In covering car news, I will sometimes look at a new piece of technology and do a double take. “That can’t be real, it is simply too stupid for a room of automotive engineers to have signed off on it.” Often times, those pieces of tech are on Stellantis vehicles. Here’s a winner that I […]| FuelArc News
Well folks, it finally happened. The screen in your pickup truck… your last bastion of peace from the chaos of unskippable advertisements… now plays popup ads. Not even subtle ones. We’re talking full-dash, head-unit-commandeering infomercial panels in your RAM 1500, like you’re driving a Times Square billboard on wheels. It all kicked off with a […]| FuelArc News
This Tesla Robotaxi demo video is a mess. Watch as the car makes a left turn from the wrong lane. The safety operator steps in, and the car comes to a stop… right in the middle of the intersection. Eventually, it completes the illegal left turn on red, which raises the question, what exactly is […] The post Tesla Robotaxi Stops Mid-Intersection & Runs a Red Light… The Influencer Onboard Calls It “Impressive” appeared first on FuelArc News.| FuelArc News
TL;DR: Tesla self-driving tech is becoming less safe per mile, according to Tesla’s own data. Q1 2025 was 2.5% worse than Q1 2024. Q2 2025 was 2.8% worse than Q2 2024.

Let’s start with the news: Grok 4 is out today. That’s the most recent iteration of xAI’s conversational AI. Tucked into the Tweet-storm around the release, Elon Musk promised that Grok would be added to Tesla vehicles by “next week at the latest.” The Grok 4 rollout is not going too smoothly, and it isn’t […] The post Elon Musk Promises Grok in Tesla Vehicles By Next Week… as the New Grok 4 Blames “Anti-White Hate” on “Jews” appeared first on FuelArc News.| FuelArc News
Grok, Elon Musk’s homegrown AI assistant on X, has spent the last 48 hours praising Adolf Hitler, parroting racial science, and declaring that Ashkenazi Jews push “anti-white hate.” Like, honestly. What happened behind the scenes to cause this AI output? We’ll dig into the likely cause. For Instance, Grok Now Cites Ugly Antisemitic Tropes Jeez!

With all of the talk about unsupervised Robotaxis, you might reasonably wonder when Tesla’s self-driving tech will be ready to roam American roads without a human ready to step in. Not too soon, based on recent videos of self-driving Teslas trying to drive into oncoming traffic.

There was a time when the Nissan Sentra was ubiquitous. I drove a ‘94 for years… manual windows, cloth seats, bulletproof engine. Nothing fancy. Just a humble little box that got you to work, the store, and back again without asking for much. The kind of car you miss only when it’s gone. That kind […] The post Nissan: “Urgent Support Needed,” According to Insider Emails appeared first on FuelArc News.| FuelArc News
Let’s say your Cybertruck pops a tire, or needs a new windshield, or you just looked at it funny and the glued-on stainless steel panels fell off. No worries! Tesla’s got you covered.

That’s it, y’all. The article title is the whole article. Tesla celebrated their first autonomous vehicle delivery after a new Model Y drove itself about 30 minutes from the Gigafactory in Austin TX to the customer’s home.

After Tesla requested reimbursement for an unprecedented 8,669 Canadian EV rebates in just three days, the Canadian government froze Tesla’s rebate payments and paused all future eligibility for federal rebates.
