Kielan Whitner made more in his first 90 days selling cars than he made in an entire year working as a certified public accountant at a Big Four firm, and he says that gap is exactly why automotive struggles to attract the talent it needs. A fourth-generation dealer, he built his foundation on the fixed side of the business, service advisor to service manager, before stepping into the general manager role, and now leans on a network of industry mentors and organizations like NAMAD to keep leveling up.

Europe rose 33% to 450,000 and other markets 97% to 280,000, while North America fell 27% to 140,000 as the US decline widened beyond 30%.ULTIUM CELLS TO RESTART OHIO OUTPUTUltium Cells restarts battery-cell production next week at its Warren, Ohio plant after a seven-month shutdown blamed on falling EV demand and the cancelled $7,500 federal tax credit. The GM–LG joint venture site makes large-format NCMA pouch cells with over 45GWh annual capacity for nearly all GM EVs, and expects headcount to reach 1,400 after cutting roughly 1,330 jobs at closure.VOLKSWAGEN OPENS ID.3 NEO UK ORDERSVolkswagen opened UK orders for the ID.3 Neo on 13 August 2026 from £33,080, or £31,580 after the Government's £1,500 Electric Car Grant, with 50, 58 and 79 kWh batteries giving up to 390 miles and DC charging from 100 kW to 183 kW. The revised hatchback gains new LED headlights, an illuminated badge, the return of physical buttons and rotary controls, a new Innovision system with an in-car app shop, and a 3.6 kW V2L adapter.TESLA PLANS 124-STALL SUPERCHARGER IN SOUTHERN SAN FRANCISCOTesla filed plans on 26 May 2026 for a 124-stall Supercharger at 75 Waterloo Street in southern San Francisco, one of the largest globally and unusual for sitting inside a city rather than beside a highway. The site draws entirely from the grid with no solar canopies or Megapack storage, and includes a 416-square-foot building with two restrooms, vending machines and water fountains open 24 hours.CHARGING FAILURES HIT SIX-YEAR LOWPublic charging failures fell to 12% in the second quarter from 14% a year earlier and 19% in 2023 and 2024, the lowest in the six-year history of JD Power's study, which credited faster chargers and larger destination-style sites. Ionna led DC fast-charger satisfaction on 807 out of 1,000, ahead of Mercedes-Benz on 797, Rivian on 755 and Tesla on 701, against a segment average of 666.CHINESE CAR MAKERS BUILD IN AFRICAChinese car makers are opening African factories to absorb domestic overcapacity and sidestep European and North American trade barriers, with Chery buying Nissan's Rosslyn plant near Pretoria in July and BAIC and Great Wall already operating on the continent. South Africa, Morocco, Kenya, Ethiopia and Ghana are drawing investment through rebates, tax breaks and import bans on fossil-fuel cars, though weak grids, thin charging infrastructure and policy uncertainty still deter long-term commitment.GAC ADDS 44KWH AION UT WITH 320KM (199 MILES) WLTP RANGE IN LATE 2026GAC will add a 44kWh lithium iron phosphate entry version of the Aion UT with an estimated 320km (199 miles) WLTP range, priced under AUD$30,000 before on-road costs. It sits below the 60kWh Premium and Luxury at AUD$31,990 and AUD$35,990, answering cheaper rivals such as BYD's AUD$23,990 Atto 1 Essential and Geely's AUD$26,490 EX2 Complete.HONGQI TO ENTER AUSTRALIA IN 2027Hongqi will launch in Australia under the HQ name in January 2027 via Sydney distributor Greentech, starting with the E-HS9 large three-row electric SUV. Entry cars use a 99kWh NMC battery for 465km (289 miles) WLTP and higher trims a 120kWh pack for 515km (320 miles), with six- or seven-seat layouts and twin 16.2-inch displays, but no announced pricing.XCHARGE POWERS ELECTRIC AIRPORT FIRE ENGINEXCharge North America has deployed a 400-kW ultra-fast charger at Dallas Love Field Airport to serve Dallas Fire-Rescue's Rosenbauer Panther 6×6 Electric, billed as the world's first fully electric aircraft rescue and firefighting vehicle. The airport handles almost 18 million passengers a year, and XCharge argues electrification reduces the logistical and environmental risks of moving and storing liquid fuel around aircraft operations.One flag: the GAC headline says late 2026, but the copy says "late next year" — from an August 2026 dateline those are a year apart.

The entry-level electric SUV offers front-wheel drive with 201 horsepower, all-wheel drive with 261 horsepower, or a GT variant at 288 horsepower, with AWD costing an extra $3,200 on most trims.BRITAIN'S USED EV SALES RISE 67% TO 110,761 IN SECOND QUARTERBritain's used EV market surged 67% to 110,761 sales in the second quarter of 2026, capturing a record 5.5% share of the used car market and claiming one in every 18 second-hand purchases. Electric cars nearly doubled their market penetration from 3.3% a year earlier as traditional petrol and diesel vehicles continued to dominate with 86.7% of transactions.USED EV VALUES RISE 1.6% IN JULY, FOURTH STRAIGHT MONTHLY GAINThree-year-old battery electric vehicles in the UK gained 1.6% in value during July, marking their fourth consecutive month of growth since March and a cumulative 7% increase of roughly £1,500 per car. Fleet EVs like the Peugeot 208 Electric, Mercedes EQB, VW ID.4, and Tesla Model Y now sell within 14 days, positioning them as the fastest-selling used cars in the market.AUSTRALIAN EV SALES DOUBLE AS PETROL HITS $2.53 A LITREElectric vehicle sales in Australia more than doubled in the second quarter of 2026 as unleaded petrol reached a record $2.53 per litre, making up one in five new cars sold. Market share for fully electric vehicles climbed from 12.25% to over 21% in the first half of 2026, driven primarily by fuel prices rather than policy.EVGO OPENS 350KW FLAGSHIP CHARGING SITE IN DETROIT WITH MEIJER AND GMEVgo opened a 350kW flagship charging station in Detroit with 12 CCS and NACS stalls beneath a canopy, capable of delivering a full charge in as little as 15 minutes and accommodating vehicles towing trailers through pull-through access. The site represents EVgo's vision for charging infrastructure, with the company expecting more than 100 flagship locations online by the end of 2026 after building nearly 2,400 stalls nationwide with GM's backing.GERMAN INSURER REPORTS 12% OF PRIVATE CAR SWITCHES GO ELECTRICGerman insurer HUK Coburg reported that 12% of private vehicle changes switched to battery-electric cars in the second quarter of 2026, more than double the pre-war rate of 6.3%, with 24% of licence holders citing fuel prices since the Iran conflict as motivation. Germany registered 368,000 new BEVs in the first half of 2026 (48% more than 2025) for a 24.8% market share, while Tesla's share among switchers jumped from 5.6% to 12.2% and German brands lost ground except in the used market.SAMSUNG SDI BUYS GM'S 49.99% STAKE IN INDIANA BATTERY VENTURESamsung SDI has acquired General Motors' 49.99% stake in SynergyCells, the Indiana battery venture formed in 2024, citing slower-than-expected EV demand and pivoting the plant to produce cells and modules for energy storage systems rather than GM vehicles. The $3.5 billion venture will still open in 2026, though Samsung SDI and GM have signed a separate agreement to develop next-generation prismatic cells together for possible future EVs.TOKYO RAISES EV SUBSIDY TO 1.3 MILLION YEN PER VEHICLETokyo's metropolitan government raised its electric vehicle subsidy to 1.3 million yen per vehicle with no purchase limit, stackable with national incentives and bonuses for vehicle-to-load capability, charging equipment installation, renewable energy, and solar power usage. The scheme grades manufacturers by subsidy level—Toyota, Nissan, and Honda receive 400,000 yen while BYD receives only 100,000 yen in Tokyo—allowing buyers to potentially pay as little as 2.2 million yen for a 4.8 million yen Toyota bZ4X after stacking both subsidy tiers.FORMULA E SPLITS INTO TWO RACE FORMATS FROM 2026/27From the 2026/27 season, Formula E will run two distinct race formats: the E-Prix Unleashed as a 30-minute sprint with high downforce and no mandatory pit stop, and the conventional E-Prix as a 45-minute race with low-downforce aerodynamics and compulsory pit stops. The split reflects the capabilities of the new GEN4 car, which features permanent all-wheel drive, up to 600kW output, and 0-62 mph acceleration in roughly 1.8 seconds.V ENGINEERING BUILDS 12.4KWH REPLACEMENT BATTERY FOR MCLAREN P1V Engineering, a McLaren specialist based in Berkshire, has developed Project Continuum, a replacement high-voltage hybrid battery for the P1 that stores 12.4kWh compared to the original 4.72kWh while weighing 23kg less and requiring no rewiring. Customer installations will begin in spring 2027 for cars across the UK, Europe, the Middle East, and the United States, addressing the 2010-era battery's deterioration after approaching 16 years in service.

August 10, 2026: I look at Mark Zuckerberg's new Meta manifesto and why he's positioning open superintelligence as a direct challenge to OpenAI and Anthropic's more centralized approach. Then I get into Nissan using AI-powered cameras at its Canton, Mississippi factory to track how workers bend, twist, and move on the assembly line. Finally, I unpack WIRED's report on the rise of AI job interviews, where candidates record answers late at night and, in many cases, no human ever watches the interview.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we're joined live from Import Alliance by Joshua Travis, a lifelong Nissan enthusiast whose passion for the brand started early thanks to his father's nearly four-decade career with Nissan. After years of drifting everything from a 350Z to a Corvette, Joshua finally fulfilled a lifelong dream by importing a truly special Nissan Skyline R34 GTT sedan built by the legendary Okubo Factory. Joshua shares the entire journey—from searching Japanese auctions and navigating the import process to the excitement of winning the car at auction after it unexpectedly left consignment. We also discuss what makes an Okubo Factory build so unique, the rare June-built 2.6L stroker engine, period-correct Japanese modifications, and why he intentionally chose to preserve the car's identity as a GTT instead of trying to turn it into a GT-R clone. We also dive into the realities of importing a car from Japan, avoiding scams, choosing the right importer, and the modifications Joshua has planned as he carefully modernizes the car while staying true to its Japanese roots. It's an episode about patience, passion, and finally owning the Skyline you've dreamed about for years.

What separates automotive sales professionals who merely show up from those who consistently dominate their market? "Everyone is a customer until they're not." - Stacey Orlowski In this episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, Sean V. Bradley sits down with Stacey Orlowski, an accomplished automotive sales professional whose success is rooted in discipline, purpose, and an unwavering commitment to improvement. Stacey breaks down why identifying your "why" can completely transform your performance, especially during the difficult days when motivation alone is not enough. Drawing inspiration from elite performers like Tom Brady, he explains how hard work, a positive mindset, and consistent execution can help sales professionals reach levels they once believed were impossible. "A goal and a dream are two very different things. A goal has time and accountability. A dream, that's not real." - Stacey Orlowski Sean and Stacey also dive into the real-world strategies that drive automotive sales, from converting showroom walk-ins to maximizing Internet leads. They explore how communication, customer rapport, and a genuinely customer-focused approach can separate top performers from everyone else. You'll also hear how Stacey's transition from law enforcement into automotive sales gave him a unique set of skills that translated powerfully to the showroom floor. His journey proves that your previous experiences can become a competitive advantage when paired with the right mindset and process. "No is a good thing because it's a way for you to get to yes." - Stacey Orlowski Whether you are entering automotive sales for the first time or searching for the breakthrough that will take your performance to the next level, this episode provides a practical roadmap for strengthening your mindset, improving your customer interactions, and maximizing every opportunity. Success begins with knowing why you started, but reaching the top requires knowing exactly what to do next. Listen now to discover the habits and strategies that can help you achieve automotive sales excellence. Key Takeaways: ✅ The significance of identifying a personal 'why' can drive motivation and focus in sales, transforming what seems like a daunting process into an achievable goal. ✅ Transitioning skills from previous jobs, even those unrelated to sales, can provide unique advantages in understanding and engaging with customers. ✅ Understanding the psychological elements of sales, such as active listening and body language, can lead to more effective and successful customer interactions. ✅ It's crucial to treat sales as a relationship-oriented field rather than merely focusing on transactions to foster retention and referrals. ✅ Utilizing a balanced approach to different types of leads can help maximize sales opportunities and overall success. About Stacey Orlowski Stacey Orlowski is an accomplished automotive sales professional recognized as the number one Nissan salesperson in Louisiana. With a background in law enforcement and government contracting, Stacey has transitioned into the automotive industry, achieving extraordinary success, including selling over 50 cars in a month. His focus on mindset, ethical sales practices, and customer relationships underpins his achievements. Stacey's unique approach and relentless drive earned him a place among the top 25 best automotive salespeople in the nation, and he is currently a key member of the team at Royal Nissan.   Transforming Car Sales: Lessons in Mindset and Mastery from an Automotive Champion Key Takeaways: Embrace the Right Mindset: Transform success through a mindset that balances personal drive with ethical customer engagement. Maximize Every Opportunity: View every interaction as a potential sale and leverage diverse selling strategies effectively. Learn and Adapt Continuously: Cultivate skills from varied experiences and remain open to adopting new strategies to refine your selling process.   Unleashing Potential with the Right Mindset The hustle and bustle of car sales is not just about hitting numbers; it's about grasping the essence of what it means to sell cars effectively. Within a lively podcast discussion featuring Sean V. Bradley and star salesman Stacey Orlowski, a detailed portrait of the car sales industry emerges, focusing on mindset as the ultimate game-changer. Orlowski, based in Louisiana and a leader in Nissan sales, attributes much of his success to a powerful mindset. "Mindset before skillset," emphasizes Stacey Orlowski, echoing a key philosophy. The foundation of success in sales, as illustrated in the dialogue, requires more than mere knowledge or technical prowess. It's a holistic approach steeped in the recognition of one's own capabilities and relentless drive to serve customers responsibly. Orlowski's journey is a testament to embracing positivity and determination, drawing parallels with iconic figures like Tom Brady: "Tom Brady wasn't the fastest, but he worked the hardest," remarks Orlowski. This embodies the idea that relentless effort, aligned with ethical practices, results not merely in sales but in lasting client relationships—a crucial aspect both speakers highlight through real-world insights. Beyond aspirational thoughts, this perspective profoundly impacts how sales are conducted, from understanding customer needs to showcasing empathy. It's a human-centered approach that transcends transactional interactions, paving the way for sustainable success.   Optimizing Sales Techniques for Maximal Impact One enlightening insight shared by Orlowski centers around the strategic engagement of sales opportunities. Every customer, refers to Orlowski, is a chance for conversion: "Everyone is a customer until they're not." This conviction lays the groundwork for actionable strategies that turn potential interests into concrete sales. Through consistent processes, he demonstrates the balancing act between pursuing floor 'ups' and nurturing online leads. This approach acknowledges that while internet leads offer one pathway, each interaction possesses the potential for success when cultivated properly: "Catch the effort and apply it toward every single opportunity you get," emphasizes Orlowski. This technique harnesses a broad spectrum of sales methods, integrating walk-ins and internet inquiries seamlessly. Orlowski attributes part of his success to thorough needs assessments, understanding customer pain points, and leveraging insights to match them with appropriate vehicles. This thoughtful evaluation system ensures a match between client needs and sales pitches, significantly enhancing the likelihood of successful outcomes. For Orlowski, the art of engagement involves an intricate dance of empathy and inquiry—listening deeply and tailoring responses to foster trust and, eventually, loyalty.   Continuous Learning and Adaptability: The Cornerstones of Sales Mastery In dissecting Stacey Orlowski's unmatched success, one theme stands paramount: the pivotal role of continuous learning and adaptation. Throughout the exchange, Orlowski's conversation reflects a persistent thirst for knowledge, grounded in a diverse professional backdrop, from corrections to government contracting, translating into a unique understanding of human psychology in sales. "My life experiences…have been essential in my success right now," notes Orlowski, signaling the value in embracing diverse learning opportunities. The dialogue references books like "Never Split the Difference" by Chris Voss as tools to refine negotiation tactics, illustrating how ceaselessly seeking wisdom outside one's comfort zone fosters transformation. Adjusting one's sales pitch to align with customer psychology showcases a nuanced balance between steadfastness and flexibility. For Orlowski, this adaptability encompasses not taking rejection personally—viewing "no" as a gateway rather than a barrier, reinforcing a mindset resilient to setbacks but open to modification and growth. With broader industry implications, this theme captures a universal truth: cultivating adaptability and a hunger for learning equips sales professionals to thrive, not just survive, in an ever-evolving marketplace.   By encapsulating these interconnected ideas of mindset, strategic engagement, and adaptive learning, the vibrant exchange between Sean V. Bradley and Stacey Orlowski offers profound insights into mastering the art of car sales. In the relentless drive to improve and innovate, these principles lay the foundation for reshaping how professionals approach not only their craft but the evolving needs of their clients.       Resources + Our Proud Sponsors:   ➼ Podium: The AI Platform Powering the Modern Dealership.

Join host Sam Davidson as he sits down with Don and Tracy Hardin, founders of the Don Hardin Group and two of the newest announced members of the Nashville Entrepreneurs' Hall of Fame 15th class, to be honored at the NEXT Awards on October 19th, 2026. Neither of them set out to build a company. Don wanted to work 30 years, get a watch, and retire. Tracy watched her father do payroll by hand at 11 PM and wanted absolutely nothing to do with entrepreneurship. Then life had other plans. Over 26 years, through a decade of moves across the country, two recessions, a pandemic, and a deeply held belief that their employees would always get paid — they built one of Nashville's most respected construction management firms. Their portfolio includes the National Museum of African American Music, Music City Center, and a reputation built on relationships, consistency, and refusing to have a backup plan. This conversation covers all of it: how they met (at a Houston's hostess stand on May 13, 1989), how the company started (a church project, a Nissan plant, and a whiteboard at HCA), how Tracy went from swearing off entrepreneurship to running the entire back office, and what they're focused on now — building something worth handing down. Episode Highlights: 0:39 — Don and Tracy introduce themselves: 26 and 23 years respectively in this work 1:18 — Tracy's first entrepreneur: her father, UT's first Black tenured professor in 1966 — who also ran a convenience store to pay for her education 2:02 — Why Tracy grew up watching entrepreneurship and decided she wanted a nine-to-five 2:37 — Don's first: Mr. Jimmy and Ms. Kitty, the neighborhood market over the hill in Trinity Hills 4:59 — The math teacher Don dodged for an entire semester — by taking alternate stairs — who ultimately pointed him toward engineering 6:02 — Tracy: pre-med until the morgue, then public administration and nonprofit work 7:02 — How they met: a "shaggy apartment," a UPS lunch at Houston's, and a phone number he wasn't sure he'd get 9:07 — May 13, 1989: Don calls the same day, they go out the same night 9:41 — The decade of moves: Oswego to Bowling Green to Greenville to Chicago to Birmingham to Reading, PA — and finally back to Nashville 11:35 — The church project that pulled them home — and the promises Don made to get Tracy back 14:41 — Don's decision to go independent: unplanned, organic, just the next logical step 20:00 — First contract: Nissan North America in Canton, Mississippi, via a PMI lunch and an automotive credential from the Mercedes-Benz plant 22:29 — How Tracy joined: Don doing everything himself, Tracy saying "why don't I help?" and immediately professionalizing the whole operation 24:08 — Tracy's first decision: payroll service, day one. "I am not going to be my father with that notebook." 28:12 — Planning in a volatile industry: what happens when you come back from the mountains with a plan and the phone rings for something else entirely 31:13 — The legacy question: why selling shares to the next generation matters, and why passing a Black-owned business down is rare 33:24 — Running a business with your spouse: clear lane separation, and the same accountant, attorney, and insurance agent for 25+ years 35:00 — The National Museum of African American Music: "Don, go build a museum" — and how he spread opportunity to every contractor involved 35:50 — Music City Center: the "Leave it to Beaver" conversation that got the two larger firms to hear him out 37:57 — Tracy on Music City Center: managing the build, and now serving on the board 38:53 — Don's philosophy: no backup plan. One plan. Make it work. 39:33 — COVID: kept everyone on payroll the whole time. "Last year's profit's gone, but you're going to keep getting your paychecks." 40:51 — Closing: Hall of Fame, October 19th NEXT Awards, and what staying the course actually looks like Subscribe to Circle Back for more stories from Nashville's most interesting builders.

In 1996, a pipe bomb packed with masonry nails exploded in Atlanta's Centennial Olympic Park, killing two people and injuring more than a hundred. The FBI's first suspect was Richard Jewell, the security guard who'd found the bag and helped clear the area. By the time he was cleared 88 days later, investigators had no idea who they were looking for. Columnist John Archibald had covered the Olympics that summer, never imagining the bomber would come to his own city.On January 29, 1998, a bomb hidden in a FedEx box exploded outside a Birmingham abortion clinic, killing an off-duty police officer and gravely wounding nurse Emily Lyons. This time someone saw the bomber walk away — a UAB student named Jermaine Hughes, who followed him to a gray Nissan pickup with North Carolina plates. The name that came back was Eric Robert Rudolph. Within hours he vanished into the Nantahala National Forest, where he'd stay for five years while locals put up signs reading "Run, Rudolph, Run."Subscribe to our newsletter: ⁠https://jedlipinski.substack.com/⁠ Connect with Jed Lipinski:⁠https://www.instagram.com/gonesouthpodcast/⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/gonesouthpodcast/⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/jed-lipinski/

התוכן אודות חמשה עשר באב איתא במשנה "לא היו ימים טובים לישראל כחמשה עשר באב וכו'". ונקודת הביאור בזה: ט"ו באב הוא יום שבו "קיימא סיהרא באשלומתא", שזה מורה על שלימות בנ"י הדומין ומונין ללבנה. והעילוי בט"ו באב על ט"ו בניסן ותשרי: חודש ניסן קשור עם עבודת הצדיקים וחודש תשרי קשור עם עבודת התשובה, ולכן ט"ו תשרי יש בו עילוי על ט"ו ניסן, כי ענין התשובה באה לאחרי הירידה וכו'. ומזה מובן שט"ו באב שבא לאחרי ירידה הכי גדולה, חורבן ביהמ"ק וקודש הקדשים, הנה העלי' שלאח"ז היא גדולה ביותר. בקשר לט"ו באב איתא בגמ' ש"מכאן ואילך דמוסיף יוסיף" ופרש"י "מט"ו באב דמוסיף לילות על ימים לעסוק בתורה יוסיף חיים על חייו", ובמילא יש לקבל החלטות טובות להוסיף בלימוד התורה (בלילות) ועריכת התוועדויות בקשר לט"ו באב ובשבת שלאח"ז.ב' חלקים משיחת אור ליום ד' דפ' עקב, ט"ו באב ה'תשמ"ט ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=29-07-2026 Synopsis The Mishnah states: “There were no festivals for the Jewish people like the Fifteenth of Av...” The reason is because the Fifteenth of Av is the day on which “The moon is in its full state,” an expression of the completeness of the Jewish people, who are likened to the moon and whose calendar is based on the moon etc. The advantage of the 15th of Av over the 15th of Nissan and Tishrei is as follows: Nissan is associated with the service of tzaddikim, while Tishrei is associated with the service of teshuvah. Therefore, the 15th of Tishrei possesses an advantage over the 15th of Nissan, because teshuvah possesses the advantage of an ascent that follows a descent. Similarly, it is understood that the 15th of Av, which follows the greatest descent of all – the destruction of the Beis Hamikdash and the Holy of Holies – is the greatest ascent. In connection with the 15th of Av, the Gemara states: “From this point onward, one who adds will add,” meaning that from the 15th of Av onward, one who increases his nighttime Torah study adds life to his life (Rashi). Accordingly, one should resolve to increase in Torah study (at night) and to arrange farbrengens in connection with the 15th of Av and the Shabbos that follows it.2 excerpts from sichah of Tuesday night, parashas Ekev, 15 Av 5749 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=29-07-2026 לזכות ר' זאב הכהן וזוגתו מרת פריידא הינדא שיחיו טייטלבוים ליובל החתונה שלהם ביום חמשה עשר באבלברכה והצלחה בכל הענינים ‏בגו"ר*לעילוי נשמת הרבנית גיטל לאה בת הרב ישראל ע"ה סלונים ליום היארצייט שלה חמשה עשר באבת.נ.צ.ב.ה.

In 2025 alone, battery EVs already displaced 57 million barrels of oil and kept about €4 billion in European wealth inside the bloc, with the report urging faster electrification alongside a stronger industrial base and energy resilience.FORD AND GEELY PLAN VALENCIA JOINT VENTUREFord and Geely Auto are forming a Europe-focused joint venture at Ford's Valencia plant in Spain, with Ford owning 66% and Geely 34%, aiming to start operations in early 2027 and begin production in 2028. The venture will build a new compact Bronco, a jointly developed multi-energy crossover, and two Geely-branded electric SUVs, while Kuga production continues uninterrupted during the transition.SENATE BILL COULD BAR MERCEDES FROM USThe Senate Commerce Committee advanced bipartisan legislation barring automakers with more than 15% Chinese ownership from selling cars in the US, a threshold Mercedes-Benz would exceed due to nearly 20% Chinese investor ownership. Committee chair Ted Cruz said the bill would effectively ban Mercedes, though the company would have until 2030 to comply or seek a waiver, with the measure still needing full Senate and House approval plus a presidential signature.RIVIAN CUTS BATTERY COST WITH STRUCTURAL PACKRivian slashed R2 battery-pack cost by switching to large-format 4695 cells, cutting cell count from 7,776 to 776, and making the pack structural to the vehicle floor, saving about 7mm of space used for extra protection and venting. The company made the pack non-serviceable at the cell level to simplify validation, instead consolidating serviceable electronics into a rear-seat "powerhouse" that cut high-voltage cabling by roughly 70% versus R1.TESLA SHEDS $214.5 BILLION AFTER EARNINGSTesla shares fell 14.5% to $319.69 after disappointing Q2 earnings, wiping $214.5 billion off its market value in the largest one-day loss in company history. The drop followed missed expectations, a more cautious timeline for Cybercab, Semi and Megapack 3, and Tesla's first negative free cash flow in two years amid $5.8 billion in quarterly capital spending.TESLA PUSHES BACK 2026 PRODUCTION GOALSTesla no longer expects volume production of the Cybercab, Semi, Megapack 3 or Optimus in 2026, blaming the need to scale 4680 battery output, even as quarterly revenue rose 26% to $28.2 billion on stronger deliveries. Despite the sales rebound, net income fell 5% to $1.1 billion, free cash flow turned negative $1 billion, and 2026 capital expenditure is now expected to reach $25 billion.DENZA Z9 GT OPENS UK ORDERSBYD's luxury brand Denza has opened UK orders for the Z9 GT shooting brake, starting at £105,000 for the EV and £95,000 for the plug-in hybrid, more than triple its Chinese starting price. The EV offers up to 599 km WLTP range, a 122.49 kWh Blade Battery 2.0 pack, tri-motor output of about 1,140 hp, and Flash Charging claiming 10-70% in roughly 5 minutes, as BYD tests premium pricing with a Daniel Craig/James Bond campaign.CARMAKERS PRESS UK TO REOPEN 2035 BANBMW, Ford, Nissan, Toyota and Bosch privately urged UK ministers in April to keep combustion, hybrid and range-extender vehicles on sale beyond 2035, citing the EU's softened 90% target and customer demand concerns. The Department for Transport insisted the 2035 phase-out is not being renegotiated, while critics including Polestar's UK boss and thinktank ECIU warned that delay risks jobs and climate goals despite the manufacturers employing about 30,000 people in the UK.BMW IX1 AND IX2 WIN FULL UK GRANTBMW secured the full £3,750 Electric Car Grant for the iX1 and iX2 in the UK, tied to its Science Based Targets commitment and the Regensburg plant's renewable energy use, making the iX1 eDrive20 Sport start at £33,315, cheaper than its petrol X1 equivalent. BMW also added a new, more affordable iX2 eDrive20 Sport variant at the same £33,315 starting price, alongside other grant-eligible trims.NHTSA OPENS RULE ON CAR DOOR ESCAPENHTSA has opened formal rulemaking on requiring reliable manual door-escape systems in new US cars, responding to a petition citing incidents where flush, electronic door handles—used notably by Tesla—trapped occupants after crashes or power loss. Bloomberg reported at least 15 deaths linked to such failures, and any final rule could force manufacturers to add mechanical backups and revise crash-test protocols, though the process is expected to take months to years.

Roberto and Jon are back for another relaxed unscripted conversation, beginning with Jon's ongoing battle with Nissan and the frustrations of modern customer service before moving onto some much happier news.Roberto shares the early success of his new Arsenal Women: Trailblazers podcast, which is rapidly approaching 500 downloads in its first month and already attracting listeners from across Europe, North America, South America, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Australia. The pair also explain some of the behind-the-scenes changes coming to Tailoring Talk Magazine as they work towards a more consistent and recognisable format for the show. The conversation then turns into a deep dive on Apple's latest public beta. Roberto shares his first impressions of the new Siri, Apple Intelligence, on-device AI, image generation, natural language search, and why this feels like the first version of Siri that genuinely gets out of your way instead of creating more friction. Jon and Roberto also discuss whether Apple's AI could replace ChatGPT for everyday users, what still separates dedicated AI models from Apple's approach, and why the improvements feel more evolutionary than revolutionary. Elsewhere they discuss David Pogue's new book Apple: The First 50 Years, Steve Jobs, Apple's remarkable business story, the colourful iMac G3 era, and why understanding Apple's history is valuable whether you're interested in technology or simply fascinated by great companies. The second half of the episode wanders through James Bond, tailoring, watches, gaming, Half-Life 2, Robocop, Telltale Games, Billy Eilish's new concert film, Apple Vision Pro, Netflix recommendations, and Roberto's ambitious new series exploring the costume and wardrobe of every official James Bond film, before finishing with an increasingly ridiculous discussion about making their own ultra-low-budget Bond film starring Roberto, Jon and Alex.It's another classic Tailoring Talk conversation covering technology, AI, Apple, gaming, business, James Bond, menswear, filmmaking, books and the creative projects currently keeping Roberto and Jon busy.Timestamps00:00 - Jon's Nissan saga and the importance of good customer serviccandidse03:00 - Arsenal Women: Trailblazers reaches nearly 500 downloads07:20 - Living with Apple's new Siri and iOS 27 public beta14:20 - Can Apple's AI replace ChatGPT for everyday users?25:30 - Apple: The First 50 Years and the business lessons from Apple's history34:00 - James Bond, tailoring and Roberto's new Bond wardrobe series42:40 - Gaming, Billy Eilish, Apple Vision Pro and making our own Bond film Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, I'm taking a look at one of the biggest trends I've seen in the overlanding world over the past year: the rapid rise of Alibaba campers. It feels like everywhere you look, more people are importing these campers directly from China—but are sales really exploding, and if so, why?I'll share what I've observed as both an owner and someone who's been closely following the market, including what's driving the demand, how pricing compares to traditional brands, and why more people are willing to take a chance on importing one themselves. We'll also talk about whether this is just a passing trend or if Alibaba campers are permanently changing the truck camper industry.If you've been wondering whether the hype is real, considering buying one yourself, or just want to understand why these campers seem to be everywhere lately, this episode is for you.Want one for yourself?

Nvidia is obviously in the news constantly because of the AI boom — but it's also a major supplier to the entire auto industry As head of Nvidia's automotive division, Xinzhou Wu has a front-row seat to all the challenges EVs and autonomous vehicles are facing, especially in the US. And of course, you can't talk about electric cars or vehicle autonomy in the US without talking about Elon Musk and Tesla. So I asked Xinzhou pretty directly if Tesla full self driving can actually do what Elon claims it will be able to do without using LiDAR. You tell me if you think his answer holds up.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we're throwing out the rulebook and sharing some of our most unpopular opinions from the JDM world. Some you'll agree with, some you'll absolutely hate—but that's what makes it fun. We debate everything from whether the Autech R33 GT-R Sedan is the coolest RB26-powered car ever built, to why over-modifying a car can actually make it less enjoyable to own. We also discuss up-badging, why tire choice says more about a car owner than most people realize, whether K-trucks are actually overrated, and even question if most '90s cars were really as good-looking as we remember.It's a laid-back episode full of hot takes, nostalgia, and plenty of friendly debate as we challenge some of the beliefs that have become gospel in the automotive community. Whether you agree with us or completely disagree, we want to hear your own unpopular opinions. 

In this episode of the Off-Road Racer Podcast, Matt Martelli sits down with Chris Forsberg, three time Formula Drift champion, Nissan driver, and one of the most recognizable names in modern motorsports.While Chris built his career in drifting, his approach has always gone beyond one discipline. From building cars in his own garage to developing a professional racing program, Chris has been involved in every part of the process. That same mindset eventually led him into the desert, taking on a completely different challenge behind the wheel of an off road race truck.Matt and Chris talk about the transition from drifting to desert racing, and the huge differences between precision driving on a short course and managing a vehicle for hours through unpredictable terrain. Chris shares what drew him to off road racing, his first experiences in Baja, and how he approached building a competitive program with the Nissan Frontier.They also get into the similarities between the two worlds. Vehicle control, preparation, car development, and the importance of understanding every part of the program. Chris talks about building his own race truck, working with partners, and why the best drivers are often the ones who understand the entire process behind the wheel.The conversation covers a lot of ground, from the evolution of Formula Drift and the Drift Alliance era, to OEM involvement, marketing, and how motorsports can connect with a wider audience. Chris also shares his perspective on where off road racing fits into the future of his program and why the challenge of desert racing continues to pull him back.More than anything, this episode is about a racer's mindset. Whether it's inches from a wall in a drift car or miles into the desert, the pursuit is the same: build something better, keep learning, and find the next challenge.

By the late 2000s, shrinking markets, tightening emissions, and a younger generation losing interest in vehicles signaled the end of the legendary JDM era. But a few rebellious engineers refused to go quietly, choosing instead to make their last cars arguably their greatest.In this second-to-last episode of Past Gas: The Golden Era of JDM, we explore the dramatic conclusion of Japan's greatest automotive era. Discover how Nissan built the R35 GT-R from scratch to successfully crush Porsche at the Nurburgring, why Toyota intentionally lost money on every screaming V10 LFA they built to educate their next generation of engineers, the heartbreaking cancellation of Honda's highly anticipated V10 NSX, and how Mazda kept the pure driving spirit alive despite the death of the rotary engine. This episode is brought to you by Lumi Gummies!
