Show Notes

On today's episode of Quick Charge, it's back to your regularly scheduled news programming with reports that Tesla employees are getting fired for asking Elon to step down as the new Model Y flops hard in the global marketplace. We've also got a new electrified Volvo XC70 and Micah has a close call with the law!

We've also got a deep dive into Tesla sales in China through April, and how they compare to 2024 and 2023, along with a reminder to the Elon faithful that Faraday Future is, somehow, still a thing, and to look both ways before pulling out into a bike lane.
