Kim Reeves+FollowWhy Ford’s EVs Are on Pause Right NowFord had to hit the brakes on making some of its electric cars because it can’t get enough rare-earth magnets—think of them as the secret sauce for EV motors and even your smartphone. China controls almost all of these minerals, so when they tighten exports, carmakers like Ford scramble to keep the assembly lines moving. If you’re waiting for a new EV, expect delays. Oh, and if you bought a Ford Super Duty truck this spring, check for a recall—there’s a brake issue you can’t ignore! #Ford #EVs #SupplyChain #Business103Share
peterfoster+FollowSafer, Cheaper Batteries Are Coming Soon!Big news for anyone tired of their phone overheating or worrying about EV fires: Canadian researchers just found a way to make a key battery ingredient, lithium sulfide, way cheaper and safer. This means solid-state batteries—think longer-lasting phones and electric cars that charge faster—are finally within reach. The new process is so chill it works at the temp of boiling water, not a blast furnace. Cleaner air, safer gadgets, and maybe lower prices? Yes, please! #BatteryBreakthrough #TechLife #EVs #Business #Industry50Share
William Goodwin+FollowDodge’s Electric Muscle Car Glow-UpDodge just dropped an all-electric, four-door Charger Daytona and it’s wild—think 670 horsepower, 0-60 in 3.3 seconds, and a PowerShot boost for extra oomph. It’s basically the fastest muscle car out there now, but make it eco-friendly. Price tag’s $60-70k, but you’ll save on gas and maintenance, plus it’s way better for the planet. Would you actually go electric for this kind of power? #DodgeChargerDaytona #ElectricMuscle #EVs #Cars23Share
Stacie Hernandez+FollowIs Tesla’s Secret Money Hack at Risk?Did you know Tesla makes billions just by being super green? They rack up credits for every electric car they sell, then flip those credits to gas car makers who need to look eco-friendly. But now, the Senate might pull the plug on this side hustle, which could seriously dent Tesla’s profits—and let gas guzzlers off the hook. If you like the idea of car companies paying up for polluting, it might be time to call your senator! #Tesla #EVs #MoneyHacks #Business10Share
Samantha Pierce+FollowWhy EVS Training Needs a MakeoverDid you know just reading a cleaning manual isn’t enough for hospital hygiene? Real mastery comes from hands-on practice, coaching, and actually showing and teaching back the skills. Think of it like learning to swim—you don’t just read about it, you dive in and practice! Hospitals using this show-tell-teach method see fewer infections and happier staff. Manuals are just the start; it’s all about action, feedback, and repeating until it sticks. Who knew cleaning could be this high-performance? #Healthcare #TrainingTips #EVS #InfectionPrevention #WorkplaceLearning #JobCareer00Share

That’s what battery startup GDI is promising after scoring $11.5M to make it happen! Their new silicon battery tech could mean less time waiting, more road trips, and even cleaner air since it helps more people ditch gas cars. Plus, it could make EVs cheaper and less reliant on overseas materials. Would you switch to an EV if charging was this fast? #EVs #TechNews #CleanEnergy #Cars20Share
walkerjason+Follow3,000 Cars Left Floating—Here’s WhyA ship packed with 3,000 cars (including 800 EVs!) was just abandoned in the Pacific after a massive fire broke out. The crew had to ditch the Morning Midas and were rescued, but the real drama? Experts think the EVs’ lithium-ion batteries might be to blame—these fires are wild and super hard to put out. This isn’t the first time, either: remember the Felicity Ace disaster? EV battery fires are becoming a big problem for cargo ships. Wild, right? #CarNews #EVs #ShippingDrama #Cars6512Share
gordonangela+FollowEV Batteries Just Got a Major UpgradeHeads up, EV fans: a Volkswagen-backed company in China just rolled out a new kind of battery that could make electric cars way safer and let you drive a lot farther on a single charge. Instead of the usual liquid inside, these new 'Gemstone' batteries use a solid material, so they're less likely to catch fire and can pack in more power. If you’ve been waiting for an EV that feels as easy as a gas car, this tech could be the game-changer by 2027! #EVs #BatteryTech #ElectricCars #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup00Share
Anne Clark+FollowOregon’s Wild New Driving Fees Are HereOregon drivers, brace yourselves—big changes (and bigger bills) could be coming! Lawmakers are debating a massive transportation bill that could mean a $340 yearly fee for EV owners, higher gas taxes, and a bunch of new or increased fees for car sales, registrations, and even DMV tests. New cars? 2% sales tax. Used cars? 1%. Even getting a license plate will cost almost triple. All this cash is supposed to fund major road projects, safer streets, and more. Would these new fees change how you drive? #OregonNews #CarCosts #EVs #Transportation1618Share
