"...will be moving away from hydrogen fuel cell powertrains in a major step change...the decision was down to inadequate investment in infrastructure, as well as a lack of government support."It is not the right time to push hydrogen...There is no investment in incentives and infrastructure, so we are not pushing it commercially."
"Stellantis has now adopted a multi-energy approach..We think that hybridisation is a good option."

Cox Auto showed a 60.6% increase in used EV sales in April 2025 compared to 12 months earlier... increased demand has led to renewed interest in EV battery degradation."The good news is that modern EV batteries degrade less than their predecessors on average...current rate of degradation means that they should remain at healthy levels for around 20 years on average.
The bad news is that it isn't always easy to get an accurate representation of a battery's state of health before you buy a used EV."

"Across many parts of Amish country, including Iowa, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, electric bicycles are starting to show up parked next to Amish barns"...there's no one single Amish doctrine. Each community is responsible for establishing and enforcing its own standards as it sees fit for its culture...The few Amish communities that have begun embracing electric bicycles generally charge them on locally generated solar power."

Car and Driver wants to help you better understand the differences and similarities between these two types of powertrains so you can decide which one is best for you."...Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle, a PHEV operates like a hybrid, but its battery is big enough that you can (and should) plug it in regularly...they share a core engineering philosophy and operational motif...Both are equally dependent on regenerative braking..."

A recent nanoscale physics breakthrough reveals heat can transfer across tiny gaps far more efficiently than expected - up to 100 times greater than classical predictions. This could revolutionize cooling and energy systems in electronics, EVs, and smart appliances. While engineering challenges remain, early applications may emerge within 3-5 years, with broader consumer adoption possible in the next decade. The future of heat management may be silent, solid-state, and radically efficient.

America's energy crunch is not about supply - it's about coordination. Virtual power plants and vehicle-to-grid systems offer a scalable, software-driven solution to rising demand from AI, EVs, and climate volatility. By turning homes, vehicles, and businesses into active grid assets, and aligning policy with technology, the U.S. can build a smarter, more resilient energy future without building more power plants. The tools exist - now it's time to connect them.

The 2025 Urban Science and Harris Poll report reveals a growing disconnect between dealers and buyers. While dealers embrace EVs, AI, and digital tools, many buyers remain cautious - especially about full electrification and online-only retail. Brand loyalty is weakening, and policy clarity is key to adoption. The future of auto retail depends on bridging trust, flexibility, and infrastructure gaps.

Audi's Concept C previews a refined electric GT built on the mature PPE platform, likely arriving by 2026. Chevrolet's Corvette EV promises supercar performance but faces packaging and thermal challenges. Audi is closer to production; Corvette remains in early development. Both reflect divergent strategies in electrifying legacy sports cars, with Audi emphasizing platform maturity and Chevrolet pursuing brand continuity through engineering innovation.

Despite critiques that the quest for global electrification is "simplistic", the transition is strategic and necessary. Grid upgrades, battery innovation, and tailored policies make electrification viable. Sodium-ion batteries and recycling reduce material risk. Compared to fossil fuels, electrification offers cleaner, safer, and more resilient systems. Complexity demands better design - not delay.
