THE EV SHOW BY LUDICROUS FEED ON WEDNESDAY NIGHTS

EV Channels Review

This episode of The EV Show by Ludicrous Feed covers a wide range of EV news, with a significant focus on the exciting new Rivian R2 and R3. The hosts express strong admiration for Rivian's design and its potential to capture a broader market, particularly with the more affordable R2 and R3 models, though they acknowledge production scaling challenges. The discussion also delves into the growing EV adoption in Australia's outer suburbs, highlighting the practical benefits for commuters. A major point of contention is the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries (FCAI) and its stance on proposed fuel efficiency standards, with Tesla and Polestar reportedly withdrawing due to disagreements over transparency and industry representation. The show commends the NSW government's new Vehicle Emissions Star Rating website for promoting transparency. Other topics include Polestar price reductions, Cupra Born sales, potential security concerns with BYD dash cams, Tesla's software updates, and the expansion of NRMA's charging network in the Northern Territory. The hosts also touch upon IKEA beginning to charge for EV charging, a move they support to prevent charger 'camping'.
