If you look around on social media, people have a lot of bad to say about the Chevy Bolt. It charges slower than most EVs these days, and with its charging curve, it’s not uncommon to spend an hour at a charging station. Plus, some people are in the habit … [continued]

I was surprised the other day to see that Tesla drivers were more likely to be in fatal car crashes than drivers of any other auto brand. The results are based on US data, but there is no way to split out the numbers to know what caused the fatal … [continued]

The first time I ever heard the phrase “untaxed externalities,” it was when Elon Musk used it more than a decade ago. It is a term of art used by economists to describe things that have a cost that the people who make things don’t have to pay. But they … [continued]
