TWC Podcast #187: State of the EV Union
By Phil Royle — Sept. 5, 2024
We’re usually knee deep in the latest news and exclusive interviews, so this week we step back to evaluate where the EV industry sits today. From charging infrastructure to charging speed and EV prices, we look at where the industry is compared to where it was not so long ago. We also take stroll down a “what if” alternate reality, and wrap up with a look at the current state of the company that has nearly single-handedly driven the EV revolution: Tesla.
