    Tesla to increase FSD price to $12k

    This $$,$$$ FSD framing device Elon likes, obscures its full potential. Instead, consider FSD as what it truly is, a ā€˜license to useā€˜ software. Hold for a cyberminute the hardware attached counterarguments. Iā€™ll get there, too. Elon values FSD in bottomline USD and deaths denominations. In...

    China 2nd Giga Factory?

    Wonder whether there are other ways Elon can get China, Chinese labor and Tesla cars into Chinese hands without restarting the grinder of the last three years all over again? MaaS(Mfg as a Svc) is emerging with Foxconn. All China really wants is technology transfer anyway. China already builds...

    Not TSLA but important development: Hyundai shuts down ICE R&D engine division

    I thought fine hybridEV until I saw petrochemical industry support. I thought hybridEV transitory and only a small gateway to battery adoption too. Then EV torque in hybrids put that broad smile on Hybrid owners faces! They donā€™t need no BEV when the thrill of that torque under their toe is...

    Not TSLA but important development: Hyundai shuts down ICE R&D engine division

    Thatā€™s rationalizing like young people shouldnā€™t have sex until they first have homes. Hybrids are petro-chem industryā€™s filter cigarette solution. Hybrid riches will strike niches causing lasting effects in delayed EV adoption, lingering petro-chemical dependency and range addiction for...

    Not TSLA but important development: Hyundai shuts down ICE R&D engine division

    You realize that calling a Hybrid an EV too, is like a proud miniture pony owner claiming that its a thoroughbred too! LOL

    Has anyone dropped an old truck/van body on an electric chassis?

    Built carsā€¦with enough money itā€™s possible to achieve any level of imagination you can muster. Some cars are worth saving. Saved my share. Not EV yet. Conversions to EV are repowers that are a great way to spend retirement, inheritance or gen expenses in a hot equities year. Chevy has gone...

    Stellantis CEO says EV cost burden is 'beyond the limits' for automakers

    Thanks for this headsup! Stellantis had fooled me. Commendable to admit OEMā€™s canā€™t compete. Stellantis et.al. are faking it. All of them, GM/SAIC Wuling Hongguang #1 seller in China notwithstanding. @Crissa summed it best, elsewhere, Battery technology. Those who have their own are in EV...

    Keys, Fobs and RFID have embedded within them ā€œauthenticationā€ schemes to prevent theft. Manufacturers use them as selling points. They execute a handshake.

    Iā€™m with @DarinCT, no EDC. If it comes to the point which Tesla has started, every mfgr authentication requires a ā€˜deviceā€™ . Then it needs to be carried to operate, then your person will have to bag or stash devices. Still needs to be a manual override over EDC. Too much electronics. Shit...

    TBH, EF-1T in the video clip is a 15/16ths scale to Cybertruck. Less a competitor to Cybertruck more in competition with FORD Maverick pu. Much more interesting EF-1V, van version, profiles a CTvan silhouette. It is one well thoughtout slide sidedoor, and biparting rear barn doors. Scaled at...
