PODCAST: TESLA MODEL 3 LIQUIDATION, ID BUZZ 3RD ROW, JAGUAR I-PACE RECALL, AND MORE

EV Channels Review

The Electrek Podcast discusses the potential liquidation of the Tesla Model 3 ahead of its 'Highland' refresh, with significant discounts now available on existing inventory. While the exterior of the refreshed Model 3 has been leaked, details about internal upgrades remain scarce, leading to speculation about potential cost reductions in production. The hosts also touch upon Tesla's stealth software updates, including improvements to auto wipers and automatic emergency braking, and a reduced timeout for FSD beta nags. The discussion then shifts to the Volkswagen ID. Buzz, which will offer a third-row option for the North American market, and the long-awaited Faraday Future FF91, which has begun deliveries with a high price tag and extensive use of buzzwords like 'AI'. Finally, Jaguar faces a recall of all I-Pace SUVs due to battery fire risk, a situation the hosts believe was predictable and should have been addressed sooner.
