As the Irish government considers the introduction of a scrappage scheme aimed at accelerating the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), industry voices and EV advocates are weighing in on its potential impact. With EV searches on Carzone up 16% year-on-year and consumer interest continuing to rise, the momentum for a greener transport future is clear. However, challenges around affordability, charging infrastructure, and vehicle range persist. For more on this, Alan Morrissey was joined by John Casey of Clare EV Owners Club.

Jill opened the show briefly recapping here recent travels. Jill's been on the road training for the next edition of the Rebelle Rally, this time with a new driver/partner and new vehicle. Listen in for details. Tom shared details of a major industry merger, though most consumers won't be affected. Still, it does involve Mercedes-Benz and Toyota. Tom shared news regarding the 2026 Chevrolet Blazer EV. One version goes away; one seriously high-performance variant is added to the lineup. Both hosts shared their takes on the all-new 2025 Nissan Murano midsize 2-row crossover. For the most part the new midsize crossover is an upgrade over the previous edition, though Jill has a specific complaint. In the second segment, Jill and Tom are joined by Patrick George of InsideEVs. Patrick recently spent a couple of weeks in China learning about the country's EV products and market environment. Listen in for some fascinating insights regarding how the Chinese are succeeding at building and selling electric vehicles. In the last segment Jill is subjected to Tom's “Q1 Sales!” quiz.

Electric vehicle use in Minnesota boomed over the past decade due to the popular fleet of Tesla vehicles driving into the market. However, the Q1 auto sales report from earlier this year, showed a drop in sales for Tesla's EVs. The indication that there might be a slowing popularity for the brand had some experts blame the company's CEO Elon Musk and his relationship with American politics. Even Gov. Tim Walz took at jab at Musk and the company's business woes. “The governor has certainly continued, to some degree, his feud with Elon Musk,” said Walker Orenstein, energy, natural resources and sustainability reporter for the Minnesota Star Tribune. “[Walz] jokes about it not being the best idea, because Elon Musk is a very rich man.”Politics could be a driving force in the drop in Tesla sales, but Orenstein explained the EV growing market is another culprit. “Tesla's share of the EV market was declining well before [Q1 auto sales] — I think that it reflects more options that are available to people,” Orenstein said. “At this point in time, the governor doesn't need Tesla and Musk quite to the same degree, and that's because the marketplace for EVs has just grown so much.”New EV companies, and well-established automakers have been electrifying the EV market across the country, but cold weather and a lack of model options are also the reason why Minnesotans haven't fully embraced the technology.

We can thank TECHNOLOGY for bringing us the Unnamed Automotive Podcast this week, but we can also BLAME it for making Sami's life difficult during his week-long test of the 2025 Volvo EX90 EV. With a huge battery, over 500-hp and plenty of driving range, the EX90 should be a slam dunk in the world of three-row EVs, but Sami shares the many frustrations he experienced while driving this vehicle. Most issues revolve around the infotainment system and a minimalist approach to controls, which makes usually easy tasks quite distracting. Then Benjamin shares his thoughts on the all-new, and finally available in the US, 2025 BMW M5 Touring (Wagon.) The big, plug-in hybrid, high-performance wagon shows it can be a bit of everything in one tidy package. Is that special enough? Why is Sami so over it already? The guys talk about their thoughts on this amazing BMW and figure out 'why now?" And finally, the hosts tackle some listener questions and comments about the Hyundai Santa Cruz, and the scary future of used car software. Thanks for listening!

Electric vehicles – EVs – don't emit pollutants into the air. That's a good thing, if you're focused on cutting emissions and curbing climate change. But they're also often more expensive than gas cars, and the charging infrastructure along roads and highways isn't fully built out yet. Considering these challenges, how do you get people to buy EVs?In Vermont, the Scott administration proposed a rule to the Legislature in 2022 to end gas-powered car sales by 2035, which a legislative committee then approved. The rule stated that manufacturers should increase the percentage of EVs for sale in Vermont. State agencies said the strategy led to an uptick in EV ownership.But then, about three weeks ago, Vermont's Governor Phil Scott issued an executive order halting enforcement of this rule for 19 months. He also said his administration "remains committed to achieving emissions reductions, including vehicle emissions."We hear more about what's going on in Vermont from freelance journalist Nathaniel Eisen of Colchester, who recently covered the story for Inside Climate News. Vermont's Secretary of the Agency of Natural Resources, Julie Moore, gives us the state's perspective, and Democratic state Senator Anne Watson explains why she's disappointed in the governor's decision. Plus, Brent Dragon, sales manager for the heavy truck dealership R.R. Charlebois in Milton, tells us about the trucking industry's take on the mandate and the state's decision to put it on hold.Correction: During Tuesday's radio broadcast and in this post we incorrectly identified the rule as a "law" and "regulation" that was first put forth by the Vermont Legislature. In fact, it was a rule proposed by the Scott administration.Broadcast live on Tuesday, June 3, 2025, at noon; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.Have questions, comments or tips?

In this exclusive episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, Jaguar Managing Director Rawdon Glover shares the story behind the brand's controversial 2024 rebrand. Glover gives us the inside track on why the iconic British marque halted UK car sales, pivoted to all-electric luxury, and ignited a storm of debate with a polarising teaser campaign that featured… no cars. From dealing with backlash to unveiling the striking Type 00 concept, this is an insight into the risk that comes with reinvention, the future of one of the UK's most storied automotive brands and the company's conviction that they simply do not want to be loved by everyone.

The Unnamed Automotive Podcast tackles a pair of uncommon vehicles this week. The show starts with Benjamin's review of the 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz XRT model, which emphasizes a more rugged and tough approach to compact trucking. Benjamin explains how it compares to the recently reviewed 2025 Ford Maverick, and whether Hyundai is capable of building a truck that works for North American needs. Then Sami chimes in with his review of the 2025 Nissan Ariya, which offers a lot of the same features and technologies found on other EVs on the market. Our hosts ask what makes the Ariya special in this segment, and struggle to come up with a definitive answer, despite Nissan's past leadership in the EV space. Thanks for listening!

Despite increased gas prices and lower costs associated with buying an electric vehicle, drivers are still hesitant to make the switch. That's due, in part, to charging anxiety: even though most daily trips are short, people still worry, 'what happens when you can't find a plug?' A mandate from New York State that aims to have all new cars sold run on electric by 2035 has also exposed some of the communities' more complex problems: utility limitations; lack of support from the federal government; and the problems presented by modern EV batteries. Our guests break it down: Senator Jeremy Cooney, District 56, and chair of the NYS Transportation Committee Brian Sharp, investigations editor for WXXI News Eric Hittinger, professor of public policy at the Rochester Institute of Technology

What's up, everyone! Today we're sharing an episode with Joseph Vellone, the CEO of ChargeScape — a Joint Venture between Ford, Honda, BMW, and Nissan. -----Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube | Pocket Casts-----As the grid continues to buckle under the pressure of ever-increasing demand, it's more important than ever to find ways to manage the existing load. However, it's not all bad. One of the main demand drivers might be the core solution to these demand problems—namely, EVs, when paired with smart charging software. You see, all these EVs are essentially backup batteries. Currently, not all are equipped with bi-directional charging, but most new vehicles hitting the roads are. So, not only can a smart charging software, managed by utilities, alleviate demand on the grid, it can also pull energy from the vehicles when the time is right (again, when the hardware capabilities are present). -----Support our Work with a Paid Subscription-----This fundamentally shifts our perspective on vehicles. Instead of a cost center, it could earn you money by purchasing cheap energy, or charging on solar for free, and selling back to the grid at peak demand times. This is the type of utopian future we work towards — and the best part, it's becoming reality in front of us. Topics **01:35 Revolutionizing EV Charging**05:21 Joseph Vellone's Journey in Renewable Energy**07:47 The Unique Opportunity at ChargeScape**12:00 Transforming the EV Charging Experience**13:30 Make Money w/ Smart Charging**18:04 The Future of EVs + Renewable Energy**20:03 Building a High-Performance Team**23:10 Managing Startup Intensity Without Burnout**25:58 How to Successfully Sell to Utilities**28:50 The Benefits of Having Automakers as Strategic Investors**31:17 The Role of AI in ChargeScape's Strategy**33:44 Understanding EV Industry Backlash**37:59 Resilience of EV Charging Amid Political PushbackLinks**Joseph Vellone | ChargeScape**Connect with Somil on LinkedIn | Support the showIf you're gonna change the world, you're gonna need a world-class team.

Most of the cabs on the streets of New York back in 1899 were electric, so why did they disappear? And why has it been so hard to bring them back?In this episode, I am diving into the history of electric vehicles to reveal why a cleaner, quieter, and generally better technology got stamped out almost as quickly as it arrived.This is part of our series, “Inventions That Changed the World”, and I think you'll find it very eye-opening.In this episode, I share:The early history of the electric carWhy electric vehicles vanished for almost a centuryThe 3 players that were quietly steering the EV off the roadHow EVs made an attempted return in 1990What stopped the EVs in the 1990sHow the emergence of Tesla influenced the latest EV surgeSome of the myths around EVs that influence people's hatred of themWhat's being done to stop the atrocious slave labour in EV productionKey Quotes“EVs are better, end of story.”“In Aotearoa, 12% of our cars are electric.”“Most of the cabs on the streets of New York back in 1899 were electric.”Find our full podcast via the website here: https://www.nowthatswhaticall.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nowthatswhaticallgreen/You can follow me on socials on the below accounts.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/briannemwest/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@briannemwestLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/briannemwest/For our latest big project, find out more about Incrediballs here: https://incrediballs.com/

This Weeks Unnamed Automotive Podcast begins with a thorough review of the 2025 Ford Maverick, which has been refreshed. Featuring a new drivetrain and a new street truck Lobo trim, the pickup gives Benjamin plenty to talk about, but its new price point seems to be a silver bullet in this whole cheap truck thing. Then Sami reviews the 2025 Macan 4 EV, which boasts tons of range and plentiful performance, leaving our host to ask "what else do you want?" It turns out, a cheaper MSRP, nicer interior and a reason for two charge ports would be the answer to that question. Finally, Benjamin shares some barely coherent thoughts on the 2025 Toyota Crown Signia. Dismissed by Sami as something that is barely more than a Toyota Camry, Benjamin shows up to defend the Signia's honour, while completely ignoring its price and performance. Sometimes vibes is all you need.

About Matt Landman:—First the truth will upset you, but then it will set you free.I never thought I would be an activist but I guess that's life, one door closes another door opens. For me I'd worked so many different jobs and spent so much of my life in a classroom that I just wanted to get grounded and learn about growing food. I worked on a farm and there I opened my eyes for the first time to the FrankenSkies we never knew. From the day I realized something abnormal was occurring in our skies, I was driven to do something about it. Through my devotion and passion, I've realized incredible traction via social media. My goal is very simple, it is unity. Truth is all embracing and our strength comes from this bond we all share.—00:00 Introduction to Matt Landman and Geoengineering Activism01:11 The Beginnings of Activism and Early Achievements01:41 Documentary: Frank and Skies02:46 The Reality of Geoengineering and Media Manipulation04:25 The Hegelian Dialectic and Climate Change05:33 Net Zero and the Misconceptions of Carbon Emissions07:44 The Truth About Smart Cities and Energy Efficiency21:32 The Dangers of Smart Meters and Lithium-Ion Batteries23:18 The Irony of Electric Vehicles and Green Energy27:41 Cognitive Dissonance and the Green Movement29:50 The Push for Geoengineering as a Solution36:28 The Role of Bill Gates in Geoengineering40:15 Historical Context and Weaponization of Weather43:17 Modern Examples of Weather Manipulation46:35 The Mechanics of Weather Engineering50:23 Scientific Method and Weather Control50:40 HAARP and Weather Manipulation52:21 Chemtrails and Toxic Substances57:47 Geoengineering and Public Deception01:10:22 Activism and Public Awareness01:18:03 Q&A SessionSlides for this podcast, and AI summaries of all of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summarieshttps://frankenskies.com/https://frankenskies2.com/Matt's website, www.ActualActivists.comMatt's EMF clothing line www.SperoGear.com=========My Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

Chinese e-mobility technology is poised to transform large swathes of Africa's transportation ecosystem in the coming decade, but in very different ways than in other regions where EVs are the primary focus. Bicylces, scooters, tricyles, tractors, cars, minibuses, and full-sized coaches, all made in China, are becoming increasingly popular in dozens of African countries. This week, Eric & Cobus are thrilled to introduce CGSP's newest podcast The Africa EV Show with Njenga Hakeenah, which highlights the latest trends in this dynamic sector. Njenga, who is also CGSP's Nairobi-based climate editor, reveals which countries are moving fastest to incorporate e-mobility in their transportation mix and what the major obstacles to e-mobility adoption on the continent are.

Rob describes a recent trip he made to China, Japan and the US and discusses what he learned. As the trip started shortly after President Trump declared Liberation Day on 2 April, the trade war and tariffs were a recurring topic of the trip. The postcard discusses the trade war, but it is not just about the trade war. The trade war is in the news today but news cycles get ever shorter. It is important not to be so focused on the news that you miss the bigger picture.As such, the postcard also touches on broader developments in China including AI, Electric Vehicles and the growing prominence of Chinese companies.

Jill and Tom opened the show by talking about Toyota's new-for-2026 electric-vehicle lineup. The changes include revised model names, and smaller and larger companions for the maker's existing—and also updated—bZ compact EV. Tom talked about a recently published article which claims that the Tesla Cybertruck is wearing through tires in as little as 7000 miles. Per the article, replacement tires cost around $400 each. Tom also noted an interesting news piece suggesting that German consumers are not open to purchasing Chinese-brand EVs. Listen in for details. Still in the first segment, Jill shared her impressions of the all-new Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator. Both vehicles have been treated to fresh styling and updated infotainment systems. In the second segment Jill and Tom welcome Dan Passe of Passe Consulting to the program. With a communications resume that includes both Nissan and Nikola, Dan talked about the difference between legacy automakers and start-up companies. In the last segment Jill is subjected to Tom's “25 MPG!” quiz. Tom wrapped up the show with a list of the best-selling vehicles in the premium large-SUV segment. 

In this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, Robert Llewellyn is joined by Steve Beattie, Head of Sales at BYD UK, to unpack the meteoric rise of the world's largest EV maker. From humble beginnings in battery manufacturing to selling over 4 million vehicles globally, BYD is rapidly transforming the electric vehicle landscape—and Europe is next. Steve and Robert discuss how BYD went from mobile phone batteries to EVs, the secrets behind BYD's battery safety tech (hello, Blade Battery!) and the need for EV affordability, charging access, and the challenge of equitable adoption.

Electric vehicles are often seen as one of the answers to climate change. Ditch gas-powered cars and trucks for electric, and the carbon footprint will be smaller, right? Not so fast. As iconic talk show host Larry Elder explains in his new film, “Electric Vehicles — The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly,” there’s a lot more to EVs than people know. He joins Michele to discuss. Michele Tafoya is a four-time Emmy award-winning sportscaster turned political and cultural commentator. Record-setting, four-time Sports Emmy Award winner Michele Tafoya worked her final NBC Sunday Night Football game at Super Bowl LVI on February 13, 2022, her fifth Super Bowl. She retired from sportscasting the following day. In total, she covered 327 games — the most national primetime TV games (regular + postseason) for an NFL sideline reporter.

The Unnamed Automotive Podcast gets their helmets on, beefs up their suspension, and hits the unpaved road this week as our hosts review two rally-inspired cars. The show starts off with Benjamin's review of the Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally, which gets more power, stylish upgrades and extra armor for its battery, all for tackling the great unpaved wilderness. However, weight and grip may have shifted Benjamin's experience with this all-weather EV. Then Sami jumps into an honest-to-goodness, high-performance Toyota, with the GR Corolla. Yes, it's designed by Toyota, developed by Toyota and made by them too, but in this episode, Sami gets to try out the automatic version of this rally-oriented hot hatch. The conversation drifts its way through the typical hot-hatch territory, as the guys talk about some of their favorites in the segment. Thanks for listening!

In this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, Imogen Bhogal sits down with Seb Inglis-Jones, the co-founder and CEO of Maeving, the UK's leading electric motorcycle manufacturer.  Seb shares the origin story of Maeving — from building a team of ex-Triumph and Norton engineers to hand-building retro-styled electric bikes in Coventry. They dive into the beauty of removable batteries, reviving two-wheeled mobility and manufacturing in the UK and, what it takes to convert even the most loyal of petrolheads to electric! Seb also explains how Maeving is expanding internationally — city by city — and why the joy, calm, and mindfulness of electric motorbiking is pulling in a new generation of riders.   This episode is sponsored by Duracell Energy!
