TESLA CYBERTRUCK, COBALT MYTHS, FORD MUSTANG MACH-E & THE PROBLEM WITH SUVS | FULLY CHARGED NEWS

EV Channels Review

Robert Llewellyn reviews the Tesla Cybertruck, highlighting its impressive specs across three distinct versions: a single-motor RWD with 250-mile range, a dual-motor AWD with 300-mile range, and a tri-motor top-tier model boasting a 500-mile range and sub-3-second 0-60 time. While acknowledging the impressive performance and towing capabilities, Llewellyn remains neutral on the polarizing design. The discussion then shifts to the Ford Mustang Mach-E, which Llewellyn finds stylistically disconnected from the classic Mustang, despite its modern SUV form. He notes its availability in various trims like Select, Premium, California Route 1, GT, and GT Performance Edition, with battery options offering around 230 miles (standard) to 275-300 miles (extended range). Llewellyn criticizes the automotive industry's continued push of large, inefficient SUVs, arguing that their popularity negates the environmental benefits of EVs and contributes to rising CO2 emissions. He passionately advocates against the fossil fuel industry's use of cobalt, revealing it's more heavily used in refining petrol than in electric cars or personal electronics, and is ultimately burned and released as toxic exhaust.
