TEN 544 – GM’S STRANGE LOW-SPEED RECORD, YOU CAN STOP THE EPA, BMW IX3 BEATS GAS

EV Channels Review

This episode of TEN provides a comprehensive overview of recent developments in the EV market, with a particular focus on US news and policy. A key highlight is BMW's iX3, which the review confirms becomes cleaner than a comparable gasoline car after just 21,500 km (13,400 miles) when charged on the European grid, a figure that drops to 17,500 km (10,800 miles) with renewable energy. The show also covers significant industry news such as the GM-Hyundai partnership on five new vehicles, Ford's 'Skunk Works' EV project, and updates on EV sales figures from major manufacturers. A critical segment addresses the EPA's proposed rollback of environmental regulations and urges US listeners to participate in the public consultation period. The review touches on various recalls and smaller news items, concluding with research on V2G technology and a GM Silverado EV range record, which is deemed a marketing stunt. Overall, the episode balances industry updates with important calls to action for consumers.
