Five years ago, I was paying $65 a month for my subscriptions.
01:49
Today, those same subscriptions cost $111, and I don't even use half of them anymore.
01:54
That's why now I use RocketMoney to manage my subscriptions for me.

02:02

02:16
And the best part is, RocketMoney even reaches out
02:19
and tries to get you refunded for some of the money you lost.

This is Bayard Winthrop, founder of American Giant.
04:33
I started this company because I was fed up with cheap clothes that didn't last
04:37
and companies that shipped manufacturing overseas.
04:41
We believed we could still make incredible clothing right here in the U.S.
04:45
with American cotton and American workers earning real wages.
04:49
That's what we stand for.
04:51
Making clothes that actually last.

so you don't miss a thing.
05:09
We'll start with news of Skoda teasing the Epic EPI Q.
05:14
This is going to be the same price as their small combustion car, the Kamek.
05:18
This is going to be up against like the Citroen EC3 and the Renault 4 and 5.
05:23
So well under 25,000 euros or pounds using the Volkswagen MEB Plus platform.
05:30
You'll find that underneath other things like the forthcoming VW ID Polo.
05:35
The Cupra Reval as well.
05:37
Power up to 155 kilowatts range up to 430 kilometers on this and two battery sizes.
05:44
The bigger battery 55 kilowatt hours.
05:48
So that's going to come sometime in the first half of this year from Skoda.
05:51
We're just getting more details on that.
05:53
Rivian giving us more details about their dedicated Apple Watch app.
05:57
And this is good news for every Rivian owner.
05:59
Right back to the earliest vehicles.
06:01
New software update confirming the feature.
06:03
Not quite available yet, but we've already got Apple Watch digital keys through the wallet.
06:09
The new companion app on your Apple Watch means that you can now use it as a key.
06:14
If the app is in the foreground, you can control things like the windows and start driving.
06:20
Also unlock the vehicle.
06:21
This is one of the ways that EVs are just so cool.
06:24
Yeah, they're pretty high tech, but they make convenient features and quality of
06:29
life improvements as well.
06:31
But don't tell that to anybody who's a never bever hanging on to their petrol or diesel.
06:35
Don't tell them that EVs are just better in every way.
06:37
BYD overtakes Ford in global sales rankings.
06:41
They've actually flipped flop places.
06:44
BYD has now taken Ford's place, its sixth place in the world's list of automakers.
06:50
Ford dropping to seventh place, by the way.
06:53
BYD exporting over a million vehicles overseas from China last year,
06:58
driving the growth BYD targeting a double, 100% growth if you like, in Germany.
07:05
They sold 23,000 units last year.
07:07
They want to sell 50,000 units in Germany this year.
07:11
They're expanding their dealership network to 350 locations by the end of the year.
07:17
They were at 26 locations last year, so BYD making big moves into Germany.
07:21
An aggressive price cuts because of the 6,000 euros you get off EVs there.
07:26
BYD also planning on seven or eight Australian launches.
07:29
That does include major revisions.
07:33
Things like the new Shark 6 Ute with a bigger engine,
07:37
three and a half thousand kilograms towing over a tonne payload.
07:40
Complete feature parity with its combustion pickup truck Ute competitors.
07:46
But also new cars coming from BYD to Australia as well.
07:49
Right hand drive market.
07:50
I'm really hopeful that we see some more of those here as well.
07:53
Genesis enters Italy.
07:56
Already got Genesis in Germany, UK and Switzerland.

Next up, France, Spain and the Netherlands for Genesis.

South Australian company VE Motion adding batteries and drive axles to semi-truck trailers.
08:15
So if an operator isn't ready to get rid of their diesel tractor unit yet,
08:21
they can buy the trailer with batteries that effectively push the thing along.
08:25
It saves 50% of the diesel that you use and that's a good emissions reduction.
08:28
Surely we want pure Bev trucks, yes.
08:32
But Australia is a big country and some operators might not be ready to do those long distances
08:37
and completely give up combustion yet.
08:39
That's a really interesting solution.
08:42
General Motors are pinning their future on LMR batteries.
08:46
They say they're targeting 2028 for its first LMR chemistry powered vehicles.
08:52
And finally, good news for Italy.

09:09
I love that hardware. 400 kilowatts of power.
09:17

09:20
until I downloaded Rocket Money.
09:22
I thought I had my finances under control until the app laid out all my spending
09:26
and categorized it for me.
