Had a recent discussion with my mechanic about EVs, he has just completed a course on servicing them. Far more safety regulations than working on an ICE vehicle with the possibility of even more regulations to come to to fire hazards. He also mentioned something I hadn’t heard before that you should not fast charge anymore than twice a week as this will have a detrimental effect on recharge cycle life, lessen battery life.
He also made enquires re a new Kia EV6 battery replacement, a cool 48k. ( seems incredibly high to me) Average hybrid battery replacements 3.5k to 7k.

I read that Rivan in the US are also cutting staff. It also appears that Europe is also seeing a decline in EV sales. Interesting to see what happens next..

Video has captured the incredible moment a massive octopus with three metre-long tentacles grabbed a scuba diver’s hand and led her to a secret shrine.

I thought it was very obvious.

He is in the US so it should be a left hand drive  ;D

No - he doesn't need a helmet - The Donald is clear evidence of why Americans don't need to wear helmets. :-*
