Welcome back to EV News Daily. Coming up today, Ford launches the Power Promise incentive. This is a good one, by the way.

0:06.1

Rivian CEO wants a faster next rollout and why the Chinese EV companies had a bad month in Europe.

0:13.5

Plus, stay tuned because later in the show, I'll tell you about 70 more electric trucks rolling out in California.

Well, good morning, good afternoon, good evening, wherever you're listening around the world. Welcome to EVE News Daily, your trusted source of

0:23.2

EV information for Tuesday 1st of October, pinch punch and all that. I'm Martin Lee,

0:27.3

and I go through every EV story so you don't have to. And welcome to a new podcast, producer,

0:32.4

Mike Berry, on our Patreon platform. Mike, thank you so much. I couldn't do this without you. I mean, I literally couldn't do it without you because this is all I do now. It's kind of scary, but Patreon pays my

1:21.6

it because it's free. This sits at the very top of the EV charging food chain. This isn't 80 amp

1:26.5

Ford Charge Station Pro, bi-directional

1:29.4

home charger. Of all the charges that you could get inside your house, this is the one that,

1:34.4

this is one of the ones you would absolutely want. And it's not a little cheapy, like I say. It's

1:39.5

$1,310 MSRP. So to begin with, they're giving you this, but it gets even better. Now, this offer is
