  • Trump says he has 'no choice' but to support electric vehicles because Elon Musk 'endorsed me very strongly'

    Jump

  • I'm not looking forward to seeing Cybertrucks with Trump and MAGA flags.

  • BYD-powered Toyota Corolla PHEV could get 2100km range

    Jump

  • Finally, a car with the range to get Americans halfway to work!

  • Ford misses Q2 earnings by a wide margin as EV losses reach $2.5 billion in 2024

    Jump

  • It's hard to have sympathy when they discontinued all their small, cheap vehicles in 2019.

  • So I decided to look up the base model F150 Lightning.

    It has a 360 camera, heated 8-way adjustable power seats, light bars, whatever "Copilot360" is, a 12" touch screen, another 12" screen instead of a gauge cluster, LED steering headlights, a power frunk, and a 2.4 kW inverter.

    $65k. I don't need literally any of those features. "Base model". Lol.

  • I really feel like Ford Maverick EV and PHEV options would do great.

  • More curbside chargers on utility poles would be cool.

    I have friends who charge at work, the grocery store, or just go to a Supercharger once every few weeks. Some people find ways.

  • Apple Maps launches on the web to challenge Google Maps

    Jump

  • I'm confused, because doesn't Duckduckgo Maps already use Apple Maps?

  • Tesla earnings: Stock falls more than 8% after mixed report, lack of catalysts until October

    Jump

  • It's interesting seeing the R1S and EV9 on one end and Bolts and Leafs on the other and imagining how else Tesla could have spent that Cybertruck time and money...

  • Many Americans are still shying away from EVs despite Biden’s push, an AP-NORC/EPIC poll finds

    Jump

  • That commute should be illegal.

    I move every time I have more than a 15 minute commute. Spending that much time driving is seriously mind-boggling.

  • Why did they include someone's opinion about environmental impacts without a fact check? I hope she uses ethically sourced oil.

    Jump

  • I have a few friends with EVs who live in apartments. Some people can charge at work or while shopping. When nothing lines up, sitting at a supercharger once every few weeks isn't terrible.

  • Hyundai opens pre-orders for new Casper Electric EV starting at $23,000, $15K with rebates

    Jump

  • in Korea

    😭

  • Volkswagen ID.UNYX all-electric SUV will launch in mid-July in China

    Jump

  • compact coupe SUV

    I hate these. It's a big vehicle without better storage space. Or better visibility, because of how huge the hood is and how small the windows are. It's just big for the sake of being big.

  • Elon Musk's SpaceX contracted to destroy retired space station - BBC News

    Jump

  • I brought up Northrop because I'm guessing they bid a Cygnus derived deorbit vehicle.

  • Elon Musk's SpaceX contracted to destroy retired space station - BBC News

    Jump

  • How is this a handout? They bid for a contract and won it vs competitors.

    I'm hoping we get a source selection statement soon where they spell out why companies like Northrop and Blue didn't win.

  • Kia to build $30,000 EV3 in Mexico, unlocking US EV tax credit

    Jump

  • Between the EV3, EX30, R3, and little Jeep EV, I'm hoping that small EVs change some American minds about car size and reverse some of the arms race. They still aren't small small, but at least they aren't an F150 or Suburban.

    Jump

  • A purpose built skateboard chassis is still good for a low center of gravity, bigger battery capacity, and ease of manufacturing, but I would gladly pass on a lot of bells and whistles and "luxury" features.

  • 2024 Tesla Model 3 AWD Qualifies for $7500 USD EV Credit again.

    Jump

  • Rocket Lab, Stoke, and Relativity are all trying!

  • I'm a Blue Origin hater, too. They pretend to be an old space prime by buying their way into a market but not having done anything. They don't have the drive, efficiency, or fun redeeming qualities of startups.

    For rockets, I would rather see Stoke pull off Nova and Rocket Lab build Neutron.

    For space stations, I'm rooting for Vast and Gravitics.

    For space tugs, go Impulse.

    For moon landers, BO copied SpaceX's homework, so go Intuitive Machines and Astrobotic.
