In this episode, Mandy is joined by Alborz Fallah and Mike Costello, with James Wong chiming in to run through the latest in automotive news and what’s happening at the CarExpert offices around Australia.

    This week in car news, the team talks about Hyundai’s new all-electric E-GMP platform with over 500km of range, Victoria’s fines for motorists who block EV chargers, Isuzu’s ongoing supply delays, as well as November’s VFACTS results – and they’re positive for the first time in a while.

    James Wong joins the panel to discuss his first Australian drive of the updated Alfa Romeo Giulia Sport, and Mike speaks to Volkswagen Australia boss, Michael Bartsch, about the company’s plans moving forward.
