Show Notes
GM and OnStar will launch a pilot program for smart grid technology for EVs later this year. Nissan announced it's increasing the price of the LEAF because it now comes standard with a battery warmer, heated steering wheel, and heated seats. Sales of convertibles in the U.S. dropped after the economy crashed a few years ago. All that and more, plus John answers questions about Audi and the UAW in the "You Said It!" segment.
