I met a super early Tesla Model S concept test driver and now Tesla Model S owner at a charging station recently. Curious to see the reactions of a Tesla driver on his first time in a LEAF, I invited him for a trial run.
I recently reached out to Kia to see if I could spend some quality time with the Kia Soul EV. It is a funky-looking vehicle that packs a surprising 93 miles of range. As a first-generation EV for Kia, that speaks to the brand’s desire to deliver a product that packs the most bang for the buck for its customers. Having said that, the Kia Soul EV does fall short compared to the generation of new electric vehicles hitting showroom floors today, like the Hyundai Ioniq with its 124 miles of range and the Chevy Bolt at 238 miles of range.
Philips has released two new LED bulbs for residential use that have the potential to add some fun and personality to your space.
We have reviewed Philips LED bulbs in the past and had a great experience, so when the team at Philips reached out to us about the new bulbs, we eagerly agreed to run them through the paces.
Jakub (Kuba) Stechły and I recently enjoyed a looooong, long, long drive to Paris (France) from Wrocław (Poland) in a Tesla Shuttle (a 2015 Tesla Model S 85D, to be precise).
WB Mason has begun testing five E-Gen electric delivery trucks manufactured by Workhorse. Each is equipped with an auxiliary generator supplied by BMW and lithium-ion battery cells from Panasonic.
Jakub Stechły and I are a little more than halfway (~9 hours) through our drive from Wrocław, Poland, to Paris, France. We’ve taken a few photos of our erratic driving patterns and average Wh/km. More or less, we’ve driven with the flow of traffic, but have at times driven at extreme speeds (more on that at the bottom) and at other times slowed down a bit to not cut our battery range too close.
In light of the just announced 150—350 kW High Power Charge system from ABB being presented in Stuttgart, Germany, this month, I think this story needs to be told now, before it is so outdated no one will care.
Gocycle is a folding electric bicycle isn’t your garden-variety e-bike. It feels like a peek into the future of how e-bikes will most likely be designed.
Yes, we know the title is a little grabby, but a two-month test ride of the Jetson Adventure electric bike (e-bike) has been, well, a nice adventure.
Moms and dads across the US have been eagerly waiting for an efficient plug-in hybrid that could haul big families and gear. Aside from the $80,000+ Tesla Model X, there weren’t any plug-in vehicles that could haul around larger families with room for 7 and all the trimmings. Because of that, the Chrysler Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid minivan has been a highly anticipated vehicle since it was first announced in January 2016. It has been watched very closely by eco moms and sustaina-dads alike.
