GAME OVER PETROL?! – Petrol Cars Are Losing... Officially!

In this month’s episode of Almost Breaking News, UK EV sales just overtook petrol cars for the first time despite heavy lobbying from oil companies, carmakers, and unions!

Toyota’s 750-mile solid-state battery, Nio’s 62% sales jump, France’s mandatory solar carports, retired EV batteries getting a second life, a billionaire’s small modular nuclear bet, a new battery recycling alliance from CATL and Ellen MacArthur, and a Tesla Gigafactory battery heist spree!
