Tesla Loses Global EV Crown to BYD While Stock Hits All-Time Highs

I’ve been tracking this collision for months, and now it’s official: the company that defined the EV revolution just lost its crown while Wall Street threw a party. Tesla’s 2025 deliveries dropped 8.6% to 1.64 million vehicles, handing BYD the title of world’s largest electric vehicle maker by a margin of more than 620,000 units.…

Tesla Faces Major Lawsuit Over Full Self-Driving Promises—Are EV Buyers Misled?

Tesla Sales Slide Signals Buyers Are No Longer the Priority

I’ve spent a year documenting Tesla’s sales collapse across every major market, and this week’s numbers crystallize something prospective buyers need to understand: Tesla has told Wall Street it doesn’t need to sell more cars. For anyone shopping for an EV in 2026, that’s the most important signal in this entire earnings preview. Tesla is…

DJI Spinoff ZYT Takes on Autonomous Trucking with Drone-Derived Tech

ZYT is betting that the same computer vision approach that made DJI drones dominant can now disrupt the autonomous trucking race – and they’re targeting the same H1 2026 mass production timeline as Pony.ai, but with a fraction of the computing power. The Shenzhen-based company, formerly DJI’s autonomous driving division, announced Tuesday that it will…

Tesla’s $2.9 Billion Battery Deal Collapses to $7,386, Confirming 4680 Program Failure

We’ve been tracking Tesla’s 4680 battery saga since Elon Musk unveiled it at Battery Day in 2020, promising it would enable a $25,000 EV within three years. Five years later, we have the clearest evidence yet that those promises have collapsed: a $2.9 billion supply deal reduced to $7,386. That’s not a typo. That’s a…

Tesla Publishes Pessimistic Q4 Delivery Forecast, Confirming Tax Credit Hangover

I’ve been warning about this moment since September. Tesla just made it official: the tax credit pull-forward we documented is now showing up in the company’s own numbers, and even Tesla’s unprecedented promotional blitz couldn’t fill the demand vacuum. In a first-of-its-kind move, Tesla publicly posted a consensus of 20 analyst delivery estimates directly on…

China’s ‘No Fire’ Battery Mandate Validates BYD, Challenges Tesla

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…

China's BYD has overtaken Tesla as the world's best-selling maker of electric cars. In the final quarter of last year, BYD, backed by Warren Buffett, sold 526,409 fully electric vehicles, outpacing Tesla's 484,507.

China’s EV Exports Surge 87% Globally, But the Real Story Is the 2,367% Explosion to Mexico

I’ve been tracking the “Chinese EV Invasion” narrative for years now, and this new data from China Customs finally reveals exactly how it’s playing out: not through US ports, but through America’s southern border. While mainstream coverage focuses on the headline 87% year-over-year surge to 199,836 EVs exported globally in November, the number that matters…
