I interviewed John Shore, senior director of the Automotive X Prize. We had a rather long discussion in multiple parts, which I have edited together here for your listening pleasure. Briefly, here are the things we discussed:

- what he does for the team
- alternate rules they considered
- sales race
- "cradle to cradle" contest
- major automakers joining the prize
- progressive and other potential sponsors
- they are seeking more money for the prize - where would they put it?
- production intent category to reward vehicles which will be produced
- alternative class and two wheel vehicles
- towable trailers / roof racks with generators
