New Report Shows EV Inputs Doubled in Price During COVID Pandemic

Electric vehicles may see a significant reduction in adoption after the coronavirus pandemic led to a significant increase in EV raw material costs. According to a new AlixPartners report, the cost of crucial electric vehicle inputs increased by more than 100% during the pandemic and subsequent lockdowns, forcing automakers such as Tesla and General Motors to hike the prices of their new vehicles. The increased production costs are partly due to the increase in cobalt, nickel and lithium prices. These metals are currently quite rare in supply and are integral to building electric vehicle and truck batteries. AlixPartners states in…

Toyota Hits Back at Critics of Its EV Production

Unlike most major automakers, Japanese car giant Toyota has barely made any inroads into the young but rapidly growing electric vehicle sector. Aside from a line of plug-in hybrids, including the Toyota Prius, Toyota has not revealed any concrete plans to develop battery electric vehicles in the near future. Instead, the world’s largest carmaker seems to have hedged its bets on hydrogen fuel cells and hybrid technology. Toyota’s investment in hydrogen fuel cells has also been met with criticism from experts who believe hydrogen-powered cars are not a feasible option. Toyota has now pushed back against such criticism, stating that…

Why Charging Wirelessly Is Crucial for EV Adoption

Limited access to charging infrastructure is still one of the main hurdles to mass electric vehicle adoption. At the moment, the United States has more than 46,000 public EV chargers, a far cry from the million public chargers the country will need to support mass EV adoption. Emerging technologies such as wireless charging could help bridge this gap and allow more people to transition to zero-emission electric cars. Wireless or induction charging has been around since the late 1970s but has gained popularity in recent years as OEMs develop mobile phones and laptops capable of charging wirelessly. In simple terms,…

Car Rental Sector Races to Transition to Electric Vehicles

Although automakers and governments around the world are poised to invest billions of dollars into developing electric vehicles and the required infrastructure, the transition from internal combustion engine vehicles to zero-emission electric vehicles will take quite a while. Electric vehicles are still too expensive for the average consumer, and with the global economy declining, costly EVs will be the last thing on many people’s minds. Fleets, on the other hand, are not constrained by many of the factors that prevent lone drivers from transitioning to electric vehicles in the near term. As such, fleet managers such as the billion-dollar car…
