Episode Description (Kilowatt 684)
In this episode, Bodie shares a quick community update and an ad swap with the Car Stuff Podcast and The Final Lap Weekly, then jumps into a packed round-up of EV and clean-tech headlines. The Tesla segment includes a customer service story, Cybertruck pricing news, global expansion updates, and fresh Full Self-Driving chatter (including international approvals and new driver-behavior features). From there, Bodie covers broader industry movement with NIO’s momentum and partnerships, plus an Aptera progress check-in as the solar EV startup pushes toward production. The battery conversation centers on Donut Lab’s latest solid-state testing and what the results might (and might not) mean for real-world EV performance.
