In this episode, we dive into the latest developments in electric and autonomous vehicle technology. Uber selects the first city for its Lucid Gravity robotaxi rollout, signaling a major step forward in driverless ride-hailing. Meanwhile, Tesla's Full Self-Driving v14 continues to underwhelm with reports of erratic behavior including braking and hallucinations. Kia makes headlines with its electric van setting a Guinness World Record for range. We also look at Lucid’s ambitions to deliver a ‘mind-off’ autonomous driving experience with Nvidia’s tech. And for a deeper understanding of EV range testing, a YouTube breakdown of WLTP and EPA procedures is featured. Buckle up for a packed episode full of EV insights.Support the Show<a href="https://www.supportkilowatt.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.supportkilowatt.com</a>Other Podcasts:<ul><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@beyondthepostfm" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Beyond the Post YouTube</a></li><li><a href="https://www.beyondthepost.fm/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Beyond the Post Podcast</a></li><li><a href="https://shows.acast.com/shuffle-playlist" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Shuffle Playlist</a></li><li><a href="https://www.918digital.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">918Digital Website</a></li></ul>Other Links:<ul><li><a href="https://dandyfunhouse.com/2025/10/halloween-special-2025-dandy-spook-shack-episode-55/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Dandy Fun House</a></li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9g9dLq-ihLk&t=328s" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Out of Spec Reviews WLTP Rating</a></li></ul>News Links:<ul><li><a href="https://electrek.co/2025/10/29/uber-chooses-first-market-lucid-gravity-robotaxi-nuro-driver/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Uber chooses first market to deploy its Lucid Gravity robotaxis</a></li><li><a href="https://electrek.co/2025/10/29/tesla-full-self-driving-v14-disappoints-with-hallucinations-brake-stabbing-speeding/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tesla Full Self-Driving v14 disappoints with hallucinations, brake stabbing, and speeding</a></li><li><a href="https://www.autoblog.com/commercial-trucks/kias-new-electric-van-just-set-a-guinness-world-record-for-range" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kia’s New Electric Van Just Set a Guinness World Record for Range</a></li><li><a href="https://insideevs.com/news/777224/lucid-midsize-autonomous-driving-nvidia/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lucid Wants To Sell The First 'Mind-Off' Autonomous Car With Nvidia's Help</a></li><li><a href="https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-full-self-driving-v14-1-first-impressions-robotaxi-like-features-arrive/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tesla Full Self-Driving v14.1 first impressions: Robotaxi-like features arrive</a></li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9g9dLq-ihLk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Here’s How Electric Cars Are WLTP / EPA Range Tested!
