From InsideEVs.
Tim is on vacation this week so InsideEVs’ Kevin Williams is back to talk about more of the EVs he tested in China. Most notably: China’s best-selling car, the BYD Seagull, which starts around $8,000. It’s headed to Europe and other places soon, and Kevin discusses how it drives—and why it’s a game-changer. Plus, Patrick and Kevin test a plug-in hybrid that may be the future of plug-in hybrids.
