Took the Geely EX2 for a blast in Australia. To save you a click, starts at $33k for 252 km (WLTP). Suspension is great and has more storage than most of its size, but 0-100 is 11 sec in the top-spec one, plus it's not the fastest charging car (max 80 kW DC). OTA updates & data included though.

Want to troll those angry old "You won't catch me DEAD in an electric car" people? Tell 'em you've booked this as their final ride. 😁

For such a fancy hotel they still use these cheap & nasty folding seats. Impossible to sit comfortably on them without getting the worst wedgie.

Filming complete. Not allowed to say what I drove today or give driving impressions but I can't stop you from jumping to logical conclusions. 😂

A great metaphor for AI in the real world. 😄

Oops. Our bus got stuck. Then the bus behind tried to get around us and promptly got stuck too. If nothing else, seeing professional drivers cock up like this is really helping with my imposter syndrome. 😅

Getting the hang of how these Zeekr cars handle at a mystery location. Those snow banks are calling me like a psiren song... I hope I can resist them.

Holy Russets. 😲 This is the view from my hotel room! This small town boy is getting pampered. Something tells me the next couple of days are going to be interesting. Can't wait to see what I'll be driving.

Got a YouTube link here if people prefer that. This is NZ's new 400 kW rapid charger in action. Can't wait to plug the Leaflet into it! 😄💥💥

Just unearthed this clip from when we strengthened the frame on the Allegro before installing the Nissan Leaf motor. Needed a lot of support because these old British Leyland cars have the the structural rigidity of a Longbridge cobweb. Also, check out the Riddara vs Hilux EV swamp test if you can.

Another day, another flight to a mystery location. This one's supposed to be like nothing I've ever experienced though. Let's see where we end up and what we end up driving. 😁

Japan vs China: I put the new electric Toyota Hilux up against this electric ute from China to see which is the superior farm vehicle. But... who will win? Only one way to find out... Grab your cop porn! 🍿

The heavy exhale after getting your electric ute stuck... again. 😆 Hilux vs Riddara video is almost done. It'll be ready this weekend and I'm really thrilled with how it's looking so far. Bloody good fun. Now I can do all the goofy stuff I wasn't allowed to with my former employer.
