French startup Cixi has unveiled the Vigoz, a lightweight electric car that reaches 75 mph and features bicycle pedals to supplement battery charging. While pedaling alone won't fully power the vehicle, it adds a unique human-electric hybrid experience. Designed for urban mobility, the Vigoz blends EV tech with fitness. Cixi has released video footage and technical specs confirming it's a working prototype - not just a concept.27 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
The Trump administration has halted offshore wind projects, revoked permits, and redirected funding to fossil fuel infrastructure, citing energy reliability. Surprisingly, some fossil fuel executives oppose the move, warning it undermines investment stability and shared infrastructure. The rollback threatens jobs, climate goals, and U.S. competitiveness, prompting a broad coalition to call for balanced, future-ready energy policy.26 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Lucid has delivered its first Gravity robotaxi to Nuro, marking a key step in autonomous EV deployment. The vehicle will join Uber's fleet, blending Lucid’s luxury EV design with Nuro's self-driving tech. Nuro, known for its compact autonomous delivery vehicles, is expanding into passenger transport. This collaboration aims to accelerate commercial robotaxi services by combining premium electric mobility with advanced AI-driven autonomy.26 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Leapmotor has produced its one-millionth EV, marking a major milestone in its global growth. Backed by Stellantis, the Chinese automaker is rapidly expanding across Europe with over 600 sales and service points. Models like the T03 and C10 are now available in Ireland, Bulgaria, and Central Europe. The partnership with Stellantis enables Leapmotor to scale manufacturing and distribution, positioning it as a rising force in affordable electric mobility.26 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Morocco will export solar energy to Germany via a 4,800 km undersea cable called Sila Atlantik, delivering up to 26 TWh annually. The cable will run along the Atlantic coast, passing through Portuguese, Spanish, French, Belgian, and Dutch waters before reaching Germany. The project, backed by E.ON and Uniper, is estimated to cost between €40 billion, with developers seeking government guarantees to support this massive clean energy infrastructure.

COP30 will spotlight renewable electricity, but a recent op-ed by Ronald Stein and Yoshihiro Muronaka warns that wind and solar cannot replace the fossil-derived materials essential to modern life. From steel and plastics to EV components, hydrocarbons remain foundational. True climate progress requires energy literacy - understanding what electricity can and cannot do - and a balanced approach to decarbonization rooted in material reality.

France's A10 motorway now features a live inductive charging lane, letting EV trucks gain 1.5–3 km of range while driving. Similar pilots in Germany and Italy use embedded coils, while Sweden's eRoadArlanda powers trucks via overhead or in-road conductive systems. These dynamic charging projects aim to reduce battery size, cut downtime, and enable continuous freight operation - signaling a shift toward electrified logistics corridors across Europe.

Bako Motors is a Tunisian EV startup building solar-powered tricycles for last-mile logistics. Their vehicles are indigenous designs, not Chinese kits, with modular platforms and rooftop solar panels. Expanding into Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, and Qatar, Bako focuses on regional manufacturing and energy efficiency. The B1 model delivers up to 12 km/kWh of driving range efficiency, with simple lithium-ion batteries and low maintenance needs - ideal for emerging market fleets.

Sandvik's "eNimon" sculpture - a nonfunctional EV made without metals - is a PR stunt, not innovation. Framed as a warning against anti-mining sentiment, it sidesteps real concerns about environmental harm and responsible extraction. While EVs require mined materials, most offset their production emissions within 1-2 years. The campaign oversimplifies the debate, mocking critics instead of addressing how mining can evolve. It's a clever illusion - but one that dodges accountability.

Infinite Machine, a Brooklyn-based EV startup, unveiled its P1 scooter and Olto moped at EICMA 2025, targeting European urban riders. Backed by Andreessen Horowitz and Nico Rosberg, the company blends design and performance but has yet to confirm production or deliveries. With prototypes and press buzz, it's not vaporware - but remains unproven. European rollout begins in 2026 via select dealers.
