## Resource

This week on the Kilowatt Half Hour, the Electrifying.com team discuss Ford’s plans to bring back the iconic Fiesta as an electric car, Skoda’s all-new 7-seater (or has it “Peaqed”?) and the unusual lengths one Chinese brand is going to in order to tempt buyers – with free ice cream on offer for test drives. There’s also a look at what we’ve been driving, including the Zeekr 7GT, Volkswagen ID. Buzz, Audi Q4 e-tron facelift, Polestar 2 and Skoda Peaq, plus Barnard’s Bargains with the best new and used EV deals. In Almost an EV Virgin, we hear from a listener who’s swapped to a Changan Deepal S07 and wants to spread the word about one of China’s newest arrivals to the UK. Our reader question tackles a luxury SUV dilemma: would we choose the upcoming Porsche Cayenne Electric or the Volvo EX60? We also dive into your comments on learning to drive in a manual, the importance of EV smartphone apps, Audi’s electric future and Zeekr’s UK launch. As always, thanks for listening, and don’t forget to subscribe, leave us a review and send your questions or comments to podcast@electrifying.com . Hosted on Acast.
