Detroit Bureau Chief
Aaron Bragman
Detroit Bureau Chief Aaron Bragman has had over 25 years of experience in the auto industry as a journalist, analyst, purchasing agent and program manager. Bragman grew up around his father’s classic Triumph sports cars (which were all sold and gone when he turned 16, much to his frustration) and comes from a Detroit family where cars put food on tables as much as smiles on faces. Today, he’s a member of the Automotive Press Association and the Midwest Automotive Media Association. His pronouns are he/him, but his adjectives are fat/sassy.

The new 2025 Nissan Rogue Rock Creek looks like a tough off-roader, but don’t go too far off the beaten path with it.

We recently charged our all-electric long-term Kia EV9 at a Tesla Supercharger
and came away feeling we’ll stick to much faster non-Tesla DC fast chargers for quick charging.
