The rise of autonomous vehicles (AVs) and drones is transforming transportation and logistics. From robotaxis to last-mile drone deliveries, these developing technologies promise lower costs, greater efficiency, and potentially safer roads. But how safe are they,...

The recently announced 2024 Autumn Budget has introduced a suite of measures that will significantly affect motorists, from electric vehicle (EV) owners to those sticking with internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. The budget will result in key changes which have...

As the shift to electric vehicles (EVs) gains momentum, the challenge of managing end-of-life EV batteries has become increasingly pressing - particularly as industries strive to adopt circular manufacturing practices to curb energy use and waste. By safeguarding the...

Last month, diesel and petrol car sales dropped by 20% and 14% respectively while around 30,000 electric vehicles (EVs) were sold - an increase of 25% on October 2023 despite overall sales falling by 6%. Clearly, many drivers are switching to or considering changing...

A team of scientists from the Georgia Institute of Technology has uncovered a new cathode material that could dramatically reduce the cost of batteries for electric vehicles while providing the same performance and range - dramatically transforming the EV market. The...

When the first wheel was developed in around 3500BC it was a simple, curved piece of wood. Later, strips of leather were added to the wood in an effort to make the ride softer and eventually leather was replaced by solid rubber which worked well enough when the cars...

While battery electric vehicles (BEVs) are usually considered to be more energy efficient, more economical, produce zero direct emissions, benefit from the convenience of home charging points, require lower maintenance, are faster than ICEs, are quiet and easy to...

Because energy saved over a car journey means that range is increased, or the same distance is covered more economically, manufacturers are constantly looking for ways to improve energy efficiency. Nissan’s new ‘cool paint’ uses heat-reflective technology which can,...

A pure, electric A6 sixth generation driving experience for customers with a 450 mile range. Available in 2025, the new Audi A6 e-tron offers fully electric, single or dual motored Sportback or Avant body styles and is pitched to be a direct competitor to BMW’s i5 and...

According to a recent survey on autonomous vehicles, around 66% of US drivers express fear about fully autonomous vehicles and another 25% express uncertainty. And yet despite this, interest in advanced driver assistance systems remains high. Well-publicised incidents...
