In this episode, host Kristin Hayes talks with Nadia Gkritza, an associate professor at Purdue University. Gkritza is leading a team that's independently evaluating a new product developed by Holcim, a global building materials and concrete company, and Magment, a German startup that is developing wireless charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. The team envisions a world where electric vehicles can recharge by simply driving over magnetized concrete, eliminating the need for separate charging stations and potentially reducing the need for larger batteries to combat range anxiety. Gkritza discusses the development, implementation, and benefits of the magnetized concrete technology; the next steps for the project; the collaboration involved; and the importance of funding electric vehicle charging infrastructure. “Could Roads Recharge Electric Cars?

Saturday Special – listen this weekend for Ian Johnston from Osprey Charging talking about the future of fueling up, and the innovative load-sharing solutions he's bringing to the UK. VW EV PRODUCTION IN ZWICKAU NEAR CAPACITY A graph published by VW shows the production output of their Zwickau plant has been rising since the start of 2021. The MEB-based cars are all electric such as the ID.3. But a total of 6 models from various VW brands will be made there, such as the ID.5 which hasn't stated production yet. The production capacity is 330,000 EVs per year from this one facility, about 20% of VW's 1.5million EVs they are on track to make every year by 2025. Now we see the daily run rate hitting 1,200. When it gets to 1,500 that's capacity for a 5 day week with some weeks for shutdown every year. So the chip shortage hasn't affected the MEB cars out of Zwickau. It will definitely be affecting VW ICE cars tho so that suggests they are willing to sacrifice ICE to make EVs, to hit CO2 targets in order to avoid fines, and also we know the MEB-based cars are profitable too. HERBERT DIESS: "THE MAIN BENCHMARK IS TESLA" Herbert Diess appeared on a German podcast yesterday morning called The Pioneer Morning Briefing. For my German listeners, this is what he had to say about the speed Tesla works at, and yes I'll try to translate after this clip. Something like: "The true benchmark is really Tesla, the speed yes, with the same suppliers Tesla manages to do product development with the same suppliers in half the time which is much more aggressive. They can of course take a lot more risk than we can." But what about Cybertruck, long overdue Semi Truck, the Roadaster 2? It doesn't feel VW wants to be more like Tesla because that kind of -ship-it-now-and-fix-it-later style is not the German way, but there's definitely capital to be gained by saying 'hey look at what these guys are doing, we need to change'. It helps his political battle to push through reform at VW.

It's important to remember that each road-legal car has its own VIN, which is a string of 17 characters containing the vehicle's unique identifier. This advancement is a critical one in the long process of bringing the much-anticipated Air EV to market. " reports Finbold.com: "Lucid will open the doors of its Advanced Manufacturing Plant (AMP-1) in Casa Grande to the media, financial community, policymakers, and a select group of customers. The series of events for the week of September 27th, 2021, will see a small group of guests have the opportunity to observe manufacturing methods for Lucid Air and learn more about Lucid's revolutionary EV technology from Lucid's top engineers." Along with the 520 miles of EPA range, Lucid appear to be ticking all the boxes to be close to those first deliveries.

There's a 64.4kWh battery pack option in the truly lightweight option or you can go up to 99.6kWh for the dual-motor, maximum horsepower edition. There's also a configuration for a four-seater car, where the battery is packed into the base of the chassis as it is in skateboard-style platforms." evo magazine adds: "Both layouts have their inherent pros and cons thanks to where the mass sits within the chassis, but whereas you might think models fitted with a stacked battery pack might be at a disadvantage thanks to a higher centre of gravity, many engineers continue to struggle with developing ride and handling packages that deal with the physics associated with a driver being sat directly above, not in the midst of so much weight.

The Ford Mustang Mach-E is only rated a Top Safety Pick (no +) due to the Select and California Route 1 trims' headlights being rated "Marginal.""

Audi has only shared range estimates for the 50 models so far, which sits at 241 miles according to the EPA. We anticipate the 40 model will achieve a slightly higher range number, as the ID.4's AWD configuration takes a slight range hit compared with its RWD counterpart."

Headed to US dealerships in fall 2021, the new EQS will start from $102,310 (plus destination), Mercedes confirmed today." according to Slashgear: " Eligible buyers may be able to get the $7,500 federal tax incentive for EVs, however, and any state and local incentives and rebates they could qualify for. The 2022 EQS 580 4MATIC Sedan, meanwhile, will start at $119,110 (plus destination). That adds a second electric motor for all-wheel drive. There'll be three trims on offer, starting with Premium, then rising to Exclusive, and then finally Pinnacle. All three will be offered on both the EQS 450+ and EQS 580 4MATIC versions of the car."

Renault Group says it is investing more than €550 million in the production facilities there and in improved workplace ergonomics." says electrive.com: "The first step in this transformation has now been the conversion of an assembly line that can now produce numerous models from various vehicle classes, including the Mégane E-Tech Electric. A central component of the site's electromobility strategy is the on-site battery production and assembly that was officially announced in the summer. This is based on a partnership between the Renault Group and Envision AESC. Renault officially speaks of a planned “Gigafactory” with a capacity of 9 GWh by 2024 and 43 GWh by 2030 (of which Renault intends to purchase 24 GWh)."

Valencia? Never heard of it mate. Formula E put its recent blip firmly in the past and responded by delivering an absolute barn burner of a race around the streets of Monaco!
The Valencia E-Prix should have been a fantastic opportunity to showcase Formula E's progress to the world, but instead, it turned into a frustrating (and quite frankly embarrassing) low point for the championship. You're probably wondering what the hell happened, and in predictable Inside Electric fashion, the team set the record straight on what exactly went wrong and why, and how it could (and should) have been avoided.

There's been strong discussion on both sides of the fence, and this could be some of the most nuanced discussion on the topic. Hope you enjoy!
Bad news! Dre isn't here! Good news! Hazel Southwell of eracing.net joins RJ and King for a review of a manic Austrian GP! Both Mercedes suffer mechanical issues for the first time since their return, Daniel Ricciardo's gearbox fails on his 29th Birthday, and Max Verstappen holds off a hard charging Kimi Raikkonen to win?!

We're back with the second part of another double taping! In this episode, we catch up with the IndyCar GP of Long Beach as Alex Rossi put on a dominant display to take the win over Will Power.

We also keep an eye on Bird, Mitch Evans stunning drive, and we managed to collar Hazel Southwell in an airport again... only this time, the airport fought back! We also discuss IndyCar's new TV deal with ABC and the new Women in Karting programme from the FIA! Stay tuned for Episode 129 later this week on the Australian Grand Prix!
And in the second of two episodes for the week, Hazel Southwell joins RJ O'Connell, Andre Harrison and Ryan King for a look at Formula E's Mexico City race as Daniel Abt got to celebrate his first win!

In this 5-person booth, Andre Harrison, Ryan King, RJ O'Connell, Zoe Hamilton and special extra guest Hazel Southwell sit down for a lengthy 80 minute special talk about Formula 1's decision to remove "Grid Girls" from their events, and their subsequent replacement to have "Grid Kids" instead. It's hearty, we break down the reasoning behind it, as well as some of the myths behind the reasons for its removal! Enjoy it, another bonus episode comes down on Monday!
