Electrified Roads Could Address EV Charging Concerns

Electrified roads may be the key to addressing consumer issues with electric vehicle charging and range anxiety. Automakers have spent the past couple of years producing electric cars with increasingly longer ranges, but charging electric vehicles is much less convenient compared to refueling a conventional petrol or diesel-powered car. While EV owners can install private EV chargers at home, plenty of American drivers do not have private garages or driveways to accommodate private chargers. Furthermore, America’s public EV charging infrastructure is not sufficient or reliable enough to support the existing number of EV drivers, let alone mass electric vehicle adoption.…

Upcoming Book Reveals How Musk Was Persuaded to Make $25,000 Mass Market EV

An upcoming book by Elon Musk’s biographer will detail Tesla's long and bumpy road to the development of a $25,000 mass-market electric vehicle. The road to Tesla’s affordable mass market EV has been a bumpy one, autobiographer Walter Isaacson says, and Musk often put roadblocks ahead of his own plan. In a recent interview with Axios, Isaacson revealed that Musk vetoed his own plan for an affordable electric car repeatedly in favor of robo taxis. It was only when Tesla executives who weren’t as enthusiastic about robo taxis convinced Musk to hedge his bets on both affordable EVs and robo…
