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 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.…
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 investors, that’s a risk/reward calculation. For someone about to spend $79,900 on…
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 just validated its most unusual bet: turning Supercharger stops into lifestyle destinations. The company’s Hollywood Diner has now sold over 80,000 burgers since opening in July 2025, generating $1.08 million in revenue according to Tesla’s 2025 year-end recap shared by Sawyer Merritt. Here’s why this matters more than the headline suggests: Elon Musk promised…
Tesla’s 9 millionth vehicle—a white Model Y—rolled off the line at Giga Shanghai today, and the timing says everything about where this company stands heading into 2026. The milestone took just 207 days to reach from the 8 millionth car, which was an Ultra Red Model Y produced at Giga Berlin on June 6, 2025.…
