It will be interesting to see how this plays out: https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/fate-rivian-6-6-billion-174558360.html

No idea whether this is another of those battery "breakthroughs" that never make it to market, but this does seem interesting: https://www.scmp.com/news/china/science/article/3298762/chinese-scientists-develop-injection-make-smartphone-and-ev-batteries-last-longer

When I got home from errands today the charge port door on our Air would not respond to the button on the Glass Cockpit. Nor would it respond to manual pressure on the bottom of the door. I then opened the frunk to use the manual release, and it would not open the door. After several more...

A friend was coming out of his VW ID.4 lease, and we took him today to pick up the somewhat smaller Volvo EX30 EV that is replacing it. A handsome and sprightly little CUV: While there we got a chance to check out and sit in an EX90 EV SUV which I was thinking might be the only alternative...

The Honda-Nissan merger has hit a snag, possibly killing the deal. And Tesla sales in Europe, already shrinking throughout last year, are in free fall so far this year: Germany: down 59% France: down 63% Norway: down 44% Sweden: down 38% Netherlands: down 42% UK: down 12% (with overall...

About 12% of Canadian car sales are EVs, compared to about 10% in the U.S. The Canadian government imposed a 25% tariff today on imports of U.S.-sourced goods along with a call for Canadians to eschew U.S. products wherever possible. I wonder what effect the Canadian tariffs will have on the...

Tom Moloughney posted a video with some information I've never seen before. Emad Dlala of Lucid says their data from the Lucid fleet indicates that frequent DC fast charging can actually improve the health and life of Lucid battery packs, as does a mix of DCFC and Level 2 AC charging. As...

I have noticed a lot of changes made to my recent draft posts that I have had to correct before posting or edit after posting (and some I have missed because of the short edit window). They are not typos similar to what I typed or switches of similar words (such as "it's/its" or "you're/your or...

Is this a Gravity destined for a customer or for some other venue? I thought I heard somewhere that the first deliveries were going to be made in Arizona, maybe at or near the factory? You can see a white Gravity sitting next to a car carrier at around 2:35 in this flyover video:

Shaquille O'Neal had his Air modified to fit his 7'1" frame:

"Industry Week" just published an absolutely bizarre article premised on the notion that Lucid and Faraday Future are playing to the same market and should be compared to each other in that context. It even managed to suggest that Faraday's selling of just 2 cars in Q3 was on track after a...

If you have or will be ordering a Gravity and it were available in 5-, 6-, or 7-passenger configuration, which would you order?

Gravity orders opened this morning, and there are still no reports of test drives by the press. This suggests either that Lucid did not provide release candidate vehicles to the press as they did with the Air prior to its launch, or that the press is under an embargo that was not lifted with...

As I write this, the countdown clock on the forum is showing 1 day and 00:38.59 on the countdown, but it's 10:21 a.m. EST here. That indicates orders will open tomorrow at 11:00 a.m. EST. I thought they were opening at noon EST (9:00 a.m. PST). Am I confused, or did something change?

Is it just me, or are brands once noted for style and elegance turning out uglier and uglier cars? This is from the main page of the Bentley website. Not since the Mercedes Maybach Night Edition have I seen a pimpmobile this cheesy:
