i dont need another car, my ioniq is doing just dandy but i do fucking love the Seagull

€25600 43 kWh LFP 🔋 It’s happening ⚡️⚡️ #amsterdamelektrisch

Holiday fast charging prices in Switzerland - no crazy changes Electra increased their contactless price but you can still pay the old price with QR or app Tesla increased their peak price while lowering the night/morning prices even more AMAG special price ends soon Safe travels everyone!

EVs are close to 1 in 4 cars sold in November in Europe. 🇧🇪 🇩🇰 🇫🇮🇮🇪🇮🇸🇱🇺🇳🇴🇵🇹🇳🇱🇸🇪 buy EV over any other choice. Everything despite tariffs on Chinese EVs and with scarce offerings on B cars and small SUV, the best seller segments in Europe. Only delusional people really believe ICE cars will make it to 2035.

Every fifth new car across Western Europe now a pure electric model www.schmidtmatthias.de/post/every-f...

Pretty good summary of the reasons we might be underestimating oil demand destruction as @electricfelix.bsky.social saw not too long ago, China EV trucking is getting big quickly

Solar is and will be the main story in the energy sector for years to come ☀️ It is the dominant driver of change in global electricity generation ⚡️ Growth in Q1-Q3 2025 was much larger than from any other source. Wind was the only other source with a significant increase.

Paris has the Aceman in 2026 for under 150/week as I've been saying for years! #MINI ⚡️⚡️⚡️ #rentelectric

piloly: "Nine countries in Europe now have a BEV adoption rate over 25% 🇪🇺 Among the top five markets, the UK is ahead and close to joining the 25%-plus club. Poland saw the biggest increase from last year. Some European political parties are working hard to overturn the 2035 ban on selling cars w"

@electric-nick.bsky.social: "Q4 2025 is clearly shaping up to be a record quarter for BEV sales. Total new registrations will likely land between 700k and 750k, and the BEV share is on track to exceed 20% for the first time ever." #alwaysbecharging public.flourish.studio/story/234158...

One German Brand in the Chinese BEV Top 20 (VW) #alwaysbecharging Xiaomi, XPeng & Leapmotor registered (based on insurance numbers) well over a million BEVs in China together

@autoschmidt.bsky.social: "Despite individual months surpassing the total, with November being no exception at 25.5%, it is the first time on an annual cumulative basis that the volume has surpassed 20%, and it is expected to remain above that figure with just one month of the year remaining." ⚡️⚡️⚡️

remember Blume? "The Chinese luxury market does not exist anymore" (Blume, CEO of VW/Porsche) #alwaysbecharging ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Ach ja, danke für den reminder, @electricfelix.bsky.social: wir fuhren gestern von XPeng Frankfurt (Danke Lucas und Nico!) einen G6 Performance. - Klasse Navi - Klasse Spurhalte-Assistent - Comfi Kein nerviges Gebimmele wie bei #Tesla, stattdessen klare Ansage: Assistenzsystem = DU BIST der Fahrer!

Detroit’s rally masks a deeper disruption in autos @opinion.bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

In a xpeng p7 didi - he’s done 370,000km over 3 years battery declined from 450km to 390 😃

Now every year new renewable generation capacity is a few percent of *total primary* energy consumption, and a unit of electricity can displace 2-4 units of primary thermal energy. It's a tangled race between energy demand growth on one side, and electrification + deployment on the other.

Global solar deployment in 2024 shattered records, with nearly 600 gigawatts (GW) installed worldwide, a massive increase driven primarily by China, followed by the U.S. and India. 2025 will shatter that record, hitting over 800 GWs, despite the glass-half empty reporting out of the USA.

Pretty cool that there are Germans out there simply building the apps you need to "survive a typical German EV roadtrip" ⚡️⚡️⚡️ the RFID is too expensive (my opinion) but high quality I heard! #alwaysbecharging one day, we can hopefully do without #deutschland #bev chargingtime.de/en

22 new fast charging sites opened so far in December! 94 new connectors Top (sites/plugs): 5/30 GOFAST 4/16 Electra 4/8 Eni The new Tesla Crissier supercharger is hidden behind the Electra marker. They opened last but will probably still see the most sessions in December

1% of EVs in The Netherlands are sufficient to overrun all Dutch fast chargers, any moment any day Curious how these numbers will develop over time had a lot of fun with @dallus.bsky.social & Jurian Ubachs in #MNOT (Met Nerds om Tafel) pod #alwaysbecharging www.metnerdsomtafel.nl/podcast/449-...

"Chinese firms are on track for a 75% jump this year in global shipments of lithium-ion battery cells for energy storage,.. They have exported more than $65 billion worth of storage and electric-vehicle batteries this year, cementing their dominance in a sector vital to backing up wind and solar.."

even on Sunday more cars registered! Let's do daily updates till 2026 9 days to go 🇳🇱 27.794 cars registered in December 17.805 BEVs = 64% ⚡️⚡️⚡️ #alwaysbecharging Toyota back in the Top 10, will they stay there end of year?

"“There’s some real inefficiency in terms of European carmakers moving quickly and getting things done, and Chinese automakers going global shines a light on that,” said @colinmckerracher.bsky.social, BNEF’s head of clean transport." #alwaysbecharging www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Remember when these places were called gas stations? Yeah, me neither :D #alwaysbecharging 📍🇩🇰🇩🇰 www.linkedin.com/posts/rasmus...

Imagine that: buying your first ever EV and planning a one day 1600 km roadtrip to 🇸🇪 for your first week of ownership! OH YES :D #alwaysbecharging ⚡️⚡️⚡️ very happy to run into these fresh CLA owners (bought the machine yesterday!) owned a shooting break mild hybrid before

Jesse Peltan: "Every chart about Chinese industry looks just like this." #alwaysbecharging nitter.net/JessePeltan/...

Jesse Peltan: "Solar was 3/4 of the growth in electricity supply in both China and the U.S. in the last 12 months. The difference is that China is growing 4x faster." 🌞🌞🌞 #alwaysbecharging nitter.net/JessePeltan/...

in other words, most days it was quiet back in 2018, and there was only 2x50kW available at Lepelaar fast-forward seven years: it's never quiet at Lepelaar and recently Fastned upgraded to 8x300kW #alwaysbecharging #timetravel #netherlands #bev ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Last month on the Jon Stewart show when China's energy policy came up in an interview he immediately responded that china was building new coal power plants as fast as they can. We need to get people to understand reality and the US media is not helping.

Interesting: a subsidiary of Volkswagen is voicing support for local content rules in Europe www.ft.com/content/1601...

Great article. If US automakers aren’t aggressively pursuing innovative solutions in EV technology, they will be left behind.

After watching the video and reading the article, I really need to do a post on this. It exciting and also frustrating (being in the US where idiots continue to hamper our technological advancements in all areas)

A warning to any automakers slowing down in the EV race: Chinese giant BYD is making the impossible possible. insideevs.com/features/782...

Never ever was The Netherlands "doing a Norway" It's happening: the full top 10 registrations 🇳🇱 with 2/3 of the month done is BEV ⚡️⚡️⚡️ Consider me amazed (as a resident!) #alwaysbecharging and look who's back in that Number #1 spot! www.kentekenradar.nl

Fortunes vary across the world: "If we look at Europe, what we've seen is quite a decline.. some of the countries are faring quite badly: If we think about France, in 2023, they produced about 1.5 million vehicles. In 2024, that was less than one million.. And then boom, we add China onto the chart"

rafajbuendia (SOAPBOX): "European advanced economies account for 40% of China’s electric car exports" #alwaysbecharging nitter.net/RafaJBuendia...

Thailand (and several other SE Asian countries) are installing Chinese fast chargers too. A year ago, they were stuck with slow/unreliable 50-150kW chargers, now these faster ones are being installed around the country. youtu.be/X_lSfxBX_B4

I’m not prone to hyperbole, but this is a huge deal. 21,000,000,000 Watts of solar on impacted land.

Chinese EVs: overdiscussed Chinese EV ecosystem: underdiscussed ⚡️⚡️⚡️ News from Mexico: warming up for Chinese fast chargers #alwaysbecharging www.electrive.com/2025/12/06/x...

"Timed to coincide with the BEV launches by Mitsubishi and Nissan, Toyota's and JAMA's anti-BEV information strategies started around '09-'10, targeting the public and policymakers through the media and company communication channels..." Toyota, biggest anti-EV lobbyist globally. 🤮

"This comparison in the NYTimes today is pretty stark. China is racing ahead to be a high-tech exporter of 21st century technologies, while the US is doubling down on being a petro-state exporting the technologies of the 19th century" Thread nytimes.com/interactive/... bsky.app/profile/70sb...
