NASA Moon Rover Project Pushes Extreme Battery Tech To Its Limits
03 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
GM is adapting its EV battery tech for NASA's Lunar Terrain Vehicle, part of Artemis V. Using durable lithium-ion packs with high-nickel NCMA cathodes, the rover will withstand extreme lunar conditions -temperatures from - 173°C to scorching highs - while operating reliably for 10 years. Four steerable wheels with crab-walk and zero-turn features boost mobility, and fault-tolerant design ensures function even if cells fail, extending U.S. exploration on the Moon.Ford Faces EV Crossroads as Federal Incentives Expire
02 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Ford CEO Jim Farley warns that U.S. EV sales could drop by half following the expiration of the $7,500 federal tax credit, citing high vehicle costs and reduced consumer demand. Ford is shifting focus to hybrids and more affordable EVs, while some dealers see the change as a chance to test market strength without subsidies. The industry faces uncertainty as it adapts to a post-incentive landscape.The LNG Detour: What Scotland's New Ferry Teaches US
02 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Scotland's Glen Sannox ferry, launched as a “green” LNG-powered vessel, emits more greenhouse gases than its diesel predecessor due to underestimated methane slip. Despite improved local air quality, real-world data shows LNG's climate impact is worse over short timeframes. The project highlights how optimistic assumptions and delayed construction turned a sustainability effort into a cautionary tale about transitional fuels and lifecycle emissions.The Current War On Science, Who's Behind It And Why
02 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Science Under Siege asserts the undermining of science is not accidental but largely driven by ideological, economic, and political forces. It points fingers at special interests, political actors, and media amplifying doubt for gain. It also critiques how scientists themselves sometimes contribute by failing to communicate clearly or by letting funding and institutional pressures interfere with objectivity. The result: erosion of public trust, polarized discourse, and weakened science-based policy.PNY Electric Cargo Scooter Completes Successful Multi-Location Last-Mile Delivery Trials
01 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
PNY's Ponie P2, the world's first electric cargo motorcycle, completed successful trials across Tel Aviv, Milan, and other urban locations with partners like DHL and postal services. Manufactured in Israel, the P2 features a top speed of 100 km/h, high payload capacity, modular cargo options, and a 160 km range. Compared to gas-powered delivery vehicles used by Wolt - a Finnish delivery platform - it offers lower fuel and maintenance costs, making it a cost-effective, zero-emission solution for last-mile logistics.

Electrification Is Not an Oversimplification
23 Oct 2025 | 
Despite critiques that the quest for global electrification is "simplistic", the transition is strategic and necessary. Grid upgrades, battery innovation, and tailored policies make electrification viable. Sodium-ion batteries and recycling reduce material risk. Compared to fossil fuels, electrification offers cleaner, safer, and more resilient systems. Complexity demands better design - not delay.
What Is the Real Cost to Replace EV Tires?
23 Oct 2025 | 
A recent BGR article overstates EV tire costs and ignores fuel savings, regenerative braking, and tire tech advances. Most EV drivers spend ~$2,100–$2,700 on tires over 100,000 miles - not $3,600. EVs save thousands in fuel and benefit from smoother wear profiles. Brands like Goodyear and Michelin now offer EV-specific tires with longer life and better efficiency. The article lacks context and deserves correction.
The Battery Divide: Strategic Choices in the Global Race to Electrify Mobility
23 Oct 2025 | 
Toyota's "1 EV = 90 hybrids" logic reflects lithium scarcity, but sodium-ion batteries challenge that premise. Sodium offers low-cost, abundant chemistry for short-range EVs, decoupling electrification from lithium dependence. National policy shapes adoption: Europe favors full EVs, the U.S. subsidizes hybrids, and emerging markets seek pragmatic solutions. The battery divide is not just technical - it's strategic, reshaping the future of mobility.
Irizar Expands Electric Bus Lineup with Global Reach and Long-Range Performance
22 Oct 2025 | 
Irizar has launched two new electric buses - the ie bus and i3 Normal Floor - with over 450 km range, advanced safety systems, and modular lithium-ion batteries. The Spanish manufacturer has delivered over 1,000 electric buses globally since 2014. The new models are lighter, seat up to 53 passengers, and meet European safety and cybersecurity standards. With deployments in Europe, Latin America, and Oceania, Irizar is positioned as a global leader in zero-emission transit.
Automakers Take Flight: eVTOL Partnerships and Launch Plans
22 Oct 2025 | 
Automakers are accelerating eVTOL development through strategic partnerships. Archer and Stellantis lead with FAA certification targeted for 2025. Joby and Toyota follow closely, planning launches in the U.S. and Dubai by 2026. Eve, backed by Embraer and Porsche, aims for dual certification in Brazil and the U.S. XPeng and Geely expand in China and the Middle East. Hyundai’s Supernal is paused, and BYD remains in stealth. These ventures blend aerospace innovation with automotive scale.
