Thanks for being here Jeff. - Thank you very much for having me. - So Jeff what trends are you seeing at this year's Auto Show.

Well, I mean as it's probably going to be clear we're seeing a heavy push towards electrification, be it just regular hybrids, plug-in hybrids or full battery electrics.

Like the car standing behind me, that's a Kia EV6 GT, and it's this amazing five passenger, electric vehicle that makes almost 600 horsepower which is such a crazy number.
-
6
Can you share any big reveals? - Absolutely, Kia again also revealed their refresh celtos crossover which looks a little bit more rugged makes more horsepower, and has some really great tech inside.

And then Porsche showed off a brand new version of its 911, called the 911 Dakar, which is a reference to a crazy awesome off-road race, so this is a 911 sports car designed to go in the dirt.

Okay, so what's the coolest thing you've seen so far? - It's just the coolest thing I've seen so far, is just everybody's different take on electrification.
-

It's just really neat to see how they're packaging it, what kind of range they're getting, what size batteries they're using.

And then beyond that, I got to go back to the Porsche, because it's just too awesome. - In the other cool things you've seen?
-

I like the fact that here at the LA Auto Show they have, it's not just looking at the car's static out front.
-
12
They actually have a ride and drive experience where you can try out a lot of the different electric vehicles.
-
13
And see what it's like to drive in them, and just feel how they move, and what the screens look like.

It gives the people coming to the show much more to do than just look at these cars sitting here. - Thanks so much, Jeff, for more information visit autotrader.com.
