Biography

What began as a passion for test driving cars at dealerships in his youth evolved into Roger writing about these cars for online forums. This rapidly evolved into the formation of Roger's own website covering all things automotive. After several years running this site, Roger joined CarBuzz as a junior writer, covering a plethora of topics before leading his own team of writers and climbing the ranks to Managing Editor. Roger still loves getting his hands dirty writing about anything and everything car related, finding as much enjoyment in the mundane keyboard work as he does in driving new exotic cars. While his primary areas of expertise are in the new car scene, Roger's ownership of two classic Mazda Miatas (yes, they're classics now) gives him a broader frame of reference. Technically minded, Roger thrives on understanding more than just surface-level information, craving a deeper understanding of the reasoning behind why something is happening and how something works the way it does. Outside of motoring, Roger is also involved in equestrian sports commentary and has covered news in this area.

• The 2026 Honda Prelude's 'CVT' Won't Be As Bad As You Think Because It's Not Actually A CVT

  By Roger Biermann Verified| CarBuzz@ There's been a lot of hate for the forthcoming 2026 Honda Prelude, which will be fully revealed later this year. Some of it has been justified, but there's one area that perhaps we and the rest of the internet have been overly critical of: the e-CVT transmission Honda's giving it. I'll admit, we at CarBuzz have been referring to the transmission in the same way Honda does, calling it an e-CVT, but, here's the thing, it's not actually a CVT at all.
