Imagine if the GM EV1 and the RAV4 EV had made it into normal production. 👻 EVs everywhere, longer ranges, less climate change. https://youtu.be/FjfFEMl-dwI?t=238 #EV #EVHistory

Is the Chevy Bolt a zombie car? 🧟 Still alive, but with production ending soon, it's wandering around groaning "EV brains!" https://youtu.be/FjfFEMl-dwI?t=211 #EV

Once the frosts arrive, is it too late to mow the lawn? 🥔 Nikki has always thought so. https://youtu.be/tWF3p_HJKwI?t=396 #Gardening

Good news from the US: new EV sales fell 40.7% in September, but used EV sales rose 21.2%. With more EVs coming off lease, there's never been a better time for a pre-loved EV. ⚡ https://youtu.be/mc9XkLGWYYM?t=599

Fog lights, an overhead console, the Vectrix VX-1, Mellon, and a new charging station on the way. 🔧 Here's where every one of our projects stands right now. 📺 https://youtu.be/giSrsvWiRiM?t=757 #F150Lightning #EV #DIY

Almost November, and the greenhouse tomatoes are still flowering 🍅 But with nothing left to fertilize them, it's time for winter crops. https://youtu.be/tWF3p_HJKwI?t=258 #Gardening

European plug-in hybrids now emit around six times their official CO₂ figures, costing drivers about €680 a year in extra fuel, says T&E. 🚗💨 https://youtu.be/mc9XkLGWYYM?t=160

What makes a true EV advocate? 🚲⚡ They listen first. Sometimes the right answer is an e-bike, or saving up for the EV that's coming next year. https://youtu.be/HLaFrIUAFUw?t=453 #EV #EVAdvocacy

How far could you ride an electric motorcycle on one charge? 🏍️⚡ A Zero DS just managed 436.5 km (271 miles), Alps to the Med, a new Guinness World Record. Mostly downhill, sure. But would you take that ride? https://youtu.be/NRn__ZjFEwc?t=1757

Is being a superfan of one car brand the same as being an EV advocate? Telling someone they're "not a real EV owner" unless they buy one car just puts people off. https://youtu.be/HLaFrIUAFUw?t=353 #EV #EVAdvocacy

Why are the tomatoes still flowering in mid-October? 🌡️ Tall trees, a hedgerow and the greenhouse make one corner of the garden a little microclimate, sheltered from wind and frost. https://youtu.be/8QMxjLms9Qg?t=310 #Gardening

What's the point of approving a wind farm if you can take it back once it's built? 🌬️ Revolution Wind is already powering homes. Now the Interior Department wants to reconsider its approval. Midterms are just over two weeks away. Are you registered? https://youtu.be/NRn__ZjFEwc?t=810

Ever had a plant turn up where you never planted it? 🥦 A bed left fallow all year now has self-seeded broccoli coming up in it. Sometimes the garden has a mind of its own. https://youtu.be/8QMxjLms9Qg?t=413 #Gardening

Are you an EV owner, an EV driver, or an EV advocate? 🤔 Nikki's been thinking about how we see ourselves in the EV world. Bronze, silver, gold… or are the tiers the other way round? https://youtu.be/HLaFrIUAFUw #EV #ElectricVehicles

Tesla used to sell the future. Now it sells party tricks to people who already own it. #EV #ElectricVehicles #Tesla #ElonNo

Would you buy an electric 2CV for €15,000? 🇫🇷 Peugeot, Renault and Alpine showed retro-inspired concepts in Paris, but Citroën says its new 2CV is coming within two years. Which revival would you want in a showroom? https://youtu.be/NRn__ZjFEwc?t=137

Tesla Roadster: drives upside down. Cool. Now do a bus. 🚌 #EV #ElectricVehicles #Tesla #ElonNo

Nine years late and it still can't take me to the doctor. #EV #ElectricVehicles #Tesla #ElonNo

Things Tesla had time for: 🙃 a car that drives upside down 🚀 rocket thrusters on a sports car Things it didn't: 🚗 the $25k car it's been promising since 2020 Come back when you've figured out how to make things affordable. 😉 #EV #ElectricVehicles #Tesla #ElonNo

It's Saturday and that means TEN! 📺 Is retro the future of EV design? Paris goes retro, the Trump administration tries to un-approve a wind farm that's already built, and Rivian goes Ghostbusters. 👻 https://youtu.be/NRn__ZjFEwc

New post: TEN 603 | Paris Goes Retro, Trump vs Wind (Again), Ghostbuster Rivian! https://www.transportevolved.com/2026/10/17/ten-603-paris-goes-retro-trump-vs-wind-again-ghostbuster-rivian/

Rocket thrusters before an affordable car. Tells you everything. #EV #ElectricVehicles #Tesla #ElonNo

A hypercar you can't legally use on a road, for the kind of person who has a spare quarter-million lying around. Meanwhile the rest of us are choosing between rent, groceries and a doctor's appointment. Read the room. #EV #ElectricVehicles #Tesla #ElonNo
