EXTREME E ARCTIC X PRIX RECAP AND MORE: THE EV RESOURCE PODCAST #77

EV Channels Review

The EV Resource Podcast, episode 77, covers several key EV topics, with a particularly harsh critique of the Mazda MX-30. The reviewer labels it a 'compliance car' from a decade ago, highlighting its meager 73-mile EPA range, 50kW DC fast charging, and a price point that makes it uncompetitive against used EVs or even a new gas-powered Mazda CX-30. The MX-30's 'Elite Access Loaner Program,' offering owners a gas car for longer trips, is cited as evidence of Mazda's perceived incompetence or disinterest in EVs. The podcast also touches on Chevy Bolt owners ignoring recall safety recommendations, the intriguing Alpha Wolf electric truck with its appealing styling and price, and a bizarre update on a Tesla Model S being converted into a submarine. The Extreme E Arctic X Prix recap provides extensive detail on the race's dramatic qualifying sessions and thrilling final, ultimately crowning Andretti United as winners, marking their first victory of the season.
