One aspect of driving an EV that doesn't get enough attention is regenerative braking. The Kia app has started showing how much power is fed back to the battery for each of my trips and it's typically around 40%. I'm surprised how high it is. ICE vehicles in contrast waste all of their forward momentum when braking. I've heard of people with 10-year-old EVs in Hawaii who have had to replace rotors and other parts of the brake assembly while the pads look almost new. #EV #driving

They have BYDs in Mexico. I've seen cars from Mexico with Mexican license plates around Northwest Indiana, so their cars are visiting the US. BYDs from Mexico are cruising around in California right now and people in the US are seeing them. https://youtu.be/p7-85RO1-gM #cars #ev #uspol #economy #china

RE: https://mastodon.online/@electrek/116468665233029250 Speaking from personal experience, this is spot on. The savings ARE STAGGERING. One of our trucks went from $20,000 per year to $3000, JUST IN FUEL COSTS. Never mind the cost of maintaining an ICE vs an EV which is minuscule. #EV #ElectricVehicles #electrification #Electric #Climate #ClimateChange #onpoli #canpoli #fossilfuels

Norway, population 5.6 Million. 1/3rd above the Arctic Circle, and heavily dependent on oil and gas from the North Sea. And yet, their new-car sales were at 94% EV in January. 98 diesel cars, 7 petrol(gasoline), 29 hybrids. The rest were EVs. 7 gas cars is wild! But please tell me again that EVs don't work in the cold etc etc… #BCPoli #CanPoli #EV #Electric #Cars https://electrek.co/2026/02/03/even-after-cutting-ev-incentives-norway-only-sold-98-diesel-cars-in-january/

11 Electric Cars Worth a Look as Gas Prices Soar https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/15/business/electric-cars-evs-used-gas-prices.html?utm_source=flipboard&utm_content=Econopass%2Fmagazine%2FFLIPBOARD+EXCHANGE+FEED+%F0%9F%97%9E%EF%B8%8F The war in Iran has auto shoppers sizing up electrics. Many strong cars are on the market, and there are bargains to be had when buying used. The only expensive liquid I buy at gas stations anymore is Diet Coke. With gas prices high and unlikely to fall as quickly as they shot upward after the start … #cars #ev #gasprices #iranwar

‪Paul Waldman‬ @paulwaldman.bsky.social‬ The latest EV batteries from BYD can charge to 70% in 5 minutes and 97% in 10 minutes. They're leaving American manufacturers in the dust, and after Trump's all-out war on renewables and EVs, we may never catch up. China is probably going to supply the world. #energy #EV https://insideevs.com/news/789094/byd-second-generation-blade-battery

I was intrigued by Rivian; thought I might look seriously at their smaller, more affordable SUV for those situations when i want more ruggedness than my Bolt delivers (for snow; logging roads in the Superior National Forest—use cases for 1 percent of my miles). But the more they embrace garbage tech, the more I’m turned off. https://www.forbes.com/sites/brookecrothers/2026/02/28/what-rivians-new-vehicle-ai-is-all-about-and-how-its-taking-on-tesla/ #EV #EVs #Rivian #ChevyBolt #noAI #ai

@GreenFire@mstdn.social I’ll add: In USA gas was dirt cheap yesterday, & has been since the supply pinch of the post-Covid recovery. That will change very soon. But with recent cheap gas, there are killer deals out there now on lightly used EVs. It’s a great time to make the switch & stop funding the #OilyBoys. Especially if one can charge at home. My EV fuel costs <2 cents per mile when I home charge off-peak (which is 95 percent of the time). #EV #EVs #OilWar #GasPrices #NoMoreOilWars
