Every delivery number, every FSD build, every factory move, every filing. Tesla is the most-covered manufacturer on EVXL — this is the desk that watches them.
The man who led the development of Tesla’s Cybercab from concept to first production unit just walked out the door. Victor Nechita, who held the title of Vehicle Program Manager for the Cybercab, announced on LinkedIn that he’s leaving Tesla after nearly six years to move to Boston.

The VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland has independently verified that a Donut Lab solid-state cell charged from 0 to 80% in 4.5 minutes at an 11C rate — a result that legitimately puts the Finnish startup ahead of every other solid-state developer on raw charging speed.

A new survey of 655 Dutch company car drivers, commissioned by BMW and conducted by research firm Kien Onderzoek, found that 60% would choose an EV to…
The first Tesla robotaxi crash in Austin happened just weeks after the service launched. The most recent batch of five happened in a single month. In between, the pattern stayed consistent: federal data shows Tesla’s autonomous fleet is hitting things at a rate that would get a teenage driver’s insurance canceled. Bloomberg’s Kara Carlson reported…
The same auto industry lobby that represents GM, Stellantis, and Ford in Canada just told Prime Minister Mark Carney his Chinese EV deal is making an already brutal US trade negotiation worse. Brian Kingston, President and CEO of the Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers’ Association (CVMA), made the comments at the Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto…
