Apple’s New Siri, EVs, BMW’s Electric M3 And The Future Of Cars

Roberto and Jon are back for another unscripted Tailoring Talk Magazine catch-up, starting with the strange feeling of swapping an Apple Watch for a proper Omega Seamaster at dinner and what that says about style, habits and dressing like a grown up.From there, the conversation moves into Apple’s latest software betas, the promise of a genuinely useful Siri AI, whether Apple could replace paid AI tools like ChatGPT or Claude for everyday users, and why privacy, on-device processing and private cloud compute could make Apple’s approach especially interesting for work, productivity and personal organisation.The second half of the episode turns into a deep dive on cars and the future of the motoring industry. Roberto and Jon discuss the first images of BMW’s upcoming electric M3, the changing design language of EVs, why battery range and software may matter more than old-fashioned badge prestige, and how Chinese manufacturers such as BYD, Jaecoo and Omoda could reshape the car market in the UK.They also get into used Porsche Taycan values, Hyundai’s Ioniq 9, the rise of chunky EV design, whether premium brands still have real badge power, and why the next generation of car buyers may judge vehicles very differently to those of us who grew up with petrol engines, Sunday drives and poster cars.A wide-ranging conversation covering watches, style, Apple, AI, EVs, BMW, Porsche, Hyundai, Chinese car brands, car finance, software, batteries and why the whole car industry might be entering its biggest shift in decades. Timestamps00:00 - Apple Watch habits, Omega Seamaster nostalgia and dressing like a grown up03:55 - iOS beta reactions and the promise of Apple’s new Siri AI05:27 - ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI tools and Roberto’s new Arsenal Women podcast idea12:21 - Real-world Siri AI examples and why Apple’s approach could be a game changer21:19 - The new electric BMW M3 and the changing design language of cars27:21 - Used Porsche Taycans, EV practicality and choosing cars for real life37:23 - Chinese EVs, badge power and the future of the car industry Hosted on Acast.
