Least Cool Ferrari Ever
from Slate Money
This week: Ferrari revealed its new EV designed by Jony Ive and it looked so bad it became a meme. Felix Salmon, Elizabeth Spiers, and Emily Peck, discuss the reaction to the $640,000 Ferrari Luce and how this story fits into the overall state of the electric vehicle market. Then, the hosts dig into the stat dashboard the U.N. wants to replace GDP as the main prosperity metric and debate whether GDP is even relevant enough for it to matter. And finally, they’ll examine why the UK and Europe are still so resistant to air conditioning despite being plagued by deadly heatwaves. In the Slate Plus episode: The lawsuit loophole used to report on the JP Morgan sex scandal. Want to hear that discussion and hear more Slate Money? Join Slate Plus to unlock weekly bonus episodes.
