INSIDEEVS PODCAST EP. 3: TAYCAN REAL WORLD RANGE IMPRESSES, MACH-E DELAY, POLESTAR 2 PRICING

EV Channels Review

The InsideEVs Podcast episode 3 delves into the impressive real-world range of the Porsche Taycan 4S, with multiple tests exceeding its EPA rating, reaching nearly 300 miles. While acknowledging these promising results, the hosts emphasize the need for more rigorous, controlled testing to confirm true range, a methodology they plan to implement. The discussion also touches on the Ford Mustang Mach-E's production delays, which are seen as unsurprising given the current climate, and the Polestar 2's pricing, which is deemed competitive but potentially a tough sell in the US due to brand recognition and higher starting costs compared to rivals like the Tesla Model 3. Additionally, the podcast highlights Ford's electric Mustang Cobra Jet 1400 drag car as a technological showcase, sparking debate on the value of such 'halo projects' versus mainstream EV development.
