Nicola Hume, formerly of Auto Express and now an electric-car evangelist for YouTube channel Electrifying, has ditched her motoring journalism career to pursue a new life in breakdancing and rap.

At least, that’s the impression she’s giving in her latest review comparing the Mercedes C-Class EV with BMW’s Neue Klasse.

I should confess that I’m practising journalism here. By which I mean I’ve made the whole thing up.

Nicola isn’t abandoning motoring journalism, nor is she about to enter the charts or audition for Britain’s Got Talent. Although, judging by her wardrobe, she’s certainly dressed for the occasion.

But I reckon she could make a decent rapper. I witnessed her verbal talents at the British Grand Prix, where she was the live radio presenter for the weekend.

Her commentary was pumped around the circuit tannoy system, ensuring that absolutely nobody within earshot could escape Nicola’s extraordinary gift for talking.

And boy, can she talk. Nicola has an almost supernatural ability to produce an uninterrupted stream of words, sentences and adjectives about virtually anything.

Most of us would struggle to fill five minutes. Nicola could comfortably headline Glastonbury. Anyway, back to the cars.

It’s the usual comparison test, with two presenters bringing their contrasting personalities to the important business of discussing range, frunk capacity, interior quality, passenger space and driving dynamics.

In other words, all the usual car-review shit.

But honestly, Nicola, forget the frunk. Get yourself a microphone and a record deal. The automotive industry has enough reviewers. It could do with a decent breakdancing rapper.
