Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

Vehicle Walkthrough

Thanks for sharing! Interesting to see that they went with cameras instead of conventional mirrors. More failure modes, but the auto-night-vision seems pretty neat.

I recall that the original Tesla Semi concept had no mirrors, but they eventually added them for the production version. I wonder if we'll see more vehicles without mirrors in the future.

It's got a lot of neat features, but I was surprised by the steering most of all. Wish I could get crab mode on my car for parallel parking
