Australia's electric car revolution, Mercedes' secret treasure trove and the Lamborghini Urus

Scott says Dan’s sickness was from driving a Ford Mustang EcoBoost and liking it, but either way he is back to chat to the regular boys about all the hot topics while he was feeling sorry for himself in bed.

Kicking off the chat this week, we discuss Labor’s plan to boost electric vehicle sales to a half of all new cars by 2030 (1:45) and it’s even more ambitious strategy to resurrect Australian car manufacturing (10:45). Flight of fancy, realistic goal or is there simply an election looming?

Then Scott and Dan gaze silently at Andy as he takes us through Mercedes’ top secret holy halls where the German car maker houses all of its most valuable, rare and desirable vehicles throughout the company’s storied history (13:50).

And rounding out the conversation, Dan reviews his time in the most significant vehicle in Lamborghini’s history – the Urus. Can an SUV ever truly carry the Raging Bull badge on its nose and is there anything that makes its first high-rider since the LM002 a worth supercar (23:50)?
