About this episode

In this bonus episode, the hosts discuss Honda's cancellation of new US EVs and the performance of the Corvette ZR1X.

( https://www.alltfl.com/ ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our content, from news to videos and our podcasts! In this breaking news bonus episode of TFL Car Chat, we’re joined by MotoMan from @MMTVCars to discuss Honda’s massive strategy shift. The automaker has officially pulled the plug on its highly anticipated 0 Series electric sedan and SUV, citing a cooling U.S. market and shifting federal policies. We break down what this $15 billion retreat means for the industry and how it reflects a broader return to affordable gas and hybrid vehicles as EV adoption hits a major speed bump. The conversation then shifts to high-octane performance, headlined by the mind-blowing Corvette ZR1X. With 1,250 hp and a 0–60 mph time of just 1.68 seconds, it’s officially entered hypercar territory. We also dive into the Lamborghini Temerario’s 10,000-rpm V8 hybrid, the raw analog thrill of the Nilu 27, and the record-shattering Yangwang U9 Xtreme, which recently clocked an absurd 308 mph. Whether it's the track-ready BMW M2 CS or rear-wheel-drive ZR1 purism, this episode covers the absolute limits of modern automotive engineering.
