Overland Journal Podcast host Scott Brady and co-host Matt Scott discuss how electric vehicles are rapidly reshaping overlanding, citing EV advantages like instant torque, precise control, fewer mechanical failure points, and future innovations such as structural solid-state batteries and wheel-mounted motors. They note growing industry momentum, including Tesla’s market value, Infiniti’s upcoming EV-heavy lineup, and investments in Rivian by Ford and Amazon, while arguing many common overland routes are already feasible with today’s ranges. They acknowledge current limitations for multi-day remote travel due to charging needs, insufficient solar, and reliance on generators, but emphasize most drivers’ daily mileage and typical travel pace make EVs practical. The episode also covers Rivian, Cybertruck, Bollinger, Long Way Up’s electric travel, and the importance of keeping an open mind toward new technology.
