THE NEXT BILLION CARS - DRIVING ME BACKWARDS Part Two: China and Everyone Else
About this episode
The episode discusses the rapid advancements in electric vehicles in China compared to the US and Europe, along with predictions for the automotive industry by 2026.
While the US put its car in reverse (at speed!) and European automakers chased their own tails about whether or not to abandon ICEs, the Chinese put the pedal to the metal in their high-tourque EVs, leaving everyone one else in the dust. A once-in-a-lifetime platform transition - without any international competitors! Co-host Sally Dominguez, Special Correspondent Drew Smith and host Mark Pesce discuss a world that already looks radically different from the beginning of the year, then make some predictions for 2026.
