BONUS: Dieselgate10 - From Lies To Lithium (Part 1)

Welcome back to the podcast, welcome to a bonus show, the first of a two-part documentary investigation into the effect ‘dieselgate’ had on the EV industry. On September 18, 2015, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a Notice of Violation to the Volkswagen Group, a document that would detonate a crisis of unprecedented scale in the global automotive industry. The allegation was simple yet devastating: the German automotive giant had deliberately programmed its "Clean Diesel" vehicles with sophisticated software to cheat on emissions tests. This was not a technical miscalculation or a minor compliance issue; it was a conscious, years-long deception. The event, which quickly became known as 'Dieselgate', publicly shattered a multi-billion-dollar corporate strategy built on the promise of environmentally friendly diesel technology.
