Presenter, storyteller, and consultant helping brands and media navigate China’s electric future.

I’m Elliot Richards - exploring the cars and clean energy shaping tomorrow.

China is leading a global shift in cars, energy, and mobility. As China Correspondent for Robert Llewellyn’s Fully Charged Show, I tell the stories that matter – the EVs reshaping global markets, the battery innovations powering the transition, and the policies driving change at unprecedented scale.

I also help international brands and media navigate China’s complex EV landscape. Need market intelligence? Content that resonates? Someone who understands both the tech and the narrative? I combine on-the-ground access with 15+ years of strategic communications expertise.

Featured on the BBC, Deutsche Welle, NPR, and the FIA.
