The Subaru Effect

Gears and Beers: The Unashamedly Unprofessional Automotive Podcast

We are back for episode 197! We kick off with a bit of bollocks, and talk about the Audi R8 being killed off in Australia due to changes in emissions regulations, but weirdly, the Lamborghini Huracan remains, and ADR-85 becomes a mandatory requirement for new vheicles sold in Australia.

Joseph then talks about the Hyundai Staria people mover, which, we all actually think its pretty sick, and Mitch rants about indicator positioning on the Hyundai Kona rear indicator, and the Hyundai Ioniq.

Mitch then talks about Porsche commiting to maintiang petrol power in the 911, and hybrid and zero-emission variants of the 718 Cayman/Boxter are rumoured to be coming in the not too distant future. Then we talk about the visual monstrosity that is the 2022 Subaru WRX which is coming to Australia mid-2022 and will be offered with a 6-speed manual and a CVT (if you hate yourself).

We then go on about Volkswagen's excessive and unnecessary range offered in Australia, and their million different sizes of SUV offered.

And we talk about old Hondas for a bit, and ask what hot hatch we'd pick.

We then end on Car Wold Cup.
