  <description>Welcome to Episode 23!

Plus, Nathan recaps his week with the Lincoln Navigator, Nick debates whether the Buick Encore Avenir is really worth several thousand more over a loaded Chevy Trax, and we actually find a thing or two to like about the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross.
Here's what we drove this week:
2024 Kia EV9
2024 Lincoln Navigator
2024 Buick Encore Avenir
2024 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross

  <description>Welcome to Episode 17! Heads up: we'll be off for the next two weeks. Catch y'all in 2024!
We spent the last couple of weeks driving boxes on wheels! Nathan speaks his thoughts on Kia's all-new EV9 and Volvo's sensibly juicy V90 Polestar, and Imran tells us all about the Land Rover Defender 130 Outbound.
Nick, on the other hand, didn't drive a box on wheels last week — but rather the best-kept secret in BMW's electric lineup, the i4. Also, don't tell anyone, but he admitted he actually likes the front end. He might need an eye test.
Here's what we drove:
* 2024 Kia EV9
* 2024 Volvo V60 Polestar
* 2024 Land Rover Defender 130 Outbound
* 2024 BMW i4 xDrive 40e
* 2024 Hyundai Tucson N-Line Hybrid

  <description>Welcome to Episode 12 of the DoubleClutch.ca Podcast!
Nathan has fallen in love yet again. This time, it's with a big V8 sedan that won't be around for much longer. Why are his affairs so passionate yet so short-lived?
Plus, with the 2024 Chevy Trax RS in the garage this week, the crew ponders what happend to all the "cheap" cars you could've bought not too long ago. (Hint: they've all become more expensive crossovers — except for the Trax, which has somehow stayed under $30K fully loaded despite its glow-up for 2024.) As well, we have the 2024 Hyundai Kona in the garage, Imran is yearning for a Mazdaspeed CX-30, and BMW's X7 M60i proves techy and gimmicky three-row SUVs don't have to be boats. 
What we drove this week:
2024 Chrysler 300C Final Edition
2024 Chevrolet Trax RS
2024 Hyundai Kona
2024 Mazda CX-30
2024 BMW X7 M60i

This week, Nick is joined in-studio by Adi and Rush, and Rush has a confession to make: after putting a ton of work into his G50-era 911 Targa, he likes the car, but doesn't love it. Is chasing perfection in classic cars really worth it?
Plus, we talk about the 2023 Volkswagen ID.4, the 2024 Ford F-250 Super Duty, and Adi can't stop borrowing his dad's new car, a 2022 Mercedes-Benz S 580.

  <description>This week, the team has the 2024 Mercedes-AMG C 43 in the garage, and that begs the question: between the Benz, BMW M340i, and Lexus IS 500, who makes the sport sedan to rule them all?
Plus, Imran comes to terms with getting old after driving the Lincoln Corsair, Nathan is smitten with the physics-defying BMW X5 M Competition, and Nick is spending a week with the Mercedes-Benz EQE 500, a (very expensive) fridge on wheels.
What we drove:

  <description>Episode 7 is here!

Plus, Nick and Nathan talk about their recent NPC-mobiles, BMW's absolutely massive 760i xDrive, and ponder what, exactly, is so special about the Toyota 4Runner.
What we drove this week:
Ferrari 488 GTB
BMW 760i xDrive
Chevy Equinox 
Lexus NX 350 F-Sport
Mercedes-Benz GLC 300
