Tesla may be closing the door on an entire era.

In this episode, we unpack reports that Tesla is moving on from the Model S, Model X, and potentially Autopilot as we know it. We explore why Tesla might be cutting its longest-running vehicles, how its driver-assistance strategy is evolving, and what this all means for owners, buyers, and the future of electric vehicles.

From shifting priorities to bold risks, this could be one of Tesla’s most consequential decisions yet.

If you follow Tesla, EVs, or the future of transportation, this episode is a must-listen.

Electric vehicles just crossed a historic milestone. For the first time ever, fully electric cars outsold petrol vehicles in the European Union — and it happened faster than most experts expected. In this episode, we break down:

• The exact sales numbers behind the EU’s EV milestone

• Why petrol car sales are falling — and why EV adoption surged

• Which automakers are winning and losing (BYD, Tesla, VW, and more)

• How EU policy, incentives, and regulation shaped this moment

• What this means for the future of gas cars, EV prices, and the auto industry

On today's episode, Joel and Sebastian drive a 2025 Tesla Model 3 Performance, courtesy of Evolve Auto (evolveauto.com).

The Tesla Model 3 Highland is a phenomenal update to an already great car, and the Performance variant takes that and turns it into a rocketship, with a 0-60 time of 2.9 seconds. This car is truly the definition of Electric Muscle.
