Show Notes

Host Tom Appel and co-hosts Jill Ciminillo and Damon Bell kick off the show by discussing the recent incident in which Tesla remotely and retroactively removed Autopilot features from a used Model S that was originally equipped with those features--after it sold the vehicle to a used-car dealer, who in turn sold it to a new buyer who discovered the features were missing. Next, we talk about our test-drive experiences with the Audi Q8 crossover SUV. Richard Steinberg, Senior Director of Green Cities, Marketing and Communications for Electrify America, calls in to discuss Electrify America's expanding network of EV charging stations. Tom has another fake-trim-level quiz for Damon and Jill, and Damon runs down the latest articles on the Consumer Guide Daily Drive blog--including additional coverage of the 2020 Chicago Auto Show. The crew wraps things up by discussing how feasible it would be for each of us to own a pure-electric vehicle in light of our respective lifestyles and residences.
