"A recent report by...Synapse Energy Economics examined how much electric car owners paid for electricity and compared that with the cost for utilities to build, generate, and distribute that electricity. What it found was that, in aggregate, EV drivers provided more than $3 billion in net revenue to the grid between 2011 and 2021."The net effect is that the cost of electricity will go down for everyone..."

"...about a third of Americans live in large multifamily developments, often in cities that stand to benefit the most from a switch to electrification. And electrifying the parking lots of existing developments is often easier said than done."...there's another benefit to picking a DC fast charger in place of a bank of AC plugs - it takes up less room. "We didn't use anything from our inventory of parking, which is the biggest problem for condos - lack of parking."

"Teslas are depreciating so bad. They might become the new Nissan Altima. If you guys haven't been noticing lately, you can get Tesla Model 3 with only 24,000 miles for around $27,000-$26,000...""...the government should take Tesla with all these cheaper prices, give huge tax breaks to individuals who live in lower income housing, give them two years of free charging, whether it's through Electrify America or it's through like Tesla..."

"New Mexico Oil and Gas Association [cites]…three things that can influence your opinion on electric vehicles… first is that a lot of oil and gas components are used in construction of an EV. Second…they displace internal combustion engines (ICEs), and they displace oil that is the source of gasoline and diesel. Third, tailpipe emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) from EVs are zero…"17 Apr 2024 | Synopsis
"...joining the United Auto Workers would threaten jobs and 'the values we live by.'"An economist who has closely studied unionization in the South called the statement 'unprecedented and shocking' and said it discouraged workers from exercising their legal right to organize...VW workers told The Washington Post this month that they wished politicians would stay out of the matter and leave it up to employees."

China is leveraging its EV supply chain, regulatory support, and mass‑production expertise to scale personal eVTOLs. Early high-cost models will give way to automotive-style gigafactory output, driving prices below $100k as solid-state batteries mature. Regulatory hurdles remain, but global regions with difficult terrain or dense cities stand to benefit most from low-cost air mobility.

Chinese electric vehicle manufacturers are rapidly building out their presence in Mexico, shifting from pure export strategies to direct industrial investment. Major auto-parts suppliers have built a deep tier-one manufacturing foundation in northern industrial corridors. Simultaneously, automotive giants like BYD, Chery, and Geely are competing to secure full vehicle assembly capacity. While trade regulations present market hurdles into the United States, local Mexican vehicle assembly continues to accelerate.

Chery's $75M stake in KG Mobility raises speculation about U.S. market entry. While South Korea’s KORUS FTA offers tariff advantages, U.S. rules banning Chinese-origin connected car software block access. KGM relies on Chery's T2X platform and software stack, making substitution with Korean systems impractical. The partnership is aimed at Europe, Latin America, and Australia, not the U.S.

Saft, a TotalEnergies subsidiary, will supply lithium‑ion batteries for Naval Group's new submarines, replacing bulky lead‑acid units. The upgrade boosts energy density, reliability, and silent operation, marking a leap from EV tech into European defense. It signals both technological maturity and strategic sovereignty, with potential to reshape naval power

BYD's highly automated EV factories achieve a one‑car‑per‑minute cadence by running hundreds of synchronized workstations in parallel. Each vehicle moves through battery installation, interior assembly, painting, and quality checks as part of a continuous flow. The speed reflects production throughput, not the time to build a single car. Vertical integration, robotics, and EV‑optimized design give BYD a major manufacturing advantage that challenges Western automakers.
