Tesla is known for its innovations in electric vehicles and has been among the top EV competitors for years. Among its current model lineup is the Tesla Model 3. Currently, the baseline Model 3 is the company's most affordable model. It's more affordable than many other luxury EV models in 2021.

The recent White House EV executive order event in DC had attendance CEOs from Ford and GM and the COO from Stellantis North America. Noticeably absent was Tesla's Elon Musk. Let's take a look at why Elon isn't getting flooded with invitations by the current administration.

Can you get a DUI with Tesla Autopilot? While some may think Autopilot means they don’t need to worry about their intoxication levels, this isn’t true.

Tesla has been pretty infamous due to Autopilot, which is Tesla's name for its semi-autonomous self-driving system. Cars with features like Autopilot are semi-autonomous because, ultimately, they are not true self-driving cars, and they can be tricked by things, including a particular road in Yosemite National Park.

Tesla applies for another new patent for the already over-promised and delayed Tesla Cybertruck. But is it actually getting made?

Tesla stock is through the roof, even as Musk's eccentric leadership triggers the occasional SEC investigation. Does this mean that the electric vehicle (EV) is catching on across the country, or is Tesla simply an outlier? The president and CEO of NADA recently shared his opinion.

During Tesla's Artificial Intelligence Day founder Elon Musk revealed the humanoid robot it is working on using many components from Tesla cars. Are we headed toward a Blade Runner future?

The Tesla Supercharger network is expanding. With Tesla opening up its charging network to all electric vehicles, they’re increasing access to all EVs.

Two U.S. senators want Tesla investigated by the Federal Trade Commission. They say Tesla claims Autopilot and FSD are more autonomous than they are.

The Tesla Model S is a hell of an EV. Currently, the top-tier Plaid model is just about the fastest thing in a straight line out there. However, its biggest competitor isn't another luxury EV like a Lucid or Rivian. No, it's something a little more... economical. The Nissan Leaf. Frankly, it's pretty surprising. The two really could not be more different. However, given the wealth divide we see in America, maybe it makes sense.

As EVs become a larger and larger part of our lives, there's naturally more competition in the marketplace. No, I'm not just talking about the sheer number of new EV makers out there. I'm also talking about charging. Outside of Tesla's proprietary Supercharger network, Americans increasingly have more choice in where they charge. However, for now, there's really only one manufacturer who's really figured it out. I'll give you three guesses.

We've kind of been programmed to think that EVs are cheaper than gas cars. For example, the cost of parts is less than gas vehicles simply because there's less bouncing around under that hood. It's just a brushless motor and some electrons. Gross oversimplification, I know. Moreover, we've been told that the cost to go places is less. That's true, but the infrastructure needed to support electric vehicle charging isn't cheap. Biden's electric vehicle plan will cost trillions. However, the electric vehicle push is already costing automakers billions.

The Tesla Model S Plaid is the newest edition of the Model S, offering all of the much-needed changes and upgrades with a complete redesign of the interior. Besides the impressive performance, the Tesla Model S Plaid offers so many luxuries and features that it's just become a cool place to go and hangout overall.

EV maker Rivian has set its sights high. The brand wants to take down Tesla's market share, and fast. To do that, they need to make cars. To do that, they need a place to build them. In light of that, the brand has begun construction on a second factory out on the Texas plains. However, this isn't a solo venture. Rivian, like many EV automakers, got a nice helping hand from Uncle Sam. To the tune of millions.

The Boulder Sheriff’s Department shared that they will be testing a 2021 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD as a patrol vehicle. They are keenly aware that many people perceive Tesla vehicles as luxury options.

Tesla’s Autopilot feature is marketed as being safe, but the NHTSA is investigating Tesla for Autopilot accidents with emergency vehicles.

Used vehicle prices are sky-high and they aren't lasting long in the listings. Surprisingly, the top three fastest-selling used cars are all EVs.

Let's be honest. Tesla needs some good press right now. Unfortunately, the brand is nearly constantly under fire for its self-driving software and somewhat spotty build quality. Not to mention the Twitter antics of Elon Musk, or Doge Tony Stark as I once heard him called. Thankfully, the Tesla Model Y is here to deliver that PR win for the brand. Currently, it's the most-registered EV in the first half of this year.

Tesla Autopilot is under fire. Again. This time, rather than a few journalists relaying stories from behind a keyboard (hi), things are a lot more serious. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) opened a formal investigation into Tesla's proprietary adaptive cruise control software. Unfortunately, this comes after a series of accidents, some of them fatal. We've heard about these stories before, and admittedly, I've covered several of them. But now, Tesla is in real hot water with the Feds.

The Cyberlandr camper already has over $80 million in pre-orders. There seems to be almost as much buzz about this camper as there is for the Cybertruck itself.
