The Unnamed Automotive Podcast is back on track with a pair of thorough reviews, starting with Benjamin's take on the 2025 Audi SQ6 e-tron. This electric crossover takes on the likes of the Genesis GV70 and BMW iX, but comes up short in one key way. Then Sami shares his thoughts on the 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport, which may not be the most capable, but certainly looks tough. Then the guys discuss a Miata-focused question from a listener.

Show Notes
The show starts with Benjamin's review of the 2025 Audi SQ6 e-tron, a performance minded electric crossover which seems to nail so many thing, but falls short of its rivals in one key area; can you guess where? Benjamin's review of the EV expands to a wider discussion of its rivals that you don't want to miss.
Then Sami shares his thoughts on the 2026 Honda Passport TrailSport, a rugged looking SUV with the same bones as the Pilot, but with fewer seats. While it looks tough and offers a few handy features that are useful off-road, Sami claims this isn't a true all-terrain SUV comparable to the likes of the Wrangler, 4Runner, Bronco and others. Then the guys wonder what's in the water at all the automaker HQs that make them so off-road-trim happy.
The show finishes up by tackling a tough, Miata-minded question from a listener. Thanks for listening!
