Description

I spoke with Simon Mall, who leads the EV charging business at McLaren Applied, the high-tech spin-out from the McLaren Group. We discussed his "Four Waves of Electrification" framework, which traced the evolution of EVs from early compliance-focused models to today’s emerging software-defined vehicles. Simon also shared how the EV charging ecosystem has mirrored this progression, moving from fragmented infrastructure to an AI-driven future focused on uptime, standardisation, and energy optimisation.
