Coming up on podcast 1949, Elon Musk talks Cybertruck with Joe Rogan.

0:05.0

Toyota admit their EV investment has been lacking, and BMW gets a step closer to their

0:10.8

next-gen batteries.

0:12.1

Plus, stay tuned because later in the show, I'll tell you which country just put the Ford

0:15.9

F-150 Lightning on sale for buyers outside of the US.

0:19.9

But first, Hyundai's Arnick 6 is seeing some big price discounts for the next model year in the US.

0:26.6

Base model Arnick 6 SE standard range, that's a small battery. Now 38615, remember that number for what we compare it to.

0:35.2

That's a reduction of $4,100 from the 2023 model.

0:39.0

Now, this model features a single motor rear wheel drive along with a small battery, 53 kilowatt

hours. That's 240 miles of EPA range. But the SE's longer range price with the bigger battery

is 43-565. That's next year's model year, and that is a $3,050

The current US starting price for that is $40,000, $630, but qualifies for the $7,500 EV tax credit, which the Hyundai doesn't, and that could be a deal breaker.

1:35.0

Next, we'll talk Elon Musk dropping into the Joe Rogan show.

1:37.6

This is the fourth time he's done that, and giving us a few cyber truck insights.

1:41.6

Well, no, actually, no, not really.

1:46.4

Nothing he said is what we haven't heard before.

1:50.6

It wasn't quite an Elon greatest hits set, which some of the earnings calls can be.

1:56.1

He complained about how hard it is to make things and how prototypes are easy and mass production is hard.

2:03.2

He took the cyber truck on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, and Rogan tested the durability of it by shooting it with his bow and arrow. Here is what they said, though, about the weight and performance.
