This week we traveled to the western edge of Montana near the Blackfoot River to soak in the latest version of the Subaru Forester, details of which we’ll be sharing May 6. Toyota made news with a big investment in its Princeton, Ind., factory, where it makes its three-row passenger cars in the Sienna, Highlander, and Grand Highlander, and where it will soon begin development of a battery electric Highlander to complement what is believed to be a bZ5X three-row electric crossover to be made in its Kentucky plant.
As if that weren’t interesting enough, Mercedes unveiled a fully-electric version of its iconic SUV, the G-Wagen. Interesting times. Here’s a look at what moved us in the automotive world this week.
I spent a week at home with Nissan’s bestselling model, and the refreshed Rogue compact crossover improves in all the right ways, with Google built-in making the infotainment experience as seamless as with a smartphone.

The 2025 Outback crossover wagon that put Subaru on the map decades ago mostly carries over this year, and Subaru kept the prices mostly the same. It still earns a high TCC Rating of 6.7 out of 10.

A full battery electric version of the iconic G-Class SUV uses four motors to make it even more off-road capable than the gas model. Check out its tank turn feature.

The Subaru Forester was the only one that could.
