2026 Hybrid SUV lands March 4.

What got better

Three real upgrades, in order of how much they’ll matter to a buyer who’s actually driving the thing every day:

1. Hybrid battery up from 1.6 to 2.1 kWh. EV-only mode now usable up to 28 mph (was 22). Combined fuel economy bumps from 38 to 41 mpg on the EPA cycle. Real-world: we’d expect ~39 in mixed driving on our test loop, vs ~36 on the 2025.
2. 12.3in display becomes 14.1in standard. Wireless CarPlay + Android Auto stay standard. The trim drop is real — the 2025’s mid-trim premium-display upgrade is now base. Net price, like-for-like spec, is $380 lower.
3. Adaptive cruise extends to 0 mph. Previously cut out below 25 mph. Stop-and-go traffic just got materially less tiring.

What didn’t change

The platform is the same as 2024/2025 (this is a refresh, not a generation change). Drivetrain spec, chassis, seating dimensions, cargo volume — all carry-over. Warranty is unchanged: 3 yr / 36k bumper-to-bumper, 5 yr / 60k powertrain, 10 yr / 100k hybrid battery.

What we’re doing about 2025 inventory

We have 6 × 2025 Hybrid SUV in stock as of writing. We’re holding the price; we’re not discounting just because a refresh landed. The 2025 isn’t suddenly a worse car. If you want the new display, the bigger battery, and the better cruise — order a 2026. If you want a 2025 at the 2025 price, six of them are sitting on the lot today and the 7-day exchange window applies.

Reservations + first-allocation policy

Reservations open this morning at 9am. First-come, first-served on the eight March-wave allocations. Refundable $500 deposit; 60-day price lock. After the first eight, the next 12 are queued for the early-April wave; we’ll confirm exact build slots within 72 hours of reservation.

Test-drive units land March 4 alongside the first allocation; we’ll have two on the lot for unscheduled drives all of week one.
