Rivian on fire, Tesla adapters, Isuzu gets real, and a new Acura EV for 9


On today’s episode of Quick Charge, Michelle Lewis sets the record straight on the fire at the Normal, Illinois Rivian factory, Tesla is churning out adapters, and you can score a sweet deal on a new Acura ZDX electric crossover.

We also cover the groundbreaking new electric medium duty commercial truck from Isuzu, and ask ourselves why there aren’t more electric vehicle manufacturers offering as much flexibility in terms of battery size. All this and more – check it out!
