Charging in the US
In a move to address the persistent issue of EV charging, the Biden administration has announced a new set of measures aimed at creating a network of government and private charging stations that will work with all EVs.
According to White House infrastructure coordinator Mitch Landrieu, the new standards will make charging an electric car as easy as filling a gas tank, regardless of car model or location. The plan also includes commitments from Tesla to build a network of at least 7,500 chargers that will be open to all electric car drivers by the end of 2024. The administration’s goal is to oversee a national network of 500,000 electric vehicle chargers by 2030, as part of the the bipartisan infrastructure law allocating $7.5 billion to EV charging efforts EV charging company Ford use.

The Pole to Pole Expedition team and Nissan have jointly revealed the adventure-equipped electric SUV Ariya. Changes to the Ariya have been kept minimal to showcase the car’s true capabilities, with suspension and 39-inch tires being the most noticeable changes.

The expedition will also include a sustainable coffee espresso machine and a drone that can be launched from the roof, as well as a portable, renewable energy unit to charge the electric car’s battery in polar regions.
