From Tesla challengers to Skoda’s wild EV concept: rally Mustangs, record-breakers and the electric future of construction

This week on the Everything EV Podcast we go from gravel rally stages to construction sites, with a packed line-up of stories from the world of electrification.

Matt gets behind the wheel of the Ford Mustang Mach-E Rally to find out if a gravel-ready hot EV really makes sense and George goes behind the scenes with Volvo CE in Finland’s World Rallycross to see how electrification is reshaping motorsport. We also hear directly from Volvo Construction Equipment’s Arvid Rinaldo about how battery power is transforming heavy industry.

The team also discuss:

• The UK Government’s fix for a glaring loophole in the electric car grant rules

• Vauxhall’s spicy Corsa GSe show car, a hint at its first all-electric hot hatch

• Record-breaking EVs from Mercedes-AMG and Yangwang that are pushing the limits of performance

• The new Tesla Model Y Performance and what its 460bhp update means for fans of physical controls

• Xiaomi’s 2027 European launch plans as another Chinese giant lines up against Tesla

• Skoda’s reimagined Felicia Fun pick-up concept for the EV era

From road cars to rally cars and even construction machinery, we cover the EV innovations that matter.
