Fiat's Tiny Topolino is Coming, Lotus Eletre goes EREV, Mercedes EV GLB: TWC Podcast 250

By The Watt Car Staff — Dec. 10, 2025

Will Fiat’s teeny tiny Topolino come Stateside? We hope so! At the same time, the market for such a unique vehicle is, shall we say, quite small. The opposite of the Topolino would be the Lotus Eletre, so we talk about that on this week’s podcast, too. We also discuss Mercedes, Lexus, and more!
