Tesla drops ultrasonic sensors—and some features, for now. An “off the shelf” battery pack could be the ticket for premium EV conversions. And we drive the Ioniq 6 sedan. This and more, here at Green Car Reports. The 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 is shaping up to be the first direct challenger to the Tesla Model 3 in efficiency, range...

A Georgia judge has rejected a proposed tax break for Rivian the automaker would have received as part of a deal to build a new factory in the state, the Associated Press reported Friday.

Recalled Chrysler Pacifica Hybrids can be plugged in once again, with a remedy. GM bets on silicon-anode tech for range and cost. Not all CARB states are in on the 2035 gas-vehicle ban. And Toyota is one of few automakers to publicly push back over the U.S. target of 50% EVs by 2030. This and more, here at Green Car Reports. While Toyota has... 
Toyota's CEO said last week that it will be a challenge to boost sales of electric cars to levels anticipated by some U.S. states—including the state of California, which plans to outlaw sales of vehicles not powered by electricity by the middle of next decade.
