With the recent news of Ford, GM, Rivian - and presumably others - moving to adopt Tesla's NACS plug and therefore be able to use the SuperCharger network (that is presumably v3 SuperChargers) starting circa 2024/2025, what's your best guess as to what impacts, if any, this will have on Tesla...

Next gen Ford EVs will include NACS port for access to Tesla's Supercharger network. They will also have a NACS to CCS adapter for existing Ford EVs and will be made compatible with Tesla Superchargers via software update. We discuss this as well as other topics. Topics- 0:00 Stream begins 0:20...

GM to drop support for Apple Carplay and Android Auto in Future Vehicles, beginning with the 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV. Instead, GM will offer a built-in Google-powered infotainment experience on its future EVs that offers versions of Google Maps, Google Assistant, Spotify, and more. So far Ford...

Saw my first Mach-e on the road today in Hertfordshire - have to say it looked pretty cool. Not sure I'd pick a white one but the front grill area is pretty striking. Nice car. Looking forward to seeing more and more EV's on the road :)

I’m Swapping My 2019 Raptor for a Tri-motor Cybertruck, anyone else doing the same?

Ford hyped it’s planned electric F-150 pickup in a media briefing Wednesday, saying the vehicle will be “designed and engineered for hard-working customers that need a truck to do a job.” The comment seemed to be a dig at other planned electric trucks like Tesla’s Cybertruck and Rivian’s R1T...

From Teslarati, by Joey Klender: Tesla’s battery strategy will not be adopted by legacy automotive company Ford, because Jim Hackett, the company’s CEO, says there is “no advantage” in migrating capital into owning a cell manufacturing facility. During Ford’s Q2 2020 Earnings Call in late...

A photo of the Tesla Model Y and the upcoming Ford Mustang Mach-E charging side-by-side offers a good size comparison of the two electric crossovers. The photo was posted to Twitter by Simon Wong, who said the Ford test car was spotted in Waterloo, ON, Canada. Ford’s Mach-E is...

Ford says the “First Edition” of its recently-unveiled, Mustang-inspired, all-electric Mach E is officially sold out. The Premium edition and the GT are still available for pre-order.  The limited First Edition comes with extended-range all-wheel drive, with red painted brake calipers...

Tesla Cybertruck vs 2020 Ford F-150 (all models) comparison

Tesla showed a video during the Cybertruck unveiling event of the all electric pickup dragging a Ford F-150 in a tug-of-war. Ford has called the video absurd. Some challenged the fairness of the video. In fact, scientist Neil deGrasse Tyson chimed in with a suggestion, saying it...

Yesterday Ford unveiled the first true competitor (IMO) to the Model 3 and Y and I would say they did a pretty good job! 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E officially revealed for the L.A. Auto Show It’s pretty clear that Ford wanted to match Tesla on everything from Power to Price. However, given that...

According to Ford, the two vehicles could even arrive on the market at the same time. Ford says that its first dedicated electric car, which will be a Mustang-inspired plug-in crossover, will be positioned to compete with the recently revealed Tesla Model Y. If you recall, Ford posted a tweet in...

So this article was pretty entertaining... "Ford Teases Mustang-inspired Electric SUV as Model Y competitor" from Electrek... So then here's my reply I posted in the comments for the article. 1. I thought I shoukd have posted my ramblings on a more suitable platform so as to not overwhelm a...

The traditional automakers have decades of experience, incredible supply chains, vast dealer networks, and more. So does that mean that Tesla is doomed when the legacy automakers "wake up" and start making EVs? I don't think so, here's my reasoning, let me know if you agree or not. Tesla...

Interesting that Ford just replaced its CEO due to declining stock price. The new guy was formerly the head of autonomous vehicles and this should signal a shift to autonomous Fords. But, it's not too impressive that this new guy seems to have no technical background. He worked at Steelcase...
