Description

Tesla’s “Master Plan Part IV” dropped this week, filled with vague notions about “sustainable abundance” and lacking the concrete goals of Tesla’s prior mission statements. Patrick and Tim break down what it says about Tesla right now—and whether the X post was written by Grok.



Then, they discuss August’s EV surge, led by GM and fueled by expiring tax credits. Plus, InsideEVs Staff Writer Kevin Williams joins the show to talk about his tour of Slate Auto’s upcoming factory and his chat with its CCO. In Plus/Minus, the guys gas up Audi’s stunning electric concept car.
