In this episode James, Richard and Matt discuss Elon taking control (1:20) but still not building as many cars as he said he would (1:40).
Tesla introduces a new warranty for cars they do build (2:45) and while Holden acknowledges it has a mountain to climb, there's a real probability they haven't brought the right gear for the job (6:10).
Matt went to Melbourne and saw a room full of new HiLuxes (HiLuxii?) (11:20), Frosty Chops is exploring a new market (15:10) and a lot of people are buying new cars (16:15).
We wonder if Jaguar is cool enough to have a small SUV (19:35), if the Genesis Essentia concept unveiled in New York is ever going to make it to production (no) (23:35) and what Ferrari is planning with their developmental hybrid drivetrain (25:55).
Finally, carmakers in Europe are finding new ways to lose a lot of money as diesel falls out of favour on the continent (28:15).
James Cleary, Richard Berry and Matt Campbell tear down, pressure test and rebuild the issues of the automotive week.
