EV launches and reviews, charging infrastructure, batteries, autonomous vehicles, and the future of transportation.
The $7,500 EV tax credit is gone, but interest on a new car loan is now deductible, up to $10,000 a year, if the vehicle was assembled in the US. Here is the model-by-model eligibility list, the real dollar math, and the income limits.
Tesla just posted its best second quarter in company history and the stock had its worst day in a year. The two-year math, the US sales decline, and the Model Y L launch all tell the same story: the recovery is real, but it is not happening at home.
Australians bought more used EVs in March than dealers had listed for sale. Stock fell 38% in 30 days, leaving 28.6 days of supply. The Iran oil shock exposed the fact that Australia's used EV market never had any depth to begin with.
Tesla confirmed on its Q1 2026 earnings call that Hardware 3 cannot achieve unsupervised Full Self-Driving. Roughly 4 million cars are affected. The fix requires replacing the computer and cameras, and Tesla plans to build micro-factories to handle the volume. Meanwhile, HW4 Plus was announced in the same call, starting the same hardware obsolescence cycle over again.
The Iran war oil shock did what EV advocates always predicted: it made the world go electric. Europe's used EV enquiries jumped 28%. China's NEV share is headed to 58%. But US new EV sales fell 28% and BEV share dropped to 5.2%. America welded its own escape hatch shut.
Honda just scrapped $5.1 billion in Ohio EV infrastructure. Volvo pulled its $35,000 EX30. US BEV share has collapsed to 5.6%. The only affordable cars left burn $4 gasoline nobody can afford either.
The March 2026 Strait of Hormuz blockade exposed the fatal financial flaw of internal combustion engine ownership. Driving an ICE vehicle is operating under an adjustable-rate mortgage tied to global warfare. EVs, backed by localized grids, finally delivered the ultimate 30-year fixed-rate commute.
An in-depth analysis of how the $115 Brent Crude oil shock and looming recession won't save gas cars, but will instead trigger the extinction of legacy Western automakers who refused to vertically integrate.
Tesla killed the Model S and Model X. Used prices immediately climbed 10%. Meanwhile, 329,000 lease returns are about to flood the lot with Model 3s and Model Ys. Same brand, opposite price trajectories, same quarter. The used Tesla market is splitting in two.
The Trump administration's 100% "Buy America" mandate for EV chargers sounds patriotic. The problem? 100% domestic EV chargers do not exist. A deep dive into how a protectionist mandate is designed to freeze $5 billion in infrastructure funds.
US electric vehicle sales collapsed 40% in late 2025, sending legacy luxury automakers into a panic. But underneath the hardware recession, the infrastructure layer is experiencing an unprecedented boom driven by 5.8 million existing drivers.
The March 2026 Strait of Hormuz blockade proved a harsh reality. As global oil prices spiked toward $90 and nations faced fuel shortages, electric vehicles insulated owners from a geopolitical crisis using local grid power.
The current electric vehicle market slump is masking a much larger structural crisis in subprime auto lending. As private credit buckles under the weight of negative equity, a rare opportunity is emerging for cash buyers at wholesale auctions.
The 2026 JD Power EV Satisfaction Study crowned Tesla the king of owner happiness. But the real story is darker and more interesting: buyers are choosing a car with rattling door panels over legacy sedans whose infotainment systems crash at 70 mph. The EV wars have shifted from sheet metal to silicon, and legacy automakers are losing badly.
Canada's new EV rebate rules exclude the most efficient electric cars to subsidize union-made hybrids. It's not climate policy; it's protectionism.
On February 12, the Commerce Department finalized a combined 170% duty on Chinese battery anodes. The problem? The U.S. doesn't make any yet.
Toyota, the automotive world's loudest critic of pure electric vehicles, just confirmed the 2027 Highlander will be EV-only. Here is the regulatory math behind the capitulation.
Stellantis just wrote off $26 billion, bringing Detroit's cumulative EV losses to over $80 billion. While American automakers retreat to trucks, China sold 13 million EVs in 2025. This is not a correction. It is a surrender that will define the next century of global manufacturing.
Tesla has officially killed the 'buy once' era. With the purchase button gone as of Feb 14 and the transfer window slamming shut on March 31, billions of dollars in 'owned' software is about to evaporate. We analyze the insurance gap, the resale crash, and why this is the end of car ownership as we know it.
By cancelling the Model S and X and pledging $20 billion to AI infrastructure, Elon Musk isn't just pivoting - he is liquidating the legacy auto business to fund a high-stakes venture capital bet.
Over 300,000 off-lease electric vehicles are flooding the used car market in 2026, creating a buyer's paradise with prices dropping by thousands. Here is how to take advantage of the subsidy boomerang.
Critics have long argued that EVs just move pollution to the power plant. A new study using space-based spectroscopy proves they are wrong where it counts: your lungs.
Mainstream media headlines are flooding feeds with images of frozen EV charging stations, but the math tells a different story. By leveraging conductive heating and V2L capabilities, an electric vehicle becomes a superior survival shelter compared to an internal combustion engine, capable of sustaining life for weeks (not days). This article breaks down the contact-heat physics, the 12V battery vulnerability that threatens it, and the 'Power Plant' strategy for the prepared home.
Prime Minister Carney's deal to allow 49,000 Chinese EVs into Canada is more than a trade tweak. It is a geopolitical earthquake. By piercing the US tariff shield, Ottawa has created a 'control group' that will expose the true cost of American protectionism.
