Chelsea and Manchester City were unable to pull off remarkable combacks in the Champions League on Tuesday night, as both sides lost at home to seal their exit from Europe's elite club competition. It was another blow for Liam Rosenior's side, who were this week hit with an academy transfer ban and a fine for breaching rules around payments to agents. The news got fans appealing for clarity having saw similar infringements punished by points deductions, despite Chelsea "self-reporting". Elsewhere, Arsenal saw off Bayer Leverkusen at the Emirates to continue their quest for a quadruple, can it be done? Niall and Joel are on duty on today's FSD to discuss everything.

On today's episode of Quick Charge, a new lawsuit alleges that Tesla was negligent in retaining Elon Musk as CEO, comparing him to a fast-talking salesman and questioning his input into engineering and safety decisions at the struggling EV brand. Plus, we explore the executive exodus at Tesla that began in mid 2024, ask why Tesla cars equipped with FSD are driving people into lakes and through railroad crossings, then take a look at the Rivian R2 and upcoming, mid-sized Tesla Model Y "killers" from Lucid. Are these the most credible threats to Tesla's Model Y dominance in America's EV market, yet, or will Tesla's "negligent" CEO come through on his AI-powered promises?

The first legs of the Champions League last 16 brought the drama this week as goals flew in everywhere, goalies were hooked and ball boys floored as Europe's best duked it out. Spurs' embarrassing season went from worse to embarrassing as Igor Tudor chose to blood 22-year-old Czech goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky at Atletico Madrid, only for the gloveman to make two horrendous errors as Tottenham shipped three in the first 15 minutes. Kinsky was taken off by Tudor and ignored as he went down the tunnel as his side went on to lose 5-2. Chelsea also lost by the same score line in Paris as Pedro Neto took out his frustrations on a stubborn ball boy and Arsenal couldn't get the job done at Bayer Leverkusen, drawing 1-1. Newcastle, Manchester City and Liverpool all failed to win too, meaning the Premier League's coefficient ranking is at threat going into next week's second legs. Marley and Joel are on today's FSD to chat through the headlines.

Over the weekend, it was confirmed that the Premier League met to discuss the potential implementation of a series of new rules, designed to improve the game and stamp out some of the most annoying tendencies that spoil the current offering. A new offside rule, sanctions for throw-ins, MORE power for VAR's and a potential solution for time-wasting through fake injuries were detailed, with trials in Canada in the works for the near future. Niall and Marley are on today's FSD to chat through the potential new rules and whether they'd be accepted by a Premier League audience.

¿Qué es exactamente Tesla FSD (Full Self Driving) y por qué en España solo puede utilizarse en modo supervisado por un profesional? En este episodio explicamos en profundidad cómo funciona el sistema más avanzado de Tesla, qué promete técnicamente y cuál es su situación legal tanto en Estados Unidos como en España. Compartimos la experiencia real probando Tesla FSD en EEUU, donde el sistema tiene mayor despliegue operativo, y la comparamos con la experiencia en España, donde la regulación obliga a mantener supervisión constante. Sensaciones, confianza, intervención humana, anticipación del tráfico y diferencias culturales y normativas que cambian por completo la experiencia. Un análisis técnico y práctico sobre el futuro de la conducción autónoma, los límites regulatorios europeos y lo que realmente puede hacer hoy el sistema FSD frente a lo que muchos creen que hace.

Episode Description: In this episode, we break down the growing controversy around Donut Lab's solid-state battery claims, including third-party VTT test results and the company's response to critics questioning its bold performance numbers. We examine reports that the battery can charge to 80% in just 4.5 minutes and discuss what's verified versus what remains unproven. Tesla is back in the headlines as it appeals a California Autopilot ruling on First Amendment grounds while also facing continued scrutiny over FSD traffic violation data requests from NHTSA. We also cover Tesla's Cybertruck trim price increase timeline and what it signals about demand and strategy. Finally, Ford surprises customers by charging $495 for a frunk on the Mustang Mach-E — and we unpack what that says about feature monetization in the EV space. It's a packed episode filled with battery breakthroughs, legal drama, pricing strategy, and the evolving economics of electric vehicles.

Kilowatt 682: In this episode of Kilowatt, we break down the latest Tesla Cybertruck pricing drama, including Elon Musk's clarification about the now-infamous “10-day” pricing window and the discontinuation of the Cyberbeast Luxe package. We also examine Tesla's updated FSD terms that suggest pricing and features could change at any time — and what that could mean for customers. Then we shift gears into one of the most exciting developments in EV tech: semi-solid-state and lithium-metal battery production. From FAW's 1,000+ km battery claim to QuantumScape's new pilot line and broader industry momentum, solid-state batteries appear to be inching closer to reality. Finally, we highlight encouraging milestones across the battery sector that suggest meaningful progress toward higher energy density, improved safety, and faster charging electric vehicles.

Arsenal blew a 2-0 lead away at bottom side Wolves on Wednesday night to cede further ground in the title race, meaning Man City can now win the league if they win all their remaining games. On the other side of Europe, Newcastle crushed Azerbaijan champions Qarabag 6-1 to all but seal their place in the last 16, thanks to an Anthony Gordon quadruple and some horrendous defending from the hosts. Elsewhere in the Champions League, Benfica's 1-0 loss to Real Madrid was overshadowed by Vinicius Junior alleging that he was racially abused by a Benfica defender in the aftermath of his stunning winning goal.

Description: In this episode, we dive deep into Tesla's long-promised Cybercab as production reportedly begins and Elon Musk claims a sub-$30,000 price tag could arrive this year. We examine conflicting narratives around Tesla's robotaxi progress, including sharp criticism of the program eight months in and fresh timeline promises. Tesla's software push continues with Grok-enabled navigation in Europe and a renewed FSD launch in China backed by a local data center. Meanwhile, Tesla faces mounting pressure overseas, with UK sales plunging as BYD surges ahead and broader EV market share slipping despite overall auto growth. Legacy automakers aren't sitting still either—Ford is lobbying for access to Chinese EV tech, while BYD and Geely eye major North American production capacity. We also cover Polestar's aggressive expansion plans, Cruise's admission over a false pedestrian report, and the evolving EV policy and infrastructure conversation in Manitoba.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1272: Uber drops $100M to power up its autonomous future., Tesla's first Cybercab rolls off the line with no wheel and no pedals — but is FSD ready? Meanwhile, the U.S. military airlifts a next-gen mini nuclear reactor.Uber is doubling down on autonomy with a $100M bet on charging infrastructure, aiming to lock in self-driving scale before competitors do. As Tesla, Waymo, and others race for robotaxi dominance, Uber wants to own the backbone.Uber will invest over $100M to build DC fast-charging hubs at autonomous depots and high-traffic “pit stop” locations.Initial rollout hits the Bay Area, LA, and Dallas before expanding nationwide.Uber is partnering globally with EVgo, Electra, Ionity, and others through “utilization guarantee agreements” to accelerate charger deployment.Tesla's first Cybercab has rolled off the line at Gigafactory Texas — a purpose-built robotaxi with no steering wheel, no pedals, and no human fallback. It's the purest expression yet of Tesla's Full Self-Driving vision… and its biggest bet.Cybercab depends entirely on Tesla's FSD software — the same system currently powering its Austin and San Francisco robotaxi pilots.In Austin, that fleet has logged roughly one crash every 57,000 miles, compared to Tesla's own cited human average of 229,000 miles per crash — raising real questions about Cybercab readiness.Musk says Tesla needs 10 billion miles of data to achieve safe unsupervised driving, a threshold projected around mid-2026 — before additional training, validation, and debugging.The U.S. military just airlifted a next-generation mini nuclear reactor to Utah — the first time a modern modular reactor has flown on a military aircraft. It's part of a broader push to fast-track advanced nuclear for national security and grid resilience.Three C-17s transported Valar Atomics' unfueled Ward 250 reactor to Hill Air Force Base for testing.The system will begin testing at 250 kilowatts and can scale to 5 megawatts — enough to power roughly 5,000 homes.As Utah Gov.

On today's episode, we discuss James's new M‑series iPad and how modern tablets now function as near‑full computers, especially when paired with keyboards, mice, and pro apps like Word and Acrobat. The conversation quickly shifts to Teslas and self‑driving tech, with stories of how fast human driving skills atrophy, how FSD handles rain, potholes, and surprise hazards better than most people, and why the hosts are convinced that within a decade nearly all trucks and many cars will be automated. From there, they zoom out to Elon Musk's broader ambitions: a Moon Base Alpha with domed habitats and rail‑gun satellite launchers, rapid‑reuse rockets, Starlink's dense satellite web, and X as a potential low‑friction global financial platform that could undercut traditional banks while dovetailing with Bitcoin and crypto. Mark breaks down why Bitcoin's mining cost now nears its market value, what that implies about price floors and energy use, and how mining once drove his home power bill to two or three times normal. In the AI segment, the trio tackles autonomous surgery and welding robots, AI‑assisted coding with tools like Claude, Grok, and “vibe code,” social‑media worlds where AI agents train themselves and each other, and the cultural fallout from parasocial AI companions losing the ability to say “I love you.” They close by coining “glass holes” for people abusing smart glasses to record everyone, warning listeners that every profession—from truckers and diesel mechanics to window washers and even medical‑malpractice lawyers—will be reshaped by robots and AI, and urging younger workers to master both their craft and AI tools so they can ride the wave instead of being wiped out by it. Don't miss it!

In Episode 236, Tu and Lei deliver one of their most wide-ranging and revealing conversations yet—covering Tesla's strategic retreat from cars, China's accelerating dominance in EVs, autonomy, and robotics, and unveiling the inaugural China EVs & More Awards - the EViesThe episode opens with Tesla's bombshell earnings call: the Model S and Model X are effectively retired, revenues decline for a second straight year, yet the stock rallies on promises of robotaxis, robotics, and AI abundance. Tu and Lei explain why Wall Street is betting on a future Tesla that is no longer a car company—and why China's crowded robotaxi and robotics markets make that future far less certain than investors believe.They contrast Tesla's promises with reality on the ground in China, where BYD, NIO, XPeng, Huawei, Geely, and Xiaomi are rapidly upgrading ADAS, launching new models, and redefining value. The discussion highlights how Western media is only now “discovering” vehicles like the Xiaomi SU7 and YU7, despite Chinese OEMs offering Model 3/Y-level features at half the price.The second half of the episode introduces the China EVs & More Awards, recognizing the companies, products, and people that defined the year—while exposing who fell behind. From Zombie Company of the Year to EV of the Year, the awards spark debate around survival, execution, and scale in the world's most competitive auto market.The episode closes with a sober look at automation, delivery, labor displacement, and UBI, asking whether autonomy will ultimately create abundance—or social shock—across global mobility systems.Insightful, provocative, and data-driven, this episode explains why China EV Inc. is no longer the future—it's the present.___
This week on Watts in the News, we break down one of the biggest shifts in Tesla's history. Tesla has officially canceled the Model S and Model X, ending new sales as production lines at Fremont are converted to build Optimus humanoid robots. The move signals a major pivot toward AI, robotics, Full Self-Driving (FSD), and Robotaxi, raising big questions about Tesla's long-term direction.We're joined by Tesla legends and YouTubers Bearded Tesla Guy and JoshWest 24/7, who bring firsthand perspective from years of Tesla ownership, long-distance road trips, and a recent FSD drive across the United States. Together, we discuss whether Tesla is moving too fast, whether the company is shifting away from personally owned vehicles, and what this means for future products like Robotaxi, Cybercab, and even the Cybertruck potentially operating autonomously for cargo and logistics.➡️ Tesla Conversation With @BeardedTeslaGuy and @JoshWest247 : https://youtu.be/XS3rPj-LPI4➡️ Jessie's Trip to Sweden with @kempower : https://youtu.be/A-ifvVG_qPc➡️ BowefamilyEV Silverado, Lightning at Gravity at the Tesla V4 Chargers! : https://youtu.be/SHyH59MANtYWe also cover the importance of charging infrastructure at scale. Co-host Jessie shares insights from his upcoming trip to Sweden with Kempower, where he'll see megawatt charging in action, and we discuss why megawatt-level charging is critical for heavy-duty EVs. Plus, we break down Tesla's megawatt charging agreement with Pilot and what it means for the future of electric trucking in North America.From Tesla's vehicle cancellations to Optimus, autonomy, and charging at massive scale — this episode tackles the question: Is Tesla building the future too early, or exactly on time?
Robots, intelligence artificielle, dépendance aux géants américains, nouvelles lois sur Internet… Le mois de janvier a concentré toutes les fractures du numérique. Dans ce Grand Débrief, on prend le temps d'analyser ce que ces signaux disent vraiment de l'avenir de la tech.Le Grand Debrief vous est proposé en partenariat avec Free ProAvec François Sorel (Tech&Co) et Bruno Guglielminetti (Mon Carnet)CES 2026 : un salon moins spectaculaire, mais plus révélateurLe Consumer Electronics Show de Las Vegas a-t-il perdu de sa magie ? Moins d'annonces grand public, moins d'objets “wahou”, mais un salon qui confirme malgré tout plusieurs tendances lourdes : automatisation, robotique, intelligence artificielle omniprésente et montée en puissance des acteurs asiatiques. Bref, un CES 2026 plus sobre mais qui reflète mieux que jamais l'état réel de l'industrie technologique mondiale.- Voitures autonomes : la réalité derrière le fantasmeLes véhicules autonomes avancent vite… mais pas toujours là où on l'imagine. Waymo, Zoox ou Uber multiplient les expérimentations de niveau 4, capables de circuler sans conducteur dans des zones bien définies. En revanche, le niveau 5, celui d'une voiture autonome partout et en toutes circonstances, n'existe toujours pas.Contrairement au discours d'Elon Musk, le FSD de Tesla reste officiellement classé niveau 2, loin des critères d'autonomie totale.- Robots humanoïdes et “IA physique” : le vrai tournantLe CES 2026 a marqué une étape importante : le passage de l'IA logicielle à l'IA incarnée. Robots humanoïdes, machines domestiques intelligentes, automatisation du monde réel… la robotique entre dans un nouveau cycle. Si l'électromécanique et l'équilibre sont désormais maîtrisés, le véritable verrou reste l'intelligence elle-même.Les modèles d'IA actuels sont-ils capables de comprendre le monde physique, ou faudra-t-il changer de paradigme, comme le défend notamment Yann LeCun ?- La Chine, puissance technologique majeureTrès visible cette année à Las Vegas, la Chine n'est plus dans l'imitation mais dans l'exécution rapide et industrielle. Robots aspirateurs, robots humanoïdes, vidéoprojecteurs, électronique grand public : les innovations chinoises s'imposent par leur qualité et leur vitesse de développement. Un basculement stratégique majeur, qui redessine la concurrence mondiale — et interroge la place de l'Europe.Dépendance à la tech américaine : le réveil européen ?Pendant que les patrons de la tech défilaient au Forum économique mondial de Davos, le Parlement européen adoptait une résolution alertant sur la dépendance numérique de l'Europe. Cloud, logiciels, systèmes d'exploitation, IA : que se passerait-il en cas de tension politique majeure avec les États-Unis ? Faut-il craindre un "kill switch" (coupure totale) ou une dégradation des services ? La question n'est plus théorique, notamment après les menaces commerciales de Donald Trump et les débats autour du Cloud Act. Alors, peut-on réellement se passer de la tech américaine… si oui, à quel prix ?Cloud souverain : solution réelle ou illusion juridique ?AWS, Google et Microsoft multiplient les annonces de clouds souverains européens, comme le projet d'AWS European Sovereign Cloud. Mais une entité juridique locale suffit-elle à garantir une indépendance réelle ? Réseaux sociaux interdits aux mineurs : la fin de la récré ?Dernier grand sujet de ce Débrief : la loi française visant à interdire les réseaux sociaux aux moins de 15 ans. Après la loi sur la protection contre les contenus pornographiques, le RGPD, le DSA ou encore le projet Chat Control, la régulation numérique s'intensifie. Sommes-nous en train d'assister à la fin de l'Internet libre tel qu'on l'a connu ou à une tentative nécessaire de protection face à l'addiction, au temps d'écran et aux effets cognitifs sur les plus jeunes ?-----------♥️ Soutien : https://mondenumerique.info/don

Tesla Cancels Model S & X. During yesterday's Tesla earnings call, Elon Musk confirmed that Tesla will end new Model S and Model X sales in Q2, shutting down those production lines to convert them for manufacturing up to 1 million Optimus robots. This marks one of the most dramatic pivots in Tesla's history as the company shifts its focus from flagship vehicles to AI, robotics, and Full Self-Driving (FSD).In this episode, we're joined by special guests @BeardedTeslaGuy and @JoshWest247 two longtime Tesla YouTubers with unmatched perspective. Josh famously completed a cross-Canada road trip in a Model S years ago before moving to the U.S., while Bearded Tesla Guy drove a Cybertruck from Florida to the Arctic Circle. Together, they recently completed an FSD road trip across the United States, giving them a front-row seat to Tesla's autonomous future.We break down what this decision really means, why Tesla is prioritizing Optimus, how FSD fits into Elon Musk's long-term vision, and whether this move signals a fundamental shift away from cars—or the next phase of Tesla's dominance.

In Episode 235, Tu and Lei break down a pivotal week for autonomous driving, global EV competition, and the future of premium automakers—from Silicon Valley to China and Europe. The conversation opens with a surge of AV and robotaxi news: Tesla removing safety drivers in Austin, shifting FSD to a subscription model, and signaling potential approval in China and Europe; Waymo expanding into Miami; DiDi launching a new robotaxi platform in China; and large-scale robo-van ambitions from Mobileye–Volkswagen and Geely's Caocao Mobility. Together, these moves signal that autonomy is no longer experimental—it's scaling.Tu frames autonomy through four lenses: technology readiness, silicon and cloud stacks, regulatory approval, and societal impact, including job displacement and cost reduction through scale. While Tesla remains the benchmark, Chinese players like XPeng, Huawei, and Baidu are rapidly closing the gap—supported by a more permissive regulatory environment in China.The episode then pivots to a blunt assessment of the premium auto sector. Porsche's collapse to ~42,000 units in China, deep price cuts from BMW and Mercedes, and the stark comparison between Porsche's Macan EV and Xiaomi's YU7 highlight how “premium” is being redefined by software, features, and price—not heritage.Tu and Lei argue that the high-margin glory days for German luxury brands are over, not just in China but globally, as Chinese OEMs demonstrate faster iteration, lower costs, and mass-market appeal—especially to younger and female buyers. The discussion closes with battery swapping (BAAS), cold-weather EV realities, and whether Chinese automakers could realistically build trust and scale in North America.Strategic, candid, and forward-looking, this episode explains why autonomy and affordability—not badges—will define the next era of the auto industry.___
It's been a wild week of FSD news, from Tesla discontinuing basic Autopilot on new car purchases to Tesla's CEO saying the price of FSD will go up as unsupervised arrives to unsupervised actually arriving – for the first couple of test cars in the Austin robotaxi fleet, at least. Plus: one insurance company wants to drastically lower the rates of Tesla owners who make frequent use of FSD, the Cybercab gets a camera-related upgrade that Tesla customers have wanted for a while now, and more!

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss Tesla officially removing safety attendants from Robotaxis in Austin, Waymo's commercial launch in Miami, and Serve Robotics' strategic acquisition of Diligent Robotics.It finally happened. Tesla has removed safety attendants from a select group of vehicles in Austin. While this initial fleet is limited and operating in a specific geofence and utilizing chase cars, Grayson and Walt view this as a critical validation of the technology. Looking ahead, Grayson predicts the operational domain will expand significantly in Austin over the next 60 days, with the Phoenix metro region slated as the next target market for deployment. As Tesla went safety attendant-out, Waymoopened the Miami market for limited commercial service within a 60-square-mile area, with one major caveat, no Miami Beach. On the Foreign Autonomy Desk, Grayson and Walt discuss Geely's plan to deploy 100,000 methanol-powered robotaxis in China and the South Korean government's selection of Gwangju as the nation's first dedicated autonomous vehicle testing zone.Episode Chapters0:00 Tesla Removes Safety Attendant in Austin 9:19 Operational Efficiency 10:33 Alex Roy Goes Coast-to-Coast with Zero FSD Interventions 14:15 Drive on FSD, Get a Discount 18:25 FSD is Expanding as Prices are Increasing 23:31 New Robotaxi Markets 24:53 Waymo Launches Miami Markets28:33 Vandalizing Waymo's32:20 Serve Robotics Acquires Diligent Robotics36:41 Foreign Autonomy Desk 39:21 Next WeekRecorded on Friday, January 23, 2026 --------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

Show Notes with links: The Dealertrack Credit Availability Index closed out December at 99.6—its highest reading of 2025 and the strongest level since October 2022. It marks a continued return to pre-pandemic credit conditions, capping off a yearlong trend of easing lending standards.Approval rates rose to 73.7%, up 90 basis points from November and 80 bps from December 2024.Average contract rates dropped from 10.5% to 10.3%, while yield spreads also narrowed—making pricing more attractive for buyers.Subprime lending edged down from 14.3% to 14.1% month-over-month, though still up from 11.8% a year ago.Loans over 72 months grew in share, as consumers stretch payments to keep monthly costs manageable.Captive lenders led the loosening, but banks, credit unions, and finance companies all showed increased flexibility.Starting February 14, Tesla will stop offering its Full Self-Driving (FSD) system as a one-time purchase, moving exclusively to a monthly subscription model, according to CEO Elon Musk.FSD, which still requires active driver supervision, currently costs $8,000 or $99/month.Tesla hasn't said how many users pay for FSD, but Musk once admitted he was "kind of glad" not many bought the lifetime option.The shift may be tied to Musk's compensation package, which includes hitting 10 million active FSD subscriptions.California regulators are still considering suspending Tesla's sales license for 30 days over alleged misleading marketing of FSD capabilities.Tesla has not disclosed how many of its customers have bought or are paying monthly subscriptions for FSD.In its 28th annual Customer Loyalty Engagement Index, Brand Keys found that consumer expectations jumped a record-breaking 32% year-over-year — a shift that's shaking up brand rankings across industries and putting serious pressure on retailers to evolve.Hyundai once again ranked highest among automotive brands for meeting modern consumer expectations — its 17th year holding that title.Nearly 40% of product and service categories saw new leaders emerge, signaling a wave of disruption driven by more demanding buyers.Loyalty continues to deliver ROI: a 5% improvement can boost lifetime customer profits by up to 88%, while a 2% lift can cut marketing costs by nearly 30%.Amazon, Whole Foods, Shell, Ben & Jerry's, and Dollar General were also among the top performers in their categories.“The bottom line: loyalty moves markets.” – Robert Passikoff, President of Brand KeysJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/
