Report Provides Key Insights on EV Charging Facilities for Fleets

A recent report from electric vehicle charging operations and maintenance firm ChargerHelp posits that the largest issue affecting EV fleets today is reliably managing already deployed charging infrastructure at scale, not deploying more infrastructure. For the longest time, the primary charging-related concern for electric fleets was building enough charging infrastructure to support the growing number of electrified fleets. However, the 2026 EV Charging Reliability Report from ChargerHelp says that the objective has now shifted to maintaining the charging infrastructure that’s already been deployed to ensure autonomous vehicle operators, commercial fleets, and ports that are reliant on EVs have the infrastructure…

Global EV Market Fractures into Three Distinct Segments

More than a decade after the first mainstream, mass market battery electric vehicle (BEV) hit the road, the global electric vehicle market has largely fragmented into three distinct segments. Worldwide EV sales increased by only 2% year-on-year in August 2026, ArenaEV reports, but there was significant divergence across individual regions. The United States is seeing a sustained decline in electric vehicle sales while European EV sales are surging and China is focusing on exports amidst softening internal demand. America is the most notable outlier thanks to the Trump administration's anti-EV stance. While the previous Biden government passed dozens of pro-electric…

Global EV Sales Recorded a 2% Increase in August

Recent electric vehicle sales data has revealed that global demand for EVs kept growing in August, though the pace has clearly slowed compared to earlier in the year. Benchmark Mineral Intelligence reports that 1,830,000 units were sold worldwide, up 2% from a year earlier. This brings the year-to-date total to 13,400,000 units, a 4% gain over the same stretch in 2025. BMI’s Charles Lester said the headline number masks a lot of regional divergence, since North America's sales kept sliding further into negative territory even as Europe posted strong double-digit gains and China's numbers looked healthier than earlier in the…

More Carmakers Are Betting on Extended-Range EVs

A growing number of electric vehicle companies are placing their bets on extended-range electric vehicles (EREVs) to address one of the main barriers to electric vehicle adoption: range anxiety. Due to the relative scarcity of public charging stations in the U.S., American EV owners have to plan long trips carefully and meticulously to avoid running out of power mid-trip. Outside hubs like California where most of the country’s public charging infrastructure is concentrated, long EV road trips are practically impossible. EREVs could solve this issue by eliminating the dependence on public chargers during long trips. With gas prices at record…

EV Sales Continued Their Surge in Portugal in August

Sales of electric cars kept climbing in Portugal last month, with battery-only models jumping 65.2% year-on-year in August to reach 5,079 units sold. This was enough to account for over a third of all passenger cars sold in the country's showrooms that month. That single-month share outpaced the electrified segment's broader position across the year so far, underscoring how quickly EV adoption has been accelerating in recent weeks. The gains came as Portugal's overall auto market kept expanding too. Dealers moved 17,209 vehicles of every kind in August, an 11.3% bump compared with a year earlier, according to figures from industry group ACAP. Running the tally from January through…

EVs Could Become Niche Vehicles in the US as Sales Plummet

Electric vehicles are having a brutal stretch in the United States. Their share of the new-car market hit a record near 12% last September, right before a $7,500 federal EV incentive went away. By January that share had fallen to 6%, and Cox Automotive figures show sales dropped by a further 20% that month compared with December. Policies from the Trump administration are doing a lot of the damage. Washington scrapped an earlier rule pushing EVs to half of new car sales by 2030, and regulators loosened fuel economy requirements from over 50 miles per gallon down to roughly 34.5. California also lost its…

European Startup Seeks to Reinvent EV Tires to Slash Toxic Effects

An electric car's clean reputation might be masking a less obvious problem sitting right under it: the tires. Gunnlaugur Erlendsson, founder and CEO of Swedish technology company ENSO, argues that tires are among the products everyone relies on without really thinking about, quietly underpinning much of the global economy while causing damage that rarely gets discussed. That damage adds up quickly once you look closer. The constant wear from stopping, starting, and turning, combined with energy-intensive production and raw material extraction, makes tires a major contributor to air pollution in cities, and one of the largest sources of ocean microplastics,…

Why the Racetrack Is Becoming the Frontier of the EV Transition

Formula E has quietly turned its racetracks into testing labs for the technology showing up in electric cars sold to ordinary drivers. Jaguar, Nissan, Porsche, Mahindra, Yamaha, and Stellantis all field teams in the all-electric series, and Formula E CEO Jeff Dodds says the series functions as a proving ground for road-car engineering. He pointed to the Porsche Cayenne Turbo as an example, calling it the brand's most powerful road-legal model to date despite running entirely on batteries, with engineering that traces back to Porsche's work on the circuit. Dodds described a method that Jaguar developed for beaming wireless software updates to I-Pace…

Kia Offers Americans an Affordable EV Model

Kia is putting a genuinely affordable electric vehicle on the American market at a moment when almost no other automaker is bothering to try. The EV3, a compact crossover, starts at $31,385 with roughly 220 miles of range, a price point that has become nearly impossible to find in the U.S. as new EV launches cluster toward the premium end of the market. That scarcity has deepened recently as domestic automakers retreat from budget-friendly electric models. Ford discontinued its all-electric F-150 Lightning late last year and took a $19.4 billion writedown tied to battery investments. At the same time, General…

5 Key Tech Features Your New EV Should Have

Driver-assistance technology has become one of the clearest signals of how far electric vehicles have advanced, and it is one of five features worth checking before buying an EV. Depending on the electric car, that can include automatic braking, lane-keeping help, blind-spot alerts, and cameras or radar that watch the road around the car. It keeps the car centered in its lane, holds a following gap on the highway, and warns of traffic in a blind spot. None of this replaces attentive driving, and coverage varies significantly between models. EV battery range and management is a second area worth close attention. Modern battery-management systems constantly track how hot the…
