Container handler manufacturer Taylor Machine Works will implement a robotic charging system from Rocsys for its second-generation ZLC electric container handler. Rocsys says robotic charging of EVs provides charging at scale around the clock without the need for human interaction at the vehicle, enabling dependable, fast charging with reduced wear and tear on charging cables

Honda has a redesigned CR-V on sale for 2023, but the version featured here won’t appear in showrooms. It’s a one-off build developed by Honda Performance Development, both as a promotional tool and a rolling laboratory. Called the CR-V Hybrid Racer, it’s built around a custom frame and packs the new hybrid powertrain Honda is

Chinese battery-maker CATL has chosen to use Japan-based Toyocolor‘s Lioaccum conductive carbon nanotube (CNT) dispersion for its high-capacity Li-ion batteries. The batteries will be installed in mass-produced vehicles beginning in 2024.  According to Toyocolor, its Lioaccum dispersion CATL contributes to expanded battery capacity and energy density through adoption of highly conductive CNTs. Battery cathodes consist

Obviously, any fleet electrification project is going to include vehicles and charging hardware. However, don’t forget another critical part of the equation: a charge management system. For many—or probably, most—fleet operators, power consumption is a major constraint. Charging stations that serve large fleets and/or heavy-duty vehicles suck up vast amounts of power. Using charge management

Cadillac is no stranger to international motorsports, even in sports prototype racing, which is typically dominated by European brands outside North America. Cadillac last raced a prototype at the prestigious 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2002, when it ran a program to highlight the performance of its Northstar V-8. Now it’s set to return

EV manufacturer Envirotech Vehicles (EVTV), working with aviation refueling equipment maker Garsite, will deliver an electric aircraft refueler to Atlantic Aviation in Colorado. Phillip Oldridge, CEO of EVTV, said: “We are proud to deliver the first all-electric aircraft refueler to Atlantic Aviation and further plan to continue fulfilling the aviation industry’s demand for more sustainable ground

British solid-state battery manufacturer Ilika Technologies is leading a 24-month, £8.2-million Faraday Battery Challenge collaboration project. Code-named HISTORY, the project’s focus is on integrating high-silicon-content electrodes into the company’s Goliath solid-state battery in order to enable automotive-level performance. Ilika will receive a grant of £2.8 million from the project and will partner with the manufacturer

Barn finds aren’t as common as they used to be, but there are still a few hidden gems out there, like this rare 1931 Duesenberg Model J, which was recently uncovered after almost six decades in storage. Classic car YouTube channel Nobody’s Show documented the story of the Duesenberg, which was parked in 1967 and

Tesla has entered into a Binding Offtake Agreement with Australia-based Magnis Energy Technologies, “a vertically integrated lithium-ion battery technology and materials company,” for anode active materials (AAM).   Magnis is developing a graphite mine in Tanzania where it plans to extract “ultra-high-purity natural flake graphite.” Tesla plans to purchase at least 17,500 tons per year (tpa)
