The 2027 Chevrolet Bolt returns as an affordable EV starting at $28,995, now with 150kW fast charging (10–80% in 26 mins), 210 hp, and 255-mile range. Built on the EUV platform, it offers more cargo space and updated tech, including an 11.3" touchscreen and optional Super Cruise. Three trims - LT, LT Comfort, and RS - launch in early 2026 from GM’s Kansas plant.09 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Tesla's new Model 3 and Model Y “Standard” variants, priced under $40K, offer strong range (321 miles) and core tech but cut premium features like powered seats, upgraded audio, and dual motors. The Model 3 is quicker and cheaper, ideal for commuters; the Model Y suits families. Deliveries begin late 2025. While TSLA stock dipped on launch, these models may boost volume and affordability without reinventing the platform.08 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
The FIA Extreme H World Cup debuts in Qiddiya, Saudi Arabia, with hydrogen-powered Pioneer 25 race cars competing across time trials, head-to-head duels, and a final multi-car showdown.

Seven of eight teams hail from Scandinavia, with Saudi Arabia’s Jameel Motorsport as the local challenger. The event showcases zero-emission racing and Saudi innovation under Vision 2030.08 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
A New York Times Upshot analysis finds electric vehicles are now consistently cheaper to own than gas-powered cars. Lower fuel and maintenance costs, improved battery longevity, and stronger resale values make EVs the more economical choice - even without tax credits. Comparisons across popular models like the Ford F-150 Lightning, Hyundai Ioniq 6, and Tesla Model Y show savings of $5,000–$8,000 over ten years, positioning EVs as the default financial choice for most driver.08 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
China has transformed from rural poverty to high-tech megacities in 35 years, leading the global clean energy shift with massive EV and solar output. Yet its authoritarian model - marked by surveillance and censorship - raises concerns as it enters the AI age. The West must cooperate on climate tech but compete to ensure AI develops under democratic norms, not autocratic control.

The EMEA Automotive Carbon Neutral Summit 2025 will confront the gap between ambition and execution. Automakers must scale low‑carbon technologies, decarbonize sprawling supply chains, and secure renewable energy for factories and charging networks. Executives will push for clear policy, carbon pricing, and stable investment signals. Circular economy practices and global competition add urgency. The challenge: make carbon neutrality practical, profitable, and fast enough to meet climate goals.

Scientists are developing ways to turn America's massive food waste stream into sustainable aviation fuel. Using processes like hydrothermal liquefaction, discarded scraps can be converted into biocrude and refined into jet-ready fuel. At full scale, it could replace only a fraction of U.S. daily jet fuel demand, but it would cut landfill methane and diversify supply. Major hurdles remain: costly collection, dispersed feedstock, certification, and economics compared to fossil fuel.

Wyoming's coal is being promoted as vital for powering the AI boom, but the market reality tells another story. Utilities continue retiring coal plants as cheaper wind, solar, and natural gas dominate. Lease auctions draw little interest, and even China is pairing coal with massive renewable growth. Analysts warn AI demand may be overstated, leaving coal an expensive detour. The conclusion: coal is unlikely to fuel America's AI future.

America's waves hold vast untapped energy - enough to power over half the nation's electricity needs. Yet wave power lags behind solar and wind. Devices must survive corrosive seas and violent storms, while no single design has emerged as dominant. Developers also face years of regulatory hurdles and high costs that deter investors. New test sites like Oregon's PacWave aim to prove the technology, offering hope that wave energy can finally move from promise to reality.

Three boxy EVs - BYD Racco, Nissan Sakura, and Honda Super-One - dominated the 2025 Tokyo Auto Show, each embracing Japan's kei car tradition with electric innovation. BYD eyes global markets, while Sakura and Super-One remain Japan-focused. U.S. entry would require upgrades in safety, speed, and tech. Their compact charm and urban utility signal a strategic shift in EV design - away from sleek sameness and toward character-driven mobility.
