Tesla’s Expanding Production Capacity, F-150 Lightning Prices

With co-host Jill Ciminillo out on assignment this week, host Tom Appel and co-host Damon Bell start the show by discussing the Chevrolet’s recent teaser video of an all-wheel-drive hybrid Chevrolet Corvette and official confirmation of a pure-electric Corvette. We also talk about Ford commencing production of the pure-electric F-150 Lightning pickup, and delve into the Lightning’s pricing structure. Sam Fiorani, Vice President of Global Vehicle Forecasting for AutoForecast Solutions, joins us to give his insight on Tesla’s new production facilities. Tom has a quiz on acronyms for Damon and Sam, and Damon runs down the latest articles on the Consumer Guide Daily Drive blog–including a First Spin test-drive review of Subaru’s first pure-electric vehicle: the 2023 Subaru Solterra.
