Last month, results posted for the Porsche Taycan Turbo confirmed an EPA range of just 201 miles. Earlier this week, the EPA posted numbers for the higher-performance Taycan Turbo S, and it achieved an even lower number: 192 miles. That’s a 4.5-percent drop versus the Turbo. To compare, the Tesla Model S Long Range, at an EPA-rated 373 miles... Highest-performance version of Porsche Taycan electric car goes lowest on range

Coal plants closed and electric cars got greener. Honda looks to trucks for its fuel-cell technology. And the Lucid Air has a debut date. This and more, here at Green Car Reports. With a passenger-car hydrogen infrastructure moving slowly but development on hydrogen fuel-cell stacks advancing rapidly, Honda and Isuzu have announced that... 
Lucid has announced that a formal introduction for its Air electric luxury sedan will be held in April—perhaps coinciding with the New York Auto Show. It’s also opened reservations for the Air, which is due for deliveries by very early next year. For $1,000, you get a spot for early production—starting by the end of the year... 
One campaign pledge the Trump Administration hasn’t been able to keep, as of yet, is the revival of the U.S. coal industry. U.S. coal power plants shut down at their second-fastest rate ever in 2019, according to new data from Thomson Reuters and the federal government, as reported by Reuters Monday. During 2019, 15.1 gigawatts of coal-fired... 
Honda and Isuzu Motors have signed an agreement to work together in developing commercial trucks powered by hydrogen fuel cells, the companies announced Wednesday.

Or, if you consider the Byton M-Byte and its awesome pillar-to-pillar 48-incher, the more screen real estate, the... 
When the Chevrolet Bolt EV’s federal EV tax credit eligibility amount dropped from $3,750 to $1,875 back on October 1, many expected GM to start making up for it with some deals. After all, the Bolt EV’s direct rivals, including the Hyundai Kona Electric, Kia Niro EV, and Nissan Leaf Plus, are eligible for the full $7,500 credit. Turns... 
Pedestrian warning sounds for electric cars are sometimes a fun extension of the vehicle; but they’re more often dissonant with the rest of the experience—a bit like a bongo drum at the opera, or a geeky science fiction reference thrown out in the middle of golf-course outing. In short, electric cars are silent, and so having them make... 
Nissan’s upcoming electric crossover is taking form—and we sample some of the performance technology that might help it stand out in the market. Cost remains a big barrier against EV adoption. And lithium-sulfur batteries could be closer to a breakthrough. This and more, here at Green Car Reports. For a look at the long-awaited...
