 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.

 Science journalist Peter Brannen reframes carbon dioxide not as a villain but as an essential molecule that has shaped life and Earth's history through the global carbon cycle. His book highlights how CO₂ has modulated climate, driven evolution, and enabled civilization. Yet current fossil-fuel–driven CO₂ emissions are unprecedented in speed, potentially threatening stability built over deep time.

 Recycling existing materials - such as mine waste, used electronics, and batteries - can supply most of the metals needed for clean-energy technologies, potentially avoiding new mining operations and reducing environmental and social impacts. Leveraging innovations in circular economy strategies and policy shifts toward reuse offers a sustainable alternative to traditional mining.

 Africa emerges as unexpected renewable energy leader, "leapfrogging" fossil fuels with 60% of world's best solar resources. Kenya targets 100% renewables by 2030, Ethiopia builds largest hydro project. Chinese clean tech exports up 153%. By 2030, renewables will account for 80%+ of new capacity. Economic necessity drives energy independence through domestic clean sources.

  EVWorld Exclusive30 Oct 2025 |  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.

30 Oct 2025 |  Rory Sutherland argues that behavioral science is key to EV adoption. In the Everything Electric podcast with Imogen Bhogal, he explains that range anxiety is psychological, not technical, and that emotional reassurance matters more than battery size. He advocates for longer test drives, intuitive design, and incentives that reflect real human behavior. The interview challenges engineering-first thinking and urges empathy-driven policy to accelerate the EV transition.

29 Oct 2025 |  Urban Connect is a modular micromobility hub concept design-ed for dense, transit-rich cities, not unlike that designed by EV World founder and editor-in-chief in 2018. With secure docking, solar charging, and smart tech integration, these hubs support shared and private e-vehicles while boosting public transit use. Deployment costs range from $25K to $75K, with benefits including reduced emissions, improved public health, and expanded access.

29 Oct 2025 |  Voltaic Marine, an electric boat startup from Oregon, is relocating to Michigan after a $3M pre-seed round. Drawn by state grants and Detroit's manufacturing strength, the company will begin commercial production of its AEW24 wakeboat in 2026 with Detroit Manufacturing Systems and Kinetyc. The move reflects a broader trend: clean-tech firms prioritizing scalable infrastructure and policy support over coastal startup hubs.
