@ZevCyber a human here to discuss electric transition, health, and photography. I steer clear of politics.

Sawyer, as a current Ferrari owner since 1995, I would say 95+ percent of all these orders placed are from Ferrari clients that are trying to climb the ladder for future hard to get cars

Hoping for some 11am Rivian news…I’d love if even 10 customers could order R2 today and confirm those options.
Summer is coming 6/21 that’s 4 weeks and 2 days away. Rivian has basically 29 days to deliver a R2 to a regular customer this spring as promised.
With 30+ per day being built we will start seeing them on semi trucks or the parking lot in Normal. You can’t hide them forever.

You’re not applying for our scholarship because you think someone else “deserves it more.”
That’s the same mindset keeping you stuck.
You show up for everyone else… but not yourself.
There are a few days left to apply.
Stop overthinking it.

Hey @X is this a joke? I call out inappropriate behavior and content in gyms but there is NEVER any nudity and if there is, I cover it up. Millions of views which YOU get paid for and not even a discussion? There was no “thorough” review. Just one email and DONE. Do better X…

A few years ago, we gave a handful of people a challenging mission: reinvent how @Ford builds vehicles. This "skunkworks" team was given a space in California to work and the freedom to start from a clean sheet of paper and rethink the entire process of how vehicles have traditionally been designed. Seeing that team come together and work with engineers, designers, and supply chain and manufacturing people all side-by-side has been truly inspiring. While some in the industry are pulling back on electric vehicles, we are building a family of affordable, high-tech EVs and I can't wait for people to get to see what they've created with the Universal Electric Vehicle Platform.
That skunkworks spirit has now evolved from a small office in Irvine to the new Electric Vehicle Development Center (EVDC) in Long Beach. But what's exciting isn't the building, it's the way people are working and bringing those ideas into other parts of Ford. It's the perfect blend of startup agility and Ford’s legendary industrial muscle.
Here's an inside look at the new EVDC and the exciting work happening... fromtheroad.ford.com/us/en/a…

İşte Türkiye’de üretilecek
elektrikli Hyundai ⤵️
İzmit’te üretilecek yeni IONIQ 3’ün görselleri sızdırılmış. Bence tasarım çok iyi gözüküyor. 400V mimariye sahip, B segmentindeki elektrikli otomobilde farklı pil seçenekleri olacak.
Beni en çok heyecanlandıran ise son görselde göreceğiniz yeni ekran deneyimi. Android tabanlı sistem akıllı telefona yakın bir kullanıcı ara yüzüne sahip olacak.

12.7 million battery electric vehicles were sold globally in 2025.
In 2010, the number was barely 10,000.
In China, 1 in 2 new cars sold last year was electric.
The transition is happening faster than almost anyone predicted.

Just a couple days until R2 reviews drop!
Then we’ll really be able to see how it stacks up against Model Y, iX3, EX60 & GLC EV
We’ll have all the roundup coverage on our side with initial comparisons by the numbers and, of course, reviewing the reviews! ⚡️

Is it weird that I identify most with the last one?

“Toyota chairman says people are finally seeing the reality about EVs” — WSJ
“Auto execs are coming clean: EVs aren't working” — Business Insider
“‘The early adopters have adopted’: US carmakers slow their EV growth plans” — FT
I wrote 2,703 words on why this is bullsh*t:

In this deep dive I’ll go over:
• GM abandoning its 100k EV this year and 400k EV by mid-2024 target and dialing down several EV plans;
• Did this move cost GM its fresh EV-minded CTO (via @stevelevine)
• Honda scraps the Honda<>GM joint <$30k EV plan;
• Ford slows down its EV efforts too;
• Hyundai says they will not delay the introduction of new EVs;
• Detailed overview of Q3 EV sales in the US which gives us another sales record btw, and last but not least,
• my rants on how this fossil relapse moment will create new winners, strengthen the ones on the right (EV) track, and how some with a dirty addiction might never recover.

Big News at Giga Texas on this 6 Oct 2023! If you are a short term analysts looking to fill a spreadsheet, or someone looking for a flashy new Cybertruck on the outbound lot, you just won't understand the milestone these images represent. Hint, we have never seen this many Cybertruck F & R castings ... ever. What could this mean?
