Episode Synopsis
The search for a budget EV for a friend takes The Watt Car Podcast hosts on a journey that leads them to the Hyundai Kona Electric. From there, it’s towing talk with a Rivian R1T. That leads to (yet another) conversation about powered trailers, followed by a report concerning a coast-to-coast trip in a Porsche Taycan. We also discuss EV driving efficiencies, quality issues striking Tesla, Koenigsegg unveiling a pancake EV motor, and Toyota heading to the moon!Subscribe the the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, Audible, Spotify, Stitcher, PocketCasts, iHeartRadio, and more – or use your favorite podcast application.SHOW NOTESTFL tows with Rivian R1T: https://youtu.be/Zce-wC__kkU Powered trailer possibilities: https://www.thewattcar.com/home/the-possibilities-with-powered-trailers Porsche Taycan drives from NYC to LA and only spends 2.5 hours charging: https://www.thewattcar.com/home/porsche-taycan-annihilates-coast-to-coast-charging-record One-pedal driving efficiency: https://www.thewattcar.com/home/is-one-pedal-driving-the-most-efficient-for-evs Tom Moloughney asks Ford about its 320A main service requirement: https://youtu.be/yE1nqPvrIWA Model S performs 3rd worst of all cars in Germany's TUV inspection: https://www.thedrive.com/news/44068/over-10-percent-of-tesla-model-s-evs-fail-germanys-strict-inspection-after-3-years Tesla recalls 54K cars with FSD: https://www.thedetroitbureau.com/2022/02/tesla-recalls-nearly-54k-cars-with-full-self-driving-technology/ Koenigsegg unveils a tiny electric motor: https://www.roadandtrack.com/news/a38940998/koenigsegg-quark-electric-motor Toyota unveils new EV…for the moon: https://apnews.com/43addff6ee72bc7cf3b2bfcf9f3ab570 Hosts: Phil Royle and Edward A.
