Mercedes Benz Unveils EV Lineup Ahead of IAA Mobility Show

With territories around the world looking to replace the fossil-fueled cars on their roads with zero-emission electric vehicles (“EVs”), a ton of EV startups have thrown their hat into the ring. German automotive brand Mercedez-Benz is the latest company to announce plans to jump into the deep end of the burgeoning electric vehicle space. Tesla has been the most successful so far, but legacy automakers such as Mercedes, Ford, Volkswagen and Volvo, which have decades of experience, have been giving the California-based EV pioneer a run for its money. As part of its years long plan to become an all-electric…

How to Use a DC Fast EV Charger

With several territories around the world set on replacing fossil fuel cars on their roads with electric vehicles (“EVs”) over the next few decades, we’re going to see a lot more public electric vehicle charging stations. EVs are powered by rechargeable lithium-ion battery packs, and unlike conventional vehicles that can be fully fueled in just a couple of minutes, recharging an electric vehicle to 100% can take quite a while, depending on the type of charger used. Of the nearly 50,000 public chargers that make up America’s charging infrastructure, only 5,000 are Level 1 fast chargers that can charge an…

Electrify America Makes Locating EV Chargers Easier for Motorists

America’s electric vehicle (“EV”) segment has grown a great deal since Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) first released the Tesla Roadster, but insufficient public EV charging infrastructure remains one of the most significant hurdles to EV adoption. While there are more than 150,000 gas stations spread out across the country, there are only 50,000 EV chargers in the country, with an estimated 5,000 of them being Level 1 fast chargers. Consequently, any long journey using an EV requires extensive planning to ensure you have enough chargers along your route, especially if you plan on using fast chargers, which are in short…

New Process Could Halt Permanent Energy Loss from Batteries

With several territories around the world striving for a future where zero-emission electric cars make the majority of vehicles on the road, battery makers are consistently working to make batteries more energy dense and efficient. Electric vehicles (“EVs”) rely on rechargeable lithium-ion batteries for power rather than internal combustion engines (“ICE”), which comes with a set of challenges unique to rechargeable electronic devices such as mobile phones, laptops and EVs. For starters, while most electronic devices indicate that they are 100% when fully charged, this usually represents just 70% to 90% of their theoretical energy-holding capacity. The rest is lost…

CNBC Test Confirms US EV Charging Network Still Woefully Inadequate

The government is determined to replace the fossil fuel vehicles on the roads with zero-emission electric vehicles (“EVs”), so much so that President Joseph Biden recently announced that his administration was aiming to achieve 50% electric vehicle sales by 2030. Automakers are already on board, including EV startups and companies that have been around for a while, such as Ford and Mercedes. In addition, we are likely to see more than two dozen new EV models in the next few years. However, thanks to America’s inadequate public charging infrastructure, range anxiety and charging are among the most significant barriers to…

Fleet Managers Lack Requisite Expertise to Make Decisions on EVs

The electrification of vehicular transport is all but inevitable, thanks to a variety of challenging but ultimately solvable factors such as high costs and poor charging infrastructure. However, most ordinary drivers are not willing to ditch their internal combustion engine (“ICE”) vehicles for electric vehicles (“EVs”). Fleets, on the other hand, can easily overcome these issues, and governments in several territories are encouraging companies and their fleet managers to electrify their fleets in a bid to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and clean up the air. Municipalities and companies will have enough funds to purchase a couple of electric vehicles…

Global EV Market Expected to See Nearly 20% CAGR Until 2028

The nascent electric vehicle (“EV”) sector is poised to experience major growth over the next decade. As the effects of climate change become increasingly apparent around the world amid freezing temperatures, heat waves and massive wildfires, territories are scrambling to reduce their reliance on fossil fuels and cut down on their greenhouse gas emissions by replacing fossil fuel cars with zero-emission electric vehicles. As such, the sector will experience significant growth over the next decade as automakers and fleets work to meet carbon emission standards and more drivers ditch their internal combustion engine (“ICE”) for electric cars. According to a…

EV Firms Opt for More Affordable Production Methods

More than a decade after California-based startup Tesla unveiled the Tesla Roadster and proved that road-worthy electric vehicles (“EVs”) were a viable mass-market option, Tesla is now the largest electric vehicle maker as well as the most valuable car company on the planet. It currently has a backlog of 400,000 Model 3 orders and a production rate of 1,000 cars per day, and the EV maker has produced more than 360,000 EVs since the Roadster first hit the roads. However, Tesla’s journey to the helm of the nascent EV sector was fraught with complications, especially regarding scaling up production for…
