Designing EVs for Women with David Trinder

David Trinder has spent years shaping the cars we see on the road today, with a career spanning Jaguar Land Rover and McLaren Automotive, as well as EV start-up Arrival. With deep expertise in how vehicles are designed, engineered and experienced, he’s uniquely placed to unpack why so many women still feel that electric cars don’t fit into their everyday lives.
