Patrick and Tim talk about the fallout of the EV tax credit ending for one particular automaker: Slate. The new startup planned to sell its bare-bones electric pickup for under $20,000 after federal incentives starting in 2026. So what’s next for this company?
Then the guys recap InsideEVs’ recent talk with Rivian CEO R.J. Scaringe, who had some harsh words for the legacy auto industry and its stance on EVs. Finally, they discuss used electric cars and why you probably shouldn’t worry about buying one with high mileage. Battery degradation just isn’t that big an issue, studies suggest.
Further reading: End of the EV tax credit hits the $20,000 Slate truck, Rivian CEO says automakers just want EVs to “go away,” RSEV study on battery degradation, comparison of a high-mileage and low-mileage Tesla Model 3
