Hello and welcome to Car and Drivers into Cars, a podcast from I Heart Media's

Ruby Studio brought to you by eBay Motors. I'm Tony Kiroga the editor-in-chief

of Car and Driver and I'm joined by my co-host,

former editor-in-chief and current chief brand and content officer Eddie Alterman, and together

we're into cars.

Each episode of this podcast covers a new car that we think is worthy of your attention.

The cars we select may feature a novel design, cutting-edge engineering, or something

We'll cover the stories behind the cars. edge engineering or something entirely new.
