## Resource

This week on the Kilowatt Half Hour, Vicky, Batch and Tom tackle another packed week in the world of EVs, from rumours of a cut-price electric Škoda Citigo revival to Volvo’s bold claim that cars “wouldn’t be accepted” if invented today. There’s chat about the stunning new Volvo EX60, the tiny Škoda Epiq, and whether the AMG GT Coupe is actually… good looking? Plus, the team discuss manual gearboxes and diesel engines potentially disappearing by 2030, and the latest cars added to the UK government’s EV grant scheme. Also this week: ⚡ Could MG’s new parking tech cure Britain’s worst parkers? ⚡ Lee from Doncaster needs help choosing his next company EV ⚡ Barnard’s Bargain returns with a tempting Volvo EX30 lease deal ⚡ Your comments on battery degradation, charging, terminology nitpicks — and complaints that the podcast STILL isn’t long enough… As always, expect news, views, gentle arguing and questionable tangents from the Electrifying.com team.
