Mach-E is designed to have its battery positioned within the car floor and this leaves ample space in the car for both the passenger and the cargo. It has a rear cargo space volume of 29 cu-ft and complimentary front cargo space of 4.8 cu-ft – relatively larger than most EVs are offer

For owners who want to see how far into the wilderness the Hummer can take them, they'll be treated to features that even some of the most extreme rock crawlers lack. For example, the Ultravision feature provides real-time camera angles of the underbody of the truck to allow drivers to see what they're driving over. Should one find themselves on a particularly tricky trail, Extract mode allows the entire vehicle to lift itself a further 6 inches to gain added cleara

The giant size of the Hummer provides ample space for batteries and with 350 miles available of range per charge, it should be capable of taking most owners anywhere they might want to go. When hooked up to a quick charger, the EV truck can charge to 100 miles of range in just ten minutes. That's clearly enough for the average consumer who travels far less than that each

Yes, as we mentioned, the Tesla Model 3 has the ability to drive itself. It is not fully autonomous yet, but according to the American automakers, it will become more capable with time. It can drive itself, park, change lanes, and soon, it will be able to recognize and react to traffic lig

Power is serious too with the Hummer as the top of the range model is rated at 1,000 horsepower and 11,500 lb-ft of torque. The motors will propel the vehicle to 60 miles per hour in just 3 seconds. That's good enough to keep up with the other big players in the space and for the first time, a company with more history than Tesla is in the sp

An easy way to send directions straight from Google Maps on your phone to the Model 3 is to use the share button in Google Maps. As long as both Google Maps and the Tesla app are installed on the phone it should be a sharing opt

To get to the wipers in a Model 3 to change them out, owners will need to go into the car settings. In the car settings, there will be an option for a wiper service mode. When this mode is activated, the windshield wipers will come up halfway so owners can replace their own wiper blades saving a trip to a maintenance cen

In order to retain the Miata's 50/50 weight distribution, Zero EV fit the Hper9 motor along with a prototype 1.8:1 reduction gearbox in the car's original transmission tunnel. The EV inverter, controllers, and 26kWh battery pack are all neatly tucked away up front in the engine

Volvo spinoff Polestar sure has its newest product making the rounds these days. Last month, Matt Farah of The Smoking Tire got a chance to drive a Polestar 2 around Malibu —where he was passed by another tester doing the very same thing in an identical car. Now, the Polestar 2 has made its way northward to Canada, where the YouTube channel Throttle House has pitted it in a compare-and-contrast against its main competitor, the established Tesla Model 3. Farah came away from his Polestar test drive incredibly impressed, thinking the car was a significant improvement over the Model 3, but he's only one data point. Now, we've got a pair of testers putting the two (relatively) affordable EVs head to h
