Welcome to Overdrive, a program that pontificates on issues to do with motoring and transport.
This audio file features a full program. Other extended segments of the program, including the road test and panel discussion are also available on this website.
In this program we take a look at the following news stories from around the world:
- GM rolling out three-cylinder engines over next 3 years
- A new utility does very poorly in crash tests
- Mercedes-Benz new Coupe can turn like a motorbike (sort of) and
- California launches the country’s first all-electric school bus
In local news, we discuss with Mitsubishi their new plug-in hybrid electric vehicle the PHEV (but please don’t call it the ‘fev’) and we road test the awkwardly named KIA pro_cee’d GT.
Our panel discussion with Brian Smith and Errol Smith discusses unusual motoring and transport subjects including news of the “Back to the Future” hover-board, a lady buys a new car for one anti-social activity and a turtle gets new wheels.
