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..."
Tesla Owner and Arbitration Attorney Details Legal Strategy Behind Full Self-Driving Refund
09 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
"In June 2021, my wife and I purchased our third Tesla - a 2021 Model Y....The promise of a car that could drive my wife around gave us hope that she'd maintain independence as her motor skills declined. We paid an extra $10,000 for FSD....shortly after delivery, it became obvious we paid ten grand for features Tesla would not or could not deliver...this was a material breach of contract."After 60 days passed with no response, we filed a demand with the American Arbitration Association... as Tesla's agreement required."
Renewable-Powered Battery Swaps: Unlocking Ship Electrification At Global Canals
08 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
Maersk McKinney Moller Institute...study rightly concluded that battery-powered ships are not only viable but increasingly competitive...Ships traveling thousands of kilometers across oceans could theoretically reduce onboard battery storage if intermediate charging facilities existed."...ships traveling trans-Pacific routes from China to North America might recharge near the Aleutian Islands...

The Real Cost of Clinging to Fossil Fuels
13 Oct 2025 | 
The Las Vegas Review-Journal editorial warns of rising costs from clean energy, but critics argue renewables are now cheaper than fossil fuels. Infrastructure upgrades and legacy fuel contracts - not solar or wind - drive higher bills. Fossil fuels carry hidden costs like pollution and health impacts. Clean energy investments are transitional and necessary. The real challenge is managing the shift, not avoiding it. Clinging to fossil fuels is costlier long-term.
Harnessing the Wind: Rotor Sails on Scandinavian Ferries
13 Oct 2025 | 
Scandlines ferries use rotor sails - spinning cylinders that harness the Magnus effect to generate lift and reduce fuel use. Most effective in crosswinds, the rotors spin to face the wind and produce forward thrust. Modern versions use lightweight composites and electric motors powered by hybrid systems. Though ineffective in headwinds, they switch to engine power, avoiding stall. Fuel savings reach up to 20%, aiding Scandlines' goal of emission-free operations by 2040.
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.
