August sales numbers from the UK show a rosy picture for electric car sales, with BEVs being the most common powertrain and making up 30% of the market, up from 23% a year ago. The number is well ahead of the pace required to meet the UK’s current somewhat-ambitious target of 80% EV sales by 2030… so why is the UK government considering softening that target? UK’s electric vehicle targets have gone through a lot of back-and-forth over the years. They were originally set to target 100% new EV sales by 2040, but then that target was pushed forward, then…

The Mercedes EQA, Hyundai IONIQ 5, and BMW i4 hold onto their battery health better than any other electric car, according to the largest independent study of used-EV batteries ever run. That’s the ranking that falls out of 500,000-plus battery tests published by Austrian diagnostics firm AVILOO, which measured 20 popular EVs at up to 150,000 km (93,000 miles) of use. The EVs that hold their charge best AVILOO’s new AVILOO Certified EV Battery Report is built on physical measurements of the pack. For each model it calculated the median state of health (SoH) at 50,000 km, 100,000 km, and…
Just when it looked like we were about to find out what Storm Sondors has been cooking up for his return to the e-bike world, the story has taken another strange turn. Nearly two weeks ago, we broke the news on the sudden reappearance of SONDORS, with the company’s website teasing what appeared to be a new electric two-wheeler known simply as “001.” The dark teaser image offered precious few details, (with a few more available when we artificially lightened the image), but the site did give us one important piece of information: “Sept 3.” Well, September 3 has now…

Tesla’s Cybercab is already under federal investigation. NHTSA opened an audit into how Tesla certified the vehicle the same day the company started putting passengers in it in Austin. The probe targets the exact thing that makes the Cybercab unusual: it has no steering wheel, no pedals, and no mirrors, and Tesla certified it as road-legal anyway. Tesla launched the Cybercab commercially in Austin yesterday, and the event turned out to be the nothing-burger we expected. There was no livestreamed reveal, no stage presentation, and no public remarks from Elon Musk. Instead, Tesla invited a small group of shareholders and…
Americans are turning to hybrids to get away from rising gas prices. So, is there still hope for EVs? Source link
Owning a Rimac Nevera should be an extraordinary experience, but one owner recently found himself having trouble with something far more basic: getting into the car. A video shared on social media shows the owner repeatedly trying to open the Nevera’s door, but it refuses to cooperate. He makes several attempts and even tries using the key, yet the door remains shut as a few people watch the unusual situation unfold. The problem eventually appears to be resolved. Later in the video, the doors can be seen open. Apparently, the owner spoke with someone over the phone. Perhaps he contacted…
