    Vehicle Technology Is Becoming a Brand Growth Engine: Inside the 2026 AutoTECHCAST Study
    2026/09/05
    Full self-driving vehicles, in-car payment systems, and smart home ecosystem integration are among the innovations The Harris Poll identifies as part of the "next wave" in its 2026 AutoTECHCAST study, an annual survey of more than 10,000 U.S. consumers examining which automotive technologies are most likely to drive purchase decisions and brand loyalty. The 2026 findings also show how younger generations have placed increasing importance on technology over the past decade, citing it as a deciding factor in which make and model they choose, and why. Join AV Radio host Carl Anthony as he sorts through key data points from the 2026 AutoTECHCAST survey, comparing and contrasting the findings with his own experience of brand loyalty growing up in a small rural Iowa community in the 1990s.

    Built to Be Driven ft. Stuart Wilson of Velocity Restorations
    2026/08/08
    For U.S. Navy veteran Stuart Wilson, a difficult restoration project led him to create the process and client experience he wished existed in the first place. What began as a small garage operation, shaped by the problems Stuart ran into restoring his own Bronco, became Velocity Restorations, a company now operating from a 135,000-square-foot facility in Florida, building what's known as Re-Engineered Classics. AutoVision News Radio host Carl Anthony met with Stuart at The Henry, Autograph Collection in Dearborn, Michigan, where the two sat inside his personal truck, a Founder's Series International Scout, to talk shop. The two discuss the difference between a restomod and a Re-Engineered Classic, how the buyer base continues to evolve, and why Velocity-built vehicles are meant to be driven, enjoyed, and even passed down.

    Making the Most of Your 2026 Tax Refund for Your Car
    2026/05/02
    Spring has arrived, and for many of us, that means dealing with seasonal allergies and taxes. While this episode of AutoVision News Radio won’t help with the sneezing and watering eyes (unless you count moral support), it can certainly help you make the most of your 2026 tax refund. With the average IRS refund estimated at $3,500, AV Radio host Carl Anthony explores how to turn that one-time check into a long-term investment for your vehicle. We discuss how a principal-only payment can shave months off a car loan, which maintenance services are most important for longevity, and how to modernize your daily commute with something like a premium radar detector.

    No Transmission, No Problem: Inside the 2027 Nissan Rogue e-POWER
    2026/04/21
    Nissan has unveiled a dual-pathway approach to its North American electrification strategy with the introduction of the 2027 Rogue Hybrid e-POWER. Debuting at the 2026 New York International Auto Show, this unique series-hybrid system distinguishes itself from competitors like the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V in a few key ways. On this AV Radio episode, Carl Anthony expands on the specifics of the e-POWER system, which utilizes the gasoline engine as a generator. Complete with Nissan's dual-motor AWD system and the return of the e-Pedal, the Rogue Hybrid e-POWER could be an attractive option for buyers not quite ready for a full EV.

  • Highway Robbery: Anatomy of a Toll Road Scam

    Highway Robbery: Anatomy of a Toll Road Scam
    2026/04/14
    It starts with a ping on your phone: "According to our records, you have an outstanding toll charge." It looks official, cites municipal codes, and threatens a late fee or legal action if the balance remains unpaid. But there’s a catch. You haven't been to that state recently, if at all. On this episode of AutoVision News Radio, Carl Anthony examines the recent surge of toll-related text scams. Drawing from his latest reporting for technology website How-To Geek, Carl explains why these "smishing" attacks are so effective and how scammers exploit our desire to be law-abiding citizens to steal sensitive financial data. In this AV Radio episode:
    • The Spray-and-Pray Method: Why you're getting texts from states you've never visited.
    • Red Flags: How to spot the differences between a fake URL and a legitimate agency site.
    • Verification vs. Panic: Safe ways to check your account status without falling into a trap.
    • Protective Steps: What to do if you continue to receive these messages.

  • “I Read Them All” ft. Sam Klemet of the Detroit Auto Show

    “I Read Them All” ft. Sam Klemet of the Detroit Auto Show
    2025/12/31
    My Drive. My City. My Show. Although written as three individual statements as part of the high-octane creative campaign around the Detroit Auto Show, we could easily rephrase them as questions. For us in The 313, what does our drive look like? What should our city be? And what does our show—the Detroit Auto Show—mean to us? Sam Klemet, Executive Director of the Detroit Auto Dealers Association, joins AV Radio host Carl Anthony for a heartfelt discussion about the 2026 Detroit Auto Show and the immersive experience that awaits attendees. A journalist by nature, Sam recalls his early days in radio and his tenure as President and CEO of the Michigan Association of Broadcasters, and how those experiences prepared him to eventually helm the Detroit Auto Show. He also shares the legacy he hopes the Detroit Auto Show will one day leave and why, when it comes to criticisms of the event, it’s essential to “read them all.” More Resources: Detroit Auto Show Website: https://detroitautoshow.com/ My Drive.
