    Lynn Calder - CEO of INEOS Autotmotive

    Lynn Calder had no automotive history in her resume when she became CEO of INEOS Automotive, but that hasn't stopped the company from becoming one of the hottest things in recent years. Their rugged retro-styled SUV is now sold in 50 countries, filling a hole left by most of the OEMs. In this episode we ask how she got the job; what's in her garage; the reason the company was created; why the Grenadier has been so popular; the challenges that come with launching a new car company; the future of EVs and hybrids; and what's next.
