Lyft, Inc. (NASDAQ: LYFT) and Uber Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: UBER) Could Be Hit by Switch to EVs

Before Uber (NYSE: UBER) and then Lyft (NASDAQ: LYFT) came onto the scene, traditional taxi cabs reigned supreme on the roads. However, the ride-hailing apps quickly edged out taxi cabs as they allowed for speed and flexibility that taxis just couldn’t match. As long as you had the Uber or Lyft app, you could order a ride and have it there within just a couple of minutes. After nearly a decade in the game, ride-hailing apps are now facing mounting competition from electric vehicles. With the country on track to electrify its transportation sector as part of its environmental conservation…

EV Manufacturer Rivian Hopes for $53 Billion Valuation During IPO

Weeks after unveiling the industry’s first mass-production electric truck, American electric vehicle (“EV”) maker Rivian is poised for an initial public offering (“IPO”) on the NASDAQ stock exchange that could see it achieve a valuation of $53 billion.

Familiar Driving Rituals That Have Changed with Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles (“EVs”) have revolutionized vehicular travel as we know it. After more than a century of dominating the roads, internal combustion engine (“ICE”) cars have found a worthy competitor in the silent but powerful EV. Several countries around the world have begun efforts to combat climate change by reducing their emissions, and this involves steadily replacing their ICE cars with zero-emission EVs. Electric vehicles draw power from massive battery packs rather than combustion engines, making for an interestingly different experience for drivers used to conventional cars. For starters, forget about car keys because it’s all about key fobs, key…

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) Setting Standard for EVs, VW Boss Admits

The electric vehicle (“EV”) industry as we know it probably wouldn’t have existed if it wasn’t for Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA). When the California-based EV maker first unveiled the Tesla Roadster in 2008, the Toyota Prius was the only vehicle on the market that had an electric motor. The Roadster was the first highway-legal, mass-produced all electric vehicle and, interestingly, the first production vehicle to be launched into deep space. More than a decade later after the Roadster revolutionized vehicular transportation, Tesla is the largest EV maker and the most valuable car company in the world. Without a doubt, Tesla is…

Maine Motorists Revved Up on EVs, But Supply Is Low

The age of the electric vehicle (“EV”) is nigh. All around the world, drivers are becoming increasingly interested in these zero-emission vehicles because of their environmental benefits and the long-term cost savings they offer. The fact that automakers are consistently working to develop superior EVs with faster charging speeds, extended range and a ton of cool features has pushed the demand for EVs even higher. However, thanks to the worldwide computer chip shortage, suppliers have been unable to meet the growing demand for electric vehicles. The situation is especially bleak in Maine, said Adam Lee, chairman of the board of…

Motorists Share Disadvantages of Switching from EVs Back to ICE Vehicles

Electric vehicles (“EVs”) are no longer niche products meant for car enthusiasts with extra cash to burn; ordinary drivers are increasingly ditching their gas-powered cars for battery EVs for a variety of reasons. Not only do they produce zero emissions at the tailpipe, making them perfect for drivers who are conscious of their carbon footprints, but they are also cheaper to “fuel” and maintain. On top of that, since EVs do not have an internal combustion engine (“ICE”), they present a completely different driving experience, including smooth, quiet rides and much faster acceleration compared to conventional ICE cars. As such,…

UK Company Commences Public Tests of Wireless Charging Technology

Throughout the electric vehicle (“EV”) sector’s relatively short life, charging has been a major hindrance to adoption. Not only do EVs take much longer to charge compared to conventional cars, especially in the absence of fast-charging infrastructure, but there is barely enough public charging infrastructure to support the current number of EVs on the road. As industry stakeholders strive to rectify this issue, wireless charging is emerging as a possible solution to the charging problem that currently plagues the EV sector. This type of charging eliminates the need for cables and transfers energy via the air to induction charging kits…
