Loren McDonald stops by Quick Charge to discuss EV charging, Paren, and more
Episode description
Leading electric vehicle analyst, author, and industry thought leaders Loren McDonald and Bill Ferro stop by Quick Charge to discuss EV Adoption's acquisition by Paren, the "crisis" of EV charging reliability, and the real state of the EV market.
Depending on who you listen, EVs are either driving brands to record growth and are about cross that critical 10% of the overall market nationwide, or the future is bleak, the market is down, and EVs just aren't selling. What's really going on? Loren and Bill (probably) have some answers.
