New Vehicle Registrations in Norway Were Nearly 100% Electric in November

Norway saw almost all new car registrations go electric in November. The country recorded 19,427 battery-only vehicles out of 19,899 newly registered passenger cars, pushing the EV share to 97.6 percent and producing one of the largest monthly registration totals the market has seen. That jump moved November to the top of the year’s sales calendar. Compared with October and last November, the increase in electric deliveries was dramatic, and conventional gasoline, diesel and hybrid options now account for well under one percent of fresh registrations. The scale of the shift makes inventory and pricing questions immediate concerns for dealers…

ACEA Says Auto Purchases Increased by 4.9% in Europe in October

European auto sales grew 4.9% in October as electric models outpaced gas and diesel counterparts for the first time. Data from the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association (ACEA) captures a pivotal moment for an industry that has weathered multiple challenges throughout the year, from trade tensions to slower-than-expected technological transitions. According to the ACEA, registrations across the EU, Britain and EFTA countries reached 1.092 million units in October. Germany led the expansion with 7.8% growth while Spain jumped 15.9%. France gained 2.9% and the UK added a modest 0.5%. Italy bucked the trend with a 0.5% decline, making it the only…

Chinese Firm Starts Mass Producing Solid-State Batteries

GAC Group completed construction of China's first production line for large-format solid-state batteries, putting it on track to begin producing solid state batteries at a globally unprecedented scale. The facility currently operates at limited capacity producing vehicle-grade cells, but the performance targets attached to this technology have attracted international automotive industry attention. Solid-state batteries work by replacing the liquid electrolyte found in conventional lithium-ion cells with solid materials, delivering substantial improvements in thermal stability and safety. The solid components can withstand temperatures reaching 400 degrees Celsius, roughly double the tolerance of liquid-based systems. This thermal advantage proves particularly important for…

Xiaomi Starts Earning Profits from its EV Division

Xiaomi's new electric vehicle division has turned profitable roughly 19 months after launching its first car. Combining intelligent vehicles, artificial intelligence, and other initiatives, the business unit generated $4.0 billion in operating profit between July and September in pre interest and taxes revenue. Battery electric vehicles (BEV) alone represented $3.9 billion of the revenue generated during the third quarter of the year. Sales data shows that revenue surged 199% compared to the same period in 2024 and jumped 36 percent from the previous quarter. Vehicle deliveries climbed from 81,302 units in the second quarter to 108,796 units in the third,…

China Targets Western Agriculture in Retaliation Against EV Tariffs

Beijing has imposed tariffs on agricultural exports from the West in retaliation against electric vehicle tariffs on Chinese electric vehicle exports. Canada, the European Union, and the U.S. now face billions in agricultural tariffs after they restricted Chinese automakers from exporting mid to low cost EVs into their markets. According to Chinese officials, the farm tariffs will remain until Western nations remove vehicle import duties imposed on China. In May 2024, Washington quadrupled Chinese electric vehicle tariffs to 100%, with Europe following in July with rates between 17% and 35% and Canada matching American levels the next month. The main…

EV Sales Skyrocket in Latin America, But Tesla isn’t Doing Well

Electric vehicle sales across Latin America are surging as Chinese automakers flood markets with affordable models and outcompete EV pioneer Tesla. Peru saw sales jump 44 percent year-over-year through September, reaching over 7,200 units; Chile hit 10.6 percent market share in September and Uruguay reached 28 percent in the third quarter. Brazil saw 9.4 percent penetration in August. Chinese brands have now captured nearly 30 percent of Chile's passenger car sales and 22 percent in Uruguay. Tesla lacks an official presence in South America despite expressing early interest in expanding into the region. In 2019, Peruvian entrepreneur Luis Zwiebach wanted…

China Taps EVs to Power the Grid

China has installed roughly 30 two-way charging facilities across nine major cities. The specialized stations would allow parked electric cars to discharge stored electricity back into power networks during high-demand periods, allowing China to tap into its massive EV fleet to power the national grid. Beijing plans to scale this pilot program to 5,000 such facilities by 2027 as part of the country's 28 million charging point infrastructure. Authorities anticipate that full-scale deployment could contribute one billion kilowatts of generating capacity within five years as the country's vehicle fleet reaches 100 million units. The vehicle to grid (V2G) concept treats…

Next-Gen EVs Need Clear Descriptions to Inform Regulatory Processes

With electric vehicles entering the market in the near future expected to do far more than provide clean transportation, they will need clear descriptions to inform regulatory processes. Future models can charge from the grid and send power back, enabling owners to run their homes during blackouts or supply electricity when grid capacity is low. Such technology could strengthen electrical networks, smooth renewable energy fluctuations, and cut household energy costs. However, regulatory confusion risks derailing the benefits of bidirectional charging before they materialize. Vague interconnection rules for bidirectional EV charging create the primary obstacle. Many jurisdictions define any vehicle with…

Even Without Subsidies, EVs Still Cheaper Than Gasoline Cars Long Term

Recent research has revealed that electric cars are still more affordable than internal combustion engine (ICE) cars over the long term despite the federal $7,500 rebate for EVs being phased out. The Big Beautiful Bill fundamentally altered the EV ownership equation and raised questions about whether gasoline cars now make more economic sense. Industry analysts who examined the complete economic picture say that when all factors affecting EV-related expenses are combined, they typically cost less across their lifespan even though they cost more. Real-world comparisons using the 2026 Chevrolet Equinox illustrate the difference. Its electric version carries a $36,495 base…

EU to Unveil New CO2 Rules for Fleets this December

Automotive sector sources cited by Automobilwoche report that the European Commission plans to reveal its revised carbon dioxide regulations for commercial vehicle fleets in mid-December. December 16 appears to be the target date, though Commission officials declined to confirm specifics. A spokesperson acknowledged that work continues on the proposal and promised that details would emerge soon. In the meantime, critics warn that the upcoming rules could reshape vehicle markets as dramatically as the bloc's 2035 zero-emission mandate. In Germany, Europe's largest vehicle market, commercial registrations represent two-thirds of new vehicle sales, making the stakes particularly high. The EU defines fleets…
