Are we ready for EVs? With Vauxhall's UK MD

The Big Green Money Show

Available for over a year

The UK will ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars in 2030. So Dragon’s Den star Deborah Meaden is on a mission to find out if we’re ready. Deborah and co-star Felicity Hannah talk to the boss of Vauxhall about the company’s plans to turn its production lines all-electric. Plus they answer your questions (and there were a lot of them) on all things EV, from cost, to chargers to range. And they hear about plans to build a huge new gigafactory producing batteries in Northumberland. Got a question? Ask Deborah and Fliss using the hashtag #GreenMoneyShow on Twitter or email the show at [email protected] Producer: Lexy O’Connor Studio manager: Joe Leates Digital videos: Samhar Gowhar Executive producer Natasha Johansson Series editor: Justin Bones
