KILOWATT HALF HOUR EP 48: DACIA'S £16K NEMESIS AND NEWSPAPER NONSENSE

EV Channels Review

This episode of Kilowatt Half Hour delves into the ongoing debate surrounding EV running costs, highlighting how misleading newspaper headlines can distort the public's perception. The hosts discuss the new Leapmotor T03, praising its exceptional efficiency (achieving 8 miles per kWh) and competitive pricing, positioning it as a strong contender against established models like the Dacia Spring. They also offer their thoughts on the Audi Q6 e-tron, finding it a competent but perhaps uninspiring large electric SUV, noting its efficiency was lower than expected. The podcast touches on listener questions regarding new vs. used EV purchases, with a strong recommendation for a nearly new Mini Cooper Electric over smaller, less established models. The discussion also covers warranty durations and the frustration of embargoes on new car releases.
