Welcome back to the Everything EV Podcast from EV Powered, hosted by Matt Allan, George East, and Richard Alvin.

This week, we’re packed with reviews, insights, and some eyebrow-raising news from the electric vehicle world.


First drives & reviews:


  • Matt gets behind the wheel of the updated Toyota BZ4X and the all-new Urban Cruiser EV – are the upgrades enough?

  • George tests the Skoda Enyaq L&K and VRS, revealing how it stacks up against the Abarth 600e.

  • We give our verdicts on the Alpine A290 hot hatch and the city-sized BYD Dolphin Surf.

  • George also spends 10 days with the Tesla Model 3 Long Range – and ends up unexpectedly impressed.


In the news:

  • XPeng G6 gets 450kW ultra-rapid charging – could this beat the Tesla Model Y at its own game?
  • Rachel Reeves’ first budget hints at support for EVs, but where’s the detail?
  • Polestar’s frictionless fleet ordering stuns our hosts – how we bought a car in under 5 minutes.
  • Xiaomi electric SU7 Ultra beats Porsche and Rimac lap times at the Nürburgring.
  • And is Decora really America’s answer to Rolls-Royce?

  • Exclusive interview:

    Endurance racing legend Romain Dumas joins us ahead of the 2024 Pikes Peak Hill Climb to talk EV racing, his electric Ford supertruck, and what makes Pike’s Peak the perfect EV challenge.
