Autocar's electric car podcast: Making an electric driver's car | Autocar

In the second episode of our EV podcasts, Matt Prior and James Disdale sit down with vehicle dynamics guru, David Pook, to discover whether you can make a true driver's EV.

Everything from mass to charging infrastructure plays a part, as David leads our duo through the challenges of delivering such a machine, but also the positives that electrification can bring.

matty_prior JamesDisdale PookyD81 Absolutely LOVED this podcast 👍 I'd add to the discussion is that an EV, CAN be as light (or lighter) than a petrol car - it all depends on the expected range. And for a 'Fun Car' 100-150 miles is fine (or say 75 on track). This was the brief for LotusElon (20kg lighter !).
