Patrick and Tim start the show with the latest from General Motors’ earnings. EV sales are up across brands like Cadillac, but profits are down thanks to Trump’s tariffs. Then they recap Tesla’s Q2 earnings. They debate whether Tesla’s upcoming cheaper car—which Elon Musk just admitted is “just a Model Y”—is enough to turn things around.
Finally, they chat about semi-solid-state batteries from China, Tesla’s awesome new diner-themed Supercharger and why Mercedes is pulling its EQ cars from the U.S. market.
