The struggle is real for Nissan. The Japanese brand didn't have a good year in 2024, and with tariffs wreaking all kinds of havoc on the industry, 2025 will have its own set of challenges. Now, it sounds like plans for two new US-made Nissan electric sedans have been canceled.

Nissan is axing two more EVs from its planned U.S. portfolio. This time it's two sedans that the brand says simply aren't appealing to consumers anymore because they're, well, sedans. But don't worry—there's an electric crossover planned to replace it. Because Nissan has nothing like that at all.

Drivers To New Car Tech: Leave Me The Hell Alone, Please

It's great when tech just works, am I right? Especially in-car tech—nobody wants to be fiddling with a million menus to turn on the wipers or dealing with a driver assist system that slams on the brakes for no good reason (looking at you, Tesla Autopilot). Sometimes I feel like…
