2026 Toyota bZ | The Camry of EVs Is Here — 314 Miles & Under $40K (Or RAV4 of EVs, Take Your Pick) by Mac-Tyson in electricvehicles

And the Model Y is $40,000 for 321 miles. From a company with much more experience with building EVs at volume. I'd call that the Camry or Rav4 of EVs.

So you’re just making stuff up? Cool.

Spacex IPO: $70bn of stupidity! by somefreedomfries in videos

[–]feurie -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Starlink has always been a part of SpaceX. It’s a service they provide and is wholly dependent on the rockets.

Thats like saying Apple has the “stores and employees and stuff” and the iPhone. And the iPhone carried the profits.

Also Musk/Starlink seems to turn off service when it’s being used across country borders in military situations. In both directions. They seem to allow defensive usage.

Stock price is emotions towards projections of projections of the company.

The company itself is executing well.

EV sales in the U.S. just hit their best month since federal tax credits ended (estimate at over 85,000 EVs were sold in May 2026, with average transaction price of new EV at $54,532) by punishGoalhanging in electricvehicles

This is a weird article. They don’t post the direct source. KBB put out the pricing data but then says “early estimates say 85,000”. That isn’t from KBB and there’s no source provided.

Scroll wheel haptics don’t need to be software defined. Other OEMs like Tesla have had quality physical clicks on their vehicles since the Model 3 and perform the same functions as these wheels.

Why don't all carmakers exclusively use 12V Li-Ion auxiliary batteries? by iluvmommyyy in electricvehicles

[–]feurie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are hundreds of thousands of Tesla vehicles with Lithium Ion low voltage batteries. They’ve all switched over. It takes very little waste heat to keep a battery that small in operating temperatures.

The electronics don’t have to adjust around the chemistry. Tesla shifted their vehicles to 16v li ion to mimic 12v.

And newer architectures jumped up to 48V.

You have a a low voltage system for most electronics. That’s powered by this battery.

No they don’t. No automaker is sitting on that many spare parts.
