The definitive daily read on electric mobility.

Homeowners are dishing out real-world data from their solar panels, and the numbers are hotter than my stand-up! From big 11.5 kW systems pulling 1,700 kWh in a month to smaller 5 kW setups hitting 30 kWh a day, folks are seeing serious savings. With electricity prices climbing, solar isn't just green, it's gold!

Arkansas just plugged into the future with its first-ever utility-scale wind farm, the 135 MW Crossover Wind! Microsoft's buying all the clean power for 20 years, proving that even in unexpected places, the wind of change is blowing strong for renewables!

Tesla's AI and robotics divisions are facing a serious 'brain drain' as key engineers from Optimus and Autopilot teams are jumping ship to a new, stealthy startup called Sunday Robotics. This tiny company just emerged with big plans for domestic robots, and it's got Tesla talent running scared!

Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe is out here saying losing the $7,500 federal EV tax credit is actually a *win* for the company! He thinks it'll thin out the competition, especially those legacy automakers who were just doing crazy lease deals. While others retreat, Rivian sees clear road ahead!

Kia just unveiled the EV5 WKNDR concept, an electric SUV that's ready to ditch the pavement and hit the trails! With rugged bumpers, a lifted suspension, and an interior designed for adventure, this isn't just about getting groceries; it's about getting lost (and then finding your way back, electrically!).

China's GAC Group just broke the sound barrier in battery tech, firing up the first all-solid-state EV battery production line! This 'holy grail' promises to double your EV's range to over 600 miles and slash charging times. Move over, liquid electrolytes, the solids are here to party!

The CPSC just dropped a bombshell, telling Rad Power Bikes owners to stop using certain batteries immediately due to fire risk! Rad says they can't afford a full recall, caught between safety warnings, 31 reported fires, and their own financial tight spot. This ain't just a battery problem, it's a financial inferno!

Tesla's AI chip game is moving faster than a stand-up routine! The company is 'taping out' its AI5 chip design, meaning it's almost ready for production, while simultaneously starting development on AI6. Elon Musk says they're aiming for a new AI chip every year, leaving rivals in the dust!

Tesla announced FSD (Supervised) is targeting February 2026 approval in the Netherlands, potentially unlocking Europe. But the Dutch regulator, RDW, quickly clarified: 'We've got a schedule, but it ain't a guarantee!' Looks like a classic 'he said, she said' in the world of self-driving!

Tesla's Model X just got a 400-pound weight loss, and apparently, engineers were incentivized with beer for every kilogram shed! This wasn't one big diet plan, but hundreds of tiny, brilliant changes from powertrain to wiring, all to make it faster, safer, and more efficient. Who knew weight watching could be so fun?
