Toyota on Monday released long-awaited U.S. feature details for its second-generation Mirai hydrogen fuel-cell car, slated for first U.S. deliveries in December. The 2021 Mirai includes some dramatic changes versus the first-generation Mirai that was offered through the 2020 model year—in appearance, and in the entire layout of the vehicle... 
The Rivian R1T configurator, newly launched for those who have placed a deposit but available to the public starting November 23, has revealed that buyers who want maximum range in the electric pickup truck will have to pay a substantial premium. The largest 180-kilowatt-hour battery pack with more than 400 miles of EPA-estimated range—which... 
The Tesla Model 3 Standard Range is now even off the secret menu. Canoo plans to use wraps to help customers customize their subscription EVs. And Lordstown Motors reports a lot of interest in its electric truck. This and more, here at Green Car Reports.

Tire and wheel size can matter a lot in EV range. And could car carriers go wind-powered? This and more, here at Green Car Reports. We drove the 2021 Hyundai... 
Ford CEO Jim Farley on Friday said that the company is considering making its own electric vehicle batteries. “We are discussing (battery) cell manufacturing,” Farley said, according to Reuters, at a Reuters Automotive Summit virtual event. “I think that’s natural as (EV) volume grows.” That’s a very different... 
Tires are the only part of a car that touches the road, so it shouldn't be surprising to know that they can impact electric-car range. What is perhaps unexpected is that the size really matters. Putting big wheels on an electric car could put a big dent in available range. In an Engineering Explained video, host Jason Fenske compares different...
