PHEVs were supposed to drive as EVs 75% of the time, they only did it 20%. Here's how regulations were poorly designed and cars didn't provide what drivers need.

Tesla's diner is mostly a gimmick, but the integration of food ordering and driving points the way to a better energy experience when outside the city

What if there's a new way to sell cars that makes the car cheaper and the energy more expensive, but always saves you money?

Ford promised a Model-T moment. Will they hit the right mix to sell the public?

Using hotel charging can cut EV road trip prices and waits in half or more. But how will hotels price this service?

Tesla showed a Robovan with the CyberCab but said little. Here's how self-driving vans could be the future of public transit

BYD's charger will be fast, but probably quite expensive, and you won't need it, and only want it some of the time. So does it change the game?

Even if you can't charge at your home or office, there are still ways to never wait for your car to charge. Here's how.

I’ve put 50,000 miles on my electric car, around half of them on long distance road trips. But when people ask, “Don’t those take a long time to charge?” my response is that I’ve spent less time waiting to charge than I used to spend filling up with gasoline. You just have to know how to do it right, and you need right charging infrastructure. That latter factor is why I have to say “almost,” because this is not always true in these early days of EV adoption, but it will be true almost all the time as the EV transition continues.

People want to run EV charging stations as a business, but could you sell gasoline for $4/gallon if almost everybody has a $1/gallon filling station at home?

An EV charging station is nothing like a gas station. To get it right, station owners must understand the different business rules and avoid gasoline thinking.

People who don't drive EVs don't understand them well, but there are some myths even the owners of EVs don't fully understand. You might believe some of them!

When you have solar, you still pick a pricing plan for your electric utility. Here's some hints about how to do that. In California, it's less complex than expected.

The electric car revolution is well underway, but soon we ll also see the rise of the electric RV. There's a lot you can do to make trailers better

The oldest rail line in the western U.S. has gone electric, but data released suggest the old one used more fuel than giving each rider a Hummer. How can that be solved?

I recently rented a Tesla from Hertz, for an experience that tried to be wonderful but failed.

What reasons could Tesla possibly have to laying off its entire Supercharger team when most consider it to be one of the company's prized jewels?

Cars that go charge themselves are the ideal, and also a solution for the power grid, plugging themselves in when solar power is surplus and cheap

California's home solar net metering standards changed last year and crashed the solar industry. Could neighbors selling power to neighbors' cars fix it?
