However, Tesla is slowing down its peak rate of supercharging, to protect and preserve the battery, for the past couple of years. It helps that it has free supercharging, Read more

I don’t know why people are getting freaked out by the e-tron naming convention; Audi has previous form here with Quattro. Read more

Ah, I see even site writers are plagued by the wild kinja bug that just decides to randomly re-arrange words.  Read more
