Ford CEO Predicts Upcoming EV Price War

At the moment, only a small percentage of the population can truly afford to purchase an electric vehicle. The average EV costs at least $30,000 to $40,000, not to mention the cost of purchasing and installing a charger at home. For the past couple of years, governments across the world have provided discounts and incentives to reduce the cost of electric vehicles and increase sales. According to Ford CEO Jim Farley, that situation may come to an end. With the cost of manufacturing electric vehicles steadily reducing, Farley sees a price war on the horizon with the entry of $25,000…

Old ICE Vehicles Could Soon Be Used to Make Electric Vehicles

Researchers from Rice University in Houston, Texas, have come up with a novel process that has the potential to revolutionize recycling and sustainability in the nascent EV sector. At least 27 million vehicles are shredded across the world each year, with the United States accounting for 15 million of them. Most of these shredded vehicles are incinerated. In Europe, old vehicles are sent back to their manufacturers, which are required to recycle 95% of a vehicle and landfill just 5%. This is often too much for most manufacturers to handle, and they resort to scrapping the old cars. Now Rice…

Lithium Could Decide Future of Electric Vehicles

While you may have forgotten about lithium the moment you left your high-school chemistry class, this metal is making more headlines today due because of the crucial role it plays in the push to switch from the internal combustion engine vehicles we have grown up seeing to electric vehicles that don’t give off any emissions at the tailpipe. To show how valuable this metal has become, its price has skyrocketed by 432% year-on-year, reaching a milestone in April this year. For comparison purposes, lithium carbonate cost about $11,000 a metric some six years ago, but it now costs $62,000. That…

GM Applies to Patent Dual Charging Ports

The auto manufacturing giant General Motors recently filed a patent application with respect to the dual charge ports that its electric vehicles now feature. This ability to use two chargers to charge a battery at the same time was made possible by the company’s latest battery design in which the battery pack is divided into two modules. Those two parts of the battery can be connected either in series or in parallel, depending on the power needs at a given time. Now GM wants to charge those two sides of the battery at the same time, potentially collapsing the time…

Electric Vehicles Cost Less Than ICE Vehicles on a Monthly Basis, Study Says

In terms of monthly payments, insurance, maintenance and fuel, the total cost of owning an electric vehicle on a monthly basis is significantly lower than the corresponding cost of an internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle, according to a recent study. It isn’t surprising that many motorists get sticker shock when they see the price tag of most electric vehicles. This is understandable given that generally speaking, the most affordable electric vehicle costs approximately twice as much as the most affordable gasoline or diesel-fueled vehicle. However, the recent study suggests that motorists should look at a different metric when comparing ICE…

Chinese EV Maker NIO Concerned by Supply Chain Problems, Not EV Demand

While speaking during an interview before NIO’s secondary listing in Singapore, NIO CEO William Li said he was currently more concerned about supply chain stability rather than looking at demand for electric vehicles. The recent upward revision of EV prices by the company shows how much those supply chain issues are affecting company operations. In addition, the company had to temporarily halt its operations in April when COVID-19 containment measures in China made it impossible for the company to source the needed raw materials from some suppliers. These two examples illustrate how serious supply chain problems are, not only for…
