TRANSPORT EVOLVED NEWS (TEN) EPISODE 471: ELON'S NOT HAPPY WITH DELAWARE

EV Channels Review

This episode of Transport Evolved News covers a wide array of EV-related stories, from Tesla's potential move from Delaware to Texas following a significant court ruling, to breakthroughs in solar technology. A key highlight is the Polestar 4, which has gone on sale in Europe and Australia. This SUV coupe, notable for its lack of a rear window, offers an impressive WLTP range of up to 610 km (379 miles) for its entry-level long-range single-motor variant. The performance variant, while slightly shorter on range, boasts 400 kW of power. The review also touches on GM's backtrack on its all-EV promise to include plug-in hybrids, and Toyota's admission of cheating in diesel certification tests, underscoring a recurring theme of delayed EV commitments and questionable environmental practices by established automakers. The segment on charging infrastructure includes updates on NACS adapters for Ford owners and a new coalition for electric truck charging in the US.
