How do we make EVs sexy — or is that even the right question? This week on The Radiator Arms James (JayEmm on Cars) is joined by Ant (SPORTZ N TOURING) and Will (Will the Plank) to argue about styling, sound, range anxiety, bargain EVs, and whether electric cars can ever capture a petrolhead's heart. ★ In this episode we dig into: • Sexy EVs vs gimmicks: Renault 5 E-Turbo, Rimac, Lotus Evija, McMurtry Speirling and the EVs that actually look cool. • Fake exhausts, synthetic gearshifts, and whether added noise would make EVs feel more exciting (or just ridiculous). • Is Porsche’s electric Cayman make-or-break for EV sports cars? And will lightweight platforms like the Kōmā (Project V) ever get to market? • Accessibility & culture: cheap EVs as entry points, starter race series, and the idea that “sexy” is often just good design and affordability. 📧 Got a story or an EV you want us to test?
