Mercedes-Benz has just revealed what could be one of the most luxurious electric people carriers. The new VLE is a high-tech, software-defined van which can ferry up to eight passengers.
It has ultra-fast charging speeds, well over 400 miles of WLTP range and plenty of gizmos inside to keep the passengers entertained when they’re roadtripping. And it’s headed to the U.S.
Here’s what else is on the menu today:
Donut Lab’s third test evaluates whether its solid-state battery is actually a supercapacitor.
Renault is already doing great in the European EV market. But it wants more.
The latest addition to the Porsche Cayenne EV lineup slots perfectly between the base model and the Turbo.
