Electric vehicles (EVs) have historically been more expensive than cars with an internal combustion engine (ICE) or even a hybrid. In recent years, however, EV prices have been coming down due to increased competition, more available models, and also lower material costs. Of course, government incentives also play a role, and how much revenue automakers are willing to reduce on a certain EV model, like General Motors and its strategy to introduce variable profits, as it aims to sell more EVs than ever.

Here's When The Toyota RAV4 Hybrid Becomes More Expensive Than The Tesla Model Y

Kia wants to build a slew of models on the Hyundai Motor Group's E-GMP dedicated EV platform, and next on the menu are smaller, more affordable, front-wheel-drive-based cars. That includes the Kia EV3 crossover that's getting a ton of hype, but one sedan—expected to go on sale in Korea, Europe and North America—is set to gun for the Tesla Model 3.

The Kia EV4 Aims To Undercut The Tesla Model 3

Like a Tesla battery during a cold winter, buyer satisfaction with the Elon Musk-helmed vehicles has declined compared to a year ago. A new report from the prestigious JD Power's long-running US Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) study shows that Tesla has slipped a full nine points in satisfaction to 878 points for 2023 versus 2022 — while more established luxury brands like Jaguar (887), Land Rover (883), and Porsche (883) landed on top.

Having fewer moving parts makes an electric vehicle more mechanically reliable than a combustion engine car. EVs don’t need oil changes, their brake pads last longer, and electric drive units require less attention than engines. This seems to hold up in the real world too, as exemplified by Tesla, which only sells electric vehicles and has the lowest maintenance costs, according to Consumer Reports.

A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

4 Most Expensive Cars for High Mileage Adventures

We’ve called the Nissan Kicks a “working-class hero” for a reason. While it hasn’t always been the sportiest small crossover SUV, there is a lot to like at its intersection of size, affordability, and efficiency. Despite its strong value, the Kicks' styling has been nothing to sneeze at. The second-generation 2025 Nissan Kicks brings a whole new, wholly elevated design; a more powerful engine; and for the first time, the option for all-wheel-drive. Surely all this newness will cost you more money, and the whole value thing will just go out the window—won't it?

After disappearing from the U.S. in 2012, the Ford Ranger wound up returning to those same shores for the 2019 model year – albeit, as a larger, mid-size pickup. In recent months, those last-gen compact Ford Ranger models have become increasingly common sights on collector car auction sites, with nice, low-mile examples seemingly coming out of the proverbial woodwork. Now, that list has expanded yet again, this time, to include a very nice 2009 Ford Ranger XL.

It's not a big surprise that the manual-transmission SUV is next up on the chopping block for vehicles sending the manual the way of the dodo. The appeal of the manual gearbox largely has to do with driver engagement. The appeal of the sports utility vehicle is mostly down to convenience in the modern automotive landscape. These two qualities are, if not incompatible, at least difficult to counterbalance. Then you add cost concerns into the mix, and it's easy to see why SUV makers would rather avoid spending millions developing a new stick shift and passing the expenses on to the buyer in a segment that frequently competes on price alone.

The first Jaguars were produced in 1935 in England and, since then, the auto brand has made a name for itself among luxury buyers.
