Alex and Jim are in an airport to have a quick chat about the Paris Motor Show.

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. ---------- Charging Status is a regular podcast hosted by motoring journalists Alex Lowe, from the interface and Jim Starling from DefinitelyNotAGuru.

Alex and Jim look back at the last month of trips, driving EVs, filming videos and much more. Jim has been testing the Suzuki eVitara and the surprisingly impressive MG IM5, while Alex has been behind the wheel of everything Geely, including the Geely EX5, Smart #1 and the Volvo V60. They also share their highlights from the SMMT Test Day, discuss why the Hyundai Ioniq 6N feels so different to the 5N, and talk about whether plug-in hybrids are the best or worst of both worlds.

This time on the Charging Status EV Podcast, Alex is back from China after wondering around the humongous Beijing Auto Show and being one of the first people from the UK to drive the new Lepas L8. Also, some more serious chat about why we seem to just get SUVs and crossovers from China and when are we going to see something more interesting. Jim has also been driving some new cars from Peugeot and Mercedes and Alex has spent some time with the new Jaecoo 8. Show Notes Watch on YouTube
