The Little EV Industry That Could
About this episode
Description:
In this episode of Kilowatt, we dive into the latest in EV and clean energy news. We start with Toyota’s debut electric pickup, the Hilux BEV, which offers just 149 miles of range. We then dissect the EV sales narrative, has demand really cooled or is the media spinning the story? We examine Ford’s electric F-150 and Ford's EV business loses. Aptera advances its EV plans with a new validation assembly line, while Rivian’s CEO secures a massive $4.6 billion compensation package. Plus, we touch on Tesla's loss of a key program manager and discuss EV market surges in the UK and France.
