Which automaker will be giving its mass-market EVs bidirectional charging starting in 2022? And is there hope for battery swapping after all? This is our look back at the Week In Reverse—right here at Green Car Reports—for the week ending April 9, 2021. A series of announcements from General Motors earned the most attention in... 
Toyota and Lexus have an assisted-driving system, but it’s being pitched very differently than Tesla Navigate on Autopilot. Nissan could be readying a compact EV next. And the Polestar 2 feels like Volvo performance for the EV age. This and more, here at Green Car Reports. Nissan is reportedly planning a smaller electric crossover to slot... 
Otherworldly is the first impression I kept returning to in my first few hours driving the Polestar 2 electric car. I’ve owned multiple Volvos, all made before this millennium, and since then I’ve driven most of the Swedish brand’s important modern models, from sporty R, R-Design, and Polestar models to its plug-in hybrids the... 
Toyota is launching a new driver-assist system on two electrified models, but it's taking a somewhat more conservative approach than Tesla Autopilot, and some systems from other established automakers. Toyota Teammate and Lexus Teammate will launch on the Toyota Mirai hydrogen fuel-cell sedan and Lexus LS 500h luxury sedan, respectively. Both... 
Nissan may launch a small electric crossover slotting below the Ariya, Auto Express reported Thursday. The new model would be similar in size to the current European-market Nissan Juke (the United States got the Nissan Kicks in place of the second-generation Juke), and would use a shortened version of the Ariya's CMF-EV platform, according to the... 
Polestar aims for a climate-neutral car by 2030. The GMC Hummer EV can perform as well at the charging station as it can in its WTF performance mode. And the EPA gets ready to roll back the rollback. This and more, here at Green Car Reports. EPA administrator Michael Regan is reportedly readying a reversal of the Trump administration’s lax... 
The GMC Hummer EV lineup’s performance credentials are staggering: an expected 0-60 mph time of 3.0 or 3.5 seconds in its Ludicrous-like Watts To Freedom (WTF) mode, the diagonal dance enabled by Crab mode and its four-wheel steering, the heavy suspension lifting of Extract mode, and an EPA range targeted at more than 300 or 350 miles in the... 
Polestar has set the goal of producing the first climate-neutral car by 2030, eliminating emissions not only from driving, but from every aspect of production and sales. The so-called "Polestar 0 Project" will genuinely eliminate emissions, not merely offset them with activities like planting trees, the automaker said in a press release... 
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is drafting tougher emissions standards, to be announced by July, EPA administrator Michael Regan said Tuesday in an interview with Bloomberg. Tougher emissions rules would reverse the policies of the Trump administration, which rolled back federal emissions standards through the 2026 model... 
One of Volkswagen’s top executives for e-mobility has disclosed to the German business publication Handelsblatt that its vehicles built on its mass-market MEB platform—like the ID.4—will be getting bidirectional charging starting in 2022. VW also eyes such capability in the vehicles as a business opportunity, with a future role...
