Charging Status: December 2022
Charging Status12/07/22 • 60 min
We have quite a fully-packed show for you this month, with a lot of new vehicles being announced or having more details revealed about them. We also have a bit of a chat about the London ULEV zone expansion, as well as cyclists and eScooters (with a little rant from James on some of the amazingly unsafe things he's seen) on UK roads after 1-in-3 surveyed drivers say cyclists should be banned from the roads and be forced to use dedicated cycle paths.
We'd really like to hear your thoughts on this episode, especially as we raise some interesting questions about the state of the EV market, the environment and things like road tax for EV owners. we’d love to hear from you, so send a note over to podcast@chargingstatus.net, leave a comment on the post, or start a discussion in Goodpods.
We're also very pleased to say that Charging Status now has its own feed and is part of the brand-new Crossed Wires website via our shiny new domain (chargingstatus.net). A huge thanks to our Crossed Wires co-host, Jae, for all her help getting the show submitted to virtually every podcast directory under the sun.
If you liked this episode or any of our content, we’d greatly appreciate any little bit of support you can throw our way over at our Ko-Fi page.
