The Expert Podcast

• It's been a rough week for electric vehicles (EVs) as reports suggest that the EV bubble might have popped.
• According to an article from Baron, the numbers are hard to ignore—consumers aren't buying EVs at the expected rate, and car dealers are starting to voice their concerns.

• Is the slowdown in EV sales a temporary setback or the beginning of a bigger issue for the EV market?
• Will electric vehicles remain a dominant part of the automotive industry, or are they just another fad like the pet rock?
