Charted: Global EV Adoption (2019 vs. 2025)
24 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
Global sales of electrified vehicles (EVs) soared from just 9% of the market in 2019 to 43% in the first quarter of 2025. This dramatic increase is largely propelled by China, which accounts for 57% of global battery-electric vehicle registrations. Consequently, the market share of traditional combustion engine vehicles has fallen from 91.2% to 56.7% in the same period, highlighting a rapid shift in consumer preference toward electric and hybrid options.Electric Vehicle Taxes by State, 2025
24 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
As EV adoption grows, states face declining gas tax revenue and are responding with varied policies. Forty states now impose higher annual registration fees on EVs - ranging from $50 to $260 - to offset lost fuel taxes. Seventeen states offer purchase incentives, while some also tax EV charging. A few states have launched per-mile VMT programs to better link road use to funding. The landscape reflects tension between promoting EVs and maintaining infrastructure budgetsHow to Use Your EV as a Home Backup Power Source
23 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
EVs can serve as emergency power sources during outages. While the 12V auxiliary battery offers limited backup for small devices, bidirectional EVs (like the F-150 Lightning or Kia EV9) can power homes for hours or days. Non-bidirectional models require complex retrofits. Home batteries remain the most reliable option. Choosing the right setup depends on your energy needs and vehicle capabilities.China EV Crossroads: Investor Optimism vs. Industry Fragility
23 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
Chinese EV makers like Nio and XPeng face a paradox. Stocks are rising as investors bet on innovation, yet fundamentals look fragile. Reports show unsold inventory piling up, delayed supplier payments exceeding 200 days, and dependence on subsidies and debt. Optimism reflects faith in long-term growth, but sustainability hinges on converting production into real demand.Cadillac's Elevated Velocity Concept Signals GM's Electric Ambitions
22 Aug 2025 | Synopsis

EV Depreciation: A Temporary Dip, Not a Long-Term Trend
20 Oct 2025 | 
EV depreciation concerns are real but overstated. Fleet failures and battery uncertainty skew resale data, yet modern EVs show strong longevity and lower operating costs. Automakers now offer battery health reports, extended warranties, and OTA updates to boost confidence. Policy support and LFP chemistry further stabilize value. As transparency improves, EVs will redefine long-term worth - not just match it.
Horse Powertrain: The Hybrid Trojan Horse
17 Oct 2025 | 
Horse Powertrain, a joint venture by Renault, Geely, and Aramco, offers compact hybrid engines like the C1 to retrofit EV platforms. Designed as range extenders, these engines run on multiple fuels and meet Euro 7 standards. Though marketed as green tech, their real-world impact is debated - especially as studies show PHEVs are rarely charged. Horse may be a transitional solution, but 500-mile EVs are poised to dominate long-term.
Sticker Shock and Stagnant Pay: Why New Cars Are Slipping Out of Reach
17 Oct 2025 | 
New car prices have outpaced wage growth, making ownership increasingly unaffordable. Even Ford's $30K EV pickup and other sub-$30K models may remain out of reach for many without incentives or financing reform. With monthly payments rising and federal credits phasing out, the affordability gap is reshaping the auto market. Shared mobility and micro-EVs may offer alternatives, but structural change is needed to restore access.
Toyota FT-Me: Shared Mobility Concept with Big Implications
17 Oct 2025 | 
Toyota's FT-Me is a two-seat electric microcar designed for shared urban mobility, not just teens. Developed with UK government support, it features hand-only controls, solar panels, and a lightweight frame. Aimed at car clubs and last-mile use, it could offer affordable, accessible transport with low emissions. With steady utilization and supportive policy, FT-Me may become a viable, sustainable option in the UK's evolving mobility landscape.
Creative Destruction vs. Fossil Retrenchment: Why Project 2025 Risks Leaving America Behind
16 Oct 2025 | 
Project 2025 protects fossil fuel incumbents by dismantling Biden-era clean energy policies. Nobel economist Philippe Aghion argues that climate progress depends on creative destruction - letting green innovators outcompete legacy polluters. The U.S. risks falling behind as global markets embrace clean tech. Even its passport has slipped from the top 10. Innovation, not retrenchment, is the path forward
