About this episode
The floodgates are open following a landmark $243 million ruling against Tesla in a wrongful death suit in Florida, and now that same lawyer is thirsty for more. He's not alone, either, and America's leading EV brand seems to be dodging court issues in California and even from its own shareholders! We've got all this and more on today's ruinous episode of Quick Charge!
We've also got some killer deals on J.D Power award-winning 2026 BMW electric and plug-in hybrid models and a massive, 82 MW community solar project happening right here in Chicago.
