The world of electric vehicles (EVs) might be on the brink of a dramatic shift thanks to a recent discovery from Nyobolt, a promising British startup focused on batteries. This innovation could make the inconvenience of extensive battery-charging durations a thing of the past, bringing electric vehicle convenience closer to that of traditional gas-powered cars.

It Cost Me $55.35 to Charge My Tesla Cybertruck, It’s Cheaper to Drive My Ford F-150

Range is important for all EVs. It’s especially important for electric pickups. For many owners, trucks are still utilitarian vehicles for towing and hauling. And like in combustion pickups, towing and hauling in an EV diminishes the vehicle’s efficiency and range. That 260-mile EPA rating that could eliminate range anxiety in an unladen Hyundai Ioniq 5 could dip in half and make towing a boat a non-starter. Electric trucks need more.

These Electric Pickup Trucks Have The Most Range

Previously, Ford had announced plans to build a three-row battery electric SUV at its Oakville Assembly Plant in Ontario, Canada, in 2025. In April, it pushed the start date for production of that as yet unnamed vehicle back to 2027. At the same time, Ford had suggested the Oakville factory would also become a manufacturing hub for the F-150 Lightning battery electric pickup truck. But now, according to Reuters, the company has decided to move production of its F-Series Super Duty pickup trucks to Oakville and put production of the electric SUV and Lightning on hold until the demand for electric vehicles clarifies itself.

Tesla owner sells his EV after being told it would cost $750 to tow 1 mile

The Tesla Cybertruck is shaking up the electric pickup truck world in a big way, and it's not hard to see why. To put it into numbers, Tesla moved 3,907 Cybertruck in May 2024 alone, making it not just the best-selling electric pickup truck that month, but also the fifth best-selling EV overall. With its wild, futuristic design, the Cybertruck looks like it rolled straight out of a sci-fi movie and onto our streets. But there's more to it than just a cool exterior. This beast of a vehicle is packed with performance power, leaving other electric trucks in the dust with its speed, range, and overall sales.

Here's Why The Tesla Cybertruck Is Dominating The Electric Pickup Truck Segment

The 2025 Chevy Corvette ZR1 got its big debut just a few days ago, revealing a twin-turbo track monster with over 1,000 horsepower. It’s an impressive bit of kit, and the spec sheet is nothing short of astonishing. The question, then, becomes this – what’s the price for entry?

Despite a parade of electric vehicles that can travel more than 300 miles on a charge, range anxiety remains a major hurdle to widespread adoption particularly in the US. There is, however, a “no-duh” antidote to allay fears of being stranded mid-trip: put a charger on the car. While traditional hybrid vehicles use gas to turn the wheels, a new crop of cars are burning it exclusively to charge a large onboard battery. It’s a strategy one might expect from an 8-year-old’s brainstorm, and it’s not a particularly efficient solution or a cheap one. But in an age of janky charging infrastructure and fraught, polarizing politics, electric motors juiced by an onboard, gas-sipping generator could be a killer EV app.

The 2025 Buick Enclave got its big debut this past April, with GM revealing an all-new third generation for the crossover. Among the highlights is new styling, an overhauled interior, bigger dimensions, and a new turbocharged engine. Of course, the fact that the 2025 Enclave only offers a turbocharged four-cylinder may leave some wondering why GM left the V6 in the dust. Now, GM Authority has an answer.
