After a chance meeting at the Tesla Owner's Meeting in May 2023 , I sit down with Nobu, (AKA Kagonma) the guy who drove from the most southern island of Japan to Tokyo in a standard range Tesla Model 3, and his journey isn't even over yet! This guy is my idol, he's already done what I dreamt of doing on this channel!

EV Man Japan Podcast - Why is Japan so Committed to Hydrogen-Powered Vehicles?
play

08/22/23 • 59 min

In this episode I'm joined by Phone from Kawasaki, he's a Tesla Model 3 owner who paid for FSD in Japan, but does he think it's worth it right now? He also has some great tips for summer driving, and for people with white seats! In the second part we move on to the bigger topic of Japan's obsession with hydrogen cars, and he came up with some very plausible reasons!

In this episode I'm joined by relatively new Model 3 owner, Glen who is based in Osaka. He's already been on some fantastic trips in his Tesla all around Japan, including crossing Japan's longest suspension bridge (world's No.2 longest by the way!). Listen to his story of the amazing test-drive opportunity he had back in the US before he started living in Japan too, pretty cool! Thanks once again to Glen for joining me!
