Show Notes
Is Jaguar’s radical new Type 01 the start of a glorious new chapter or a massive gamble? Ginny, Nicola and Mike get stuck into the biggest EV stories of the week, including BMW’s latest electric SUV and its astonishing 500-mile-plus range.
We’re also looking ahead to the Paris Motor Show, where a host of exciting new concepts are set to steal the spotlight, and checking out Renault’s latest Espace concept. Plus, we’re answering your questions! Should you splash out on a fabric roof for your new Renault 4? How does regenerative braking actually make an EV more efficient? And what should you do when your electric car’s infotainment system decides to go on strike?
There’s plenty of listener feedback, too, as we hear from new EV owners in Australia, debate the cost of public charging and VAT, and discover what you really thought of last week’s show. And, of course, there’s time for more kipper-related controversy…
