TWC Podcast #61: Sports Car Fondness Runs Deep With You
By Phil Royle – April 7, 2022
Is the Lotus Eletre electric SUV the end for Lotus? Is VinFast going to be the next big non-American American automotive manufacturer? What does GM’s and Honda’s new deal mean for the Sony car? Is the Chevy Bolt’s return to production significant? We answer all of these questions, as well as discuss Hertz ordering Polestars, Tesla testing a Lucid, battery warrantees, and space cars, all on this week’s The Watt Car Podcast.
