Quick Charge

Electric Bronco, 6 passenger Model Y, and Waymo’s is bigger than Elon’s


Listen Later

We've got huge news in the 4X4 Ford world with the launch of the first-ever all electric Ford Bronco. Plus, we've got a new long-wheelbase Model Y from Tesla and a full-scale d*ck-measuring contest in the world of full self driving. All this and more on today's episode of Quick Charge!

We've also got a $300 million investment from Uber into Tesla Robotaxi rivals Lucid and Nuro and a suitably rapid successor to Lancia's legendary HF nameplate – that could be an ideal new-age Neon, if Stellantis grows the stones to bring it Stateside.
