Lauren Morrison

Shifting gears, Lauren Morrison is back in the driver’s seat at MotorWeek and is focusing on giving viewers the inside track on important consumer stories. Lauren’s Motor News segments track auto industry news, focusing on crash tests, safety ratings, new advances in technology and the latest from auto shows around the world.

Lauren first joined the MotorWeek team in 2015. Since then, she has been recognized by some of the most respected automotive journalism organizations in the country, winning an International Automotive Media Competition award for her work on an FYI segment highlighting tech-savvy teens and today’s cars.

Born in Hollywood, Florida, Lauren studied Communication and Mass Media at Florida State University before moving to Bangor, Maine to anchor the evening news for the local CBS affiliate. She headed south after that, reporting for the NBC affiliate in Huntsville, Alabama.

Before welcoming her first daughter in 2018, she would have said a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air convertible in tropical turquoise was her dream car. Now, you can find her drooling over the idea of a Chrysler Pacifica in her driveway….but, she still likes to let her hair down and take her dad’s 2013 Corvette Z06 for a trip around the track!
