Henry Sanderson - Volt Rush : electric cars and the race to go green

Once again transport is in the news. Is high speed rail the way forward? Should petrol and diesel cars be removed from sale by 2030? I moved over to an EV 8 years ago and have never been tempted to go back. In my experience the cars keep improving and much more slowly the charging infrastructure is getting marginally better. In Volt Rush Henry Sanderson tells the story of the electric car from the early 19th century to the current challenges facing the global industry. Although an electric vehicle doesn't emit carbon dioxide and is thus 'clean' the raw materials in the battery have to be mined somewhere. There is big money to be made. Who is winning the Volt Rush?
