The new Kia EV3 is essentially an upgraded version of the now-retired Niro EV, and it’s about $10,000 cheaper.

Santa Monica, California’s public Big Blue Bus fleet is getting 130 DC fast-charging ports as it works toward building an entirely electric fleet by 2032.

BYD announced that it has already installed 10,000 of its 1.5 megawatt “flash charging” stations, despite only starting earlier this year. The number puts it halfway to its lofty goal of 20,000 stations by year’s end – and just about on pace to hit it.

The bZ5 is about the size of a Tesla Model Y and much more high-tech than Toyota vehicles we are used to.

A Tesla running the latest version of “Full Self-Driving” failed to stop at an active railroad crossing this week and nearly drove straight into a passing train, according to the driver and as evidenced in dashcam footage.

The kicker: it was running FSD v14.3.7, the newest build Tesla has released — and it’s at least the third time this year that Electrek has documented FSD trying to drive a Tesla into a train.

Leading today’s Green Deals is the Segway Navimow Labor Day robot sale, with offers like the advanced X430 Robotic Lawn Mower down at its second-lowest $2,249 price, among others starting from $669. We also have the EcoFlow August Monthly Madness flash sale with three power...

Aptera’s solar electric vehicle can pull more than 4 kWh of usable energy out of the sun in a single day, and now an independent testing house has put its name on the number.

TÜV Rheinland, the 150-year-old German testing and certification firm, ran three days of on-site solar measurements at Aptera’s Carlsbad, California headquarters and confirmed the car generated 4.23 to 4.75 kWh per day, enough for roughly 42 to 47 miles of driving on sunlight alone.

With global orders for the new iX3 near 100,000, BMW dealers in China are reportedly overwhelmed by demand, with tens of thousands of pre-orders coming in in less than a week after it went on sale.

Waymo published a list of “10 AI lessons” from driving more than 200 million fully autonomous miles, and several of them read as a direct rebuke of Tesla’s self-driving strategy — without ever naming Tesla.

The sharpest: trying to turn a driver-assist system into full autonomy is a “false summit,” according to Waymo. That’s exactly what Tesla is attempting with Full Self-Driving.

Just when you thought the SONDORS story was over, Storm Sondors appears to be mounting another comeback.

The entrepreneur behind one of the most influential – and eventually most controversial – electric bike companies in the US has resurfaced with a mysterious new two-wheeler being teased on the SONDORS website.

96 electric terminal trucks from Orange EV, 34 electric rubber-tired gantry cranes from Konecranes, and massive investments in modernization and workforce development – and that’s just part of what APM Terminals Elizabeth is bringing to the Port of New York and New Jersey.

London police have apparently decided that if you can’t beat them, join them – or at least get yourself the same electric bike.

Nearly two weeks after a summer derecho knocked out power, tens of thousands of people in Gary, Indiana were still without power, with many taking to social media to highlight the reality of living through a prolonged blackout. While the utility made excuses, the data centers that powered the community’s social media presence were humming along, built on a very different assumption: that the power MUST stay on.

And, if you tilted your head just so, that humming might have sounded like a warning.

The GV90 is peak SUV luxury, complete with lavish features, coach doors, and every bell and whistle. Genesis is growing faster than any luxury marque to date, but this is just the start.

Voltpost made its name turning lampposts into EV chargers. Now it wants to hang them from garage ceilings and bolt them to apartment-building walls.

We’ve got two flash sales leading our midweek Green Deals, starting with Bluetti’s 72-hour flash sale with up to $701 savings on six power station alternator charger bundles starting from $629, as well as a solo deal below it for the brand’s 288Wh Elite 30 V2 Portable Power...

Tesla owners used to hide the fact that they were abusing Full Self-Driving. Now they film it, add a caption, and post it for the algorithm.

Sleeping at highway speed, gaming with a controller, watching live TV, answering emails on a laptop — a whole genre of “look what my Tesla lets me get away with” content has taken over Instagram, TikTok, and X, and almost every clip in it shows a driver doing something that is flatly illegal in the country where it was filmed.

Bafang has never exactly been known for building timid e-bike motors, but its latest pair of high-performance e-MTB drives takes things to a whole new level. We’re talking up to 1,700 watts of peak power, 150 Nm of torque, and 800% pedal assistance.

At that point, “pedal assist” is starting to do some pretty heavy lifting as a phrase.

Hyundai Motor Company, including Genesis, is about to get very busy, with plans to launch more than 100 new or updated vehicles by 2030, including its first extended-range EVs (EREVs).

Tesla’s residential solar business has been shrinking for most of a decade, ever since the company absorbed SolarCity in 2016. Now, with electricity rates climbing across the US, Tesla is trying to revive it around a new in-house solar panel and Powerwall 3 — while quietly retiring the product it was once best known for.

Earlier this month, Tesla discontinued its Solar Roof, the glass solar tile it launched in 2016. It was always a tiny piece of the business, and its end says more about where Tesla solar is going than where it’s been.

Tesla is denying rumors that it has pulled its “Full Self-Driving” team out of China, saying its Shanghai data center is “operating normally” and that it has even reported the claims to police.

The denial comes as China remains conspicuously absent from Tesla’s own list of markets where customers can subscribe to FSD because of the regulatory limbo the driver assist system faces.

A group of Chicago business leaders have announced plan to launch what they’re calling, “the first airport express train in the US.” The O’Hare Flyer is a fully electric train that will offer non-stop rides between downtown Chicago and America’s busiest airfield.

BYD is preparing to launch a new electric hatch, positioned between the Dolphin and Seagull (Dolphin Surf) in terms of size.

Dreame is no longer planning to build the electric hypercar it unveiled in April, which it had said would have solid rocket boosters to achieve 0-60mph in 0.9 seconds. It’s also shuttering the rest of its car-related ambitions.

A tiny new sensor from Texas Instruments (TI) could help future EVs squeeze more range from their batteries while delivering smoother acceleration and less motor noise.

Leading our Tuesday Green Deals is the newly launched EcoFlow Labor Day Sale with up to 58% power station discounts starting from $169 for the rest of August. Right behind that, we’re shining a spotlight on Aventon’s Aventure 3 Smart All-Terrain e-bike down at $1,799 in the...

The developers behind the new Dubai VDX project are calling it the world’s first purpose-built commercial vertiport – and after receiving a green light from regulators the vertiport is ready to get started.

When it comes to public EV charging, more plugs may matter a whole lot more than bigger power numbers, according to new North American data from Kempower.

Mercedes-Benz CEO Ola Källenius, a self-described “petrol head” who once ran AMG, says driving an electric AMG with a simulated V8 turned him into “a born-again Christian.”

The comments, made in a new interview, are Mercedes’ clearest pitch yet that enthusiasts, not just early adopters, are supposed to love its next wave of EVs.

One of the most common questions I get from readers isn’t just about speed or range anymore. Increasingly, I’m hearing more questions about battery safety.

People see the occasional viral video of an e-bike battery fire and wonder if they should be worried about charging their battery in the garage, apartment, or workshop. The reality is that quality lithium-ion batteries from reputable manufacturers are remarkably safe, but when failures do occur, they can be dramatic enough that many riders want an extra layer of protection.

That’s where products like Yolin’s lithium-ion battery charging cabinet come in. I recently spent some time testing the cabinet, and while I admittedly wasn’t sure what to expect going in, I came away more impressed than I anticipated.
