The definitive daily read on electric mobility.

Get ready, America, because the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) just dropped a forecast that'll make your clean energy heart sing: all net new generating capacity in 2026 is projected to come from renewables and batteries! Wind and solar are already clobbering coal, and the future is looking mighty green.

Elon Musk is heading to Israel in March 2026, accepting an invitation from PM Netanyahu to discuss smart transportation and AI. This visit isn't just a handshake; it's a huge signal that Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) and Robotaxi services might be nearing regulatory approval in the Holy Land, turning Israel into a global tech leader.

Imagine grabbing a brand-new 2025 Dodge Charger R/T EV for less than half price—under $29,000! Dealers are slashing prices on these electric muscle cars, making that 'Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust' sound a little less annoying and a lot more affordable. Is this the deal of the century or just a really loud bargain?

Toyota's latest V2G pilot in Texas isn't just about charging cars; it's about transforming the entire energy ecosystem. They're making a bold claim: if all US EVs had bidirectional charging, they could collectively rival the power output of 40 nuclear reactors! Now that's what I call putting your power where your mouth is.

The world's largest-ever EV winter test just wrapped up in Inner Mongolia, putting 67 EVs through sub-zero hell. The results confirm what we always suspected: extreme cold punishes range, but some EVs are built tougher than others, with Chinese brands dominating and the Tesla Model 3 holding its own.

In a twist nobody saw coming, Waymo's advanced robotaxis are hitting a very human snag: passengers leaving doors ajar. Now, the autonomous leader is paying gig workers to literally drive around and close car doors. Turns out, even in the future, some problems are just old school.

Bad news for plug-in hybrid fans: Consumer Reports' latest survey reveals PHEVs suffer 80% more problems than conventional gas cars. While hybrids are shining, and pure EVs are getting better, these 'bridge' vehicles are causing more headaches than they're solving.

Battery giant CATL just declared that sodium-ion batteries will hit the market in a big way by late 2026, promising cheaper, safer, and better cold-weather performance. This could be the 'salt' of the earth solution we've been waiting for to diversify beyond lithium and power everything from EVs to grid storage.

Hold on to your hats, because new data out of China shows their domestic reserves of critical battery materials are running on empty. With only 14.6 years of lithium, 3.8 years of nickel, and *zero* cobalt left, this isn't just an EV story—it's a geopolitical thriller playing out on the global stage.

Tesla just dropped a bombshell, publicly releasing its Q4 2025 delivery consensus, a move almost as rare as a quiet Sunday morning. Analysts project 422,850 vehicles, signaling an unusual dip in Tesla's usually soaring trajectory. Is this strategic transparency or a pre-emptive soft landing?
