The number of electric vehicles on the road keeps increasing every year. But challenges remain.
This week, Tesla recalled two million vehicles following a years-long probe into faulty autopilot safety controls. Changes are coming to the significant financial incentives available to buyers. Building the infrastructure to support these vehicles is slow-going. And North Carolina continues to be a growing player in electric vehicle battery production.
Due South co-host Jeff Tiberii discusses those topics and the growth of EVs with two people who follow the industry closely.
