EV Startups Struggle, Acura ADX Review, Shrinking Big Cities and the Future of Mobility

Jill and Tom open the show discussing the poor first-half financial returns of EV startups Lucid and Rivian, and the surprising impact recent emissions deregulation will have on their bottom lines. The hosts also touch on the slow sales start of Lucid’s new Gravity EV crossover.  Still in the first segment, Jill reviews the subcompact Acura ADX crossover. Jill likes the vehicle, but questions if it"s refined and powerful enough to be an Acura. Listen in for her complete review.  In the second segment Jill and Tom welcome Green Sense Show host Robert Colangelo to the program. Robert talked about his show—surprise news—and how shrinking cities may impact the auto industry and transportation in general.  In the last segment Jill is subjected to Tom’s “Korean or Japanese?” quiz. To close the show, Tom shared some highlights from an iSeeCars list of fastest-depreciating vehicles.
