The full trio, Robert Llewellyn, Imogen Bhogal and Jack Scarlet reunite for a gloriously chaotic catch-up and debrief! First up: a proper Welsh adventure in three of the UK's most affordable EVs; the BYD Dolphin, Citroën ë-C3 and Leapmotor T03. The cars? Impressively modern. The rural charging infrastructure? Occasionally… nostalgic. They delve into password dramas, charger roulette, and what budget EV life really looks like in 2026. They also chat about Jack's Kia world exclusive and sub 20 degrees conditions in Norway while testing the EV2. Meanwhile, Robert reflects on how Volvo Cars now talks about EVs as simply "cars", the huge cultural shift he's been waiting for! Plus: solar megaprojects in Australia, gravity storage from Green Gravity, birthday cake… and Jack's big Japan sabbatical announcement...! 00:00:11 Intro: The 97th Take 00:01:21 Imogen's Paris Trip & Renault Brand CEO Interview 00:03:07 The Future of Small EVs and the Renault Espace 00:07:38 Robert's Australia Trip: Solar Farms and Gravity Storage 00:10:12 The Wales Road Trip: Small EVs vs. Rural Infrastructure 00:12:12 The "Charging Nightmare" and Offensive Passwords 00:16:47 World Exclusive: Testing the Kia EV2 in Norway 00:19:50 Surviving -20°C: Tales from the Norwegian Range Test 00:22:15 Jack's Big Sabbatical: Heading to Japan 00:23:12 Launch FOMO: Ioniq 6, Polestar 5, and More 00:27:58 Volvo's "Early Adopters" Advert and Normalising EVs 00:30:43 Five Years of Change: From Niche to "Just a Car" 00:31:51 Renault's Hybrid Strategy vs. Pure Electric 00:34:04 Birthday Reflections 00:35:56 Robert's Wisdom: Am I the A**hole? 00:38:35 Final Wrap-Up and Live Events Info Why not come and join us at our next Everything Electric expo: www.everythingelectric.show Check out our sister channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/EverythingElectricShow
