AutoRAI Podcast #3 | car sales 2022, Car of the Year 2023, Tesla decline and Lancia’s comeback!

January 20, 2023

Largest Lancia connoisseur in the Netherlands

Lancia has not been sold outside Italy since 2014 and for a long time seemed to be on the verge of death. But the Italian brand is coming back! The new models will all be electric, with the first coming to market in 2024. Plenty to discuss, then. We do so with none other than Wim Oude Weernink: automotive journalist for fifty years, author of the book “La Lancia” and perhaps the greatest Lancia connoisseur in the Netherlands.

Car sales, car election, EV subsidies and more

We also discuss the historically low car sales figures in the Netherlands, the most popular cars of 2022, the subsidy scheme for electric cars that has restarted, Tesla’s disappointing results and the winner of the ‘Car of the Year 2023’ election. In addition, AutoRAI editor Max Veldhuis talks about the unusual sounds heard in the electric BMW iX M60 and Bart Oostvogels explains why everyone is unfairly negative about the Fiat Multipla.
