Danish construction giant Tscherning has officially returned its entire Tesla fleet, citing a growing disconnection between Musk’s political views and the company’s values. “We don’t want to be associated with Elon Musk’s views,” a spokesperson said, referencing concerns over Musk’s increasingly polarizing public statements and reported alignment with far-right ideologies. What’s next? Tscherning will replace its fleet with European-made EVs, supporting regional manufacturers and distancing itself from the controversy. This comes as part of a wider European trend: German pharmacy chain Rossmann also dropped Tesla. Tesla’s European sales dropped 40% in early 2025, even as EV demand rises. This situation underscores how corporate values and leadership behavior can directly impact brand loyalty in today’s socially conscious market. #Tesla #ElonMusk #CorporateResponsibility #BrandValues #ElectricVehicles #MuskControversy #EuropeEV

Despite being younger and generating less revenue than BYD, Tesla's market cap stands at over $1 trillion, largely driven by investor confidence in future technologies like robotaxis and AI. Meanwhile, China's BYD is dominating global EV sales, especially in Asia and emerging markets, with over 1 million vehicles sold in Q1 2025 alone, surpassing Tesla in volume. What’s surprising is that BYD’s revenue now exceeds Tesla’s, but Tesla still commands more than 6× the market valuation, revealing the gap between financial performance and market sentiment. With margins shrinking for both companies and competition heating up, 2025 may mark a turning point in the EV race. #TeslaVsBYD #EVMarket #ElectricVehicles #Tesla #BYD #ChinaTech #ElonMusk #GlobalAutoMarket

This groundbreaking stretch in Trondheim uses inductive charging, where coils embedded in the asphalt wirelessly transfer power to EVs as they drive. No plugs, no stops — just seamless energy transfer on the move. Developed in collaboration with Israeli tech firm Electreon, this 100-meter pilot project will support electric buses from Yutong and Higer for one year. The goal? Boost efficiency, cut downtime, and prove it can withstand Norway’s icy winters. If successful, this could pave the way for EV roads around the globe. #EVRevolution #WirelessCharging #NorwayInnovation #ElectricVehicles #SustainableTransport #GreenEnergy #SmartRoads

General Motors has officially surpassed Tesla to become Canada’s top EV seller in Q1 2025, driven by a massive 252% surge in sales. Flagship models like the Chevrolet Equinox EV, Silverado EV, and Cadillac OPTIQ have fueled GM’s dominance in the Canadian electric vehicle market. Meanwhile, Tesla’s numbers in Quebec collapsed—dropping by 87%—due to the suspension of government incentives, new import tariffs, and public backlash over CEO Elon Musk’s controversies. While Tesla once led the EV race, GM’s broader lineup and less polarizing image are gaining favor with Canadian drivers navigating uncertain economic and political tides. #GM #Tesla #ElectricVehicles #CanadaEVs #EVMarket

Samsung SDI has taken a bold step forward in EV technology by unveiling a solid-state battery capable of delivering a 600-mile range and charging in just 9 minutes. With an impressive 20-year lifespan and energy density of ~500 Wh/kg, this battery doubles the power of current lithium-ion models while enhancing safety through the use of solid electrolytes. Presented at SNE Battery Day 2024, this innovation marks a shift toward longer-lasting, faster-charging EVs. Samsung is currently in pilot production, targeting luxury electric vehicles first. Mass rollout for mainstream EVs could follow with the development of cobalt-free and LFP alternatives to lower production costs. #SamsungSDI #EVBattery #SolidStateBattery #ElectricVehicles #BatteryInnovation
