Automakers and ad agencies might finally be starting to find the right way to position electric cars in TV commercials. The Super Bowl never was the right venue for commercials that need to run people through rational selling points. These brief and most expensive ads of the year are for brand-building, new directions, and generating buzz, with... 
Audi is making a pitch for its fully electric E-Tron SUV and E-Tron Sportback this Super Bowl with a very “Frozen” song. The spot features Maisie Williams, of Game of Thrones, Doctor Who, and various films, singing the song as if in a musical. “Today’s high temperature is 8 degrees above normal,” says a radio voice... 
Three days before a Super Bowl ad that will introduce its first all-electric truck to the world, General Motors on Thursday released a few early details of the upcoming GMC Hummer EV.

Toyota’s Lexus luxury brand has continued—in Norway, and in the UK and elsewhere in Europe—to run an ad campaign describing its hybrids as “self-charging.” In this era of wireless... 
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... 
The Polestar 2 electric crossover may be one of the first compact electric cars to be rated for towing any significant amount. Polestar announced a 3,300-pound tow rating for the upcoming model Wednesday, along with an optional power-folding towbar for flexibility. The company confirmed to Green Car Reports that U.S. versions of the Polestar 2... 
So far, it’s hard to find an electric car for sale in the U.S. or European markets that isn’t also a top-notch safety performer. Europe’s safety program, called Euro NCAP, released ratings for both the Porsche Taycan and Tesla Model X on Wednesday, and gave both models top five-star ratings and top-tier scores in nearly all...
