    Cadillac Escalade IQ & OPTIQ First Drives, Honda Civic Si Road Test, & the all-new Acura ADX

    In Podcast #350, Jessica Ray steps in as host for a vacationing John Davis. Her and the MotorWeek crew have a small constellation of vehicles to talk about, starting with two new entries into Cadillac’s all-electric IQ portfolio: the OPTIQ, yes, spelled with an ‘IQ’ at the end, and the Escalade IQ. Then we’ll shift over to the Honda Civic Si, a name known and loved by many enthusiasts, and one that recently benefited from a model-line refresh. We’ll wrap up with an all-new ride from their sister company Acura, the 2025 ADX, which makes their utility lineup bigger…by going smaller. But before that we’ll focus our energy into a Lighting Round about lightning-fast EV charging tech and answer a double-header viewer question about using up all that recouped charge.
