Is Jaguar’s radical new Type 01 the start of a glorious new chapter or a massive gamble? Ginny, Nicola and Mike get stuck into the biggest EV stories of the week, including BMW’s latest electric SUV and its astonishing 500-mile-plus range.

We’re also looking ahead to the Paris Motor Show, where a host of exciting new concepts are set to steal the spotlight, and checking out Renault’s latest Espace concept.
