Earlier this week, Jaguar unveiled their new EV concept called the Type Double Zero. Very much a concept vehicle. So very long, long bonnet, kind of the opposite of what we see in EV world, really, which is to push the wheels to the corners and have a big interior space. This, I don't know, I'm not sure what to make of it. It is just a drawing, really. We have seen those spy shots where the dimensions are not wildly different.

Very big bonnet on this.

So you could store a lot under there.

And also they say that this harks back to the days of Jaguar Etypes and XJS's.

Yeah.

So they're trying to pass that off for saying,

we've got nothing to sell you for the next 12 months.

But please get excited about our Jaguar EVs, which are coming. They're going to go super premiums, $120,000 or dollars-ish, and upwards, so they're Bentley competing, Jaguar moving in that

direction. Meanwhile, a vehicle that is a lot more mainstream is selling very well in the US, and that's

the Honda Prolog that keeps on selling and selling and selling. Over 25,000 of them now in the US,

and lease prices, that will probably be why, because I think they're around 2.30, 240 a month.

It's a very good choice if you can get a good lease deal on that. And of course, it's a general

motors vehicle based on their,

don't call it ultium anymore, technology. So 300 miles of range, you know, Apple CarPlay, Android

Auto, which you don't get in the GM cars. Honda have tuned it with different suspension and what

have you. And otherwise, it's a really compelling EV and people like the prolog and are buying

it. Genesis are refreshing their GV70 Electric for 2025.

That comes next year, up against your Audi Q6s and BMWs and Polestar 4s, maybe,

Polestar 3, possibly.
