Kilowatt: A Podcast about Electric Vehicles

About

In this episode, we dive into the latest developments in electric and autonomous vehicle technology. Uber selects the first city for its Lucid Gravity robotaxi rollout, signaling a major step forward in driverless ride-hailing. Meanwhile, Tesla's Full Self-Driving v14 continues to underwhelm with reports of erratic behavior including braking and hallucinations. Kia makes headlines with its electric van setting a Guinness World Record for range. We also look at Lucid’s ambitions to deliver a ‘mind-off’ autonomous driving experience with Nvidia’s tech. And for a deeper understanding of EV range testing, a YouTube breakdown of WLTP and EPA procedures is featured. Buckle up for a packed episode full of EV insights.
