The Driven Podcast: Robert Llewellyn on the EV boom, China and what’s next for Everything Electric

Published by

Fully Charged founder and Everything Electric’s Robert Llewellyn joins The Driven Podcast to talk about the rapidly changing global EV market, the rise of Chinese carmakers, why Australia is becoming an important market for new electric models, and how dramatically the charging experience has improved across Europe.

We also talk small and affordable EVs, the Renault 5, MG4 and Honda Super-One, the arrival of electric Ferraris, Jaguars and Bentleys, and why the next big leap in EV technology could come from batteries.

Plus, Robert discusses what’s next for Everything Electric following Dan Caesar’s decision to step back, why the upcoming Sydney show is set to be its biggest yet, and – inevitably – we find time for *Red Dwarf*, Kryten, robots and some particularly irritating driver-assistance systems.
