Episode description

Pierre Boutin, President and CEO of Volkswagen Group Canada, joined the podcast in late November 2023 for a conversation about electric mobility. We talk about the Canadian EV market, supply chains, how we compare with Scandinavia, EV mandates, the promotion of e-mobility, customer interest and acceptance, and what the future may look like for range and price of EVs. We also talk about VW investments in battery development and manufacturing, and other aspects of the electric mobility ecosystem. We close out our conversation with a great recommendation for an addition to the Flux Capacitor Book Club.
