EP. 43 | DM PODCAST

EV Channels Review

The Daily Motor Podcast episode 43 delves into a variety of automotive topics, including a discussion on the Nissan Leaf and Toyota Camry Hybrid. The hosts express a general disappointment with the 2023 Nissan Leaf, citing its outdated charging network, slow fast charging, cheap interior, and a high price point of $37,000, especially when compared to competitors like the Chevy Bolt which offers a longer range and a more functional interior for a similar price. Despite these criticisms, they acknowledge the Leaf's realistic range estimation and unique 30-spoke wheels. The podcast also touches upon the new Subaru WRX, with one host surprisingly enjoying its manual transmission, shifter, steering, and throttle response, despite finding the infotainment system terrible and the ride overly stiff. Other segments include discussions on BMW M4 CSL power figures, Hyundai DCT recalls, and personal anecdotes about car damage and teenage driving mishaps.
