Hyundai is one of a handful of automakers to remain committed to hydrogen fuel-cell cars. But the automaker is also looking beyond cars, anticipating an entire “hydrogen economy” where fuel cells have a variety of other uses.

Hyundai is one of a handful of automakers to remain committed to hydrogen fuel-cell cars. But the automaker is also looking beyond cars, anticipating an entire “hydrogen economy” where fuel cells have a variety of other uses. This hydrogen bullishness is based on the work of Jeremy Rifkin, a well-regarded future and author of The... 
Rivian isn't quite ready to deliver its first electric vehicles, the R1T pickup and R1S SUV, but the company did release a video explaining its origin story. Founded in 2009 as Mainstream Motors, Rivian didn't start out as the same truck-focused company we know. Watch carefully in the video and you'll get a glimpse of the sporty coupe Rivian was...

Hyundai’s decision to roll out its solar roof last week for the U.S. in the new version of the Sonata Hybrid—rather than the Sonata Plug-In Hybrid—seemed like a good albeit puzzling move. What piece of tech might it be saving for the plug-in, we wondered? Now the reason is apparent: There will be no Plug-In Hybrid for the new... 
One of the real eye-openers with electric vehicles can be how much more space there is to work with. Without the hulking internal combustion engine, the big multi-speed, multi-clutch transmission under the hood, exhaust system, the fuel tank and fuel pumps, and all the ancillary pieces, an EV can feel far more spacious on the inside than an...

This is our look back at the Week In Reverse—right here at Green Car Reports—for the week ending February 7, 2020. The biggest news event... 
General Motors has outlined its plan for an all-electric future, and it doesn’t include a single hybrid or plug-in hybrid. The Tesla Model Y has been rated for efficiency as well as driving range. And EVs outsold manuals. This and more, here at Green Car Reports. The 2020 Tesla Model Y has been rated for range and efficiency by the EPA (at... 
Just a year ago, GM changed its tune about the possibility of hybrids—and plug-in hybrids like the much-loved Chevrolet Volt—in the company’s near-term future. Put simply, GM was finished with hybrids. There will be no follow-ups to the Volt, no long-rumored plug-in hybrid crossover, and even no more hybrids on the way. With the... 
Americans are gradually saying farewell to the possibility of manual transmissions in new cars, just as more families are discovering (and purchasing) electric vehicles. The two trendlines, it so happens, have been remarkably close to each other for the past few years—both with less than 2% of the market. But in 2019, according to Power... 
Tesla last month boasted that its Model Y electric crossover received a range boost before it was even released—to 315 miles. That number is official with results posted by the EPA yesterday.
