Since only 30% (charitably) of petrol gasoline burned is used to move a vehicle. Perhaps it is better to reframe and persuade people by saying: “hey, you LOSE $70 for every $100 spent on gasoline” #ev

An R2 test mule just got spotted out in British Columbia. One of the first R2 sightings we have seen in Canada, and a solid sign for everyone up north who has been waiting on it. Meanwhile, US invites and deliveries have slowed way down this week. riviantrackr.com/news/rivian-...

Yep. Your #EV battery will be just fine. I've long relied on Recurrent as the best source of battery data, and their database just gets larger + longer. In the absence of every EV maker releasing its own battery ... which ain't gonna happen ... they're my go-to.

EV range doesn’t diminish much over time, a new study finds, with most electric vehicles retaining 95% of range after five years.

Gas prices have gotten ridiculous. If you’ve ever even considered an EV, now’s the time. Rivian, Tesla, GM, Hyundai, doesn’t matter. Pick one that fits your life and stop feeding the pump.
