Jill and Tom opened this week’s show hitting briefly on a number of topics, including melting EV charging adapters, Jaguar’s perplexing marketing reboot, the electric Dodge Charger Daytona, the high-mileage Ram 1500 HFE, and the consolidation of Infiniti and Nissan dealer stores.
Still in the first segment, Jill recapped her time in the all-new Volkswagen ID. Buzz electric minivan. Jill found much to like, but noted that the van comes up short on estimated battery range, and that starting prices are high.
In the second segment the hosts welcome Mark Gillies of Volkswagen to expand the ID. Buzz conversation. Mark shared a number of key details, including brand expectations that the van serve as a halo model, and not a high-volume offering.
In the last segment Jill is subjected to Tom’s “One Minute” quiz, in which she is challenged to answer questions in less than 60 seconds.
