Tesla is supposed to imminently unveil its new Roadster after years of delays
Tesla CEO Elon Musk claims the long-awaited next-generation Roadster will finally be unveiled by the end of the month, which is days away. If it actually happens, it would come nearly nine years after the original prototype was first shown in November 2017.
We’ve been down this road before — many, many times. Here’s the latest on where things stand and how we got here.
Tesla submits plans for first Robotaxi-only Supercharger stations
Tesla has submitted permit applications for two private Supercharger stations in Arizona that would be dedicated exclusively to its Robotaxi fleet — marking the first time the automaker has planned charging infrastructure specifically for autonomous vehicles.
The filings, discovered in municipal records in Chandler and Mesa, call for V4 Supercharger stalls that will not be open to the public.
New state law could legalize grey area e-bikes but complicates other electric bike rules
A new bill in Minnesota is taking aim at one of the fastest-growing gray areas in micromobility: high-powered electric two-wheelers that blur the line between e-bikes and motorcycles.
Volvo electric semi scores another real-world win with Coca-Cola
Pepsi may grab headlines with their Tesla tie-in, but arch rival Coca-Cola is quietly building an electric truck fleet of its own, and its Canadian fleet of bright red Volvo VNR Electric semis has just grown to more than forty!
Uber (UBER) now owns 11.5% of Lucid (LCID): it gets interesting
A new SEC filing reveals that Uber Technologies has become a major shareholder of Lucid Group, holding 37.7 million shares of Class A common stock — an 11.5% ownership stake that makes the ride-hailing giant one of Lucid’s largest investors outside the Saudi Public Investment Fund.
The filing, a Form 3 submitted to the SEC on April 20 with an event date of April 14, confirms that Uber has crossed the 10% ownership threshold after pouring a total of $500 million into the struggling EV maker as part of their expanding robotaxi partnership.
Tesla (TSLA) Q1 2026 earnings preview: the growth story is dead
Tesla (TSLA) will release its first-quarter 2026 financial results tomorrow (April 22) after the market close, with a conference call to follow. Despite leadership continuing to push the narrative that Tesla is now an “AI and robotics company,” the automotive business still drives the vast majority of Tesla’s financial performance.
Let’s look at what Wall Street and retail investors are expecting.
Tesla Robotaxi expansion, heavy duty EVs, and last week’s pain at the pump
On today’s pumped-up episode of Quick Charge, we notice how funny it is that Tesla makes a big Robotaxi announcement every time the TSLA earnings call looks like a disappointment.
Tesla Cybertruck becomes first AC vehicle-to-grid asset in California through PG&E
PG&E and Tesla have announced that the Cybertruck is now approved to sell power back to California’s grid through the utility’s residential Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) pilot program. The approval comes with up to $4,500 in incentives toward equipment and installation costs.
What makes this notable: it’s the first time California has approved an AC-based vehicle-to-grid system for residential use — a technically simpler and cheaper approach than the DC-based setups that Ford and GM rely on in the same pilot.
Tesla settles another wrongful death lawsuit, but not about Autopilot this time

Plaintiffs alleged that a Tesla technician disabled a speed limiter without parental consent.
The settlement, with undisclosed terms, was confirmed Monday just as jury selection was set to begin in Broward County court.
