Simon’s voice is hanging on by a thread… so naturally he decides to do 700 miles of EV road trip admin and talk about it anyway.
- Audi Q6 road trip reality: 300 miles, one 12-minute stop, and a 265kW charging flex (plus the “nothing to do but scroll” problem)
- Spreadsheet terrorism: the true cost per mile of EV life, plus tyre maths that suggests the rears will last until 2038
- M6 Junction 37 drama: the notorious stop-sign slip road near Kendal, why it catches drivers out, and what “fixing it” might look like
