New York Auto Show

The Hyundai Boulder concept was a highlight, if not the highlight, of the 2026 New York Auto Show.

Hey hey there! It's time for the TTAC podcast!

NEW YORK -- One of the things I love about New York City -- and other big cities, like Chicago or LA -- is the constant motion. Yes, sometimes it can overwhelm. But sometimes, it feels like all the motion isn't just the routine beats of daily life -- it feels like some sort of progress.

The 2026 New York International Auto Show gave off that vibe.

NEW YORK -- Which vehicle stole the show at the 2026 New York International Auto Show?

NEW YORK -- A dirty little secret that isn't so secret is that most of the auto-show coverage you read, including much of what you read here, is based upon embargoed press materials that automakers provide to us keyboard warriors in advance. The element of surprise that once marked auto-show press days is mostly gone.

Mostly. The Hyundai Boulder Concept was a true surprise to assembled media.

Few things are more authentically American than big SUVs with massive V8 engines, and the Dodge celebrates this country’s 250thanniversary with the debut of the 2026 Durango GT America250 in New York City.

Chrysler created the minivan market in the 1980s and in the late 2020s it’s still a leader in the segment with the 2027 Chrysler Pacifica unveiled at the 2026 New York International Auto Show revealing some evolutionary updates.

Subaru’s 2027 product lineup is getting all charged up with the new Forester Wilderness Hybrid and the all-new Getaway EV, which the company took the wraps off of today in New York.

Although electric vehicle sales have been down since last fall, the reveal of the all-new EV3 at the New York International Auto Show shows that Kia’s not bailing out of the segment. 

Kia’s ongoing revamp of its SUV lineup continues with the reveal of a larger, wider, and roomier 2027 Seltos at the New York Auto Show. 

With electric vehicle sales down, Volkswagen’s recent efforts have looked like strikeouts. So with the New York City debut of the 2027 Atlas SUV, the automaker needed a solid single — it got extra bases.

You may have noticed the site was quiet this morning. That's because I was traveling to NYC (no TSA issues, thank you) to cover the 2026 New York International Auto Show. And also because a lot of the show news is under embargo.

Yours truly will be getting a glimpse of the redone 2027 Volkswagen Atlas in the Big Apple tomorrow night.

After a few weeks of teases, Infiniti wanted to ensure the new 2027 QX65 would be a hit. Who knows more about hits than professional football players so former New England Patriots Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edelman took the stage March 26 to hype the coupe-style SUV.

The New York International Auto Show is right around the corner, Kia’s hype machine is ramping up, offering up an obscured look at the 2027 Seltos SUV a week before the ute debuts.

Nissan may be struggling these days, but the brand’s still got some fight left as it revealed an updated version of its popular Nissan Z for 2027, including a Nismo model with a six-speed manual transmission.

The press days of the 2025 New York International Auto Show are in the books.

I am back in Chicago after a productive whirlwind of two-ish days in Manhattan. The podcast went on the road to the 2025 New York Auto Show!

Last month, we reported that Volkswagen might add a surcharge on new vehicle pricing to compensate for additional tariff costs, but it now appears the automaker has had a change of heart – temporarily. It recently announced that it would hold firm on current pricing through at least the end of May as it determines the impacts of the trade war.

Kia has a slew of new and updated models at this year’s New York International Auto Show, including the 2026 K4 Hatchback and 2026 EV9 Nightfall Edition. The two vehicles join the new EV4 sedan on the Kia stage at the show.

NEW YORK -- We've brought you the 2025 New York International Auto Show debuts from Volkswagen, Kia, Hyundai, and Subaru. And there's more show coverage to come.

Kia used this year’s New York International Auto Show as the stage to reveal the new EV4, its first electric sedan. Expected to launch in early 2026, the car will arrive with up to 330 miles of range, a 400-volt platform, and a North American Charging Standard (NACS) port out of the box.

NEW YORK -- The wraps have come off of the 2026 Volkswagen Tiguan Turbo here at the 2025 New York Auto Show.

Technically speaking, the car is called the 2026 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL R-Line Turbo.

Subaru has chosen the New York International Auto Show as the place to debut the 2026 redesign of the Outback. Returning for a seventh generation, the model has been one of the best wagons still available on the North American market. Subaru would never call it a wagon, of course, and the redesign seems to be pushing the model more toward the SUV end of the spectrum.

The Hyundai Palisade debuted several years ago and quickly became one of the brand’s more popular models. It has remained a hot seller and a decent value over the years, and it’s getting a significant overhaul for the 2026 model year that brings big changes, including a new hybrid powertrain and styling updates.

Subaru revealed a pair of electric vehicles for the 2025 New York International Auto Show. One of these is the all-new 2026 Subaru Trailseeker EV, which will become the brand’s first battery electric utility vehicle, whereas the other model is an updated version of the Solterra crossover featuring improved range.

I am in New York for the 2025 New York Auto Show. It's that time of year again.

Red is a great color for many Italian cars, but the problem for Maserati is that it has been seeing the color more in its finances than on an exciting new car. Despite losing more than half its sales last year and seeing further declines this year, Maserati’s parent company, Stellantis, says it’s still devoted to the brand.

At next week’s New York International Auto Show (NYIAS), the Subaru brand will unveil an all-electric crossover-type vehicle – one bearing an entirely new nameplate.

This week we sit down with John Vincent, senior editor of vehicle testing at U.S. News & World Report, to discuss their best cars for families for 2024.

Last week in New York, I sat down with Brian Moody, the executive editor at AutoTrader, to discuss what was going in Manhattan at the 2024 New York Auto Show.

One of my favorite little nuggets of irony is that the Hell's Kitchen area of Manhattan is actually very well-to-do. It's not anything like any commonly imagined vision of hell, unless your vision of hell consists of yuppies, puppies, and way too many people.

Every year, different groups of auto journalists and industry professionals come together to choose a “best of” list to recognize vehicles in various categories. One of the groups is the World Car of the Year (WCOTY) jury, which includes journalists and professionals from several countries. They recently revealed their 2024 picks at the New York auto show, and it’s clear that legacy auto brands are facing increasingly tough competition.

Over the past week we've seen 2024 New York Auto show debuts from Infiniti, Nissan, Genesis, Hyundai, Mini, and Kia.

Which one has you thinking about heading to the dealer?

Mini has released the 2025 Mini Cooper Hardtop, specifically the performance variant that’s likely to appeal to enthusiasts that aren’t interested in the hardcore John Cooper Works version. The manufacturer is reviewing the model at the New York auto show this week and looks to have kept the car that’s slated for sale in North America quite close to its European counterpart — with a few exceptions.

NEW YORK -- Hyundai kicked off the 2024 New York International Auto Show by dropping the new Tucson and a refreshed Santa Cruz minitruck.

Tomorrow is the press/media day for the 2024 New York Auto Show. My rear end is currently parked behind a desk in my Midtown/Times Square hotel, which means I will be at the Jacob Javits Center tomorrow.

News broke earlier this week that Stellantis would pull out of auto shows, including the upcoming Chicago Auto Show, for the foreseeable future.

The headline says it all -- these are some photos I snapped while wandering the show floor in New York Wednesday and Thursday.

People love to buy SUVs, and some automakers have responded by tilting their vehicle offerings in favor of larger vehicles, though many remain committed to cars. Genesis isn’t giving up on its gorgeous luxury sedans anytime soon, as the company’s chief creative officer recently told Australian media that “it’s a mistake to basically write off a typology of a vehicle.”

For better or worse, a lot of people in this business on all sides (journalist, analyst, PR, pundit) tend to use any given auto show's press conference schedule, along with the type of debuts that occur/news that is made, as a metric for the health of the industry.

The 2023 New York Auto Show is wrapping up and we're wondering -- what car was the star of the show for you?

While we already covered the powertrains the 2024 Kia EV9 will receive, its North American premiere at the New York International Auto Show has given us more to chew on.

When the Subaru crew showed off the original Crosstrek, it was a lifted and ruggedized version of the Impreza. Now, they’re introducing a Wilderness trim of that vehicle, a – you guessed it – lifted and ruggedized version of the Crosstrek.

This means they’ve Crosstrek’d the Crosstrek.

Automakers love to tout “all-new” or “heavily refreshed” vehicles, but it’s often the case that only a few elements have changed. Jeep unveiled the 2024 Wrangler at the New York International Auto Show today, and while there’s a lot to talk about, this is still the rugged, sometimes-unruly off-roader we’ve seen for decades.
