Patrick and Tim discuss the war of words between Tesla CEO Elon Musk and President Donald Trump. They debate whether the dust up actually matters for Tesla’s business and explain how badly Musk’s foray into politics has backfired. Then the guys talk about Tesla’s robotaxi launch, which we now know is happening on June 22. Maybe.
Finally, they share their thoughts on the Hyundai Ioniq 9 and why it may be the best all-around EV you can buy right now.
In Plus/Minus, they discuss a promising new EV from BMW and a plan to tax EV owners $500 per year.
