Hello and welcome to Overdrive, a program that looks at the fantasises and fallacies of anything to do with motoring and transport.

In our feature interview we talk to the Chief Operating Officer of Kia Australia about their current position and the future directions of the company.
We road test the “rebranded” Renault Megane.
And in our panel discussion with Errol Smith and Brian Smith we chat about a range of subjects including:
- ‘Superhuman’ bends car door to save driver (US – queue 6 million dollar man sound effect)
