Chevrolet finally has the all-electric crossover we've been hoping the automaker would make, but there's some bad news about the new Menlo EV. General Motors has been promising a big push in electrification over the next four years, but that's unfortunately going to include some disappointment for those drivers in the US.
Lexus will reveal its first all-electric car later this month, with the as-yet unnamed vehicle set to add a true BEV option among the automaker's range of luxury hybrids. Though Lexus - and parent Toyota - was early to the game when it came to hybrid vehicles, it has been slow to adopt battery-electric models which have no internal combustion engine.
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class may not be the first vehicle to come to mind when you think of green motoring, but the German automaker has confirmed plans to make an electric version of the boxy SUV. First launched in 1979, the G-Class - also known as the G-Wagon or G-Wagon - is one of the longest-produced vehicles in the company's history, but rising emissions standards had left some to question its future.
Hyundai is going on an electrification spree, promising eight new "alternatively fueled vehicles" by 2022 as the 2020 Ioniq Electric lands with significantly greater range. The South Korean automaker says that it plans to have 13 different eco-focused models in its line-up by 2022, spanning an array of different drivetrains.
Volkswagen may have only just kicked off production of the ID.3, its first all-electric car based on the new MEB platform, but that hasn't stopped it from previewing a new EV concept that could reboot the wagon. The VW ID. SPACE VIZZION will make its public debut at the LA Auto Show later this month, but don't let the fact that it's a concept fool you.
There’s a lot riding on Volkswagen’s first-ever ID.3 electric car. As I watched the first production model ID.3 roll off the assembly line, you couldn't miss the newfound sense of pride among the 8,000 or so employees inside VW’s Zwickau factory, which was converted recently from a large car manufacturing plant into what the automaker claims is the Mecca of e-mobility.
The Tesla Cybertruck - the electric car company's pickup truck - will make its official debut later this month, with CEO Elon Musk confirming the date of the unveil. The unusual name was revealed back on Tesla's Q3 2019 earnings call, Musk referring to the pickup as the "Cybertruck" though not confirming whether that would be the utility's production name.
There may be a hybrid Mustang coming, but Ford's legendary pony car has gone all-electric for a custom SEMA 2019 vision of what a performance EV could deliver. Unveiled today at the Las Vegas show, the Mustang Lithium is the fruit of a collaboration between Ford and Webasto, packing more than 1,000 lb-ft of torque to play with.
Infiniti has revealed its big plans for EVs, but the Japanese automaker isn't going to deliver electrification in the same way we've seen other luxury car companies do it. Having previewed its vision for electric crossovers and sedans with a number of "Inspiration" concepts over the past few years, it turns out Infiniti still sees there being a place for internal combustion engines, even if it's electricity that's actually driving the wheels.
The Polestar 1 behind me fills the rear view mirror, low and broad, a shark among minnows on the highway. There's something about the proportions that encourage a second-glance; after all, you can't really credit brand recognition for the number of hungry stares, hastily-pointed phone cameras, and blunt fascination the sleek 2+2 coupe engenders.
Chuck Schumer wants to make every vehicle on US roads "clean" by 2040, and he's proposing big discounts on EVs when you trade in a gas-powered car to do it. The New York Senator revealed the "Clean Cars for America" proposal today, insisting that while the plan would be expensive, it would pay dividends in boosting American-made vehicles, EV infrastructure, and fighting climate change.
Jaguar has a new all-electric sports car, but don't get too excited: piloting the Jaguar Vision GT Coupé is only going to happen in Gran Turismo. The latest supercar concept to be designed specially for the legendary racing game, it combines classic Jaguar racing car style with an all-wheel drive system inspired by the British automaker's modern electric racers.
