  1. Behold the Potential Motors “Adventure 1” EV Van. Camp Kitchen Lovers Rejoice!

    A small Canadian company is planning to manufacture a very small number of these cool little EV adventure vans. Designed to be flat towed and only 84” wide to better travel trails full size vehicles can’t go. Not designed to be a daily driver, but still a pretty cool concept...
  2. Ars Technica Review of VW ID Buzz (Euro Spec)

    The US doesn’t get the ID Buzz until 2024 and our version will be slightly longer, with a 3rd row option. The review is very preliminary, but I thought some here might be interested. If you look at the accompanying photos you will see what looks like a “camp kitchen” accessory that isn’t...
  3. Elon Musk Is High On His Own Supply (Humanoid "robots" will be available in 10 years!)

    Supply of what you ask? There are probably multiple answers to that question, but in this case I'd say he's high on his own supply of constant, never-ending bull$hit. In the article below that Musk himself apparently wrote for the official Chinese government "cyberspace" publication (an entirely...
  4. Canoo has $1 billion in “orders” but only $33.8 million in cash

    I am rooting for these guys, but every quarter they are just circling the drain. ? https://electrek.co/2022/08/08/canoo-q2-2022-report/
  5. Only 11 Geothermal Plants Could Produce 10 times US Lithium Demand

    I know there are various ideas about what the future of battery tech will look like, but as long as Lithium is king, we should look for ways to produce it domestically when possible. This article, written by a Geologist, explains that in the course of generating electricity via geothermal brine...
  6. Polestar O2 Concept: An EV drop top with its own drone

    I want this so the drone can capture all of my speeding tickets and probably my final moments. Take my money, Polestar :D
  7. It’s been a wild week! How are you doing?

    Just wanted to check on all of you.
  8. Thread for the grizzled. Who had NOT changed their configuration yet?

    I fall into the grizzled category. I was very annoyed with Rivian for their decision the other day. I was just waiting before I either downgraded or cancelled my order like so many others. I thought Rivian might offer *something* after the backlash but did not expect them to go as far as they...
  9. Deep breaths and bright siding. What can you live with/ without?

    I completely understand the anger at Rivian today. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a company vaporize so much goodwill with a single email. There is a good chance they priced me out with the sheer amount of the price hike, but before I cancel I’m going to play around with the configurator...
  10. Poll: How many times have you changed your configuration?

    I just changed my wheels to the dark 20s but it took me a week to work up the nerve to do it for fear it might move me further back in line:headbang:
  11. Design Contest: What does the charging station of the future look like? Hint: Yes to yoga, no to trailers

    Green Car Reports posted this article today about a contest promoted by Electric Autonomy Canada and Parkland Corporation (a fuel retailer). The winners of said contest will not win any fans here at our family forum, mostly because they seem to have ignored the possibility that any EV might ever...
  12. EV charging & solar: A single 350w charger would require 1094 solar panels!

    Count me among those who hope that in my lifetime we can have networks of EV chargers powered exclusively by standalone solar arrays that cleanly and quietly top off our batteries while providing shade for our vehicles. I think most of know we aren’t there yet, but this article does a good job...
