Honda’s Tiny EV Could Power Your Home in a Blackout

Japanese automaker Honda has developed a tiny battery electric vehicle with bidirectional, or vehicle-to-load (V2L), charging capabilities that allow it to power a driver’s home. Dubbed the N-One e, the small BEV has a 150-mile range and is equipped with a V2L function that can charge electrical devices and even homes. The smallest electric vehicle ever developed by Honda, the N-One e has one 63 hp (47 kW) electric motor and measures just 133.9 inches long. The first N-One e prototype debuted at the Goodwood Festival of Speed and recently made its Japan debut. The pint-sized vehicle is an electric…

EV Sales Surge Globally, China Takes the Lead

Consulting company PwC has published an analysis that shows an increase in global electric vehicle sales, with China leading the latest surge in EV sales. Renewed demand for BEVs in Europe has also contributed to the rise in EV sales across the world. China is the largest electric vehicle market and has an incredibly competitive EV sector dominated by dozens of companies. Unlike carmakers from the West, Chinese automakers have figured out how to develop electric cars at low cost, allowing them to sell EVs at significantly more affordable prices compared to Western-made electric cars, and hastening the adoption of…

BYD Expands to Make PHEVs in Addition to EVs

BYD, the Chinese vehicle company that has surpassed Tesla as the best-selling EV maker on several occasions, is making plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) a major part of its new energy vehicle strategy. Although the Shenzhen, China-based company is now known as one of the largest battery electric vehicle (BEV) companies in the world, BYD’s first foray into new energy vehicles was a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, the BYD F3DM, launched in 2008 as the first mass-produced PHEV in the world. The automaker has now updated its strategy to increase its focus on PHEVs and even hydrogen fuel cell electric…

Tesla Announces Comprehensive Incentives, Discounts for its US EV Buyers

Texas-based electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla has announced a broad slate of new incentives and discounts for American customers in an effort to boost weakening sales in the domestic market ahead of the expiration of federal EV tax credits. The federal tax credit, worth up to $7,500, has been key to making battery electric vehicles (BEVs) more affordable for the average U.S. buyer. As the top EV brand in the country for over a decade, Tesla has indirectly benefited from the program, with buyers collectively claiming more than $1.5 billion in tax credits on Tesla vehicles. With those credits set to…

An EV Pullback is Taking Shape in the US

Something worrying is going on in America’s battery electric vehicle (BEV) industry. After years of making ambitious electrification plans, several carmakers in the country are delaying the launch of new models or canceling them entirely, largely in response to the Trump administration's anti-electric vehicle stance. With the GOP undoing most of the EV-related policies set by the previous administration, American carmakers find themselves in an incredibly volatile environment that doesn’t seem to have much support for alternative energy vehicles. The Trump administration first ordered states to halt the previous administration’s $5 billion public electric vehicle charging network project, stopping the…

Panasonic Rethinks its Battery Production Timelines in Kansas Amid Changing US Policies

Japanese electronics manufacturer Panasonic is rethinking production timelines for its battery plant in Kansas amidst shifting politics in the U.S. and a decline in battery electric vehicle (BEV) sales. First announced in 2022, the $4 billion De Soto battery production plant was billed as the biggest economic development project in Kansas history. After two years of construction, the 4.7 million-square-foot facility was launched with much aplomb on July 14 in a grand opening that featured a traditional Japanese ceremony for marking new beginnings. Unfortunately, the launch coincides with a period of great upheaval in the American electric vehicle sector. EV…

Domestic Competition Pushes Chinese EV Firms to Expand Internationally

With dozens of brands selling battery electric and plug-in hybrid cars in China, competition in the world’s largest electric vehicle market has grown incredibly fierce. Although China’s vehicle market is incredibly vast, there just isn’t enough room for the more than 100 electric vehicle companies that are currently fighting to gain a foothold. As a result, many Chinese electric vehicle companies are looking beyond the country to foreign markets that still have untapped electric vehicle demand. These companies have one major advantage compared to other automakers: their EVs are cheap and affordable. While the average electric car is much more…

Chinese Firm BYD to Commence Vehicle Assembly in Brazil

Chinese electric vehicle giant BYD is set to begin assembling battery electric vehicles (BEVs) in Brazil this year. The Shenzhen, China-based automaker first entered the Brazilian market in 2021 and sold more than 100,000 electric cars before the Brazilian government reintroduced import tariffs on BEVs, hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). With their introduction, BYD risked losing access to its largest foreign market as the import duties would make it increasingly harder for the automaker to sell its affordable electric cars at low prices in Brazil. To avoid paying import tariffs on its electric cars, BYD…

China Dominates in Adopting Long-Haul Electric Trucks

China's dominance of the global passenger electric vehicle market is also extending to long-haul electric trucks. In addition to being the largest producer and market for passenger battery electric vehicles (BEVs), China has surpassed both the U.S. and Europe in the adoption of electric trucks. With the Trump administration recently cutting federal electric vehicle subsidies and halting the deployment of public chargers using federal funds, the U.S. risks being left far behind Beijing. In nearly two decades since the first mass market BEV hit the market, passenger EVs have become the default form factor for electric mobility. Most automakers have…
