Q: Why is Tesla Making Headlines with Musk and Trump?
Tesla’s name has always sparked debates, but now it’s in the spotlight for a new reason. Elon Musk’s public split with Donald Trump has reportedly sent waves through both Silicon Valley and Wall Street. Experts say this “Musk/Trump divorce” could influence not just Tesla’s stock but the pace of EV innovation itself.
The Electrek Podcast breaks down what this crossfire means for consumers, investors, and the future of clean transportation.
Q: How Are Electric Vehicles (EVs) Performing in Europe?
According to new data revealed on the show, EVs now claim an unprecedented 16% of Europe’s new car sales—a record-shattering figure expected to climb even higher as 2025 unfolds. European governments are doubling down on Tesla’s Model Y and other top performers, rolling out fresh incentives to entice buyers toward sustainable options.
Analysts expect further growth thanks to plummeting battery prices and expanded charging infrastructure.
How Is Hyundai Charging Forward in the EV World?
Perhaps the biggest bombshell from this week: Hyundai’s sleek new electric minivan. This futuristic, high-tech vehicle isn’t just for families—industry insiders predict it’ll give both Tesla and legacy automakers a run for their money.
Hyundai plans to deliver over 2 million EVs by the end of 2025, with bold styling, luxurious interiors, and ultra-fast charging times. The Electrek crew unpacked how Hyundai’s aggressive move could reshape the entire global market.
