It’s safe to say our last episode on EVs amid the current fuel crisis sparked some lively debate.

Our last guest’s take on unreliable EVs and the possibility of brand collapses drew strong pushback.

So, today, we're flipping the script with a fresh take to tackle your top concerns head-on. EV registrations are still surging alongside hybrids and PHEVs. 
As of April 19, there were 5346 EVs registered this year, compared to 2493 at the same time last year. Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle, or PHEVs, are at an all-time high up 79% and Hybrids up 6.2%.

Today on The Front Page, AA chief mobility officer, Jonathan Sergel, is with us to break down the fact and fiction around EVs.

The new age of car buying: EVs, hybrids and the end of old myths

The Prime Minister has initiated and survived a motion of confidence as National Party leader. 

After about a three-hour caucus meeting, Christopher Luxon read a short statement out to media before leaving without taking questions. 

This all comes after weeks of speculation about whether his performance during the Iran fuel crisis mixed with poor polling would be enough to get him kicked out of the Beehive. 

So, does Luxon actually have the full support of his caucus? Will this all quieten leadership rumours? And what will it mean for the election?  

NZ Herald chief political reporter Jamie Ensor was in amongst the action all day today – he joins us now on The Front Page.

Luxon survives confidence vote, but questions remain

The Government has quietly agreed to repeal several references to Treaty principles within laws. 

The move – which wasn’t publicly announced – follows a coalition agreement to review Treaty provisions across 23 pieces of legislation.

Ministers argue the changes will bring greater clarity and consistency.

Critics warn it could strain Māori-Crown relationships even further, and could trigger legal challenges.

So, what does it all mean? And, does it echo the deeply controversial Treaty Principles Bill in any way?

Today on The Front Page, NZ Herald chief political reporter Jamie Ensor is with us to break it down.
