Jan 22, 2026 · 28 min · Ep 1

Discover EV’s latest podcast dives deep into Shell’s ambitious Triple 10 Challenge, exploring how first-principles engineering could redefine the future of electric vehicles. Joined by Shell Lubricants’ energy application testing expert Toby, the episode unpacks how lightweight design, ultra-efficient aerodynamics and breakthrough immersion thermal fluids could enable 10-minute charging, 10 km per kWh efficiency and a sub-10-ton CO₂ lifecycle footprint. From tackling range anxiety and reducing reliance on oversized batteries to easing pressure on charging infrastructure and the grid, this conversation reveals why smaller, smarter, fast-charging EVs may be the key to sustainable mass-market electric mobility by 2030.
