A solar powered car — directly solar powered car, a new residential solar panel from Prosun, and the 496,000 unit collapse of the US auto market in the first quarter — those were the most popular stories on CleanTechnica last week

The most popular CleanTechnica articles of the first half of the month were somehow led by 3 articles about things Elon Musk said. Not things Tesla did, just things Elon said

April flew by, right? Oh, no, never mind — April was 8 years stuffed into one calendar month. Looking back on the top CleanTechnica articles of the month, some feel like they were an era ago. It's also weird that the top 3 were about ventilators, masks, and motorcycles. What a month

Heat pump water heaters? That's right — that was the most popular topic of the week last week on CleanTechnica. Surprised me. It's not even a Tesla product! In fact, Tesla was only in the title of 7 stories, which would be great for any other company, but is below Tesla's average

Perhaps society is rolling back toward normality after all — the most popular articles on CleanTechnica last week were once again led by a few Tesla stories, including two about Tesla vehicles! Yes, one COVID-19/ventilator story still slipped into the top 3, and a few coronavirus-related stories hit the rest of the top 20 ... because cancelling society comes with some major side effects

This is one of the odder starts to a CleanTechnica top 20 list. We've got a story about the motorcycle market on top, followed by a nurse reviewing a Tesla ventilator that's in development, followed by a report on the used car sale market

A cool electric vehicle total cost of ownership calculator from a California utility (for its region), the horrible situation the state of Louisiana is in with regards to the coronavirus epidemic and COVID-19, coming gas station bankruptcies, and Elon Musk's offer of ventilators to any hospital urgently needing them led CleanTechnica's list of the most popular stories last week
March 30th, 2020 | by Zachary Shahan
The most popular CleanTechnica stories last week involved ventilators, N95 masks, electric car tipping points, COVID-19 testing, and investing in toilet paper vs. Tesla stock. Yes, we are living in strange times

The most popular CleanTechnica articles of the past week, naturally, included a few pieces related to the coronavirus/COVID-19 pandemic that's shutting down half the world. Otherwise, hot topics were the Tesla Model Y (have to wonder how much this vehicle would dominate some portions of the news and public consciousness if not for COVID-19), the Volkswagen ID.3 and overall ID lineup/strategy, and other EV and Tesla news and analyses
March 15th, 2020 | by Zachary Shahan
The most popular CleanTechnica article of the week last week was not about the Tesla Model Y, Tesla Cybertruck, Tesla Model 3, or any other hot new Tesla. Instead, it was about a Model X old-timer with 409,000 miles on the odometer. The #2 story wasn't even a Tesla story!
March 9th, 2020 | by Zachary Shahan
The Tesla Model 3 and Tesla Model Y topped the charts on CleanTechnica last week, just as they're expected to top the electric vehicle sales charts for years to come. Another technology that hit the top 20 more than once last week — perovskite solar cells
March 1st, 2020 | by Zachary Shahan
The biggest CleanTechnica stories last week included four stories on the Tesla Model 3, three stories on the Model Y, two stories on Tesla batteries, and stories on a few other things
February 24th, 2020 | by Zachary Shahan
The most popular CleanTechnica stories last week involved perovskite solar cell research and projections (a hot topic for the past few — or several — years), Toyota's continued focus on hybrids (considered by many to be a death knell for the hybrid leader and 100% electric laggard), and The Boring Company's first of two Las Vegas tunnels

The most popular CleanTechnica articles in January were, as it turns out, led by a bit of an unusual post for us. While it was a genuine list of the "worst things" about owning a Tesla Model 3 (from my perspective), there are buckets of humor enveloping it all
February 15th, 2020 | by Zachary Shahan
The three most popular CleanTechnica stories of the last week included a fresh Chevy Bolt review focused on just how much you get from a Bolt at such a low price (hint: prices at dealers are far below MSRP in many places), a thorough look at the Copenhagen Wheel, and solar tech innovation at Intersolar North America
February 3rd, 2020 | by Zachary Shahan
The most popular CleanTechnica stories last week included a top 10 list of the best things about owning a Tesla Model 3 and the worst things about owning a Tesla Model 3. (Many of the items on the lists relate to any EV, and almost all of them relate to any Tesla.) Another top story was Elon Musk's comments in a recent interview that something akin to "alien technology" is coming. One more top story is a CleanTechnica original on getting Tesla Solarglass Roof installed
January 26th, 2020 | by Zachary Shahan
Interestingly, the anecdote of one couple buying a Tesla Model X was the biggest story of the week last week for us. Perhaps this is something we need a bit more of on CleanTechnica
January 21st, 2020 | by Zachary Shahan
Last week's top stories on CleanTechnica included Andy Miles explaining why Tesla vehicles cut pollution rather than causing more pollution, a rundown of how Tesla's "full stack disruption" sets it apart from the auto crowd, and yet another comparison of the Tesla Model 3 and Tesla Model
January 14th, 2020 | by Zachary Shahan
The biggest, hottest, most enticing CleanTechnica stories last week were led by Sony unveiling an electric car, the impossible-to-comprehend scale of this month's Australian wildfires, and a solar energy storage device from the 1980s that has come back to life. You may have noticed something unusual by now — there wasn't a single Tesla story in the top 3! That's the first time in a long time, and ironic considering that Tesla stock [TSLA] went bonkers last week (and is still going bonkers)
January 2nd, 2020 | by Zachary Shahan
The Tesla Cybertruck may be "old news" by now (ah, the not-so-endearing ADD of the internet), but a piece of ours explaining why it doesn't really need a garage was still king of the hill last month. Tesla took silver too, with a story explaining that the 2012 Tesla Model S still has superior specs to new 2020 EV entrants from other companies than Tesla. In third was a piece on world-leading research from our friend Mark Z. Jacobson and several colleagues on how the world could be a galaxy-leading 100% renewable energy planet!
December 21st, 2019 | by Zachary Shahan
The top three stories on CleanTechnica last week were some writer reflections or analysis on Tesla vehicles and the burgeoning electric vehicle (EV) market as a whole. They explained why a Tesla Cybertruck doesn't need to park in a garage, that a 2012 Tesla Model S is still unbeaten by non-Tesla competitors — including EVs coming in 2020, and why the huge growth in EV sales in the Netherlands is something we should get used to

What caught readers' eyes the most on CleanTechnica last week? That would be the new Tesla Backup Gateway 2, which looks like a mini Powerwall; a titillating study on EV total cost of ownership in the UK that Bank of American Merrill Lynch conducted and shared with CleanTechnica; and a commentary on Tesla's revenue growth juxtaposed against Tesla critics' seemingly never-ending pessimism, which is typically very misplaced
December 9th, 2019 | by Zachary Shahan
The Tesla Cybertruck continued to blow up last week, and stimulated many different articles. Nonetheless, the Tesla Model 3 slipped through the pack to take the #1 position on the top stories list. A few more Model 3 stories, some Ford stories, a few on Tesla gigafactories, and a little bit of solar just about wrapped up the rest of the top 20 list. Check out the details below
