Few people have driven as many cars as Tom Voelk, an Emmy-winning automotive journalist and New York Times contributor with 65 million views on his car review channel. In this conversation with the guys from the VWIDTalk Podcast, Tom shared his unfiltered take on EVs, car buying myths, and the future of automotive design.
We talked about the cars that surprised him, what makes an EV truly stand out, and why he believes that keeping a car you love is one of the smartest financial (and environmental) decisions you can make.
From Tesla’s dominance to Hyundai’s game-changing EVs and the real barriers to adoption, Tom breaks it all down with a perspective shaped by decades in the industry. If you’re wondering which EVs are worth your time, how charging costs stack up, or whether plug-in hybrids still make sense, this conversation is packed with insights.
