On today's energized episode of Quick Charge, a Tesla executive leaks news of a new Model S and X as protests at retail locations escalate and key staff continue their exodus from the troubled brand. Plus: 0% financing deals on EVs and PHEVs and Volvo brings off-grid power to bauma.

We've also got a look at the crowded EV sedan market the updated Tesla Model S (if it happens) will enter, talk about the Chinese answer to Rolls-Royce and Bentley from Huawei, and the latest off-grid BESS substation concept from Volvo Penta. Enjoy!
