    Is The $130 EV Fee Fair? + Driving The Volvo EX60 EV & America’s New Fastest-Charging EV

    Is the federal government about to change the cost of EV ownership? This week on the Plugged-In Podcast, Tim Levin and Mack Hogan break down the proposed $130 annual federal registration fee for electric vehicles and what it means for the future of highway funding. Mack also shares his experience behind the wheel of the Volvo EX60—a minimalist luxury SUV that might just be the most polished electric vehicle Volvo has ever built. Plus, we discuss the brand-new Mercedes-AMG GT, which has officially claimed the crown as the fastest-charging EV in America, boasting an 11-minute charge time from 10-80%.  Finally, Tim sits down with Brandt Hastings, President of North America at ABB E-Mobility, to talk about the massive shift in charging infrastructure and how ABB is meeting the demands of the next generation of EVs, trucks, and robotaxis.
