Episode 457: 2026 Subaru Trailseeker, 2026 Mazda Miata, Hankook Tire Test Update, Listener Questions
About this episode
The episode features reviews of the 2026 Subaru Trailseeker and Mazda MX-5 Miata, along with a tire update and listener questions.
The show starts with Sami's thorough review of the 2026 Subaru Trailseeker, an electric wagon that shares its bones with the Toyota bZ Woodland. Can a Subaru feel like the rest of its family while being so closely related to a Toyota, or does no one actually care if it feels all that different from an Outback or Forester? Then Benjamin pilots the 2026 Mazda MX-5 Miata around the rural backroads to find his happy place. A focused machine with no true rivals, Benjamin has plenty to say about the latest Miata, with a mostly positive spin. Finally Benjamin gives us an update on the new Hankook Ventus tires fitted to his Subaru Outback, and responds to some listener feedback. Thanks for listening! Links: Like what you hear?
