While a young Tesla driver in Florida safely navigated floodwaters, praising its sealed battery and electronics, such flooding should be avoided despite added protection. Such designs make EVs more water-resistant than gas cars, lacking air intakes and exhausts, but deep water poses risks - corrosion, mold, or electrical damage if seals fail, creating short-circuits and potential battery fire.07 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
The Chevrolet Silverado EV has achieved a record-breaking 1,059 miles on a single charge, more than doubling its EPA rating. GM engineers accomplished this by utilizing efficient driving techniques and minimizing energy consumption, including maintaining 20-25 mph speeds and using a battery-powered fan for cooling. The achievement demonstrates the Silverado EV's potential range in optimal conditions, contributing to advancements in electric vehicle technology."07 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
The US Air Force seeks to purchase two Tesla Cybertrucks for use as targets in precision munitions testing and training. Citing potential use by adversaries, the Air Force aims to prepare for real-world scenarios involving durable vehicles like the Cybertruck. The trucks will be transported to the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico, contributing to the Special Operations Command's Stand Off Precision Guided Munitions program.07 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
A jury found Tesla partially liable in a fatal crash involving Autopilot and awarded $243 million in damages. Evidence showed Tesla withheld critical crash data and misled investigators. Despite knowing the system had limitations, Elon Musk claimed Teslas "can drive themselves." TechDirt highlights this as a dangerous disconnect between Tesla's marketing and reality, raising serious concerns about transparency, safety, and accountability in autonomous vehicle development."

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.
