Podcasts about EV

Why did a major automaker slam the brakes on its EV ambitions? What happens when a trade deal decades in the making collides with farmers in the streets?

Join Robert Llewellyn, Jack Scarlett, and Imogen Bhogal for a special year-end wrap-up as they take a mystery tour through the biggest moments of 2025, from unforgettable shoots, to the clean tech stories that really mattered, and share their bold predictions for what's coming in 2026. They kick things off by debunking the myth that EV sales are collapsing, revealing that global battery-electric vehicle sales are actually up 19% year-on-year. From there, the trio dive into their personal "Magic Money Tree" dream garages, featuring the Polestar 5, Kia EV9, the gloriously childish Ioniq 6 N, and Jack's verdict on the potentially game-changing BMW iX3.  There are also behind-the-scenes stories from some of the year's most memorable shoots — including the legendary solar safari in Namibia and the huge electric ferry project in Hobart. To wrap up, the team looks ahead to 2026, with predictions on a potential British automotive revival, the long-awaited arrival of truly affordable small EVs and whether Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology is finally ready for the mainstream. Whether you've followed Every episode or you're dropping in for the first time, thank you for being a part of the journey and a very merry Christmas and peaceful New Year! 00:00:10 – Introduction 00:01:46 – Busting the "EV Sales Slowdown" Myth 00:07:06 – The "Magic Money Tree" Garage 00:14:15 – 2025 Shoot Highlights: Microlino & Electric Motorcycles 00:16:28 – Jack's Standout Cars of the Year: BMW iX3 & Kia PV5 00:19:25 – Robert's Picks: Polestar 5 & The New Nissan Leaf 00:23:36 – The Baked Bean Digression 00:25:14 – Imogen's Highlights: Solar Safari & Electric Farming 00:32:32 – Robert's Highlight: The Giant Electric Ferry 00:37:01 – Live Show Reflections: Sydney & Melbourne 00:45:18 – Jack's 2026 Predictions: British Auto & Fun Small EVs 00:49:15 – Robert's 2026 Prediction: Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) 00:53:11 – The Economics of Clean Energy 00:57:50 – Final Reflections & Outro Why not come and join us at our next Everything Electric expo: https://everythingelectric.show Check out our sister channel Everything Electric CARS: https://www.youtube.com/@fullychargedshow Support our StopBurningStuff campaign: https://www.patreon.com/STOPBurningStuff Become an Everything Electric Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fullychargedshow Buy the Fully Charged Guide to Electric Vehicles & Clean Energy : https://buff.ly/2GybGt0 Subscribe for episode alerts and the Everything Electric newsletter: https://fullycharged.show/zap-sign-up/ Visit: https://FullyCharged.Show Find us on X: https://x.com/Everyth1ngElec Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/officialeverythingelectric To partner, exhibit or sponsor at our award-winning expos email: commercial@fullycharged.show   Everything Electric SYDNEY - Sydney Olympic Park 6th, 7th & 8th March 2026 EE NORTH (Harrogate) - 8th & 9th May 2026 EE WEST (Cheltenham) - 12th & 13th June 2026 EE GREATER LONDON (Twickenham) - 11th & 12th Sept 2026 #fullychargedshow #everythingelectricshow #homeenergy #cleanenergy #battery #electriccars #electric-vehicles-uk

Send me a messageWhat if sustainability didn't rely on good intentions, ESG reports, or awareness campaigns… but on incentives that actually change behaviour?In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I'm joined by Sunny Lu, Founder and CEO of VeChain, to unpack how blockchain can move sustainability from theory into action across global supply chains and everyday decisions.Sunny has been building in blockchain since 2015, long before the hype cycles, starting with enterprise traceability work at Louis Vuitton and going on to create VeChain as a platform focused on real-world adoption. At a time when supply chains are under pressure to deliver resilience, transparency, and credible sustainability outcomes, this conversation gets very practical, very quickly.You'll hear how VeChain uses verified data, tokens, and gamification to incentivise positive actions, from EV charging and reusable cups to food traceability and waste reduction. We break down why demand, not technology, is often the real bottleneck holding sustainable supply chains back, and how aligning individuals, enterprises, and incentives can unlock scale. You might be surprised to learn how blockchain has already helped cut food traceability times from hours to seconds, or how millions of small, verified actions can add up to meaningful carbon, water, and plastic reductions.This isn't a conversation about crypto speculation. It's about trust, data, visibility, and designing systems that make the right choice the easy, economically rational one.

Tesla's more luxurious, longer-wheelbase, six-seat Model Y L looks set to enter another new region, setting it up for a potential global rollout sooner rather than later.

As the end of the year rolls up on us, we attempt a little personalized year-in-review, looking back at 2025 without dwelling on the various tech crises we've already talked about ad nauseam. Instead we focus on things we thought were cool or uplifting this year, including Will's ongoing Linux desktop adventures, the inevitability of electric cars (and bicycles), when it's worth it to buy the good earbuds, convenience improvements in screen protectors, rediscovering the joy of CRTs and nerdy community, plus some listener nominations and a couple of Andy Rooney-esque rants for good measure.Linux Unplugged podcast on bcachefs: https://linuxunplugged.com/644Switch 2 grips Will mentioned: https://amzn.to/48IpFXE Support the Pod!

The conservative movement is officially at war. This weekend at TPUSA's "AmericaFest" in Phoenix—the first since the tragic loss of Charlie Kirk—the tensions finally boiled over. Ben Shapiro took the stage to blast Tucker Carlson for "moral imbecility," while Tucker fired back at the "hall monitors" trying to deplatform him. Tom Pappert (The Tennessee Star) joins me to break down the most explosive weekend in the history of the movement and what it means for the 2026 midterms. Then, we look at the other "war" happening this week: The war on reality. A new report exposes that the Census Bureau is refusing to count $1.4 trillion in welfare payments as income. If they did, the poverty rate would drop from 10% to 1%. We are bankrupting the nation to solve a problem that—statistically—doesn't exist. Plus, the "Lightning" has struck out. Ford officially killed the F-150 Lightning this week, taking a $19.5 billion write-down. Jon Miltimore is here to explain why the free market just delivered the ultimate rebuke to the Green New Deal. And finally... whatever happened to the office Christmas party? We look at why HR departments killed the "bacchanal" and why Gen Z is the only generation trying to bring it back. Today's Show: Monologue: The "Sanitized" Society. From Christmas parties to poverty stats, we are being fed a fake version of reality. The $1.4 Trillion Lie: Breaking down the Phil Gramm & John Early report. Why a single mom earning $11k actually has more disposable income ($64k) than a starting teacher. Ford Surrenders: The F-150 Lightning is dead. Jon Miltimore on the dealer revolt, the aluminum fire, and the end of the EV mandate. Civil War in Phoenix: Tom Pappert takes us inside the room for the Shapiro vs. Carlson showdown. Who does the base side with?

What would happen if your power went out for days… or longer? In this episode of https://FixItRadio.com, host John Rush, joined by Larry Younger, dives into the reality of winter outages and what homeowners can do right now to be prepared. Are rolling blackouts the new normal? Do you really need a whole-home generator—or is there a smarter, more affordable way to keep the lights on? Listeners from across the country called in with real-world experiences. What happens when high winds knock out both power and water? Would a propane generator keep your home running? And if the grid goes down, will natural gas still flow when you need it most? Then, Jerzee Joe shares practical tips from years of generator ownership—annual maintenance, load management, and even why a simple UPS battery backup could save your computer (and your work) in a split second. John also breaks down options like portable generators, battery power stations such as Jackery, EV backup potential, and whole-home systems from brands like Generac—plus why maintenance and fresh fuel matter more than most people realize. What do you really need to run in an outage? Heat? Water? Refrigeration? Medical equipment? And how much power is enough? This fast-paced, real-life discussion challenges you to rethink preparedness, protect your home's value, and take control before the next storm hits. Are you ready when the grid goes down?

In this episode, Scott Becker discusses why investors are increasingly valuing Tesla for its broader platform including robotaxis rather than just its core EV business.

Tesla (TSLA) experienced a bumpy road in 2025 even though the stock recently hit all-time highs. George Tsilis talks about Tesla's evolution as an energy and EV company, along with its acceleration in autonomous driving through robotaxi and robotics like Optimus. One chief criticism Tesla always receives: its valuation. George explains why sales remain a key question for analysts compared to the Mag 7 giant's stock price.

This week on America on the Road, Jack Nerad and co-host Chris Teague test two cars that are about as different as two cars can be — the 2026 Lexus LC 500 and the 2026 Toyota Prius. In the news and comment section, Jack and Chris break down major shifts in the global auto industry as electric vehicle sales slow and automakers adjust their plans. The show also features a deep dive into new pickup and EV technology, and an in-depth interview with Mazda launch strategy expert Jon Leverett.

In this episode, Scott Becker discusses why investors are increasingly valuing Tesla for its broader platform including robotaxis rather than just its core EV business.

On this episode of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, host Malcolm Harris breaks down the biggest stories shaping freight as we head toward the end of 2025. Malcolm covers major industry headlines including the pending Union Pacific–Norfolk Southern rail merger, long-term investment at the Port of New York and New Jersey, consolidation in auto transport logistics, and a high-profile cargo theft case that underscores ongoing risk across the supply chain. The show features an in-depth conversation with Valentina Jordan, CEO and co-founder of Nauta, and Rafa Santiago, COO and co-founder, as they unveil Nauta's AI-powered inventory optimization engine. They explain how SKU-level visibility, harmonized data, and agentic AI workflows are helping shippers reduce stockouts, improve fill rates, and create more predictable freight flows that benefit truckers, 3PLs, and brokers alike. The discussion explores real-world customer wins, faster time to value, and how better inventory planning leads to smoother routes, consistent loads, and stronger revenue across the network.

This week, a major American automaker announced a significant write-down on its investments in electric vehicles (EVs). Does this mean the company overinvested or simply invested too early? Are American consumers fundamentally resistant to EVs? Or have various governments pushed EVs faster than the sector, market and infrastructure can truly support? In this week's Trading Perspectives, Sam Clement and John Norris discuss the current turmoil in the domestic EV sector and make some predictions about what the future may hold.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1223: Cars Commerce lines up its next CEO as a new chapter begins for dealer tech. Lucid's factory-backed used pricing puts EV depreciation in plain sight. And even as consumers keep spending this holiday season, a growing “joy deficit” reveals how tired—and cautious—shoppers really are.Show Notes with links:Our good friends at Cars Commerce are teeing up a major leadership transition. Longtime CEO Alex Vetter will hand the keys to Tobias “Tobi” Hartmann in early 2026, marking the end of an era and signaling a renewed push around growth, digital tools, and AI for dealers.Hartmann brings 25+ years of experience leading global marketplaces, most recently as CEO of Scout24 and previously at HelloFresh and eBay Enterprise.Alex Vetter, who has been with Cars.com since its 1998 launch, will step down after transforming the company into a vertical SaaS and marketplace platform for dealers.Under Vetter, Cars Commerce expanded through acquisitions like Dealer Inspire, AccuTrade, and DealerClub, strengthening its dealer-facing tech stack.Alex Vetter: “I'm confident that Tobi will continue our momentum for the next chapter of firsts. He will be a tremendous leader for this next phase of growth.”Lucid just launched its first factory-backed used-car program, and the pricing is doing more talking than the marketing.Lucid Recharged is the brand's certified pre-owned program for the Air sedan, with the Gravity SUV coming later.Eligible cars must be single-owner examples under 62,000 miles and pass a 160+ point factory inspection.Pricing is the headline: a 2023 Air Pure with ~20,000 miles can land in the mid-$40Ks versus a new MSRP just under $71K.Consumers are still spending this holiday season—but they're not exactly enjoying it as a new Retail Dive report says shoppers are leaning heavily on credit and BNPL.Katie Thomas of the Kearney Consumer Institute summed it up bluntly: there's a “real joy deficit for consumers,” driven by high prices and constant anxiety-focused messaging.Despite steady spending, consumers are fatigued, stressed, and increasingly reliant on credit, resale, and “dupe” gifting to get through the holidays.Shoppers feel stuck in an echo chamber of stress—online, in ads, and in daily life—where everything is expensive and brands keep reminding them of it.“Getting emotional doesn't have to be serious,” Thomas noted0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier6:05 Cars Commerce Announces Leadership Transition9:52 Lucid Launches CPO Program12:31 The Joy Deficit In RetailThank you to today's sponsor, Mia.

Top Stories for December 18th Publish Date: December 18th PRE-ROLL: SUGAR HILL ICE SKATING From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, December 18th and Happy birthday to Keith Richards I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Arizona developer building 300-plus apartments in Peachtree Corners' Technology Park First buildings underway at Sugarloaf Crest in Lawrenceville GGC celebrates future nurses during pinning ceremony Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on saturated fats All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: GCPS Hiring-Villa Rica Wonderland Train STORY 1: Arizona developer building 300-plus apartments in Peachtree Corners' Technology Park Technology Park Atlanta, a hub for Fortune 500 companies and tech innovators, is about to get a residential twist. Soon, it won’t just be a place to work—it’ll be home for hundreds. Alliance Residential Company, the Arizona-based developer behind Broadstone Peachtree Corners, has snagged 10.7 acres in the park to build Broadstone Innovation, a 326-unit apartment community set to open in spring 2027. Think sleek, modern living: a salt sauna, red-light therapy pods, a resort-style pool, EV chargers, and even a food truck zone. STORY 2: First buildings underway at Sugarloaf Crest in Lawrenceville Parkland Residential has kicked off vertical construction at Sugarloaf Crest, a new build-to-rent community in Gwinnett County. What’s that mean? Townhomes—67 of them—are going up on 5.2 acres, complete with a big central green space. Located on Sugarloaf Parkway, right next to Richards Middle and Cedar Hill Elementary, these two- and three-bedroom homes are designed for modern living: open layouts, sleek kitchens, walk-in closets, and even washers and dryers included. The three-bedroom units? They’ve got lofts and nearly 2,000 square feet of space. STORY 3: GGC celebrates future nurses during pinning ceremony In a room buzzing with pride and emotion, 39 nursing students at Georgia Gwinnett College celebrated their pinning ceremony—a moment that marks the leap from student to nurse. “Y’all, it’s been two years!” joked Merick Sanogo, the class speaker, earning laughs and cheers. His classmates surprised him with a pineapple, a nod to his quirky tradition of gifting one on every birthday. The ceremony, steeped in tradition, included the lighting of the Nightingale Lamp and the Nurse Pledge. For Prudence Donald, an international student from Tanzania, it was a dream realized. “If you can dream it, you can achieve it,” she said.

We’ll be right back Break 2: 07.14.22 KIA MOG- DTL HOLIDAY STORY 4: Freight rail line from coast to northwest Georgia reports record traffic Georgia’s freight rail line from the Port of Savannah to Murray County just hit a record: nearly 4,000 containers moved in November, a 35% jump from last year. Seven CSX trains a week now roll through the Appalachian Regional Port near Chatsworth, cutting truck traffic—and emissions—in metro Atlanta. Opened in 2018, the inland port is fueling growth in northwest Georgia. A UGA study found it added 5,600 jobs in Dalton, Rome, and beyond over two years. And there’s more to come: the $127 million Blue Ridge Connector, opening next spring, promises to expand rail capacity even further. STORY 5: GGC's Devontre Chaney, Brasen James Earn Continental Athletic Conference Awards Georgia Gwinnett College juniors Devontre Chaney and Brasen James just snagged Continental Athletic Conference Player of the Week honors after leading the Grizzlies to a big road win. Chaney? He was unstoppable—15 points, 15 boards, and eight assists. Oh, and he went 9-for-10 at the line. That’s his seventh double-double this season. The guy’s averaging 15.9 points and 10.2 rebounds. James locked it down defensively, holding his matchup to just six points (16 below average) while adding 14 of his own. FALCONS: As the Falcons limp toward the end of a rough 2025 season, the big question looms: will Raheem Morris and Terry Fontenot keep their jobs? Atlanta’s 5-9 record doesn’t inspire much confidence, even after Thursday’s wild 29-28 comeback win over Tampa Bay. Sure, it was fun—rallying from 14 down in the fourth quarter—but in the grand scheme? It’s meaningless. The playoffs are out of reach, even in the laughable NFC South. Despite a 13-18 record, failed coaching hires, and some head-scratching moves (what was that with Ike Hilliard?), Morris has the locker room behind him. Bijan Robinson, for one, is all in. Owner Arthur Blank will have a tough call to make. Morris says it’s about building for next year, but will he get the chance? Three games remain—Arizona, the Rams, and the Saints. If the Falcons finish strong, maybe Morris gets another shot. And now here is Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on saturated fats We’ll have closing comments after this Break 3: Ingles Markets 10 Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

On this episode of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, host Malcolm Harris breaks down the biggest stories shaping freight as we head toward the end of 2025. Malcolm covers major industry headlines including the pending Union Pacific–Norfolk Southern rail merger, long-term investment at the Port of New York and New Jersey, consolidation in auto transport logistics, and a high-profile cargo theft case that underscores ongoing risk across the supply chain. The show features an in-depth conversation with Valentina Jordan, CEO and co-founder of Nauta, and Rafa Santiago, COO and co-founder, as they unveil Nauta's AI-powered inventory optimization engine. They explain how SKU-level visibility, harmonized data, and agentic AI workflows are helping shippers reduce stockouts, improve fill rates, and create more predictable freight flows that benefit truckers, 3PLs, and brokers alike. The discussion explores real-world customer wins, faster time to value, and how better inventory planning leads to smoother routes, consistent loads, and stronger revenue across the network. Later in the episode, Malcolm is joined in studio by Virind Gujral, CEO and founder of EV Bots. Virind shares his journey from fleet operations to building autonomous robotic solutions for EV fleet charging. He explains how EV Bots is tackling one of the biggest barriers to electric fleet adoption by eliminating driver downtime, optimizing charging costs, and automating vehicle inspections and maintenance checks. The conversation dives into Chattanooga's growing innovation ecosystem, pilot deployments, and what the future holds for electric fleets and logistics automation.

A deal that would see the Humana Building, at 500 W. Main Street, redeveloped as a large hotel, seems to be cooking behind the scenes.LBF Senior Reporter Joel Stinnett broke the story recently and joins us on the Access Louisville podcast to tell us about what he's learned. As reported on Dec. 12, Louisville-based Poe Cos. is in the planning stages to convert the 26-story Humana Building into a 1,000-room hotel, according to multiple sources familiar with the project. The tower is located at 500 W. Main St., near Louisville's Belvedere, Museum Row and the KFC Yum Center. To reach 1,000 rooms, an additional tower may be constructed behind the existing tower, near or where The Exchange office space and Vincenzo's restaurant now sit, according to at least one source. The existing tower would be converted to house the majority of the rooms, the sources said.On the show, Stinnett tells us how his reporting on the matter came together, other projects the Poe Cos. has in the works and what the needs look like with hotels in Downtown Louisville. We also go over what might happened next. Later in the show we chat about the landscape for electric vehicles going forward. This is in the wake of the news that Ford is pulling back on EV plans, dissolving its battery manufacturing venture with SK On (called BlueOvalSK) and repurposing its recently opened battery manufacturing facility in Glendale, Kentucky. As part of the repurposing, BlueOvalSK is laying off all its Glendale workers. A Ford subsidiary plans to takeover the plant and repurpose it for battery energy storage. It's a complicated situation for the automaker being as it just announced a new manufacturing platform at Louisville Assembly Plant in August in support of a new midsize EV pickup truck with a $30,000 price tag (low for the EV market.) Plans for that truck are still on, Ford says.Access Louisville is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First. You can follow it on popular podcast services including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

In today's Daily Fix:Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma has commented on the collaboration between Koei Tecmo and Nintendo on the Hyrule Warriors games. Aonuma said that while he hoped the next main series Zelda game would be the Switch 2's first, some elements from Age of Imprisonment did inspire parts of his upcoming game. In Xbox news, the actor who portrayed Joanna Dark in the cancelled Perfect Dark reboot said she did 'entire chapters' of mocap for the game. She confirmed there was a plan to salvage a 'slimmed' down version, but ultimate the project was cancelled. And finally, the upcoming Honda Afeela car will be able to remotely play PlayStation 5 consoles, provided you have a PS5 turned on at home, similar to how the PlayStation Portal's remote play works.. The upcoming EV, produced in collaboration with Sony, is up for pre-order now for the low price of $89,900.

In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Ford on Monday said it is pulling back on its electric vehicle plans, a move that will result in a $19.5 billion charge against its earnings to be taken mostly in the current quarter. The pullback on its EV plans also means its flagship electric vehicle, the F150 Lightning, will be on hold indefinitely. Ford said the next generation of the F150 will have a 700-mile range and improved heavy-duty towing. Also commentary on fossil fuels, climate change and green energy.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1222: Today we break down Cox Automotive's 2026 forecast and why fragmentation is becoming the industry's defining theme. We also cover California regulators taking aim at Tesla's Autopilot language.Show Notes with links:Cox Automotive says the auto industry beat expectations in 2025, but 2026 will be shaped by fragmentation everywhere—from consumers and labor to policy, EVs, and AI. The result is softer volumes, tighter margins, and a market that rewards precision over optimism.The 5 big forces at play: A bifurcated consumer trading down, a stagnant job market, inflation easing but Fed uncertainty lingering, shifting policy and an EV incentive cliff, and AI hitting an operational inflection point—all pulling the market in different directions.New-vehicle volumes reset lower: Cox forecasts 15.8 million SAAR in 2026, down 2.4% YoY, signaling the high-15 million range as the new normal rather than a temporary dip.Retail, fleet, and leasing cool: New retail sales fall about 1.5%, fleet declines more sharply, and lease penetration drops toward 21%, the lowest level in three years as EV tax credits and leasing loopholes disappear.Used remains the pressure valve: Total used sales dip roughly 1%, but tight retail inventory and affordability concerns keep demand steady, pushing more shoppers toward lower-priced vehicles.Wholesale values normalize: Cox expects the Manheim Used Vehicle Value Index to rise 2% by the end of 2026, pointing to normal depreciation—with growing EV volume adding pricing complexity.California regulators ruled Tesla misled consumers with its “Autopilot” and “Full Self-Driving” marketing, giving the automaker 90 days to fix its language. The case briefly threatened Tesla's ability to sell cars in the state, but stops short of halting production.The DMV ordered a 30-day suspension of Tesla's dealer license, which would prevent Tesla from selling vehicles directly to consumers in California if it goes into effect.That dealer suspension is stayed for 90 days, meaning Tesla can keep selling cars as long as it updates its advertising and disclosures within that window.A separate manufacturing license suspension—which could have affected Tesla's ability to build vehicles in California—was permanently stayed and will not take effect.Regulators say Tesla's use of “Autopilot” and “Full Self-Driving Capability” implied autonomy that doesn't exist, creating unsafe assumptions for drivers.Tesla pushed back strongly, saying no consumer complained and stating, “Tesla has never misled consumers.”Thank you to today's sponsor, Mia.

Jason Isaac, CEO of the American Energy Institute, takes a hard look at the growing costs of the electric vehicle push. He explains how Ford's EV experiment has resulted in roughly $20 billion in losses, while GM's leadership continues to double down on costly EV investments despite weakening demand. Isaac argues that government mandates and ideological energy policies are forcing automakers into risky decisions that threaten jobs, affordability, and consumer choice, and warns that ignoring market reality could have serious consequences for America's auto industry and energy future.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) President Trump prepares to address the nation tonight, fueling speculation about what he may announce. Bryan walks through the most likely possibilities, from the economy and falling inflation to explosive new revelations showing the Biden DOJ pushed ahead with the Mar-a-Lago raid despite FBI warnings that no probable cause existed. Trump may also signal major changes on marijuana policy or escalate pressure on Venezuela, as the White House orders a blockade of oil tankers that could trigger cascading unrest in Caracas and Havana. Abroad, China hardens its grip on the Panama Canal by blocking US-led efforts to reclaim port operations, raising the stakes for American naval access. Trump counters Beijing's influence by naming Peru a major non-NATO ally, part of a broader strategy to lock down South America's Pacific coast alongside new conservative governments in Chile and Ecuador. In Europe, the Green Revolution falters as Brussels backs away from banning combustion engines and Ford writes down nearly $20 billion after abandoning its electric truck push.
