In the latest installment of Autocar's hit podcast, hosts Steve Cropley and Matt Prior dive into the world of automotive leadership and creativity. They discuss the recent remarks made by Stellantis’s CEO, who didn’t hold back in criticizing what he calls ‘zealot legislators’—a bold stance that’s sure to spark debate. But here's where it gets controversial: Is this a fair assessment, or is the industry simply resisting necessary change? We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments below.
Cropley also shares an inspiring story about Jony Ive, the legendary designer known for his work at Apple and now Ferrari. Did you know there was a pivotal moment when someone encouraged Ive not to give up on his design dreams? This behind-the-scenes glimpse highlights the human side of innovation. And this is the part most people miss: How much does personal encouragement shape the future of design? Let us know what you think!
Prior weighs in on Ive’s latest masterpiece—the new Ferrari interior—offering his expert take on whether it lives up to the hype. Meanwhile, Cropley celebrates a special anniversary, adding a touch of nostalgia to the episode. But that’s not all—they also tackle listener correspondence and tease next week’s exclusive interview with none other than Jeremy Clarkson. You won’t want to miss that!
