EPISODE 33 - POLESTAR 2 REVEAL, HONDA E, BASE MODEL 3 RELEASED AND SO MUCH MORE EV NEWS!

EV Channels Review

This episode of EV Revolutions focuses on significant EV news, notably the long-awaited release of the $35,000 Tesla Model 3 base model. The reviewer highlights its 220-mile range and a slightly better 'Standard Range Plus' variant. While acknowledging Tesla's sales potential, the host argues against the notion that this release will end competition, emphasizing the vastness of the EV market and the need for multiple manufacturers to succeed. The review then shifts to the Polestar 2 reveal, praising its premium positioning, dual-motor AWD, and estimated 500km WLTP range. The interior design, Android-powered infotainment, and safety focus are commended, though the smartphone key fob integration is met with slight skepticism. The Honda E prototype is also discussed, with the reviewer initially questioning its 125-mile range but coming to appreciate its urban-centric design and practicality. Other news includes spy shots of the Audi e-tron Sportback, leaked images of the Peugeot e-208, and BMW iNEXT, alongside production constraints for the Mercedes EQC. The episode concludes with a preview of the Fully Charged Live events in the UK and US.
