Top 5 EVs Ever w/ Kyle Connor

What are the best EVs yet? Is charging getting better? Can the grid handle it? Which electric pickup would win in a cross-country race? Are batteries recyclable? All that and more with Kyle Connor.

Kyle Connor is a YouTuber in command of a whopping 17 different channels. He focused on EVs, covering the space comprehensively. He has road tripped, towed with, tested, charged, and driven more EVs than most people will in a lifetime. As such, he has excellent insights into why EVs have the problems that they do, the state of the charging situation, battery recycling, the grid, and more.

He recently completed a cross-country "race", where he and his co-hosts drove from Florida to Los Angeles in 4 electric pickup trucks. The results were literally susprising.
