It's TV News briefly for Thursday 17th of October.

Everything you need to know in just four minutes.

If you haven't got time for the, well, 28 minutes for today's full podcast, you'll still be up to date even with our summary right here.

Ford starts the electric Capri deliveries in Europe.

European mainland have three versions, standard range rear-wheel drive and then some extended range versions in all-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive. Here in the UK, we don't get the smaller

No, 500 kilowatt hours of free charging. Plus, you get the Electrify America

Pass Plus, which gives you quarter off charging costs. That's a much more, I think,

reasonable incentive charging package that doesn't then clog up the United States DC fast charging.

The Nissan ARIA owners will get Tesla Supercharger access.

It looks like before the end of this year, that was a real surprise.

We thought Volvo Polestar were next.

But Nissan's saying that they will roll out the adapters around the same time as they get access to the Tesla Supercharge and network.

And from 2025, although no date in 25, new Arias will come with Native NACs.

The J-3400 standard will be part of their vehicles.
