We Have Luv For The Arcimoto FUV

If you drive it, you will too. I am just a little disappointed. I’m piloting a prototype from Arcimoto around a bend of a quiet residential Tallahassee street and the experience is not what I had secretly been hoping for. It’s not the fault of the three-wheeler. It’s me. I had wanted it to mimic a […]

Watch This Tiny Tesla Princess Car Catch Fire On Camera

Lithium batteries are not toys. Rich Benoit of Rich Rebuilds fame had started an awesome new project with his friend, Lee. They had found a sort of princess parade car and decided to convert it to run on battery power. Specifically, Tesla battery power. Nicknamed Daisy, that project has now been put on permanent hold. […]

Autocar Drives Vauxhall GT X Experimental EV

Don’t think of it as a production car. The Vauxhall GT X Experimental isn’t an electric car anyone can buy. Clearly a concept, one could think of it as a sort of scout. Its mission is to find a way forward as the automotive landscape turns electric. The twinned Anglo-German brand previously showed us the concept wearing the Opel logo. Now, it’s invited journalists to have […]

Is Jaguar I-Pace A Tesla Model X Killer? Watch To Find Out

There’s no wrong answer, though. Quite a number of reviews of the Jaguar I-Pace have been published over the past year. This time, however, the all-electric crossover SUV gets a close examination by a proud Tesla owner. Sean Mitchell, who drives a Model S, got his hands on a loaner from a Colorado dealership and has posted […]

Hyundai Kona Electric Versus Nissan LEAF

A veritable (Faraday) cage match. First mover advantage. It’s something Nissan should be enjoying in the economical electric vehicle space, considering it launched the LEAF at the tail end of 2010 and last year introduced the 2nd generation of that pioneering hatchback. Now that other companies are launching similarly-priced battery-powered vehicles, the Japanese automaker should have a […]

Watch Tesla Model 3 Track Mode Tested In The Snow

Slip sliding in the best way The Performance version of the Tesla Model 3 isn’t a one-horse open sleigh by any means, but it appears to be just as good at dashing through the snow. At least, that’s our takeaway after watching this video of “Mad Hungarian” Ian Pavelko demonstrate the sure-footedness of the electric mid-size sedan in […]

Tesla To Double Supercharger Capacity By End Of 2019

Version 3 will increase charging speeds early 2019. The Tesla Supercharger network is the automaker’s secret weapon and it’s about to get even more super. The automaker’s CEO has announced the vast network will double in size over the next year as well as see an increase in speed. Elon Musk made the news public on Twitter, […]

German Minister To Country’s Automakers: Make A Sexy, Tesla-Like Electric Car

Sexy sells! Beauty, it’s said, is in the eye of the beholder, but when most people look at eco-friendly cars, good looks are not necessarily the first thing that comes to mind. Take the BMW i3. (Please!) One automaker, Tesla, has actually chosen the names of its models to spell out the word “S–3–X–Y,”  and seems to […]

Consumer Reports Drives Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid: Video

Fails to point out the positive. The Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid, released for the first time as a 2018 model, brings a lot to the PHEV (plug-in hybrid electric vehicle) table. It’s a full-size sedan with a substantial amount of all-electric range (AER) with somewhat polarizing looks. In person, this writer thought it looked quite […]

Smokin’ Sundays: The Teslonda Edition

Light ’em up! Sure, it’s Sunday: a day for relaxing and meeting friends; maybe taking stock and counting blessings. Here at InsideEVs, though, we like to keep it in (metaphoric) high gear every day of the week.
