GM Poaches Lucid’s Strategy Chief, Replacing a Tesla Exec Who Lasted Two Years
General Motors has a pattern now. When the last EV startup executive didn’t work out, the solution is to hire the next one. Claudia Gast, most recently Senior Vice President of Strategy and Business Development at Lucid Motors, will join GM on March 1 as deputy chief financial officer and vice president of strategy, corporate…

Tesla’s Door Trap Death Toll Grows: 20-Year-Old’s 911 Call Exposes a Design Flaw the Company Still Hasn’t Fixed
Every Tesla on the road today has two batteries. The big one moves the car. The small one opens the doors. When that small battery dies in a crash, you’re locked inside. Samuel Tremblett found that out at 1:04 a.m. on October 29, on a dark stretch of Route 138 in Easton, Massachusetts. The 20-year-old’s…

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 Q4 Deliveries Plunge 31% as Wall Street’s Bull-Bear Civil War Exposes R2 Survival Stakes
I’ve been tracking Rivian’s post-tax credit reality for months, and the Q4 numbers confirm exactly what we predicted: without $7,500 in federal subsidies propping up demand, Rivian can’t move R1s off the lot. But here’s what makes this story different from the typical “deliveries miss” coverage: Wall Street is now in open warfare over whether…

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. It’s Beijing declaring that Chinese…
