The Tesla Model 3 recently captured the title of “most economical electric vehicle to own” in a new study performed by research firm Zutobi. Perhaps one of the biggest and most popular reasons people are switching to EVs is the cost savings. Combining home charging, lower maintenance costs , and tax credits has all enabled consumers to consider EVs as a way to save money on their daily drivers.
A California Tesla owner has filed a lawsuit that alleges the automaker sped up his vehicles odometer, causing the warranty to expire faster than it would have normally. Plaintiff Nyree Hinton said the automakers odometer readings dont reflect actual mileage, and instead rely on driving behavior, algorithms, and energy consumption to calculate mileage.
Like the industry he covers, Shawn DuBravac had already had quite a week by the time IEEE Spectrum spoke to him early last Thursday, 10 April 2025. As chief economist at IPC , the 3000-member industry association for electronics manufacturers, hes tasked with figuring out the impact of the tsunami of tariffs the United States government has planned, paused, or enacted.
To be honest, I hadn’t thought a lot about Waymo’s market share in the cities it operates in. I just figured it’s still fairly small and niche as it works hard to improve its software and hardware. However, it turns out Waymo is getting a lot more business than I. [continued] The post Waymo’s Quickly Taking More Market Share Than I Expected appeared first on CleanTechnica.
Imagine landing at JFK or LaGuardia after a fun but taxing vacation, and instead of hailing a two-hour cab ride or asking your brother-in-law to come and get you, you take to the skies in an eVTOL. Youre back on the ground in 15 minutes for a short trip back home to bed. What a time to be alive. eVTOL developer Archer Aviation is making this dream a reality alongside its business partner, United Airlines, offering travelers to NYC a new map of air taxi routes to travel to and from NYC airports.

For over 50 years now, egged on by the seeming inevitability of Moores Law , engineers have managed to double the number of transistors they can pack into the same area every two years. But while the industry was chasing logic density, an unwanted side effect became more prominent: heat. In a system-on-chip (SoC) like todays CPUs and GPUs , temperature affects performance, power consumption, and energy efficiency.

Amazon shoppers have been able to buy a Hyundai vehicle on the platform for a while now, but the service was limited to financing only. Dealers have been somewhat unhappy with the arrangement, saying Amazon needs to do more to improve their profitability, and as part of that request, the e-commerce giant is expanding its offering to lease customers.
This is a sponsored article brought to you by Amazon. The cutting edge of robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) doesnt occur just at NASA, or one of the top university labs, but instead is increasingly being developed in the warehouses of the e-commerce company Amazon. As online shopping continues to grow, companies like Amazon are pushing the boundaries of these technologies to meet consumer expectations.

Four months after sharing a first look at a new GT shooting brake variant of its all-electric 007 sedan, ZEEKR has officially launched the 7GT in China, with initial deliveries to follow in less than a week. As shown in ZEEKRs images below, this sporty GT variant was designed with several comfort features and impressive tech, including a fast-charging 800V platform and zippy acceleration.
Climate change is the greatest threat to natural landscapes, marine ecosystems, and fishing industries in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. Narragansett Bay has already warmed by nearly 3F since 1960. Sea levels off the coast of Newport have risen 10 inches since 1930 , and projections show they could rise as much as 9 feet in the next 75 years. These changes will drastically alter the fishing industry and the economy.
Tesla has doubled down on its potential launch date for the Robotaxi ride-hailing platform, which will utilize the Cybercab and other vehicles in its lineup to offer driverless rides in Austin, Texas. Tesla said earlier this year that it was in talks with the City of Austin to launch its first Robotaxi rides , and it planned to launch the platform in June.
My odometer just hit 150,218. Below explains why we still love our 2019 Model 3 after 150,000 miles and nearly 5 years. We are about to make our annual 1500-mile spring migration from Utah to northern Wisconsin and Tesla is still the only brand of EVs that can make that.

In the past few weeks, major news outlets have reported that Chinese automotive giant BYD has overtaken Tesla as the worlds largest seller of electric vehicles. While it may be true that BYD has usurped Tesla to sell more electric vehicles or generate more revenue, the idea that either is the largest EV seller in the world completely ignores a company that sells more EVs each year than both Tesla and BYD combined.
Chinese automotive giant BYD has launched its first EVs built upon the new Super e-platform. The spotlight shines on the sleek Han L sedan and the spacious Tang L SUV, both boasting jaw-dropping ultra-fast charging capabilities. The post BYD Han L sedan and Tang L SUV with ultra-fast charging go on sale in China appeared first on Electric Cars Report.
It appears that the reason the Subaru WRX STI is no longer available has to do with European emissions regulations. So, perhaps to get the STI back, it will need to be electrified? "Electrification" doesn't necessarily mean "electric vehicle" -- it could mean a hybrid. EV or not, hybrid or not, I suspect that news isn't welcome to Subie fans. But does any future STI need to be gas-only?
As I reported a couple of days ago, 19.1% of Cadillac’s USA sales were full electric vehicle sales in the 1st quarter. That’s almost one out of every five vehicles sold. In my area, I constantly see electric Cadillacs (mostly LYRIQs) and they seem to actually dominate the Cadillacs on.

A coalition of twelve environmental and clean energy organizations 1 , including Rewiring America, Acadia Center, Green Energy Consumers Alliance, Sierra Club, and Environmental Defense Fund, recently submitted a letter strongly supporting the Department of Public Utilities' (DPU) draft policy to end gas line extension allowances (LEAs)subsidies that have long encouraged new gas service connections and expansion.
Normally, the most functional and practical everyday vehicles arent the highest performing. Thankfully for the dash 3 , dashmoto was born out of a passion for high-performance engineering and was inspired by McLarens carbon fiber monocoque chassis. On top of that dashmoto applied that same high-performance engineering passion to personal mobility and crafted an entirely carbon fiber frame, resulting in a lightweight yet rigid scooter with excellent handling, and ride quality.
Red is a great color for many Italian cars, but the problem for Maserati is that it has been seeing the color more in its finances than on an exciting new car. Despite losing more than half its sales last year and seeing further declines this year, Maseratis parent company, Stellantis, says its still devoted to the brand. Maserati CEO Santo Ficili said, Stellantis confirms its commitment towards Italy, its workers, and all its brands, including Maserati.

Leapmotor is a box fresh Chinese brand on our shores, marketed by auto giant Stellantis (Jeep, Peugeot, RAM, etc.), and lands with the C10 medium SUV. Arriving as a full EV (as tested here) and a range extender hybrid , it’s the cheapest EV in its class, and roughly $10,000 under our land’s best selling Tesla Model Y. But does its cheap price – from $45,888 before on-roads – equate to decent value?
Life Without Gasoline Continues I like to drive an electric vehicle (EV) because it helps fight climate change by reducing the burning of fossil fuels. Besides their many advantages (and a few disadvantages at the moment), EVs are wonderful cars to drive and live with. Im now on my third different one in eight years, the popular Hyundai Ioniq 5. My story is likely typical of many EV drivers, who, for environmental reasons , got their first EV and then kept driving them.
In addition to space travel, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has his eye on the auto industry. Hes reportedly backing Slate Auto , an EV startup focused on building a compact electric truck for around $25,000. Details are scarce, but Newsweek connected with the company on a short teaser video posted to X. While we cant see much, the film shows a boxy body shape, round headlights, and a funky grille design.
Along with Waymo’s expansion into Tokyo, Japan, the company is continuing its robotaxi rollout in major US cities.

European regulators have decided that carbon fiber should be on a shortlist of hazardous materials and are seeking to have it banned. While the industry will presumably petition the government against instituting any official restrictions, theres always a chance the rule could come to pass shaking up the global supply chain. According to the Japanese Nikkei , the European Parliament amended a proposal to its End of Life Vehicles Directive last month.
We wrote about a regional EV charging company called Franklin’s Charging when they opened their first location in Little Rock, Arkansas.
