Susan Moreno+FollowWhy BorgWarner Ditched EV ChargingBorgWarner’s new boss just unplugged their electric car charging business, saying it’s not worth the money right now. The company realized that, with the EV charging market growing slower than expected and competition everywhere, they’d lose $45 million if they kept going. Instead, they’re doubling down on making car parts for booming EV brands in China. If you’re betting on EV charging stocks, maybe hit pause—at least in the US and Europe for now! #EVs #AutoIndustry #BusinessMoves #MoneyTalks #Business30Share
Joe Gallagher+FollowEV Owners Fuming Over New $200 FeeElectric and hybrid car drivers might soon get hit with a $200 (or $100 for hybrids) annual fee just for driving greener. Lawmakers say it’s about fairness since EVs don’t pay gas taxes, but drivers are calling it a slap in the face for going eco-friendly. With living costs already wild, is this really the time to make clean driving more expensive? Would this change your mind about switching to an EV? #EVs #CarNews #ElectricVehicles #HybridCars #HighwayTrustFund #AutoTrends #Transportation196254Share
James Cook+FollowIs Ford’s 8% Dividend Too Good to Last?Ford’s stock is down, so its dividend yield looks super juicy at 8%. But here’s the catch: Ford’s pouring billions into electric cars, but only 4% of their US sales are actually EVs. If you’re eyeing that big payout, just know it might not stick around—if Ford cuts the dividend, the stock could take a hit. Moral of the story: Don’t chase high yields without checking if they’re built to last! #Ford #Dividends #Investing101 #EVs #MoneyHacks #Finance22Share
Travis Baker MD+FollowRivian’s Secret Lab for E-Bikes?!Rivian just spun off a secret project into a new company called Also, and they’re about to drop some wild new e-bikes and scooters. With $105M in fresh funding, they’re aiming to make city commutes way easier (and greener). Apparently, these rides are so efficient, charging them for a year costs less than a fancy dinner. Plus, the e-bike market is booming—think billions in revenue soon. Would you ditch your car for a slick e-bike? #EVs #Micromobility #Rivian #EBikes #SustainableTransport #Cars00Share
Jacqueline Farrell+FollowTesla’s New Model Y Deal Is WildTesla just dropped a sweet financing deal on the new 2026 Model Y Long Range AWD—1.99% APR if you put 15% down (and you can use your federal tax credit for that!). Or, go zero due at signing and pay 2.99% APR. Monthly payments start at $603 for 6 years if you snag the lower rate. The catch? This doesn’t stack with the $2,000 loyalty bonus, and the cheaper RWD trim doesn’t get the low APR. Still, it’s a big move for anyone eyeing a new Tesla! #Tesla #ModelY #CarDeals #EVs #AutoNews #Cars1927Share
Kevin Nicholson+FollowElectric Bus Maker Lion Hits a WallLion Electric, the company behind those cool electric school buses, is probably getting liquidated after Quebec pulled the plug on a $24M rescue. Their big Illinois plant is already shut, and hundreds of workers are out. It’s wild because schools loved their buses, but Lion just grew too fast. The silver lining? Experts say electric buses aren’t going anywhere—other companies are still charging ahead. Just a bumpy ride for Lion! #ElectricVehicles #SchoolBus #CleanEnergy #BusinessNews #EVs #Transportation00Share
Nicole Morgan+FollowUAW Says US Can Build More Cars—But Can We?The UAW claims US automakers could crank out millions more cars using existing plants, potentially creating 90,000 new jobs. But experts are throwing shade, saying it’s not that simple—unused factory space doesn’t mean instant demand, and the EV shift complicates things. Plus, tariffs and automation are shaking up the whole industry. The union wants to bring jobs home, but the road ahead looks way more complicated than just flipping a switch! #AutoIndustry #UAW #Manufacturing #Jobs #EVs #Tariffs #Cars3017Share
Leah Pierce+FollowAre Teslas Getting Insurance Shade?Cybertruck and Tesla owners are buzzing: State Farm’s Drive Safe & Save program is giving big discounts for gas cars, but barely anything for Teslas—even with the same safe driving! People are sharing stories about getting dinged for things like regen braking and FSD acceleration, even though Teslas are supposed to be safer. Is State Farm low-key penalizing EV drivers? Anyone else seeing this? Drop your experience below! #Tesla #Cybertruck #Insurance #StateFarm #EVs #DriveSafeAndSave #Cars41Share
Anna Kim+FollowVolvo’s Battery Drama: 50% Job Cuts!Volvo’s battery company, Novo Energy, is slashing half its workforce after Northvolt, their original partner, went bankrupt. Even after hunting for a new tech partner, the tough economy means they just can’t keep things running at full speed. The battery factory in Sweden is almost built, but no equipment’s inside yet. Volvo’s still hoping to find a new partner and maybe share the plant with other brands. Wild times for EV batteries! #Volvo #BatteryNews #Layoffs #EVs #Northvolt #TechIndustry #Cars145Share
Tristan Richards+FollowWould You Trust a Self-Driving Taxi?Tesla just surprised everyone by quietly testing its self-driving Robotaxi service with employees in Austin and the Bay Area. Instead of launching big, they’re letting real people (well, employees) take rides while a safety driver keeps watch. The idea? Gather real-world feedback before letting the cars loose on their own. If this works, we could soon be hailing Teslas instead of Ubers—cheaper rides, less pollution, and maybe no need to own a car. But would you hop in a car with no driver? #Tesla #Robotaxi #SelfDriving #FutureOfTransport #EVs #Business60Share
