Matt Cleevely, the driving force behind Cleevely Motors and Cleevely Electric Vehicles—and an industry personality—joins JC & Paul this week. 

Matt shares how a family business founded in 1962 has transformed into a hub for EV repair, sales, and advocacy, all while staying rooted in the values passed down from his grandfather. He talks openly about:  

  • Building a multi-generational, family-led business in the age of electrification  
  • Overcoming industry resistance and championing EV adoption  
  • The challenges and rewards of running three intertwined businesses  
  • His personal journey with mental health, and how hobbies like golf and strong family support helped him overcome depression  
  • Why kindness, honesty, and community are at the heart of everything he does
