Why Cars Cost $50K! EV Losses, RAV4 Review & Trump’s Tariff Move

Lauren Fix and Karl Brauer are joined by Brian Moody for a deep dive into why the average new car now costs $50,000. From EV losses and rising tariffs to the shrinking number of affordable models, this episode of The Drive breaks down what’s really driving prices up.

They also cover why more buyers are turning to used cars, whether EVs can ever replace ICE luxury and performance, and review the all-new 2026 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. Plus, predictions for the North American Car of the Year and analysis of President Trump’s new tariff extension.
