Tesla, once a favorite for effortless electric driving, faces scrutiny due to recalls and its CEO's political involvement, leading to distancing from the brand. Despite early issues, Tesla's S3XY lineup and Supercharger network have been key advantages, though opening this network to other brands like Ford and Hyundai diminishes this edge. The Cybertruck, symbolically tied to conservative movements, may not appeal to everyone, but Tesla's Mobile Megawatt Charging System, developed with Ian Wright and Komatsu, offers innovative charging solutions for electric machines on job sites.

Trek has launched its first throttle-equipped e-bike, the FX+ 1, targeting North American markets seeking more versatility. This model features a 500W motor, a 540Wh battery providing up to 50 miles of range, and a top speed adjustable to 28 mph. With integrated lights and an 8-speed Shimano drivetrain, the FX+ 1 caters to urban and light off-road riding. Trek's introduction of throttle models marks a strategic shift, aligning with consumer demands and positioning the brand against newer competitors in the e-bike market. Additionally, Komatsu's Mobile Megawatt Charging System, designed with Dimaag, offers a scalable power solution up to 6 MW for electric construction equipment, featuring advanced thermal management and robust mobility features for challenging job sites.
