That comes up later on in the conversation. The engineer's a bit coy at first but is forced to give away the fact that it's been designed to allow an EV version and they'll have to electrify anyway now. I gather the downfall of the previous attempt at an EV was suppliers and battery technology, which has advanced significantly since then. The omens are better this time.
