Top Gear’s Boss Chat is back! We sat Christian von Koenigsegg, Mate Rimac and Rob Dickinson down to address the big issues in the auto industry (from fixing Jaguar to the future of AI) and quizzed them on everything from their favourite inventions to their most vivid car-related early memories.

And if you’ve not seen it yet, watch part one of this film, where Christian, Mate and Rob spend a day thrashing each other’s creations around the Top Gear Test Track!
