Omo X: Self-Driving Scooter Redefines Urban EV Mobility
18 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
"The Omo X's real power lies in its sensors and software. With blind-spot alerts, adaptive cruise control, forward collision warnings, emergency braking, and V2V communication, it goes well beyond what most would expect from an electric two-wheeler."Without clear specs for top speed, charging time, or mileage range, it's hard for buyers to compare it directly to existing alternatives."

The Real Reason Guardrails Can't Stop EVs in a Crash
16 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
"The reality is, weight alone can’t explain it. Generally speaking, yes, vehicles have been getting heavier...EVs like the Rivian R1T, the GMC Hummer EV, and the Tesla Cybertruck aren't that much heavier than some well-optioned heavy-duty pickups"...the issue is really twofold...barriers only work if they’re able to absorb the energy from an impact, they're engineered to take those hits where most of a car's energy is concentrated..."

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.

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
