This week, we (mainly) discuss electric cars as Daniel suggests an opportunity for Skoda to return to Malaysia via their new lineup of global EVs and Ariff investigates Volvo's impressive and all-electric XC40 Recharge. Finally, the trio finds out whether the emergence of new and exciting electric cars in Malaysia will change the way Malaysians see car brands. Will we continue to be badge snobs?
