Saturday Surge - February 6, 2021

Each week, we run across many stories that we’d love to share, but often run out of time to do so. To make sure that you don’t miss out, we round up some of them here for your viewing/reading/listening pleasure on Saturdays.

Surging this week: Electrek tells us about some new Tesla Model S and X features we may not have heard about. Mercedes-Benz parent company Daimler is splitting into two companies to better handle the transition to EV. Is Tesla’s upcoming $25,000 hatchback on the fast track? MotorWeek tests the Harley-Davidson LiveWire. A pair of Porsche Taycans went endurance record hunting at Brands Hatch. The Amazon van by Rivian is starting to make deliveries. CleanTechnica has listed the vehicles from the 1970s they’d most like to convert to EV. And finally, the Bowlus Road Chief Terra Firma is a lightweight, very luxurious, camper that can charge your EV, the only catch? It’s pretty pricey. Enjoy!
