"The first batch of countries includes Turkiye, Jordan, Hungary, Brazil, Egypt, the Philippines, Tunisia and Bangladesh.
"The EV maker is assembling both its Air and Gravity models at the facility in King Abdullah Economic City."

"...we actually only have to get to 4M new EV sales per year nationally before the number of gas cars begins its inexorable decline. That's because 16M - 12M cars = 4M. Once EVs surpass that number, there will be fewer gas cars."

Scholten has already built three functional proof-of-concept prototypes, two of which utilized ZF75/7 electric drivetrains made by Zero Motorcycles...One charge of the 10- to 12-kWh lithium battery pack should be good for a range of 100 to 140 miles (161 to 225 km)..."

If policy and investment continue at pace, the IEA expects 5 to 8 million barrels/day of oil demand could be erased by 2030. Nearly 40% of new cars globally may be electric by that time."
23 Oct 2025 | 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.
23 Oct 2025 | 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.
23 Oct 2025 | A recent BGR article overstates EV tire costs and ignores fuel savings, regenerative braking, and tire tech advances. Most EV drivers spend ~$2,100–$2,700 on tires over 100,000 miles - not $3,600. EVs save thousands in fuel and benefit from smoother wear profiles. Brands like Goodyear and Michelin now offer EV-specific tires with longer life and better efficiency. The article lacks context and deserves correction.
23 Oct 2025 | Toyota's "1 EV = 90 hybrids" logic reflects lithium scarcity, but sodium-ion batteries challenge that premise. Sodium offers low-cost, abundant chemistry for short-range EVs, decoupling electrification from lithium dependence. National policy shapes adoption: Europe favors full EVs, the U.S. subsidizes hybrids, and emerging markets seek pragmatic solutions. The battery divide is not just technical - it's strategic, reshaping the future of mobility.
22 Oct 2025 | Irizar has launched two new electric buses - the ie bus and i3 Normal Floor - with over 450 km range, advanced safety systems, and modular lithium-ion batteries. The Spanish manufacturer has delivered over 1,000 electric buses globally since 2014. The new models are lighter, seat up to 53 passengers, and meet European safety and cybersecurity standards. With deployments in Europe, Latin America, and Oceania, Irizar is positioned as a global leader in zero-emission transit.
