Unless you’ve been living under a rock or were out in space for the last few weeks, you’ve definitely have heard about Slate. Since they announced their product and the idea of consumers starting with a “clean slate” to build upon, more and more information surrounding the product and their goals has been shared.

The Kia EV6. A lot of things right and a lot of things wrong in my opinion. Range in previous model versions was not too far (320ish km with real world range being reported to be less than that), and the ridiculous climate/volume button option is highly annoying! The infotainment and UI/UX needs to be updated in my opinion.

Check out the above video to see all about the new refreshed version and decide for yourself if this version of the EV6 is an improvement.

Battery swapping seems to be working in China, and I’m still unsure if this will take off in North America. I get the idea behind it - if battery swapping can take teh same amount of time as it does to refuel an ICE, then there is some promise in the technology. I personally believe that between the different manufacturers, agreeing on a technology for the battery swap would be an issue.

At the 2025 EV & Charging Expo in Toronto, Uber’s Global Head of Electrification & Sustainability, Rebecca Tinucci, sat down with Electric Autonomy’s Nino Di Cara to discuss how rideshare is accelerating EV adoption. With one in four Uber riders experiencing their first EV ride on the platform and drivers adopting EVs five times faster than the public, Uber is leaning on mentorship, test drives, incentives, and leasing programs to drive change. But reaching its 2040 zero-emissions goal requires broader collaboration across government, industry, and nonprofits to expand charging and make EVs more accessible—especially for high-mileage drivers.
