#264 2020 Range Rover Evoque Test Results; 2021 Ford Bronco Debut

This week we share our test results of the 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, and discuss if the\\xa0compact luxury SUV retains the swagger the brand is known for. Also, Ford has unveiled\\xa0its brand new Bronco for 2021! We run through all the specs, pricing, the numerous trim levels (with names like Black Diamond, Badlands, and Sasquatch!) and talk about the nostalgia\\xa0that the Bronco name plate brings. We wrap up with audience questions about retrofitting your vehicle with wireless Apple CarPlay, whether buying a plug-in hybrid like the Toyota RAV4 Prime is a good buy if you don\'t have\\xa0access to a charging station, replacements for a college graduate\'s Hyundai Elantra (SUV or pickup truck?), and how to start a career in the automotive journalism industry.
