The Kia EV4 Ran For 6,200 Miles At The Nurburgring. Its Battery Wouldn't Die
06 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
Kia subjected the EV4 to a grueling 6,200‑mile battery stress test at Nurburgring - flooring it repeatedly and using fast charging - and found its battery retained 95% health, equivalent to over 160,000 miles of "real‑world" driving. Overall testing exceeded 74,000 miles, demonstrating exceptional battery resilience. Kia also backs the EV4 with a warranty guaranteeing at least 70% capacity after 100,000 miles or eight years.The First Fully Electric Venetian Water Taxi Can Cruise the Canals All Day
06 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
Venice's first fully electric water taxi, Lucietta, was unveiled by Swiss energy firm Repower. Designed by Nauta Design and built in Murano, Lucietta combines traditional Venetian styling with electric propulsion—powered by a 200 kW motor and 180 kWh battery system. It can cruise a full working day (7–20 km/h) on a single charge, emits no direct pollutants, and cuts energy use by around 60% compared to diesel boats.ICCT Study Ends Debate: EVs Drastically Cleaner Than Gasoline Cars
04 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
A definitive life-cycle study by the ICCT confirms EVs in Europe are drastically cleaner than gas cars. Even including battery manufacturing, an EV's lifetime emissions are 66-69% lower. The initial "carbon debt" from production is repaid within just 1-2 years of driving. This environmental advantage is set to grow significantly as electricity grids become cleaner, validating pro-EV policies.Your EV's Battery May Be Spying On You, New Study Reveals
04 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
A new study from Chinese universities reveals hackers can track your EV. By analyzing your battery's unique "power fingerprint" at a public charger, they can reconstruct your exact driving routes, including home and work. This low-cost side-channel attack exposes a major privacy risk in the vehicle's battery management system, revealing a new frontier for automotive cybersecurity that goes beyond just software.EV Batteries Are Fit To Run A Home Or Even Power The Grid – But Some Car Brands Say "No"
04 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology, which allows EVs to power the grid, faces significant roadblocks in Australia. The high cost and lack of compatible cars and chargers are key barriers. Unclear regulations, complex payment systems for EV owners, and consumer concerns about potential battery degradation are also hindering its widespread adoption. Overcoming these hurdles is crucial to unlocking V2G's potential to help stabilize the electricity grid.

Battle of the Boxes: Tokyo's Compact EV Showdown
30 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.
Why EVs Need Psychology More Than Horsepower
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.
Signal Boosting the White House's Anti-Wind Campaign
30 Oct 2025 | 
Douglas McIntyre's video parrots RFK Jr.'s health claims about wind farms without evidence, echoing Trump-era attacks on renewables. By amplifying fringe concerns and ignoring scientific consensus, the video promotes misinformation that undermines climate policy and public trust. Wind energy is not the enemy - ignorance is.
Urban Connect: Modular Mobility Hubs for Transit-Rich Cities
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.
A Great Lakes Homecoming: Voltaic Marine Trades Silicon Forest for Michigan's Manufacturing Heartbeat
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.
