NEW! It's a 'life and death decade for automakers', but keeping your finger on the PULSE of the industry has been almost impossible; until now. As part of a new weekly podcast, engineer, Imogen Bhogal & entrepreneur, Dan Caesar, pull back the curtain on the carmakers. Is 2026 the year that the 'House of Cars' collapses? Who's on the up, who's hitting the skids, and who's going up in smoke? This week, Imogen and Dan discuss XPeng, Hyundai, Porsche and reflect on Rachel Reeves' budget.
