R1S, R1T, R2 and the Adventure Network — Rivian coverage from the factory floor to the trailhead.
Nearly 20,000 Rivian R1T and R1S owners just discovered their vehicles may have a ticking time bomb in the rear suspension, and the culprit isn’t a manufacturing defect. It’s Rivian’s own service technicians. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed on January 8, 2026, that Rivian is recalling 19,641 vehicles because of a rear suspension…
I’ve spent the past year documenting what happens when you build an industry on government subsidies. Now we have the data to prove what we suspected all along: the $7,500 federal tax credit never drove genuine EV demand. Deloitte’s 2026 Global Automotive Consumer Study, released today, surveyed more than 28,500 consumers across 27 countries between…
I’ve been covering electric sports car announcements for years, and they all sound the same: massive battery, blistering charging speed, tablet-sized touchscreen, skateboard platform. Caterham’s Project V, which just made its U.S. debut at CES in Las Vegas, deliberately ignores every item on that checklist. “We don’t really care about charging time. We care about…
I’ve been tracking Rivian’s post-tax credit reality for months, and the Q4 numbers confirm exactly what we predicted: without $7,500 in federal subsidies propping up demand, Rivian can’t move R1s off the lot. But here’s what makes this story different from the typical “deliveries miss” coverage: Wall Street is now in open warfare over whether…
I’ve been tracking Lucid’s financial situation all year, and a Motley Fool analysis this week crystallized what prospective buyers need to understand: the company that makes arguably the best-engineered electric vehicles on the road has roughly 18 months of confirmed cash runway. For investors, that’s a risk/reward calculation. For someone about to spend $79,900 on…
I’ve been covering the EV battery fire saga for months, from Li Auto’s 11,000-vehicle recall to cargo ships sinking with burning EVs. Now China has done something no other country has attempted: mandating that EV batteries simply cannot catch fire or explode under any test conditions. This isn’t incremental regulation. It’s Beijing declaring that Chinese…
We’ve reported on Volkswagen’s “affordable EV” promises for years now, and I’ve learned to translate corporate timelines into reality. When VW says the ID.Cross is coming “mid-2026,” I hear “maybe late 2026, if nothing else goes wrong at a company that just posted a €1.3 billion quarterly loss.” New spy photos from Auto Express show…
Consumer Reports places Tesla at the bottom of its 26-brand used-car reliability rankings. Why it matters: Buyers shopping for 5-10 year old Teslas now face the worst long-term dependability scores in the industry. The Details By The Numbers Bottom Five (Used-Car Reliability): Top Five (Used-Car Reliability): New-Car Reliability (Tesla vs. Rivian): EVXL’s Take The timing…
One email with the EV news that matters — Tesla, Rivian, BYD, and everything in between, straight from the newsroom. No spam, no fluff.
