Tesla wasn't the only carmaker to steal headlines in 2017. The Drive's Alex Roy joins us with a look at the year's best cars, and provides a sneak peak at what's to come next year. He discusses why, in his opinion, Tesla's Model 3 was the most important car of the year.
Despite the bad press, Roy says the Model 3 is the future of the auto industry. It's inspiring a wave of imitators trying to borrow from Tesla's success. The editor-at-large points to Jaguar's new electric model as one of the most promising potential "Tesla killers."
He also reveals why many are beginning to consider station wagons sexy. Roy discusses strong mid-size outings from both Porsche and Volvo. Finally, we consider the one car company making the most strides in the race towards autonomous driving.
We may not be headed for a 2008-esque disaster, but increased geopolitical tension paired with the end of the tech boom means volatility could stick around.
