BONUS: The Spec Sheet - Kia EV2 Is The Little Box With Big Ambition

In the sprawling Las Vegas campus of CES last week, electric cars were shown off as spaceships and rolling tech showcases. Meanwhile in the temperate climate of Northern Europe, at the Brussels Motor Show, the star of the show came back down to earth with a little box from Kia.Launched at the 2026 Brussels Motor Show, the EV2 is a small, upright SUV-shaped EV designed squarely for Europe. It is built in Slovakia, sized for tight streets, and priced to slip under the EV3 as Kia’s cheapest dedicated EV in the region.Welcome back to another bonus edition of the show, and our mini-series called The Spec Sheet which runs the numbers on new car launches. Patreon supporters get the podcasts a week exclusively, but if you’re happy to wait, everything ends up in the free podcast feed with a few ads. You’re welcome to check out Patreon to support my work.

BONUS: BYD vs Volkswagen: The Juggernauts Collide In Europe

In the agricultural flatlands of southern Hungary, the soil tells a story. For generations, these fields produced paprika and wheat. Today, excavators carve the foundations of an industrial revolution.Trenches now stretch across the landscape—not for irrigation, but for the utility infrastructure of a battery plant that will consume as much water as a town of 50,000 people. The land, once sold for a pittance, has been revalued at seventeen times its purchase price to accommodate the Chinese guest.Eight hundred kilometres northwest, in the exhausted industrial heart of Wolfsburg, Germany, a different excavation proceeds. Production workers at Volkswagen face the incomprehensible: the company announced the permanent shutdown of its Dresden plant, as the final car rolled off the production lines in December, marking the first factory closure in its 88-year history. The crown jewel of German manufacturing shutters domestic factories.These twin excavations—one rising near Budapest, the other crumbling in Wolfsburg—reveal how electric vehicles reshape the automotive industry. The European automotive sector, long the engine of continental prosperity, faces an existential reckoning. China's undisputed champion, BYD, has a lot of say in how this all turns out.Welcome back to a bonus edition of the podcast. My name is Martyn Lee and over the last few weeks I’ve been looking into the future of Chinese-made, or European-made but Chinese-funded EVs. I’ll have a look at some of the big names over the course of the coming months, but today we’ll start at the top – BYD. A reminder you can get the podcasts ad-free supporting my work on Patreon.

BONUS: Can Tesla's Cybertruck Go Global?

The stainless-steel wedge on wheels has become a symbol of Elon Musk's bravado. The man with the midas touch unveiled his Next Big Thing, and a million fans duly got in line with deposits. At the time, Tesla and it’s showman CEO could do no wrong. They were on a roll. In his own words, if nobody buys the Cybertruck, Tesla will redesign it to be more conventional. But could a redesign keep the looks whilst making it meet the road regs outside of the USA?Fast forward to now. North American sales have now dried up and regulatory barriers block global expansion, the Cybertruck faces an existential question: can it survive beyond its niche, or is this the beginning of the end for Tesla's most polarising product?Welcome back to a bonus edition of the podcast. My name is Martyn Lee and when I have something which requires a deeper look, you’ll sometimes find these bonus shows showing up in your feed. Speaking of which, Patreon supporters get the bonus shows 7 days exclusively before they drop into the free feed.

BONUS: Encouraging EV Adoption — The Carrot Or The Stick?

Depending on which headline you read, the electric vehicle market in America is either entering a long Winter, is at a crossroads or is taking a short pause before explosive growth.The federal tax credit expired on 30 September 2025, and the consequences arrived with brutal clarity: fourth-quarter EV sales plunged 46 per cent compared with the third quarter, dropping to levels not seen since late 2022.Ford announced a $19.5 billion write-down on its electric ambitions and halted production of the F-150 Lightning. General Motors followed with $6 billion in charges related to unwinding EV investments. The Detroit giants, once racing towards electrification, now pivot back towards hybrids and traditional powertrains. America had chosen the carrot approach — generous tax incentives to pull consumers into EVs — and when that carrot disappeared, the market collapsed.The timing could not be worse. Europe wrestles with its own crisis of confidence, watering down its 2035 combustion engine ban to a 90 per cent emissions reduction target after intense industry pressure. China phases out subsidies even as it mandates ever-stricter efficiency standards. The global automotive industry faces a fundamental question: can consumers be enticed into EVs through incentives alone, or do markets require the regulatory stick of mandates and bans? The answer, it turns out, depends less on ideology than on execution, consistency and time.
