Episode 100 - The EV Revolution Show

In celebration of my 100th Episode, I invited some dear friends from “across the Pond”! Join me with fellow YouTubers and EV enthusiasts Dr. Euan McTurk (Plug Life Television) and James Coates (James and Kate) as we discuss some top stories including Telsa’s Q2 performance, Nissan’s Ariya Reveal, BMW I4 and how those South Koreans are making such darn good EVs!

I hope you will enjoy this episode packed with knowledge from a couple of really smart guys!

This episode was recorded via Zoom. For some reason, my voice is sounding off and I could not fix it in post.

[rogerwilliams]

Congratulations on the 100th Episode, Kenneth. Great chat and some good info and views!

[MonsieurLabbe]

Yes, congratulations on episode 100. We love your show.

[costakis]

Great show guys!!! Greetings from Greece, due to lack of infrastructure and modest government insentives I just ordered a 2020 Corolla hybrid, really not viable for Bev in Greece, more like science fiction, never the less Tesla just officially launch new vehicle sales in Athens!!! Hopefully they can drag us to the new era!!! Thanks again for the show!!!

[maesygwartha]

Congratulations on the 100th episode Ken, now the sky is the limit. Keep up the good work.

[Fochestr]

Congrats for your 100th show. To a 100 more!

[fynfynsidian]

Excellent show, congrats on show 100. Loads of information, on flash needed, just deep information of where we are, what is coming and looking forward to the future

[JohnRoss]

Congratulations on 100🎉Great knowledgable guests and show format. The Europeans have alot more choice in BEV than here in Canada.(which is still better than most US states) but their governments had also promoted diesel for many years to save fuel.⛽ As you mentioned the supply of 2019 Kona and Niro EV was pretty low once BC and Quebec got their allocations. Canada got the new 2020 Soul EV but the US did not!
I got a Niro EV because of the range and technology and realized because of my 'senior' driving habits I don't need to charge away from home. I'm still a little stressed at the thought of counting on a fast charger on a vacation drive to eastern Ontario or up to Sudbury or Manitoulin. Hope to catch on your patreon zoom call. Thank you.

Chuffed putting Plug Life Television (despite loathing tv as concept) on my SUB list👌

[jamespaul]

Many thanks to you and your wonderful guests for this great show Ken, and congratulations on the big 100! I can tell by your voice you were all choked up! 😉 I'm wondering what plans Nissan has for the LEAF, and what other new models they are planning. A variant of the Zoe would be great to see, as small and efficient electric hatches are rare in North America. I heard the Zoe actually beat Model 3 sales in Europe for June by a large margin, there is definitely interest in a small, capable and more affordable hatchback, especially with the larger battery on the new version.

Congratulations on 100 show 👏 and great 👍 show today 🙂

[mtumasz]

Excellent conversation! Great point about Polstar getting the UI right, U only forgot Geely does it with Volvo too

[johncarson]

Great100th Ken. Always love listening to your show. When you talk about EV adoption in Canada it’s obvious that Quebec is doing it right followed by B.C. Want to buy a Nero EV they are available in Quebec because Kia sends the cars where they can be sold. Not only is the Quebec Prov.. Govt.
supporting the sale of EV’s they also support the sale of level 2 chargers for homeowners. In Ont. we were doing this too, until the last govt change. What can we do to to get govt subsidies back and promote this growing industry. I’m tired of waiting for a reply to a letter written to my MPP.several months ago. Sent it twice now, no response. We need voices like yours to become more demanding, certainly can’t hurt.

[johnmoniz]

Great milestone Kenneth. Great show also.

[williammillard]

The deep, slow accent is most some people do actually sound like that .... interesting that both Euan and James’ cadences were unaffected and both sounded much closer to their usual selves! A very interesting show none the less! Thank you Ken as always

[afterburner]

What a great show! Great guests! Raising my glass to the next 100 episodes. As for Kenneth voice, something odd happened during the editing or maybe the mic settings that we're off during the recording, but the speed of the flow of speech is normal. That's odd!

[ZappaTime]

Great informative show, congrats on your 100th and keep 'em coming!

[bellshooter]

Great show as always, good to see Euan and James on, I am a little surprised that nobody mentioned the great influence China is having on the EV supply. With the MG ZS EV being a real alternative SUV at a decent price (James&Kate have one), and XPeng producing a real Tesla M3 alternative.

Krn, Congrats on 100th show - your guests are some of my favourites. Well done, Eamon
