There are plenty of e-bikes that focus on performance. Plenty that focus on tech. And plenty that lean into affordability.
But every now and then, a bike comes along that feels more like a piece of art than a machine.
Tesla’s actual retail sales in China crashed 16% year-over-year in Q1 2026, with March alone plunging 24% — despite several media outlets reporting that Tesla’s China numbers were up for the quarter.

Musk posted the claim today in response to a user’s detailed review of FSD v14.3 after 600+ miles of testing. He acknowledged that “point releases will bring polish” to the current version before projecting that V15, the next major release, will achieve what every previous version was supposed to achieve.
VW says it will stop building the ID.4 in the US, and instead replace it with production of a gas-guzzling, pollution-spewing, 18mpg three row land yacht instead.
