In this episode, Bodie explores major developments in the electric vehicle landscape, beginning with Canada’s decision to reduce tariffs on Chinese EVs and how that could reshape affordability and competition in North America. He shares personal reflections on balancing family and podcasting throughout 2025, giving listeners a grounded and relatable look behind the mic. The conversation then moves into the China–Canada trade agreement’s broader implications, Mercedes’ decision to halt its Level 3 autonomy program, and the transparency questions surrounding Tesla’s shift to an FSD subscription model. Bodie also breaks down how subscription pricing compares to outright ownership and why Tesla may benefit legally and financially from the change. As always, he weaves personal insights with industry news to make these evolving trends accessible and engaging.
