Petrol cars could soon be the ones with range anxiety. And some of the world's biggest carmakers may not survive the shift to electric.
In this episode of The EV Charging Podcast, Jeff Sykes and Dan Carson sit down with Sam Evans, creator of The Electric Viking and one of Australia's best-known independent EV voices, to unpack where the global car industry is heading.
Sam shares why he believes Chinese EV manufacturers caught Western and Japanese carmakers sleeping, why decades of brand loyalty could disappear faster than expected, and why buying a hybrid today may carry more risk than many drivers realise.
We also explore:
- Can Toyota, Ford and other legacy carmakers catch up?
- Why Chinese EV manufacturers have moved so quickly
- The electric ute Australia is still waiting for
- Why Sam thinks petrol cars could eventually suffer ”range anxiety”
- The rapid evolution of EV batteries and charging
- How rooftop solar could accelerate EV adoption in Australia
- How The Electric Viking grew to hundreds of thousands of subscribers
- Paid car reviews, sponsorships and independence in automotive media
It's a wide-ranging and unfiltered conversation about EVs, batteries, China and the disruption reshaping the global automotive industry.
