20 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
EnergyX and Tesla are racing to reshape lithium supply chains. Energyx's modular LiTAS™'s system extracts lithium from brine with high efficiency, while Tesla builds a $1B acid-free refinery in Texas. Smackover, AR is EnergyX's likely launch site, offering infrastructure and proximity to EV markets. Meanwhile, sodium-ion batteries emerge as a low-cost alternative, potentially disrupting lithium demand but not replacing it. The future of batteries is diversified, fast, and fiercely competitive.China's 600 Wh/kg Lithium-Metal Battery Breakthrough: Hype or Real Progress?
19 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
Chinese researchers report lithium-metal pouch cells reaching 600 Wh/kg - nearly double today's EV batteries. Published in Nature, the work uses a novel electrolyte and shows promising density but only ~100 cycles, far short of EV needs. Scaling, safety, and cost remain unproven. While credible science, it's early-stage. Current leaders like CATL, BYD, Amprius, and SES offer lower but durable densities; no one is yet close to 600 Wh/kg for real EVs.2026 Nissan LEAF: Performance Meets Value in America's Most Affordable EV

China's EV Boom Masks a Hidden Inventory Problem
15 Oct 2025 | 
China's EV market shows strong wholesale growth, but retail sales lag behind. In April 2025, the wholesale-retail ratio hit 1.27:1, signaling inventory buildup. Automakers push stock to dealers to meet targets, risking oversupply. Analysts warn this gap could lead to price wars and financial strain. Retail data offers a clearer view of consumer demand and market health.
Putting Children First: Lessons from Paris for Atlanta
15 Oct 2025 | 
Paris redesigned its streets with children in mind - wider sidewalks, less traffic, and safer zones near schools. This child-first approach improved mobility for all, including seniors and cyclists. Atlanta can learn from Paris by investing in protected bike lanes, rethinking zoning, and prioritizing equity. A city where children thrive is safer, healthier, and more connected. The shift is not just practical - it's a moral imperative.
Micromobility's Insurance Gap: What Riders Need to Know
15 Oct 2025 | 
Micromobility use is surging, but insurance coverage lags. Most auto and home policies exclude e-bikes and scooters, leaving riders exposed. Accidents are rising, and shared services often don't cover users. InsurTech firms offer on-demand solutions, but adoption is low. Riders should check existing coverage, consider standalone policies, and push for clearer regulations to close the gap and ensure safe, sustainable urban transport.
UAE's AAM Aspirations Take Flight In Ras Al Khaimah
14 Oct 2025 | 
XPeng AeroHT completed manned flight tests of its Land Aircraft Carrier in Ras Al Khaimah, UAE. The modular system combines a five-seat EV with a detachable two-seat eVTOL drone. Backed by a UAE flight permit, the tests support the country's broader strategy to lead in urban air mobility through infrastructure, regulation, and commercialization.
