It's even used briefly for Sunday 8th of March, everything EV in less than five minutes.

If you don't have time for the full show, but don't want to be out of the loop.

Hyundai and Kia pull back US plants, plans scaling back their US ambitions.

They blame affordability pressures and rising tariff uncertainty with Hyundai cutting

the IONX 6 to only the high performance N variant and Kia delaying the EV6 GT and

the EV9 GT indefinitely facing at least 15% US tariffs that could rise.

MG will reveal a concept car at Goodwood this year, the festival of speed in July.

It's the MG2, a small EV, four metres long, perfect for urban situations.

In fact, sitting below the MG4 Urban, a car actually called Urban.

Not only in size, but in name as well, due in 2027, watch out Run-O-5 and BYD Dolphin

Surfi Reckham.

Mercedes-AMG showing off the interior of their new electric 4-door GT ahead of its full

unveil.

This is screen central.

If you have a bit of an adversion to all the screens invading our cars like I do, I'm

not sure it's very classy, or timeless, or high-end, to be honest with you, the year

out of luck.

Think Mercedes-Benz hyper screen?

Yeah, just all the way across, but more on steroids, just screens for every passenger.

Ferrari is next, they haven't got screens everywhere, but they do have enough tech on board

to, perhaps, bother, a few of the gas-scuzzling aficionados, but they are going electric with

their luché EV, debuting next month.

Across over, a bit smaller than a pureo sangue, now we find out range should be over 300

miles in horsepower over a thousand from four electric motors.

Good news from Ireland, expanding its grant scheme for heavy-duty vehicles offering

companies up to 500,000 euros per year for zero-mission truck and bus purchases, and

up to 300,000 for depot and hub charging infrastructure.

Very important work to do, which is why I noticed this story today.

The UK has reached 1000 registered electric heavy goods vehicles with E-HGV registrations

rising 171% last year alone on the previous year.

It's one of our national networks of fast charges, and I think some of the best sites have

the electric freightway program helping goods be delivered electrically.

M-A-N truck and bus, completing winter testing of their new big coach.

If you want to shift 60-70 passengers in electric power, they've just concluded their

minus 30-degree Celsius testing in northern Sweden.

Stellantis is warning that it may reduce its UK operations unless the government bows

to its demands to reform the zero-imission vehicle mandate, arguing the rules, getting manufacturers

to go electric loses them money.

Stellantis has been one of the more outspoken car makers alongside Ford and some of the others

as well, but not afraid to wield their threats and power, and they have a lot of manufacturing

here and you know that does make politicians wobble, doesn't it?

And so we'll see if they follow through, or whether it's an idle threat.

Volkswagen commercial vehicles has begun pre-series production of their autonomous ID buzz.

It's called the Buzz ID, and they're making it the Hanover plant.

500 vehicles will be made this year.

This is proper, autonomy has got the big sensor suite with the cameras, the radar, the

lidar, full production next year, and full autonomy being the goal.

And finally, a great bit of news to end the weekend.

Um, UK greenhouse gas emissions fell to 1.5% last year.

The lowest since 1872, driven by the closure of our last coal-fired plant, the UK's 3 million

EVs, now saving over 7 million tons of CO2 annually.

Great news, and that's briefly.

Hey, it's Cole Swendell, and when I spend 200 days a year rolling down the highway,

the bus can start to feel smaller than a guitar case.

Everyone wonders how I stay chill while the hours crawl by.

Truth is, one good luck spent on Chamba, and suddenly the trip does a whole lot shorter.

Find in your space, even when there isn't much to spare.

Need some chill?
