@purplepingers This is false

Billionaires shouldn’t exist.

@cybertruck @werosolo Maybe this is why Australians love you… we’ve been waiting 7 years… it’s getting a bit ridiculous… when Cybertruck? When are you coming to Australia? 🇦🇺

@werosolo Absence makes the heart grow fonder

Software update. Says don’t touch it for 55 minutes. I’ll try. 🥹📐

Imagine if the previous gov’mt didn’t shit on EVs and actually encouraged suppliers to import EVs. Imagine if they had incentivised charging infrastructure. We’d be at 25-50% new car sales being electric and there’d be more fuel to go around for our farmers yet to move over to electric.

Imagine our position if Australia had its own refineries

@ryanjaycowan The Kia has onboard 240v outlet… it has that one thing better than a YL.

It's CRAZY to me that the Model Y L is $20k cheaper than the Kia EV9 here in Australia, yet 1000x better in every single way.

@niccruzpatane Does it have a 240v accessory Power outlet in the cabin?

The Tesla Model Y L is nearly $16,000 USD ($22K AUD) cheaper than the base level Kia EV9 in Australia.

@ryanjaycowan I’d love to see your comparison, of this modelYL and a secondhand 6 seat Model X.

Go harder into the adventure market RJ, it’s the one place where autonomy makes the least sense. Fund EV adventurer channels that aren’t Rivian. Partner with automotive groups like @NRMA to create charging oasis in remote locations to enable/make safe access for remote communities.

I’m excited to announce a partnership with @Uber. As part of this, Uber plans to invest up to $1.25 billion in Rivian and deploy up to 50,000 R2 robotaxis. This partnership accelerates our path to Level 4 autonomy and supports our goal of building one of the safest autonomous platforms in the world—across both shared and personally owned vehicles. The combination of Rivian’s rapidly growing data flywheel, our in-house RAP1 inference platform (800 TOPS), and our multi-modal perception stack provides a powerful foundation to scale autonomy quickly and responsibly over the next couple of years.

@KiwiEV Youve gotta say the brand and model Gavin!! Oh, hang on it’s not an EV never mind.

Crikey. According to the Herald, today's mega fire in Auckland was started by a high performance combustion vehicle which self-ignited and was unable to be put out. NZ Fire have since suppressed the fire, thankfully. Huge respect to our underfunded fire crews out there keeping us safe.

@HikingViking_80 @sydney_ev You’re comment makes it clear you don’t own the technology or understand it. Ask more questions. People in rural areas that are likely to use these facilities, How far out do you think they are driving from on average?

@sydney_ev You couldn't make this shit up .. fucking retards A 7kW charger can take approximately 8 hours to fully recharge a Tesla Model 3 or Y with a 60 kWh battery. For larger batteries, like the 75 kWh version, it may take around 10 to 12 hours to fully charge.

Big step for regional EV owners: Essential Energy trialing 300 streetlight 7kW chargers across rural/remote NSW! Using existing poles/wires to cut costs & create charging where none exists. ARENA-funded, open to private operators. No more 'range anxiety' excuses for the bush

@ryanjaycowan @battleangelviv Ok, I don’t understand… do you just use table lamps?

@battleangelviv 😂 when we built our house, I told the electrician we didn't want any ceiling lights .. he looked at me like I was crazy.

having a hard time trusting anyone with indoor lighting temperature above maybe 3000K why would you make your house feel like an operating room!

@BladeoftheS @SuDharmapala That’s not how money works….

The right wing papers are saying the pension age needs to be raised to 75. I counter, the number of billionaires needs to be reduced to 0. That will affect 0.00006% of people, and they will still be far too rich. But it will pay for pensions, healthcare, housing and much more.

@Real_King_Elvis If we did this we would have a significantly more resilient grid, cheaper electricity, a circular resource economy locally with refined exports for global markets. The rate of EV uptake will easily guide new generation growth.

If we swapped all 20 million vehicles to EV's we'd need ~44-50 TWh more electricity annually. If we did this EV switch, it would risk blackouts, price spikes, and instability without massive immediate infrastructure. If the majority of drivers plugged in after work, it would be catastrophic. If we had a wind/sun drought, can you imagine the mayhem?

@99thinkaboutit @drsmithy @Real_King_Elvis What’s more likely, the average consumer having solar and batteries installed or DIY an engine rebuild and a literal home refinery? Which is simpler? EVs win. ICE is a dead end.

@drsmithy @Real_King_Elvis You do understand I can run an ICE car on a bottle of Everclear right? It can also be converted to burn cooking oil or propane.

@SawyerMerritt “Write down tied to its EV business”— yes they refused to explore how to make compelling EVs profitably.

NEWS: Honda is reportedly cancelling the Prologue EV in the US at the end of this year, just two years after it was introduced. This means that starting in January 2027, Honda will no longer have any new EVs for sale in its lineup in America. Through Jan-Feb 2026, Honda has sold just 1,731 Prologues, down 75% from the same period last year. Prologue pricing & EPA range: • EX: $47,400, 308 miles • EX AWD: $50,400, 294 miles • Touring: $51,700, 308 miles • Touring AWD: $55,155, 294 miles • Elite: $58,355, 283 miles Last week, Honda announced it expects to report its first annual loss in nearly 70 years as a public company in the fiscal year ending March 2026, after recording a $15.7 billion write-down tied to its EV business. Honda said: “The situation changed far more rapidly than we expected. The suspension of EV subsidies in North America undercut growth, and competition in China meant we couldn’t provide attractive models or maintain our competitive edge.”

@WR4NYGov They are linked to his comp package, just not explicitly, to reach each of those tranches he needs those four things amongst a multitude of other unarticulated milestones.

Elon is focussing on goals that are not incentivized by his comp package Chip fab Digital optimus AI space compute Solar cell production Does this bother you? Or does this mean he's motivated by what's best for the company (and for humanity), not what makes him the most money?

@cybertruck @DavidMoss @JoeTegtmeyer Yes, big brother loves me, 2+2=5

@DavidMoss @JoeTegtmeyer Got put on big brother duty

Tesla Cybercab being pulled by Cybertruck all through downtown Austin! Thx for photo bombing my pic @JoeTegtmeyer 😂😉👍

@techAU Grok

Wait, so is Ashok not leading the FSD team anymore? If not, who is?

@miles_commodore Yes, I’ve heard this story before… there must be more to it… something about X must have had a profound effect on Y in your life.

When a family member over 85 years old is telling you a story for the 28th time, should you say something or play along?

@BladeoftheS How do you account for company shares and investments?

The Green Party have proposed a policy where the highest paid person in a company could only earn 10x as much as the lowest, currently the ratio is over 1000x in some companies. Do you agree?

@TheEVuniverse Excluding the charge port would be unlikely. With that location why did they not angle it up to put less stress on the port when plugging/unplugging?

Implies charge port will be there in production vehicle?
