automakers pivoting? Which models actually make sense without incentives? And is the future of electrification doomed… or finally growing up?

When the $7,500 federal EV tax credit disappeared on September 30, 2025, the electric-car world went into shock. But the story didn’t end there. Nik Miles drives four EVs that define what comes next: the 2026 Nissan Leaf, Volkswagen ID. Buzz, Ford Mustang Mach-E GT, and Audi A6 e-tron.

How are automakers pivoting? Which models actually make sense without incentives? And is the future of electrification doomed… or finally growing up?

This video breaks down pricing, range, performance, charging, and the real-world future of electric cars in a post-credit America.

Odometer fraud didn’t die with analog dashboards. In fact, it’s having a disturbingly strong comeback. Digital odometers were supposed to protect buyers, but scammers have found new ways to roll back mileage with cheap tools, stolen software, and frighteningly simple hacks.

Nik Miles breaks down how the scam works, how widespread it’s becoming in 2023, what signs to look for, and how to protect yourself before buying your next used car. If you’re shopping the market, this is one video you don’t want to skip.

I flew to Munich, Germany, to get an early look at the all-new Mercedes-Benz CLA Concept, the sleek four-door that previews the future of Mercedes design and technology. This concept sets the tone for the next generation of electric and hybrid CLA models, with a striking aerodynamic profile, a minimalist cabin built around the new MB.OS interface, and a focus on long-range efficiency. In this video, I walk around the car, dive into the design cues, talk about what’s changing for the production version, and show why this might be one of the most important compact luxury cars of the next decade.
