Tesla plummets 50 spots in a survey of the US's most reputable brands. It's
now No. 62 - 30 places below Ford.
Tesla's place on the Axios Harris Poll 100 reputation rankings dropped
50 places this year.
While Tesla scored high for trajectory and vision, it earned fair sco

Industry watchers say it's only a matter of time before Chinese automakers

Is that fear an unfounded rumor, or does it really happen?
EV batteries don't suddenly go dead, like an ICE running out of gas.
Every EV I've ever owned or driven provides plent
My 2014 Volt only gets 46 miles max EV in the summer, but I commute to work 21
miles and have a charger there. I just filled up a couple of weeks ago and it

AMEN!!
We use Level 1. Level 2 would be overkill and we have a Supercharger
about 10 miles away if we have a need to use it (about 4 times a
year).
Long distance traveling is like doing it in an ICE except we stop and
recharge while we use the restrooms and then grab a bite to eat. When
done, w

It's preliminary and possibly sketchy research, but it suggests that men are
markedly more likely than women to buy and continue using EVs.

Once you road trip in a Tesla, you won't ever consider another brand, at
least until the US gets it charging in place (5+ years). Tesla
superchargers are so fast, ubiquitous and quick, and the others are of
questionable reliability, and not always where you need them. We are
thinking of a secon
I don't recall who provided this information, but someone said the 85kWh packs'
charge rate can be roughly estimated by 100kW-SOC(%) (under ideal conditions:
temperature, phase of the moon, you ate a proper breakfast, etc.). So, if the
battery is at 30%, you will charge at ~70kW. I tested that

This is one of the things that infuriates me about Tesla. The idea of
