In Episode 200 Gary lets Imogen Bhogal from the Fully Charged Show take the reins as she facilitates a discussion on women in EV.
We hear from Sara Sloman, Linda Grave, George Thurman and Claire Miller about their thoughts on cars designed by men, selling and marketing to women, payment issues and why that's a a problem when you're in a dark car park by yourself, as well as why the Tesla whoopee cushion is a gift when working with small children.
