Tesla Model Q rumors, EV sales set records, and $2B California solar

Tonight on Quick Charge, we wonder if the upcoming Tesla Cybercab could actually benefit from growing a few pedals. Meanwhile, Tesla Supercharger customers are getting a better deal this week, and there's a new, $2 billion solar project coming on line in southern California.

We've also got a report showing that EV charging sessions were up 50% YoY during the Thanksgiving weekend, an inexpensive flat-pack truck that's bringing e-mobility to Africa, and a whole lot more.
