Tesla Model S Plaid testing on Nürburgring reveals major EV flaw that likely affects many more electric vehicles

Professional driver Misha Charoudin has put the Tesla Model S Plaid through its paces on the Nürburgring and found the car lacking. Charoudin dubbed Tesla's sports car "Dangerously fast and unstable," on account of its incredible power output paired with less-than-adequate suspension and braking hardware. The very nature of an electric vehicle drivetrain means these criticisms are likely applicable to many performance EVs currently on the market.

Rivian u-turns on Tank Turn, raising questions about environmental impact of heavy off-road EVs

Rivian has tanked the Tank Turn feature that was slated to come to the Rivian R1T. The feature, which would allow drivers to spin the wheels on opposite sides of the electric vehicle in opposite directions to turn the vehicle on the spot, was pitched as a boon for off-roading. The eco-friendly reason for the feature's cancellation has stirred up some criticism related to the weight of the Rivian.
