Apple's AI-powered brooch can be clipped to clothing or worn on a necklace to serve as the eyes and ears of the user's iPhone that will do all the heavy AI processing. Apple is pulling forward all of its AI wearables, like camera-equipped AirPods or elegant smart glasses that will enter production in December.

Ford's new universal electric vehicle platform has been engineered for the ultimate in energy efficiency from the get-go. The $30,000 pickup truck will be much cheaper than the average new car in the US, as it now needs a much smaller battery despite its longer range.

The record-breaking hybrid electrolyte solid-state battery has been crafted with manganese instead of nickel to lower costs. Its 500 Wh/kg energy density is still double that of high-end LFP batteries.

The ongoing DRAM and storage memory price gouging that is caused by the AI data center boom will affect gaming consoles, too. As a result, console makers like Nintendo or Sony are adjusting their sales and launch strategies.

As Tesla's January sales are down 17% year-on-year and it reported its first-ever annual revenue decline, it is trying to turn things around, at least in the US. The 2026 Model Y Premium trims are now getting their first APR financing deal for the year.

A drink driving sentence has been issued in one of the first cases that punishes tricking an autonomous driving system into thinking there is a person behind the wheel. The system usually nags the driver to pay attention.

The next-gen HBM4 stacks exceed JEDEC and Nvidia specifications with speeds up to 13 Gbps and bandwidth of 3.3 TB/s, while delivering higher energy efficiency, improved thermals, and up to 36 GB capacity per 12‑layer stack. This is the priciest memory Nvidia has ever ordered for AI data center cards, though.

The world’s first solid-state battery standard sets performance, safety, and categorization benchmarks as automakers and cell manufacturers race to commercialize hybrid or all-solid-state electrolyte technologies. Targeting production EVs from 2027 onward, the effort aims to accelerate deployment of safer cells with high energy density while bringing order to a rapidly evolving and strategically important battery technology.

Toyota won't be releasing a Highlander hybrid and is instead going straight for battery power. This makes the 2027 Highlander its first 3-row SUV with an all-electric powertrain.

The interior of the upcoming electric Ferrari has been spruced up by Jony Ive's renowned skeuomorphism, or design with a human feel. Apple's former design chief is not a fan of Tesla's cold, practical approach to EV interiors.

Instead of going to Mars, a feat that Elon Musk now says is not as feasible as he was envisioning, SpaceX will focus on something way closer to Earth. Something that he himself called a 'distraction' from the Mars mission.

After finishing its cold weather tests at -40 Fahrenheit in Inner Mongolia, the world's biggest battery maker, CATL, and Changan have announced the first mass-market EV with a sodium-ion battery. The sedan can be charged at arctic temperatures, and the Na-ion pack doesn't lose capacity.
