Yes, this is also being followed by EVsoup, but I use mBlip more, and this is one of my personal favorites.
Welcome to Transport Evolved! Join us every day for content from Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield, Kate Walton-Elliott, Erin Carlie and Michael Horton as they explore and explain the world of cleaner, greener, safer, and smarter transport. Between us, we’ve got more than 20 years of driving cleaner, greener vehicles, and we believe that the future of transport depends on a whole lot more than one company!
From Tesla to Toyota and Faraday Future to Ford, we provide analysis and insight in a balanced and independent way.

Widely considered the "gold standard" of global energy analysis, this report offers a comprehensive roadmap of where the planet stands today and,…
From Transport Evolved. There are plenty of benefits for Ford F150 Lightning owners thanks to the truck’s close relationship with the gasoline F150—from shared components to a wealth of aftermarket add-ons. But the Lightning also inherits one less desirable trait: its massive shifter. Designed to auto-fold so the center console can become a makeshift desk…

From Transport Evolved. Thinking about adding semi-autonomous driving to your EV? Both Nikki and Kate’s families have Comma systems—Kate has one in her 2019 Kia Niro, and Nikki’s wife has one in her 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV Premiere. So far, they’ve been smooth… except for Kate’s pesky broken USB port. At Comma Con 2025, the…
From Transport Evolved. As more people switch from fossil fuels to electric vehicles, governments are starting to worry about lost revenue from fuel taxes. The response? Laws that would tax EV owners based on the miles they drive. On the surface, these taxes are framed as “fair”: EV owners should contribute to road maintenance and…
From Transport Evolved. Like many modern EVs, the Ford F-150 Lightning benefits from over-the-air software upgrades — adding new features or tweaking existing ones for free, without ever visiting a dealership. But over the four-and-a-bit years of its production, the Lightning has also gained new features at the factory that haven’t always been made available…
From Transport Evolved. It’s been almost five years since the Ford Mustang Mach-E first broke cover at the LA Auto Show — and promptly sent Mustang purists into a tailspin with its all-electric drivetrain and SUV-like stance. Since then, we’ve had plenty of seat time with the original Mach-E and its many siblings: the Mach-E…

Over the next six weeks, more people will be on the move, traveling to spend time with the people they care about than at any other point in the year. This year, however, unpredictable conditions at many U.S.…
From Transport Evolved. Most new electric vehicles we get to test are massive luxury SUVs or oversized pickup trucks — impressive, sure, but not exactly aligned with our mission to cover cleaner, greener, safer, smarter, and more equitable transportation and energy. But this summer, Nikki finally got a break from blinged-out behemoths and slid behind…

From Transport Evolved. A few weeks ago, Nikki’s Charge Station Pro stopped connecting to the home network. Even a factory reset couldn’t bring it back to initial setup.
