Tesla Model Q, Rumor Revived?, electric vehicle
“Will they, won’t they?” This eternal question about a more affordable Tesla has been swirling for ages. Whispers of a sub-$30,000 electric vehicle once filled the air, only to be abruptly silenced by Elon Musk’s grand pronouncements of a steering wheel-less future.
But hold your breath! A fresh report from Deutsche Bank, an institution I’d wager holds more weight than your average Tesla fan forum, suggests a $30,000 contender, codenamed “Model Q,” might actually see the light of day next year. Could this mark the dawn of a truly accessible EV era? A game-changer for the entire industry? Perhaps.
This week on the Plugged-In Podcast, we’re diving deep into this exciting news, but that’s not all. We’re also celebrating the winners of our inaugural 2024 Breakthrough Awards!
Joining me today are the brilliant minds of Deputy Editor Mack Hogan and contributor Abigail Bassett. Together, we’ll dissect our choices for the best EVs of the year – the Chevy Equinox EV, Rivian R1S, Tesla Cybertruck, Lucid Air Pure, and Kia EV9. We’ll delve into why the Chevy Equinox EV ultimately reigned supreme, while also sharing some behind-the-scenes stories of intense debates and nail-biting close calls.

- Stronger Opening: Instead of simply stating the topic, the opening now poses a rhetorical question to immediately capture the listener’s attention.
- Intriguing Teasers: Provided hints about the episode’s content, such as “nail-biting close calls,” to pique curiosity.
