Volkswagen treated the Taos to a refresh for the 2025 model year, updating its grille, headlights and interior and upping engine output, but for 2026, little changes for the small SUV.

For the 2026 model year, the Honda Accord gains more standard equipment, including a larger touchscreen, wireless smartphone connectivity and wireless charging.

For the 2026 model year, Nissan has dropped the entry-level 2.5 S trim and range-topping SL of its Altima mid-size sedan, but an SR Midnight Edition has been added.

For 2026, the ID.4’s entry-level battery has (for now, at least) been dropped entirely; the only other change is that the ID.4 now sports a NACS charge port.

On sale now, both the gas-only and plug-in hybrid Volvo XC90 SUVs are available in three trim levels and with three rows of seats.

The new 2026 Nissan Rogue Plug-in Hybrid is the first PHEV for Nissan in the U.S., and despite it being little more than a rebadged Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-in Hybrid, it’s still a useful addition to the Nissan showroom.

The Toyota Mirai largely carries over for 2026 with the only addition being a new wheel option, and it starts at $52,990 (including destination).

Subaru’s second EV nameplate is all-new for 2026, and pricing starts at $41,445 (with destination).

For 2026, the only way to get a gas-powered mid-size Audi fastback sedan is to scoop up a 621-hp RS 7 Performance, which carries over unchanged except for newly available blue brake calipers.

Having received minor tweaks to their head- and taillights for 2025, the Volkswagen GTI and Golf R are unchanged for 2026.
