YouTube Video RkxFQVRQOTVOTTdpRVJFWEJnRF94VFFRLjgyRDJDQUNERDA0QTkyODk The 2026 Nissan Z Heritage Edition is here, and it hits the nostalgia button hard. Inspired by the legendary Z32 300ZX, this special Z blends retro design cues with modern twin-turbo performance, a manual gearbox, and just enough attitude to remind everyone why the Nissan Z still matters.

In this review, Nik Miles takes a closer look at the 2026 Nissan Z Heritage Edition, including its Z32-inspired styling, 400-horsepower twin-turbo V6, available 6-speed manual transmission, modern tech, safety features, and how it stacks up against rivals like the Toyota GR Supra and Ford Mustang GT.

We also look at the full 2026 Nissan Z lineup, including Sport, Performance, and NISMO models. The NISMO turns up the power to 420 horsepower with upgraded suspension, wider rear wheels, Dunlop performance tires, and a sharper track-ready personality.

Is the 2026 Nissan Z Heritage Edition just a styling package, or is it one of the most emotionally satisfying sports cars you can still buy? Watch the full review and decide if Nissan has finally built the modern nostalgia machine Z fans have been waiting for.

This is the Rivian R2, and it may be the electric SUV that takes Rivian from cool startup to mainstream American success story.

Rivian has already proved it can build desirable electric adventure vehicles, but the R2 is different. This is the smaller, more affordable, more practical SUV aimed directly at the heart of the EV market — where the Tesla Model Y has dominated for years.

In this video, Nik Miles drives the Rivian R2 in Park City, Utah, and looks at why this SUV matters so much for Rivian’s future. With up to 345 miles of estimated range, available dual-motor all-wheel drive, 656 horsepower, a 3.6-second zero-to-sixty time, a drop-down rear glass, flat-folding seats, clever storage, and access to Tesla Superchargers through NACS, the R2 could be Rivian’s biggest moment yet.

But the real question is not just whether the R2 is fast or clever. It is whether Rivian can build enough of them, price them right, and convince mainstream buyers to choose it over Tesla, Hyundai, Kia, Ford, and the rest of the EV field.

Is the Rivian R2 the SUV that finally puts Rivian shoulder to shoulder with Tesla?

Watch the full drive and find out.

America is turning 250, and the way we cross the country has changed almost beyond belief. Once, families packed wagons, risked everything, and spent months chasing a new life across dangerous trails. Today, Nik Miles crosses America in a Ford Mustang Mach-E GT with navigation, climate control, charging tech, podcasts, and BlueCruise.

In this episode, we compare the real cost of crossing America by wagon with the modern American road trip — and why Ford’s Fourth of July “Employee Pricing for All” campaign fits into a much bigger story about freedom, mobility, and how the automobile changed the country.

From wagon wheels to the Model T to today’s electric vehicles, America’s urge to move has never gone away. The technology just got a lot more comfortable.
Crossing America Used to Take 6 Months… Now Ford Is Cutting Prices
