The Motor1.com team is scattered all over the globe. Even here in the US, we have editors in Los Angeles, a couple in Detroit, folks in Florida, Ohio, and more. We all love talking about what we're driving. The Test Car Happy Hour on Thursdays at 2:30 PM Eastern (11:30 AM Pacific) is where we have a face-to-face digital car meet. You can be part of the conversation by joining us during the show on Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube. Your comments automatically go into our streaming feed where we can see, share, and respond to them.
If you happen to be reading this after the live broadcast has ended, you can also find the audio version of The Test Car Happy Hour on all of your favorite streaming platforms, first thing every Monday morning.
This week we have Motor1.com Editor-in-Chief Seyth Miersma, Senior Editor Brett T. Evans, and Senior Editor Jeff Perez.
Going alphabetically by vehicle, an Audi Q8 E-Tron. This is the new name for the previous E-Tron. It's available in three powertrain levels: 50, 55, and SQ8. There are lots of screens inside, including the instrument cluster, infotainment display, and HVAC controls.
Miersma has the BMW 760i xDrive this week. Even if he doesn't like it, we get the impression his kids love the car.
I may not be the world’s best dad, but I did futz around with this @BMWUSA 760i - and its HUGE display - for 5 min so my kids can watch PJ Masks on the way home from daycare. pic.twitter.com/OmpjJ7EpUZ

Finally, Perez is driving a Chevrolet Silverado HD. For the 2024 model year, the updated truck has a revised dashboard with an available 12.3-inch driver display and a 13.4-inch touchscreen infotainment screen. It also gains adaptive cruise control that works when towing a trailer.
A major reason we do The Test Car Happy Hour every week is to answer your questions. Join us during the stream and let our talented editors share their experiences with you. They're ready to help you.
