REVEALED! World's First EV Battery Bunker, The Cybertruck Gag & More!

🎙️ Welcome back to the Cars without Sausage Podcast! In this revealing & unfiltered episode, I connect with Pete Gruber, CEO of Gruber Motor Company who has created the World's First EV Battery Bunker. After years as a Tesla vehicle battery specialist and following two devastating fires, Pete and his Team have revealed the world's first EV (electric vehicle) battery bunker.
In addition, we discuss the popular Tesla Cybertruck and whether or not it's a good vehicle or if it's just a gag. We dive deeper into the company BYD (Build Your Dream) the Chinese EV (electric car manufacturer) that has surpassed Tesla in EV car sales.
Want even more insider info! We chat about the impending bankruptcy of Fisker Automotive and whether or not the new Tesla Roadster will be released in 2026.
