Honda is more American than Ford, Tesla still 3/10, Jeep deals, and Fisker goes under

Quick Charge

On today's Quick Charge, it's a tale of two CEOs – one getting a $56 billion payday while the other one pulls the plug on his namesake company for the third time. Also: the Honda Ridgeline is the most American pickup you can buy, Jeep's new EV is already getting a price cut, Hyundai's building IONIQ 5s in Georgia, eVTOLs, and all the federal EV incentives you can get.

See if you can spot that bald eagle cry every time we talk about American-made Honda pickups, and let us know what you think a kilometer is in the comments. (PS: don't click on that)
