Lucid makes waves with European orders for the Gravity SUV and announces plans for a more affordable $50,000 EV SUV based on its rugged Gravity X concept. Meanwhile, BMW unveils the stunning iX3, built on a clean-sheet EV platform, sporting a panoramic interior screen and next-gen controls. Bodie also reflects on his time constraints, upcoming interviews, and a whirlwind San Diego trip—all while remaining committed to delivering high-quality content to listeners.Support the Show:www.supportkilowatt.comOther Podcasts:Beyond the Post YouTubeBeyond the Post PodcastShuffle Playlist918Digital WebsiteNews Links:VW Admits Defeat: New ID.4 Will Have Physical Controls and 'Completely Different' DesignVolkswagen Has A New Plan For EV Names.
