2026 SEMA Show preview, SEMA Fest, Leno’s Law and more with SEMA CEO Mike Spagnola.
Q: What is Leno's Law? Why have you guys been fighting for it for so long? Explain what it is to consumers. How does it affect that?
Spagnola explains that the California law changes emissions-testing requirements for older vehicles through a rolling age exemption. He says it addresses the difficulty of testing older cars, especially pre-OBD2 vehicles, and can make it easier for owners to keep and work on them.
2026 SEMA Show preview, SEMA Fest, Leno’s Law and more with SEMA CEO Mike Spagnola.
Q: What's driving that growth?
Spagnola attributes some of the increase to inflation but says real growth is also visible across aftermarket segments, including custom cars, off-road vehicles and restomod builds.
CarCast+Edmunds - Interview with Rawdon Glover, Managing Director at Jaguar about the new Type 01 electric sedan.
Q: Launching a 100 grand EV, which is not an SUV, is old at the moment. How do you see that shaping out?
Glover says the market varies by segment and region, but buyers at this price point still value distinctive design, a refined and comfortable interior, and driving character. He says Jaguar chose an electric powertrain to support the car's desired proportions, power, and refinement.
CarCast+Edmunds - Interview with Rawdon Glover, Managing Director at Jaguar about the new Type 01 electric sedan.
Q: What gives you the confidence that this relaunch will work?
Glover points to Jaguar's history at higher price points and the success of premium JLR products such as Range Rover and Defender. He says the Type 01 retains Jaguar's DNA while adapting it for the 21st century.
The guys from the Roadster Shop joins us to talk about the chassis business, building cars, their thoughts on turn-key restomods and more.
Q: What do you think of that business model?
The guests welcome low-volume turnkey builders as customers with distinct needs and as a way to introduce more people to vintage cars. They describe supplier relationships as beneficial to engineering and production, while advising buyers to do due diligence with new companies.
