As a result of them being found at fault for sinking a car carrier and a big court case a recall is now in action for the brand. Faulty batteries prompt recall on Porsche’s EV offering. Porsche’s leading electric car offering has been hit with an urgent recall notice by the federal transport department over battery issues.So much for German engineering. |

Meanwhile, the way EVs are going, further, see: Tesla Backtrack BIG Style and Other (Almost) Breaking News! wrote: 01:16 Supermarkets Charge more! Quite a healthy mix for just one sample.

So much for German engineering.German Engineering 'among cell modules in the high voltage battery'? I doubt that. This thought can be continued: What makes a German EV technically superior to a Chinese one? Oooops, hopefully customers won't realize this at some point. Then our industry will be in trouble. Diesel... yes..., but BEV? |

Elon has a problem, he's building more cars than he's selling. ‘What the hell?’: Tesla renting shopping centre, airport car parks as unsold EVs pile up. Tesla is renting out shopping centre car parks to store unsold models as the electric carmaker faces flagging consumer demand and growing competition from cheaper Chinese competitors.It maybe time for a fire sale. |

Our take on the subject. Are electric cars better for the environment than fuel-powered cars? Here's the verdict. Whether you drive an electric car or are considering making the switch, you've probably been drawn into a discussion about whether they are really better for the climate. |

Doesn't bode well... Fatal battery fire ...South Korea is a leading producer of lithium batteries, which are used in many items from electric vehicles to laptops. |

When there are plenty of discounted new 1's sitting in parking areas all over the place now (even shopping centre car parks) waiting for buyers you have to expected this to happen. Trying to sell a second hand Tesla is taking years in some cases and requiring hefty discounts, sparking anger among owners of the once-hot cars. A second hand Tesla that’s been listed for sale for the past four years without finding a buyer offers a stark insight into the challenges faced by Australians trying to offload older used electric vehicles. |

The carnage continues to grow down under. How many will survive? The predicted ‘bloodbath’ in the Australian EV market is happening now and current owners are suffering, new data shows. As the electric vehicle (EV) market heats up, competition is becoming intense, particularly from Chinese automakers. |
