Alex and Jim are back for the very first episode from the brand new podcast studio, down in Jim's office. Discussed is SMMT Drive Live where Alex got some wheel spin in the cheeky Honda Super-N and knocks over a buffet lunch. Jim's also been in Holland to see the new Hyundai Tuscon and in France to drive the Kia EV4 GT!

Alex and Jim discuss the fantastic and practically faultless Kia EV2, Jim's interesting week with the 900bhp Lotus Emeya (which sort of turned him into a local celebrity) and the fact that Kia is making a PV5 food truck, which is the stuff of dreams, for a solid 2AM kebab.

This week, Jim is sat in his new office and Alex is sat in his Jaecoo E5 long termer, in a Sainsbury’s car park. Discussed is Jim's time around Brands Hatch in the Hyundai Ioniq 6N, the more affordable EVs on the way, Alex's time with the Kia PV5 and the larger cars that Lotus is making now.
