On today's exciting episode of Quick Charge, we try to find the missing hype that usually surrounds Tesla's new product reveals – and why five years of broken product promises mean it might not show up at all this time around.

We've also got a pickup that doesn't need a $16,000 range extender in its bed to go 490 miles on a single charge, GM takes a jab at Ford's affordable EV "skunkworks," and a new solar study from EnergySage. Enjoy!
