THE BEST AND WORST OF THIS YEAR'S CES

EV Channels Review

The TFL team discusses their experiences at CES 2023, highlighting both the best and worst aspects of the show. They express significant frustration with CES's organizational issues, particularly the exorbitant $300 fee for replacing a lost press pass and the extremely slow, paid Wi-Fi in the media room, deeming it counterproductive for media promotion. On the positive side, they praise the Ram Revolution concept truck and the striking design of the Peugeot Inception concept, despite questioning its debut in North America. The Mercedes-Benz charging network initiative and the Volkswagen ID.7 are also noted as positive developments. The Vegas Loop, while convenient, is critiqued for its inefficiency compared to mass transit. The review concludes with disappointment over the lack of access to the Volvo EX90 and the perceived vaporware status of the Sony Afeela and Faraday Future vehicles, questioning the value of providing publicity to unproven companies.
