The 2025 EV Sales Numbers Are In, And They Reveal A Market Split In Two

Cox Automotive’s Q4 2025 Kelley Blue Book EV Sales Report landed this morning, and while the headline numbers look familiar, the underlying story is anything but. Tesla’s Model Y and Model 3 still dominate the top two positions, but the real drama unfolds when you compare the first nine months of 2025 to Q4. The…

Rivian Recall Exposes Service Network Weakness Ahead of Critical R2 Launch

Nearly 20,000 Rivian R1T and R1S owners just discovered their vehicles may have a ticking time bomb in the rear suspension, and the culprit isn’t a manufacturing defect.

Deloitte Survey Reveals Incentives Rank Dead Last Among EV Purchase Motivations

I’ve spent the past year documenting what happens when you build an industry on government subsidies.

Lucid’s 18-Month Cash Runway: What Buyers Need To Know About The Saudi Safety Net

I’ve been tracking Lucid’s financial situation all year, and a Motley Fool analysis this week crystallized what prospective buyers need to understand: the company that makes arguably the best-engineered electric vehicles on the road has roughly 18 months of confirmed cash runway. For investors, that’s a risk/reward calculation. For someone about to spend $79,900 on…

China’s ‘No Fire’ Battery Mandate Validates BYD, Challenges Tesla

I’ve been covering the EV battery fire saga for months, from Li Auto’s 11,000-vehicle recall to cargo ships sinking with burning EVs. Now China has done something no other country has attempted: mandating that EV batteries simply cannot catch fire or explode under any test conditions. This isn’t incremental regulation.
