2026 Nissan LEAF & 2026 Land Rover Defender 110

Season 45 Episode 33 | 26m 46s

The Nissan LEAF once played a critical role in making the electric vehicle available to the masses, and it’s back now for a third generation. We’ll rake up all the changes in our first test, then we’ll soldier on with the Land Rover Defender 110. We’ll also feature a special “FYI” report on adaptive driving tech and host a “Your Drive” pep talk on DIY brake work.
