Tesla may have swooped in at the last minute and stolen the show in Los Angeles this week, but the ever-frisky Karma has its own pickup pitch: an extended-range EV for commercial applications. Karma's pitch is a bit less concrete than Tesla's. Rising from the ashes of Fisker, Karma is merely interested in building luxury and high-performance... 
The rapid progress of lithium-ion battery-cell energy density and the growth of fast-charging networks have together helped write the epitaph for BMW’s range-extending technology, badged REx on the BMW i3. “It has no future,” replied Jan Freimann, BMW’s manager for connected e-mobility and one of the company’s battery... 
The Tesla Cybertruck revealed Thursday night was polarizing and thought-provoking, to say the least.

This and more, today at Green Car Reports. The Tesla Cybertruck has been revealed. It delivers on many of CEO Elon Musk’s earlier teases and claims about the truck, and... 
Bridgestone is the first tire company to use recovered carbon black in the large-scale manufacturing of new tires, paving the way for reductions in carbon emissions in an industry that has long been plagued by waste issues. Carbon black is fundamentally a particulate byproduct of the incomplete combustion of petroleum products. Tire manufacturers... 
The 2019 E-Tron was awarded five stars in government crash testing, Audi announced Tuesday, adding to its new EV's safety top-notch credentials. The E-Tron's five-star overall rating was bolstered by its performance in the government's side-impact and rollover testing, earning five stars for both front and rear passengers in all side impact... 
Is Tesla really serious about its radically different Cybertruck, revealed by CEO Elon Musk to a packed room of fans Thursday night?
