About this episode

The episode discusses BMW's perspective on the internal combustion ban and their commitment to an all-electric future.

Let's be honest, most legacy manufacturers are struggling with the switch to electric, leaving an opening for hordes of new brands, and yet BMW seems to be on-board with an all-electric future. But what are BMW's views on the internal combustion *ban*; is it a massive mistake? Our expert host, Imogen Bhogal (once with OEMs Jaguar Land Rover & ARRIVAL), talks candidly to Glenn Schmidt, BMW's Vice President Global Sustainability, about significant strides made by the automotive giants.
