Elon Musk Is Lying About Tesla's Self-Driving And I Have The DMs To Prove It
17 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Electrek's Fred Lambert reveals DMs showing Elon Musk once admitted radar could enhance Tesla’s vision-based self-driving - contradicting his current claims that radar and lidar reduce safety. Despite Musk's push for a camera-only system, rivals like Waymo use sensor fusion and operate rider-only robotaxis. The article argues Tesla's vision-only approach stems from internal limitations, not superior safety.Dacia's Wild-Looking Ultracompact Hipster EV Concept
17 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Dacia's Hipster EV concept is a minimalist, ultra-affordable electric vehicle designed as a modern "people’s car." With a boxy, overhang-free design, strap door handles, and bench seating, it emphasizes simplicity, cost-cutting, and charm. Built to near-production standards, it features clever design touches like integrated rear lights and openwork headrests. If produced, it could launch under $20,000, targeting urban drivers seeking practicality and personality.SAIC's MG4 Leads World in Deployment of Semi-Solid-State Battery
17 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
China's SAIC MG has launched the MG4, the first mass-produced EV with a semi-solid-state battery using manganese-based lithium-ion chemistry. This breakthrough offers higher energy density, improved safety, and environmental benefits over traditional LFP batteries. Approved for sale in China, the MG4 signals a major leap in EV tech - underscoring China's lead in battery innovation and cost-effective electric mobilityLiquid Air Could Be the Clean Energy Storage Breakthrough the Planet Needs
16 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Liquid air energy storage (LAES) cools and compresses air into a liquid, storing renewable energy for later use. It's scalable, low-impact, and ideal for balancing intermittent sources like wind and solar. When demand rises, the liquid air is warmed, expands, and drives turbines to generate electricity. LAES could be a breakthrough for clean energy storage with 50-70% efficiency, offering long-duration capacity without geographic limits or toxic materials.Toyota's Chairman Said That EVs Pollute More Than Hybrids Do, So Here's What Research Says
16 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Toyota Chairman Akio Toyoda claims EVs pollute more than hybrids due to battery production and Japan's fossil-fuel-heavy grid. Researchers counter that EVs offset their higher initial emissions after 20,000-28,000 miles and outperform hybrids long-term - even on coal-heavy grids. Studies show EVs emit less CO2 per mile and will improve further with battery recycling.

The Uncomfortable Truth Behind Our Push For Clean Tech
27 Oct 2025 | 
China's rare earth export controls are forcing the West to reshore toxic industries once outsourced. Mining and refining rare earths - essential for EVs and defense - carry major environmental risks. Projects in Nebraska and Wyoming face local opposition over health and pollution concerns. The West must now balance its need for green tech materials with the challenge of minimizing environmental and public health impacts at home. Clean energy, it turns out, has a dirty supply chain.
Toyota Century: Electrified Prestige and Philosophical Pivot
27 Oct 2025 | 
Toyota's Century project marks a bold leap into ultra-luxury EV territory, challenging Rolls-Royce, Bentley, and Cadillac with Japanese craftsmanship and electrified ambition. Once a domestic icon, the Century now signals Toyota's intent to globalize prestige mobility - quietly, deliberately, and with high-voltage precision.
Unlocking Heat's Hidden Potential: How a Nanoscale Discovery Could Transform Everyday Tech
24 Oct 2025 | 
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.
Turning the Energy Crunch into a Smart Grid Revolution
24 Oct 2025 | 
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.
Auto Retail in 2025: Bridging the Trust Gap Between Dealers and Buyers
24 Oct 2025 | 
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.
