The end of your weekend?... Going off-road in an EV

What could be more true to the Aussie experience than a bit of bush-bashing off the beaten track, but can EVs cut the mustard when it comes to off-road driving? This is the question Nadine and Rusty are on a mission to answer with Ralph Gilles, head of design at Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, who helped design the first off-road 4x4 electric Jeep that might just crawl better than its ICE counterpart. We also meet EV-er Geoff Morgan who you’ll find driving a Porsche Taycan - yes, a Taycan – to and from his farm 300km away. The news has Nadine blushing with the mention of Zac Efron, and trucksales.com.au Editor Geoff Middleton gives us the rundown on electric trucks after visiting the IAA Transportation Show in Hanover. And Dave Budge, Chief Product Officer at Fellten, tells us about how an idea to convert his beloved Land Rover to an EV, led to a business that might just have you considering a retrofit.
