Episode 238: Seattle Recap, EV Tax Bill, Volkswagen's CEO Swap, Truck Talk

On today’s episode, Jo and Matt jump right in with a recap of Electrify Expo: Seattle to fill you in on who was there, what stood out, and what you missed if you weren’t able to attend. Next, they explore a newly proposed bill that would bring some major tax credit changes for electric vehicles. Then, the two talk about the potential consequences of Herbert Diess (Volkswagen CEO) leaving VW and being replaced by Oliver Blume (Porsche CEO). Finally, the episode wraps up with some talk about Toyota’s battery efficiency efforts, Volvo’s “Care By Volvo” subscription program, why low use cases are not good indicators of EV functionality, and how Tesla’s Cybertruck stacks up against EV trucks from Ford, Rivian, Chevy, and Hummer.-----FOLLOW:InstagramTwitterFacebookWebsiteATTEND ELECTRIFY EXPO:New York (Aug 27-28)Miami (Oct 8-9)Austin (Nov 11-13)PRODUCED BY:Alex Lagos / Lagos Creative
