Quick Charge

Nissan GT-R goes electric, Tesla goes to court, and Mullen goes mainstream


Listen Later

On today’s episode of Quick Charge, we ponder the future of Nissan's all-wheel drive hypercar, Tesla argues against Louisiana's car dealers, and perpetual EV startup Mullen gets an order big enough to put it on the map for real.

We've also got a new Chinese rival that's gunning for the Tesla Model Y's sales crown, a massive, 8.5 million square foot community solar project courtesy of the NSA, and a message from our friends at Volvo CE. Enjoy!
