David Welch, Detroit Bureau Chief, Bloomberg joined Grayson Brulte on The Road to Autonomy podcast to discuss GM's return to autonomy and the company's long-term strategy for personally owned autonomous vehicles.As GM once again re-enters the autonomous vehicle market, the company is signaling a new chapter, one centered on developing a hands-free, eyes-free driving system under the leadership of Chief Product Officer Sterling Anderson, beginning with the 2028 Cadillac Escalade IQ.GM's evolution from Super Cruise to a fully realized personal autonomy platform represents more than a technological shift; it marks a strategic transformation in how the company approaches safety, profitability, and consumer trust. The automaker is rebuilding its autonomy strategy through a sharp focus on profitability, disciplined execution, and a renewed commitment to integrating autonomy into vehicles that consumers can own and enjoy.Episode Chapters0:00 The Road to Autonomy Introduction0:23 GM's Renewed Autonomy Strategy 7:00 Super Cruise 11:35 Hands-Off, Eyes-Off16:04 Policy19:14 China23:10 Hyundai IONIQ 5 Platform 25:30 Contract Manufacturing and Licensing 32:03 GM's New Computing Platform 40:46 GM in 2030Recorded on Friday, October 24, 2025--------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™.

In this episode, Robert Llewellyn sits down with Feann Torr from  @carsales  to unpack the electric vehicle revolution transforming Australia. From BYD and MG to Tesla and Hyundai, they discuss how Chinese automakers are shaking up the industry and driving EVs to become the most affordable option on the market. Feann shares his insights into the rapid rise of EV interest — growing from 30% to 37% of Australian car buyers — and explains how China has become the country's third-largest source of car imports. They also discuss how Chinese EVs are winning the price war, the psychological shift that's making electric cars feel like “just another car” to new buyers, and why the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N is converting even the most loyal V8 fans. Finally, Feann and Robert couldn't help but get just a little excited about the groundbreaking potential of Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology and what it could mean for an energy-independent Australia.  https://www.carsales.com.au/ 00:00:07 - Global EV Adoption: Norway, China, and the General State of Growth 00:01:47 - Introducing Feann Torr & Carsales Australia's Editorial Focus 00:02:38 - EV Price Parity: The Electric Car is Becoming the Cheapest Option 00:04:30 - Feann's Background, from Video Games to the Automotive Crossroads 00:06:08 - The Chinese EV Invasion in Australia (BYD, GWM) 00:08:45 - The Psychology of EV Adoption: EVs as "Just Cars" 00:09:52 - Country of Origin: Dealing with Geopolitical Pushback 00:12:06 - The Shifting Mindset: Diminishing EV Resistance (Australia's 8% Market) 00:14:14 - The Narrowing Cost Gap & The Arrival of Sub-$30,000 EVs 00:16:17 - Chinese Cars Overtake Korean Brands in Australian Imports 00:18:20 - Shock at the Shanghai Motor Show & Chinese Tech Dominance 00:20:51 - Mainstream Japanese Brands (Mazda/Toyota) Partnering for EV Platforms 00:23:49 - The Rapid Growth of Australia's Charging Network (EVIE, Charge Fox) 00:27:07 - On-Street Charging Rules and Innovative Lamppost Chargers in Sydney 00:30:16 - Tesla's Dominance Challenged by New, Affordable Chinese Rivals 00:33:38 - The Value of the Everything Electric Test Drive Experience (130k Drives) 00:37:07 - Carsales Survey Data: Rising EV Consideration (30% to 37%) 00:39:06 - The Secondhand EV Market & Steep Depreciation (Good for Buyers) 00:43:57 - Busting the Battery Replacement Myth (CATL's 90-Year Battery) 00:50:31 - The Enthusiast Market: V8s vs. High-Performance EVs (Hyundai Ioniq 5 N) 00:56:45 - The Argument for Energy Independence & Australia's Solar Capacity 01:03:00 - The Future: Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) and Powering Your Home from Your Car 01:05:01 - Beyond Cars: Electric Skateboards, Ferries, and Flying Vehicles 01:08:29 - Final Thoughts and Conclusion 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 MELBOURNE - Melbourne Showgrounds 14th, 15th & 16th November 2025 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 #australia #byd #tesla #hyundai

India's Battle Against Air PollutionHistorically, India has faced challenges with persistent air pollution as a result of industrial development. One key approach to combat this has been to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. For example, Indian policymakers have been pushing for the commercialization of electric vehicles which has unlocked various incentives for companies like Vision Mechatronics to develop electric vehicles run by lithium-ion batteries. How Lithium-Ion Batteries Power EVsIndia “seeks to attain a 30% share of electric vehicles, in the total vehicles sold, by 2030” and accelerating the market for it by “moving from incentives to mandates” like a Zero Emission Vehicle policy (NITI Aayog). Taking advantage of this political support, Vision Mechatronics “aims to develop a complete domestic ecosystem around EVs” which have “zero tailpipe emissions” (Vision Mechatronics). Many electric vehicles are driven by lithium ion batteries which “can contain hundreds of individual cylindrical battery cells that are the same shape as common AA and AAA batteries” (Edmunds). They are extremely energy efficient and can store a multitude of energy; on full battery, electric cars powered by lithium-ion batteries can drive over 200 miles–although it may depend on the specific car model. Compared to their precursor, lead-acid batteries, lithium-ion batteries have higher energy density which increases the mileage of a car. They are also extremely lightweight and this ensures that EVs aren't too heavy. Moreover, the electricity used to refuel the EVs come from renewable energy sources like solar power. The Environmental Cost of Battery ProductionThere are various concerns that lithium-ion battery powered cars take a long time to charge. Although this may be true for some models, recent developments have led to an increase in charging efficiency and overall energy storage. For instance, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 can be charged “from 10% to 80% in just 18 minutes” (Edmunds).Moreover, the environmental impact that the creation of lithium-ion batteries has is detrimental as “the mining process for lithium and other materials used in these batteries can… lead to water pollution and habitat destruction” (Tara Electronics). Although this is the undeniable truth, it is promising to know that due to advancements in technology it has been shown that electric car batteries can “last 12 to 15 years in moderate climates”, meaning that they don't have short lifespans (Edmunds). Moreover, “instead of ending up in a scrapyard like most internal combustion engines do, electric vehicle batteries can be repurposed, refurbished, or recycled when they fail” (Edmunds).Building India's EV EcosystemGupta believes that local battery production in India can help India progress towards an economy that is powered by clean energy. She mentions that it has been difficult to employ skilled labor in this field due to geopolitical tensions and a lack of awareness regarding the importance of this field. However, she is trying to bridge this gap by making opportunities in her company as accessible to the next generation as possible. About Our GuestRashi Gupta, an advocate for clean energy, is the Founder & Managing Director of Vision Mechatronics Private Limited which is a battery company in India.ResourcesEdmunds, What You Need to Know About Electric Vehicle BatteriesVision Mechatronics, Renewable Energy Solutions for Electric VehiclesNITI Aayog, “Unlocking a $200 Billion Opportunity: Electric Vehicles in India”Tara Electronics, Why Do Electric Cars Use Lithium Batteries Exploring the Advantages and ChallengesFurther ReadingEV Mechanica, Understanding Lithium-Ion Battery Technology in Electric VehiclesIBEF, Electric Vehicles: Electric Vehicle Industry in India and its GrowthFor a transcript of this episode, please visit https://climatebreak.org/lithium-ion-batteries-for-indias-clean-energy-future/.

News and Updates: Waymo begins robotaxi testing in New York City, deploying up to eight vehicles in Manhattan and Brooklyn with safety drivers until Sept. 2025. While Alphabet hails it as a milestone, critics like former mayor Bill de Blasio and union leaders slam the move as unsafe and job-killing. DOT insists safety rules will keep pedestrians protected. Waymo is eyeing Dallas, DC, and Miami for 2026 after logging 10M+ rides nationwide. IRS offers EV buyers last-minute relief ahead of the Sept. 30 sunset of the $7,500 federal tax credit under Trump's Big Beautiful Bill. Buyers only need a signed contract and payment in place by the deadline—delivery can come later. Newly eligible models for 2025 include Tesla Cybertruck, Kia EV6/EV9, Hyundai Ioniq 5/9, and Cadillac Vistiq. Losers include Rivian, Nissan Leaf, VW ID.4, and Chevy Bolt. Melania Trump is rebranded the “First Lady of Technology” by the NY Post, launching the Presidential AI Challenge for K-12 students. Inspired by her own use of a deepfake to narrate her audiobook, she says AI can “ignite innovation” in schools. The contest offers up to $10,000 prizes and national recognition in June 2026. Critics point to risks of kids bonding with AI chatbots—72% of teens already use them, some with disturbing outcomes. Data centers face growing backlash over water use. A Lawrence Berkeley Lab report warns U.S. facilities consumed 17B gallons of cooling water in 2023, projected to double or quadruple by 2028. Google and Meta disclosed that ~95% of their water use comes from data centers. Communities in the Great Lakes, Texas, and abroad are raising alarms as companies eye water-stressed regions to build AI server farms. Google shares first-ever environmental footprint of Gemini AI prompts. A single text query uses the energy of watching TV for 9 seconds, five drops of water, and emits 0.03g of CO₂—33x more efficient than last year thanks to software and renewable energy. However, the report excludes image/video generation and AI training. DOE projects U.S. data centers could eat up to 12% of electricity by 2028. Bloomberg warns AI is draining water in drought zones. Roughly two-thirds of new U.S. data centers since 2022 are in high water-stress areas, including Texas and Arizona. A 100MW facility consumes 2M liters daily—equal to 6,500 households. Microsoft and OpenAI are experimenting with closed-loop and immersion cooling, but most of the industry still relies on water-intensive evaporative cooling. Protests have erupted in Chile, the Netherlands, and Uruguay over water use.

Interesting, informative, and entertaining article by Chris Stokes, who has over half a decade of using EVs on the Irish roads now. We asked him all the usual questions, what worked, what didn't, would you did it all over again, his answers are considered and thoughtful. If you would like to share your experiences of using an EV them drop us a line, and we would be happy to feature further perspectives on Ireland's journey to a greener driving experience. EVs the pros and cons I bought my 1st ev in 2019, which maybe just about qualifies me for the status of 'early adopter'. Being a middle aged man that kind of kudos is important to me, more so than any other possible advantage that might accrue from owning a reasonably nice car. And reasonably nice covers it quite well. It was a 2nd hand e-golf, less than a year old and I brought it in from the UK. I was never a car guy and this was the most i had ever spent on one. There were a few reasons why I decided to go for an EV and at this time. Mostly my old diesel ford focus had started to throw random bills at me as it entered into its twilight years. I could see the writing on the wall, it was going to break down some where inconvenient at some point. I'm of the opinion that if you need a car then this is the only good reason to change it - financially, environmentally, the best option is no car followed by drive your car until it dies. Not knowing much about cars, being cautious when spending money and being the kind of person that researches to the point of internet rabbit holes, I did fair amount of reading. Eventually I was convinced, or had convinced myself, that electric was the way forward. Electric motors are relatively simple and efficient things, far less likely to break then their petrol or engine equivalents. Less things to break, less things to service. Electric cars are cheaper to run (if you can charge at home). They are quieter, more comfortable. They tend to come with far more technology and addons compared to their ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) equivalents. And they do have less of an impact on the environment, every serious study I have read backs this up. They are not 'good' for the environment. They are 'less bad'. After about 12months of reading various forums and being told that my steering links would soon fail on my ford focus, I found a car. At this time (2019) there wasn't a lot of choice at my price point. The second hand market basically came down to a Nissan Leaf, a Hyundai Ioniq or a VW e-golf. The Leaf had Chademo charging architecture, a dying standard that would (is) becomingly harder to find so making public charging even more difficult (similar to buying a beta max video player back in the day). The Ioniq didn't look like it would take my bike rack very well (an all glass lid on the boot). So by default it was e-golf or nothing. I was fortunate in that VRT on cars purchased in the UK was not a thing - this changed in 2021 with the implementation of Brexit. So I got a good deal in the UK, and drove home, my first all electric trip being from Milton Keynes to Holyhead, around 400km on a 200km range car. And it was great. I had lots of time, I had extensively researched charging in the UK and had a number of possible stops lined up to allow for any unforeseens. I glided home, enjoying all the things that weren't in a 15 year old diesel (navigation, spotify, cruise control, lane assist, instant heat….) And when I got to the ferry they waved me to the front of the queue so I could drive in and charge my car on board (for free!). It was like I had joined some kind of exclusive club where i was just a little bit better than everyone else. Smug. I kept the e-golf for 18months and it might still be the best car I ever had. Solid like a VW golf is (was?) renowned for, everything worked. But the range. 200km. We're a one car family. We have relatives either end of the country. With a small child. It was manageable but more range is nice… I traded in ...

This week's episode of America on the Road brings two all-new models to the forefront, both playing in dramatically different corners of the automotive spectrum — the 2025 Mazda CX-5 and the 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9. Mildly refreshed for 2025, the CX-5 is a compact SUV that continues to punch above its weight with upscale styling, responsive driving dynamics, and an even more premium interior this year. Mazda hasn't radically altered the CX-5's formula, but the updates include a sleeker front fascia, more tech inside, and a Carbon Edition trim that hits the sweet spot between luxury and value. During his weeklong road test of the SUV, Host Jack Nerad spent a weekend putting the fun-to-drive CX-5 through its paces over the twisty roads of eastern San Diego County, where it proved once again why it's a perennial favorite among compact SUV shoppers and car journalists alike. On the other end of the spectrum is the 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9, an all-electric three-row SUV that aims directly at the heart of the American family vehicle market. Built on Hyundai's E-GMP platform, the Ioniq 9 is large, loaded, and luxurious, with a spacious interior and cutting-edge technology. Guest co-host Matt DeLorenzo breaks down how this EV stacks up on the road, particularly in terms of range, ride comfort, and usability for larger families. Is this the long-awaited Tesla Model X alternative? Tune in to find out. This week's special guest is Frank Hanley, Senior Director at J.D. Power. He joins the show to talk about the latest findings from the J.D. Power Initial Quality Study, with a particular focus on how quality benchmarks are shifting in 2025. Hanley shares insights on which automakers are hitting the mark and which are falling behind as new tech becomes standard and customer expectations continue to rise. Driving News Ford's $5 Billion EV Gamble: Did the Revolution Fall Short? Promising a “Model T Moment,” Ford doubled down this week on battery-electric vehicles, announcing a$5 billion investment aimed at revitalizing its EV efforts after cooling enthusiasm and slower-than-expected sales. The new plan involves nearly 4,000 jobs and renewed focus on its Louisville Assembly Plant and BlueOval Battery Park in Michigan. GM Reboots Autonomous Ambitions After Cruise Meltdown
 In a surprising move, General Motors is reviving its self-driving initiative following the well-publicized issues with its Cruise autonomous vehicle operation closed down. The pivot includes a shift in leadership and a new business model that could either reset the playing field or repeat past mistakes. Mercury Insurance Names Most Affordable Cars to Insure for 2025
 Mercury Insurance has released its annual list of the most cost-effective vehicles to insure, revealing some surprises for value-conscious drivers. Chevrolet is among the brands that continue to rank highly thanks to its straightforward designs and strong parts availability. Dodge Muscles Up Durango for 2026 For 2026, Dodge is going full muscle by making a V8 standard across the entire Durango lineup, from the base GT to the 710-horsepower Hellcat. The new 5.7-liter HEMI in the GT delivers a big jump in power and towing, while the R/T now features the 475-horsepower 392 HEMI under $50K. At the top, the Hellcat returns with a Jailbreak customization package and retains its crown as the most powerful gas SUV ever built. Listener Question of the Week This week's listener question comes from Jinnie in Park City, Utah, who asks: ““I think my car needs some attention and I'm not sure what to do about it. Should I go to the dealership for service or find a local mechanic?” Jack and Matt share some practical advice, including the best times to go to a dealer and the best ways to find a good independent mechanic you can trust.

In this week's episode of America on the Road, we dive deep into two standout vehicles that couldn't be more different but are each compelling in their own right — the 2025 Dodge Durango Hellcat and the 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 6. As the vehicle for the AOTR “Made in America” tour, the 2025 Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat showed its all-around abilities over the course of a test that took it 2,000 miles. Host Jack Nerad piloted the three-row family SUV that refuses to compromise on power but also shows a remarkable ability as a cross-country companion. With a jaw-dropping 710 horsepower from its supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI V8 engine, the Hellcat goes from 0 to 60 in just 3.5 seconds and hits a top speed of 180 mph. But the Hellcat also has a kittenish side. Packed with engineering precision, from adaptive suspension and all-wheel drive to seven selectable drive modes, the SRT is a very malleable daily driver. Inside, it offers the user-friendly Uconnect 5 infotainment system, digital performance gauges, and custom SRT graphics. It's a muscle car wrapped in family-friendly practicality, and as the most powerful gas-powered SUV on the road, it made short work of its 2,000-mile cruise. On the other end of the spectrum, Co-host Chris Teague tests the 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 6, an all-electric sedan that blends aerodynamic design with leading-edge efficiency. With its sleek silhouette and ultra-low drag coefficient, the Ioniq 6 isn't just about looks; it's built for range and refinement. This EV offers both single- and dual-motor options, fast-charging capability, and a tech-forward cabin that rivals luxury brands. Hyundai continues to carve out a serious space in the EV segment, and Jack and Chris will discuss the car and where EVs are heading. Also on the show, host Jack Nerad shares highlights from the America on the Road “Made in America” tour, a two—week journey through the heart of the Midwest that showcased American automotive history, innovation, and community spirit. From Milwaukee to St. Ignace, Traverse City to Detroit, and on through Cleveland and Pittsburgh and finally to Chicago, Jack visited factories, classic car sites, and met with countless workers who embody the soul of American mobility. It's a road trip full of character, grit, and horsepower just like the cars we love. This week's news segment is stacked with stories that signal real shifts in the auto industry: • Ford's “Model T Moment”: CEO Jim Farley promises a game-changing reveal next week with a brand-new, U.S.-built EV platform. The upcoming vehicle, born from a secretive skunkworks project, aims to bring affordable electric vehicles to the masses, marking Ford's pivot away from delayed or canceled high-end EV plans. • Japan Pushes Back on Tariffs: Japan is urging the U.S. to enforce its side of a July trade agreement that caps auto tariffs at 15%. With Japanese automakers still facing up to 27.5% in duties, the country warns that trade imbalances could weaken long-standing economic ties. • Hyundai Celebrates U.S.-Korea Deal: In contrast, Hyundai is applauding a new U.S.-South Korea trade agreement that locks in a 15% tariff and supports massive investments in American manufacturing. The automaker emphasized its $21 billion U.S. investment plan and says the deal strengthens its long-term growth. • Interest Rates Stay High, Leasing Gets Popular: With the Fed holding steady on interest rates, more car buyers are turning to leasing as a workaround. Analysts say leasing's popularity could keep climbing unless rates ease, especially for consumers looking to keep monthly payments manageable. But is leasing a good idea for you? Chris and Jack will share their thoughts. • Stellantis Names New Design Boss: Scott Krugger has been tapped to lead Stellantis' North American design team, with oversight of brands like Jeep, Dodge, and Ram. The move is part of a broader shift toward more regionally tailored vehicle designs under Chief Design Officer Ralph Gilles...

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss their driver-out ride with Avride, Nuro's impressive deal with Lucid and Uber, and Waymo's Austin depot operated by AVOMO. While in Austin last week, Grayson and Walt met with AVride, experienced a fully autonomous ride in their Hyundai IONIQ 5, and spent time with the company's management team. AVride's engineering and OEM partnership strategy stood out as key strengths and later this year, the company will launch commercial service on the Uber network in Dallas.Scaling robotaxi services requires real-world logistics, and companies such as AVOMO are leaning into the opportunity by building businesses to manage fleets of robotaxis. In Austin, AVOMO is managing a Costco-sized depot with 36 charging ports and on-site maintenance for Uber's Austin Waymo fleet.Another day, another autonomy deal for Uber. This week, Nuro announced a six-year deal with Lucid Motors and Uber to bring fully integrated autonomous Lucid Gravity vehicles powered by the Nuro driver to the Uber platform starting next year. As part of the deal, Uber is going to own the asset as they are entering the asset-ownership game, as we correctly called on Autonomy Markets.Episode Chapters0:00 Avomo, Waymo, Uber Austin Depot7:51 Depot Real Estate10:16 Vehicle Ownership13:13 Waymo / Uber Relationship 15:13 Avride23:30 Nuro, Lucid, Uber Deal 32:42 Uber's Autonomous Vehicle Asset + Logistics Strategy36:32 Tesla Robotaxi's Expanded Austin Service Area40:41 Next WeekRecorded on Thursday, July 17, 2025--------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™.

With the recent passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, also known as the Big Beautiful Bill, significant changes are coming to both solar panel and electric vehicle tax credits.  I break down what these changes mean, how they can affect your savings, and what steps you might want to take before these credits disappear. From figuring out if solar panels make sense for your home to understanding how electric vehicle credits work (and when they're expiring), this episode is packed with actionable insights and tips, especially for those planning for retirement or looking to cut down on monthly expenses. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [01:31] Residential solar panels are popular for reducing electric bills, offering significant savings, especially for retirees. [05:23] Solar tax credits are expiring soon. [09:07] Solar investments offset electric costs and protect against future rate hikes, beneficial long term. [11:28] Costs and break-even of electric cars. [13:08] Act now if you want to take advantage of solar tax credits. The Solar Panel Tax Credit is a Fading Opportunity One of the biggest draws for homeowners considering solar panels has been the significant federal tax credit, currently set at 30% of the total installation cost. This credit has made solar an appealing investment for many, offering a direct dollar-for-dollar reduction in the taxes owed. In high-cost electricity states like Connecticut, this can mean hundreds of dollars in monthly savings on your utility bill. However, the Big Beautiful Bill brings an unfortunate change: the solar tax credit is set to disappear at the end of this year. That means if you've been thinking about going solar, now is the time to act. If you don't install solar panels before the deadline could add years to your payback period, undermining the investment's attractiveness and putting it out of reach for many. Energy Savings of Battery Storage and EVs While solar panels are great for energy savings, adding a battery storage system further enhances their benefits. A battery can store excess solar power for use during peak times or outages, which is particularly helpful for retirees planning to stay in their homes for decades and looking to insulate themselves from rising electricity rates. Electric vehicles (EVs) also offer savings for households with high transportation costs. The federal EV tax credit, worth up to $7,500 on new cars and up to $4,000 for used EVs, has also been a strong motivator for those considering a switch from gas-powered vehicles. The Big Beautiful Bill also changes the EV tax credit, which will disappear even sooner than the solar incentive. Although there are several important limitations: only vehicles assembled in North America qualify, and there's a cap on purchase price ($55,000 for sedans, $80,000 for SUVs). Income limitations apply as well; single filers must earn less than $150,000 ($300,000 for married couples) to claim the new vehicle credit. The used EV credit comes with lower income caps ($75,000 for singles, $150,000 for couples) and is worth up to $4,000.  Should You Act Now?  Before making any big investment, think about the following: Timing: Both solar and EV credits will soon vanish. If you want the tax break, don't wait. Financial Health: The best return comes from paying cash, not financing or tapping retirement accounts. Long-term Plans: Solar and EV investments make the most sense if you plan to stay in your home and keep your vehicle for years to come. Manufacturers may eventually lower prices as credits disappear, but there are no guarantees. With energy incentives set to change dramatically, the window to maximize savings is closing fast. For homeowners and future retirees, the time to act is now, whether that means installing solar, purchasing an EV, or both. Consult with a financial advisor to consider how these decisions fit into your overall retirement and financial readiness strategy. The Treasury Department's official list of eligible vehicles shows that the cars, trucks, minivans, and SUVs listed below qualify for a full $7,500 tax credit if placed in service between January 1 and September 30 of 2025.   In some cases, only certain trim levels or model years qualify. More vehicles may be added to or removed from this list as manufacturers continue to submit information on whether their vehicles are eligible.
