California is coming after your car again — with new tire rules, mileage tracking and another potential $900-a-year vehicle tax. But that’s not all on this week’s The Drive with Lauren and Karl.
Lauren Fix and Karl Brauer break down the biggest automotive stories of the week, including California’s latest anti-car moves and what they could mean for drivers across the country.
We also take a look at the new 2028 BMW M3 and how BMW is changing one of its most iconic performance cars, plus an exclusive interview with Constantin Buschmann, CEO of BRABUS, about the incredible new BRABUS BODO, named after the company’s founder and his father.
Then we ask a question every driver wants answered: Will the Venezuelan oil deal actually bring down gas prices, and if so, when?
Fall driving is also here. Lauren and Karl discuss cold-weather driving, leaves and slippery road conditions, and what you should know when choosing tires for the season.
And we expose the truth behind California’s new tire rules and the growing push toward automatic mileage tracking. California may be leading the charge, but other states are watching — and some are already considering similar policies.
