Welcome to another jam-packed episode of the Everything EV podcast, hosted by Matt Allan, George East and Richard in Las Vegas.

This week’s episode blends driving tales, gaming throwbacks, outrageous concept cars, and some serious EV politics. Here’s what’s coming up:

In the garage (and on the console):

George dives into classic WRC cars on the PS5, while Matt says a heartfelt goodbye to the Genesis GV70 – a long-termer he actually didn’t want to give back.

 INSsteroid madness:

Hyundai’s bonkers new hot hatch concept – part rally car, part video game fantasy – gets the full breakdown, complete with 21-inch wheels, hydraulic handbrakes, and Pac-Man ghosts.

 EVs in America:

Richard catches up with Republican political strategist Mike Murphy, founder of the American EV Jobs Alliance, to talk about fighting partisan politics, saving US EV jobs, and why Elon Musk’s Tesla brand might be in crisis.

The hot hatch revival:

From Peugeot’s confirmed e-208 GTI to Alpine, Abarth and the rise of small, fun EVs – are we entering a new golden age?

Manual gearboxes for EVs?

Ford’s patented “fake” H-gate gearbox, Toyota’s clutch-based systems and how electric cars are getting their fun factor back.

EV comeback for Nissan:

With a new Micra, Leaf and Juke on the way – all electric and made in Sunderland – could Nissan be back in the game?
