Secret's Oat for nourishing your

2:04

sensitive skin. Start each

2:06

day with Aveeno's daily moisturizing body wash

2:08

in the shower, which gently cleanses and

2:10

doesn't dry out your skin. Then

slather on the daily moisturizing body

2:15

lotion for 24 hours

powerful combo gives you two times the

2:21

moisture in two easy steps thanks

2:31

EV news briefly for Friday 19th of April. Everything you

2:33

2:42

Motors launches their new bi-directional chargers

2:44

for home energy management, otherwise known

2:46

as V2H or vehicle to home.

2:48

This is not vehicle to grid,

2:50

which requires an extra layer of

2:53

integration. First used on the Chevy

2:55

Silverado EV RST first

2:57

edition vehicles. The bundle is $7,300 for

2:59

your power

3:02

shift charger and the home vehicle

3:04

to home kit as well installed

3:06

by Q Merit. Of course it

3:08

depends on your personal situation and

3:10

your specifics, but finally catching

3:13

up with the likes of Ford

3:15

and Tesla who now do this as well

3:17

with a Cybertruck to be able to use

3:19

your vehicle for power transfer. Well

3:21

Tritium, the Australian firm specializing in

3:23

DC fast charging, has called in

3:26

the administrators and declared insolvency, one

3:28

of the longest running DC fast

3:30

charging makers. My mind

3:32

immediately turns to how the administrators have

3:34

that business as an ongoing concern, particularly

3:37

to maintain the 13, 14,000 chargers, the

3:39

hardware that's in the ground that you

3:41

and I might be

3:46

using. Kia sets a new

3:48

record in global EV sales last month, while

3:51

some car makers are throwing their hands in the

3:53

air and saying nobody wants an EV anymore. Well

3:55

it turns out the South Korean customers, their

3:58

customers all around the world, particularly

4:00

want Hyundai's and Kia's and cars

4:03

like the EV6, the EV9, the

4:05

Niro, the Sol,

4:07

Nkari, got the bingo and the Ray

4:10

all selling really well with

4:12

Kia's total sales volume 7% now

4:14

EV. The Tesla Model 3

4:16

performance upgrade could have leaked

4:19

online it was claimed that the

4:21

UK Tesla website source code revealed it so I had

4:23

a look for myself and yeah I mean fair enough

4:25

I found it on the Model 3 order page

4:29

the it's not called ludicrous it's called

4:31

Tesla Model 3 performance it

4:33

talks about the new adaptive

4:36

suspension talks about track mode

4:38

v3 the new seats inside it

4:40

as well it talks about the 060 time

4:43

in parentheses time

4:46

you know it didn't have the specifics inside

4:48

that container so there's not much I can

4:50

tell you in terms of the hard numbers

4:52

but I certainly saw for myself now is

4:54

that real will the vehicle be called ludicrous

4:56

is are they leading us up the garden

4:58

path is this a placeholder

5:01

for something else and this text which was all

5:03

written with you know Z's not S's so the

5:05

words or you know standard eyes

5:07

with a Z as it were so it wasn't written by an English necessarily

5:10

stylized person where

5:13

has this is it boilerplate text where's it come from

5:15

we don't know but I thought it's interesting to have

5:17

a look at on the show today could indicate that

5:19

the Model 3 performance won't be called ludicrous and it

5:22

could be launching soon Xiaomi's

5:24

first EV the SU7

5:27

is being talked about by the CEO Lai Xun

5:29

and he says that the car

5:31

is selling up to

5:33

five times higher than their internal projections and

5:35

they are going to lose money on every

5:37

vehicle they make at the beginning but

5:40

analysts saying that Xiaomi's prowess in

5:42

technological manufacturing from the mobile phone

5:44

world will stand them in good

5:46

stead Mexico is withdrawing any incentives

5:48

for Chinese EV companies many people

5:50

including myself have long talked about

5:52

how Mexico could have been a

5:55

backdoor into the United States

5:58

BYD saying that

6:00

they will build a facility in Mexico to

6:02

build EVs, but only for the local market,

6:04

of course, you understand, never to be sold

6:06

in America. But in the

6:08

USA, I remain skeptical

6:10

of those claims. And now, under

6:13

pressure from the US, Mexico withdrawing any

6:15

incentives so that they can't be

6:18

used as a gateway. EVs save

6:20

up to $2,200 every single year. According

6:24

to this new calculator on the US Department of Energy's

6:26

website, if you'd like to try it, you can pop

6:28

your details in and it'll tell you how much

6:30

money you would save by going EV. And

6:33

a shortage of EV mechanics and a long

6:36

wait for parts is driving up insurance premiums

6:38

with some EVs with minor damage even being

6:40

written off by insurance companies. And that's briefly.

7:18

Even though LASIK isn't covered by

7:20

medical insurance, there are plenty of

7:22

ways to maximize your resources. For

7:24

instance, using your tax refund is

7:26

a great way to pay. And

7:28

remember, those funds accruing in your

7:30

health savings and flexible spending accounts,

7:32

those can be used towards LASIK

7:34

too. The experts at revision, LASIK,

7:36

7:38

your dreams of clear vision and

7:40

affordable reality. Go to revisionize.com to

schedule your consultation. This

7:48

year's tax refund is your ticket

7:50

7:56
