I do focus groups on occasion. It's NDA shielded so typically not a lot I can say about specifics. In general terms, I see a lot more interest in hybrid concepts than pure EVs now. If some of these come to fruition, there's going to be a new horsepower war that mixes the best of EV and ICE into one peel your eyebrows off delivery system. Potential fleet use for same but tuned for economy and longevity over pure power.
I suspect anyone who isn't putting R&D into these are going to lose more market share over the next decade...and I suspect someone isn't.

Mercedes Benz is just about the only company that is building V-8 engines for 2026 for N.A.
Drivers who like Mercedes-AMG don’t like the brand’s latest super sedans. That sounds strange, I understand, but longtime fans of the Affalterbach manufacturer were drawn to them by thumping V8s—not the four- and six-cylinder hybrids in the new C63 and E63. But there may be good news on the way as Car and Driver reports the models will once again be V8-powered come 2026.

Mercedes-AMG Is Bringing the V8 Back to C63 and E63 by 2026: Report
The German automaker just has to make the big V8 meet emissions, and then it's allegedly getting stuffed back into its smaller sedans.
