Electric vehicle technology isn’t new but the general adoption of the technology is new, therefore, most people buying EVs are first time buyers. As such, the uncertainties are enormous, as customers have no real clue of what they’re venturing i

The rear bed of the Blazer, meanwhile, now holds the 60-kWh battery pack—which really removes a lot of the daily functionality of the two-seater SUV-truck blend. But this project was built to show off the tech, so keeping the components visible may have been a higher priority than squeezing them into tight spa

Over 90 percent of the system's parts are shared with the Chevy Bolt, including regenerative braking, battery heating, and cooling functions, and an overcharge protection kit. After renowned GM aftermarket builders Lingenfelter Performance Engineering tests out a training and certification program for the eCrate package, Chevy hopes to begin sales to the general public in the second half of 2

Ford will be selling dedicated home charging stations to its Mach-E customers for ease of charging. Asides this, Ford has also partnered with several charging stations for its FordPass Charging Network claiming it’ll be the largest charging network in the

The majority of new owners won’t know the cost of maintenance or how often they’ll be required to carry out such maintenance on their cars. It even gets more puzzling with a new entrant EV. Hence, Ford’s decision to not offer complimentary maintenance for Mach-E could discourage prospective buy

Many people love Tesla’s Autopilot. It’s easy to engage the advanced cruise control and pay attention to phone more than the road. To ensure the driver is still paying attention to the road, an alarm rings if a driver’s hands are off the wheel for too l

A Model 3 might not be the best fit for Ryan's life but it definitely would not work for me. Nonetheless, I'm left tempted, teased, and a bit torn between my love of internal combustion and the silent joy of getting sideways in a roomy four-door that can autonomously drive itself to the ski slopes and b

Mustang has a cult following and it’s not hard to understand why. Currently, it is Ford’s most successful nameplate and has been produced as pony and muscle cars. Mustang was introduced in 1965 and it’s now in its sixth generat

Perhaps one of the most American hobbies, the road-trip, has seen a vast boom this year as concerns over personal health and safety have risen. Offering excellent over the road options, the Air offers some 739 liters of luggage space in large part thanks to its compact drivetrain and battery package. Add to that the exceptional 517-mile range and it's becoming more and more clear that Lucid is serious about taking on big names such as Tesla, Porsche, and Riv

In West Los Angeles, Elon Musk has truly accomplished a remarkable feat. No, not launching rockets to space and catching their boosters. Instead, Musk has managed to replace the formerly ubiquitous Prius with his Tesla electric vehic

When Tesla owners are out and about and need a quick top-up or are planning long road trips, Supercharger stations are invaluable. Tesla’s supercharger stations can fully charge even the biggest Tesla EV batteries in under 1.5 hours with an 80% charge in about half an h

The most affordable Mach-E starts at around $45,000 (for the lowest spec). This price sounds like a bargain when compared to the starting prices of the Jaguar I-Pace or the Audi e-tron. However, a few other competitors are offering equal or lesser pri

The typical three-pronged wall outlet outputs 110V, at that voltage the Model 3 would be fully charged in 1-3 days, not very useful for everyday usage. It’s relatively easy to install a 240V outlet in a garage which will charge a Model 3 in approximately 8-9 hours, perfect for overnight daily charg

One way to find a more accurate measure of how much range a Tesla actually has is to pull up the energy graph in the app settings. The energy graph can pull more accurate range estimates based on recent miles dri

Ryan currently leases a Volkswagen GTI and his three years will be up come December. He's also got a two-year-old son and another due in a few weeks, plus a big, energetic dog who travels with the fam—safe to say, his priorities are in the midst of a serious reshuffling and Evinsightzone.Com a car the size of a GTI just won't do the trick anym

One of the greatest elements of modern EV design is that the "skateboard" battery-motor platform they all employ allows for massive interior and cargo space. Throttle House hosts Thomas and James compare trunk space front and rear for both cars, plus headroom in the front and back se

From a stats perspective, the fact that Polestar intended its first EV to take on the Model 3 and Model Y becomes immediately clear. Where the Polestar 1 fits more into the hybrid-supercar-grand tourer umbrella , the new-for-2021 Polestar 2 is a full-electric, dual-motor sedan with a starting price of $61,200. That sticker price buys power output of 408 horses and 487 lb-ft of torque routed to all four wheels, with an EPA-estimated range of 233 miles and a WLTP estimate of 292 miles. Unlike most Throttle House vids, though, this one doesn't feature a drag race, which the Tesla would probably
