In this episode of the Everything EV podcast, brought to you by EV Powered.

Hosts Matt Allan and Richard Alvin dive into the latest trends, challenges, and developments in the electric vehicle industry, delivering insights you won't want to miss.

In this week's episode, the focus shifts to some lesser-discussed but equally important aspects of the EV world. Mazda makes headlines with its quiet but impactful return to the EV market with the upcoming launch of the electric version of the Mazda 6 in Europe. Will this new model help Mazda atone for its less-than-stellar first EV attempt? 

The hosts also explore fascinating new data from Epixie, revealing that after three years, EVs cost 45% less in servicing, maintenance, and repair compared to petrol or diesel cars. This data finally provides concrete evidence supporting the long-held belief that EVs are more economical to run in the long term.

The episode also highlights the arrival of new, affordable electric vehicles from Chinese manufacturers like Dongfeng, which are expected to shake up the European market. With models like the Nami Box super mini offering budget-friendly options, will these newcomers fill the gap in the market for small, urban-focused EVs?

Matt and Richard don’t shy away from controversial topics either. They critically analyse a recent Harry's Garage video by automotive expert Harry Metcalfe, challenging some of his views on the ZEV mandate and public charging costs. Are EVs really as expensive and impractical as some critics claim, or is there more to the story?

The episode wraps up with an intriguing discussion with Osman Boyner, CEO of Bedeo, who shares his insights on in-wheel technology and how it could revolutionize the future of EVs.
