As EV charging infrastructure expands, lawmakers in the Kentucky legislature have introduced a bill to "protect" gas stations, local television station WKYT reports. House Bill 581 seeks to prevent zoning authorities from treating EV charging differently from gasoline dispensing. That means any location considered suitable for EV charging would.

There was a time when electric vehicles were not really taken seriously by automotive enthusiasts. After the original Tesla Roadster and the Model S, however, it became more and more difficult to ignore the fact that EVs can perform against combustion-powered cars in competitive events. By the time the Model 3 Performance came into the picture, the anti-EV narrative had already shifted to the idea that electric cars are only good for straight-line races, not the track.

There’s a loophole in the stricter IRA federal tax credit that only applies $3750 rebates on North American-built cars and separately $3750 on domestic batteries. For whatever reason, all EVs get the full $7500 applied to leases, however. So that has more people leasing EVs than ever before. The number of electric vehicle models that can be leased for less than $400/month has grown by 50% since last August.

I’ve been testing out a new headlamp called the that isn’t specifically meant for cyclists, but has proven perfect for me as a way to add both front and rear LED lighting to pretty much any helmet.

Cars replaced horses and I think horses got a better deal. Developments in technology always opens up other windows of opportunity and more options if used correctly. In a forever changing world it is good to see these robots finally coming into production where they can help out at the domestic level. Humans should be appreciated and given the credit that they are, and not valued by how much a robot they can be.

The comparison of the U9 to the acceleration of " a model with a a12 cyl. ICE " is a bit odd. Tesla's Model S plaid - a full size sedan, is quicker than this U9 sports car. If this is the quickest they can make a sports car, I understand why they're not giving acceleration specifics of its still-to-come U7 sedan - just vague "pushing the limits" verbiage.

@John Klingel In reply to John Klingel. I actually think that this is mostly on purpose. The times are changing. With an ever more competitive market, the margins to make good money on selling cars seems to simply not be there right now. At least not for many brands. Tesla and BYD might have an early mover's advantage which helps. I think NIO is on purpose developing other revenue streams in the ecosystem in parallel, which will be fed by selling cars and will strengthen the bottom line.
