Elon wants to rebuild exploded Cybertruck, Canadian cons, other bizarre EV news


Listen Later

On today's challenging episode of Quick Charge, Elon seems serious about rebuilding the Cybertruck that exploded outside the Trump hotel in Las Vegas. Meanwhile, there are questions about Tesla's record-setting weekend in Canada, and lots, lots more.

In other news, we've got a hot tub you can sail around a lake, a 140-ton electric hoverboard from Liebherr, a $1,000 electric pickup from China, questions about the effectiveness of EV rebates in general, and a 0% interest deal on an all-new electric Dodge Charger Daytona.
