Why don’t Car Brands just swap out Combustion Engines with Electric Motors?

On this week’s #AutoCentral, SA’s No.1 motoring podcast, George Mienie and co-host Wandile Sishi discuss what happens when you turn your normal internal combustion engine into an electric vehicle by swapping out the engine. Lawrence Minnie joins the team to review the Volkswagen e-Golf, and compares notes with George, who also had his turn driving the all-electric e-Golf. Lastly, the team tackles your pressing motoring questions in our Ask AutoTrader section... including an explanation of how EVs work, which electrified vehicles are available in South Africa, and whether it’s a good idea to buy a used Honda hybrid.
