This searing yellow, fighter-jet-canopied wonder has a hexagonal yoke, a missile-launching joystick (probably), and a "Gamer" mode that rates your driving skill. It’s brilliant and Kia has deliberately told us absolutely nothing about the price or performance.

An architecture firm invented the Solaris, a solar-powered motorcycle with retractable wings that charge itself like a flamboyant sunflower. It's a self-sustaining leopard of the road, giving riders absolute freedom from charging stations.

The EV is finally doing something truly vital. An Oxford crew put batteries in Land Rovers so a Kenyan safari can stick it to the mud and the diesel-delivery gods. It's an automotive genius, a solar-powered, whispering giant for the giraffes and lots of cute elephants.

A single-seat electric hoverbike for $99,900. It's Part 103 legal, uses 48 tiny jet fans, and flies for a solid 10 to 15 minutes on a promise and a prayer. If the solid-state battery shows up, you can finally commute like a high-powered, low-altitude vacuum cleaner.

This 1972 BMW 2002, converted by Bavarian Econs Tech, now boasts a Tesla heart and i3 lungs, making a classic German coupé as quiet as a church mouse. With 178 horsepower and a 124-mile range, it’s a beautifully executed contradiction - all vintage looks, zero oily drama.

Porsche’s new Cayenne Electric is here, and the numbers are laughable. With 1,139 horsepower, 0-60 mph in 2.4 seconds, and charging speeds that defy physics, this isn't just an SUV - it’s a nuclear reactor with cup holders.

The "flying car" is finally here. Sort of. For $280,000, XPENG's Aridge gives you a two-seater drone... and the six-wheeled truck to carry it in. It's the most gloriously unnecessary, but brilliant "what if" I've seen in years.

It's happening. The future of mobility is taking a huge leap in China.
Chinese company Aridge (formerly XPeng AeroHT) has just rolled out the very first "Land Aircraft Carrier" from its newly completed mass-production line.

I think you got that one wrong... BYD charger: 1,000V & 1,000A delivering 1MW - 400 km in 5 minutes for 10C battery. Huawei has 1.5 MW charger, Zeekr has a 1.2 MW charger in the works... none of them need 400kV, none of them look like that pylon ;) You missed the point - read the WHOLE article ;)
