Welcome to the Tech Latest podcast. Hosted by our tech coverage veterans, Katey Creel and Akito Tanaka, every Tuesday we will deliver the hottest trends and news from the sector. In this episode, Akito speaks with Tokyo reporter Sayumi Take about Sony and Honda's first EV sedan. The two giants hope that Afeela's strong software will provide a competitive edge but experts are cautious about the car’s 2026 debut, pointing to challenges like possible tariffs and subsidy cuts under Donald Trump.
