New Chevy Bolt undercuts “affordable” Tesla by $10K, wins on features


Listen Later

On today's extreme episode of Quick Charge, we've got the most affordable new EV in America packing 255 miles of range, sub-30 minute charging, V2H support, and more – all that for a price about $10,000 LESS than that new "affordable" Tesla.

We've also got specs for the all-new, all-electric Ferrari Elettrica and a world's first, hydrogen-powered autonomous farm tractor from Kubota.

Today’s episode is brought to you by Climate XChange, a nonpartisan nonprofit working to help states pass effective, equitable climate policies. The nonprofit just kicked off its 10th annual EV raffle, where participants have multiple opportunities to win their dream model. Visit CarbonRaffle.org/Electrek to learn more.
