New Study Says EVs Really Are Best For The Environment
26 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
A University of Michigan cradle-to-grave study confirms EVs have lower lifetime greenhouse gas emissions than ICE vehicles, hybrids, and PHEVs. This holds true in every county in the contiguous U.S. Though EV manufacturing creates more emissions, this is offset by their efficiency during operation. For example, a loaded electric pickup emits 30% less than an empty gasoline one.Ozarks Shootout 2025: Speed, Safety, and the Rise Recreational Electric Marine Propulsion
26 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
The 2025 Lake of the Ozarks Shootout drew over 100,000 spectators and crowned Darana Hybrid's 242 mph turbine catamaran as Top Gun. While electric boats weren't in the top tier, Vision Marine's 180 hp motor remains the fastest electric entry on record. Public concerns about shock risk are unfounded—marine-rated systems use GFCIs, ELCIs, and sealed connectors to ensure safe charging and operation. Electric propulsion is gaining ground, but infrastructure and perception still lag.Mercedes-Benz eCitaro: The Electric Bus Redefining European Public Transit
26 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
The Mercedes-Benz eCitaro is a leading European electric bus, evolving from a battery-only model to include a hydrogen fuel cell range extender. This dual strategy allows for strategic deployment: battery models for short city routes and fuel cell versions for long, demanding ones. This flexibility is key to its success in helping cities transition to zero-emission public transport.Renault Races Past Hydrogen with All-Electric Alpine Flagship
26 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
Renault signals a bold pivot beyond hydrogen with Alpine's 470 hp electric 390 GTS. High hydrogen costs, poor infrastructure, and energy inefficiency drive the move toward scalable EVs. Unveiled by Renault and Alpine, the GTS blends luxury, performance, and national pride - boasting 345-mile range, premium design, and an "overtake" boost. It's a clear statement: France sees electrification as the future of high-performance mobility.Rivian CEO Says It 'Blows My Mind' That The US Auto Industry Is Reprioritizing Capital Toward Gas-Powered Vehicles
26 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe criticized continued U.S. investment in internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, calling it a strategic mistake. He argued that pouring billions into gas-powered platforms delays progress and risks falling behind global EV leaders. Scaringe emphasized that electrification is inevitable and that legacy automakers must pivot faster to remain competitive in a rapidly shifting market.

Singapore Awards Groundbreaking Contract for Level 4 Autonomous Bus Trial
12 Oct 2025 | 
Singapore's LTA has awarded a contract to MKX Technologies, MOGOX, and BYD to launch Level 4 autonomous electric buses by 2026. Six 16-seater buses will operate on Services 191 and 400, with MOGOX providing self-driving tech, BYD supplying the buses, and MKX managing the project. Safety operators will be onboard initially. The trial supports Singapore’s smart mobility goals and could expand to 100–150 buses if successful.
Sun vs. Sagebrush: Nevada's Solar Boom Meets Its Wild Heart
12 Oct 2025 | 
Nevada's Esmeralda 7 solar project was canceled amid ecological concerns and political pushback. Conservationists opposed its scale and impact on desert wildlife and cultural sites. The Trump administration halted its review, citing regulatory burdens. Though 12 million acres are solar-designated, only 20,000 are developed. Advocates urge smarter siting, wildlife corridors, and use of degraded lands to balance clean energy goals with wilderness protection.
EV Alarmism: Common EV Issues Article Analysis
12 Oct 2025 | 
The GoBankingRates article highlights real EV concerns - battery costs, charging issues, part shortages, and recalls - but overstates their frequency and impact. Most problems are rare, covered under warranty, or brand-specific. Charging and battery failures are uncommon, and recalls affect gas cars too. The article lacks comparative data and context, making its claims seem more alarming than typical EV ownership realities.
Rivian's Infotainment Revolution: AI at the Wheel, No Smartphone Required
11 Oct 2025 | 
Rivian's infotainment system replaces CarPlay with a native AI-powered interface backed by Amazon and Volkswagen. It offers smart navigation, voice control, music/video streaming, and cloud-based personalization. AM radio is excluded, prompting bipartisan legislation to mandate its return. Autonomous driving integration is planned, with updates rolling out in 2025 and full features expected in the R2 by 2026.
