    The 2027 Chevy Bolt’s Production Run Might Be Even Shorter Than Originally Expected (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Chevy giveth and Chevy may quickly taketh away. The Bolt EV, which was reintroduced for the 2027 model year as an improved version of the previous Bolt EUV, was always known to be a limited-time-only affair. Based on factory capacity, the Fairfax plant in Kansas City, Kansas, where the Bolt is assembled, could have churned out up to 150,000 units of the revived Bolt. Reuters is now reporting that the target number is much lower. The reporting is based on documents from the United Auto Workers (U

    Hyundai's Future Off-Roader Could Make It a Lot Easier to Remove the Hard Top (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    If you’ve ever tried to wrestle the hard top off a Jeep Wrangler or a Ford Bronco, you know it’s not exactly a one-person job. There’s a reason companies sell hoists that install on a garage ceiling for just this purpose. But a new patent application from Hyundai and Kia shows that there may be a better, easier way. For starters, the hard-top design described is modular: it consists of two side panels, a rear panel, and a roof panel. U.S. patent application 19/071,347, Modular Canopy Assembly Sy

    Ford Patents a Pickup You Can Move by Pushing on It (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Maybe it's because there are no truly new ideas, but many of the latest automotive patents are very narrowly focused on specific, niche use cases. In the case of a patent recently granted to Ford, it's not the suggested application that most interests us. "Systems and methods for moving a vehicle using externally mounted HMI" describes a way to move a pickup truck a little bit at a time to do things like unload landscaping materials—a thing people definitely do from time to time. It's the contro

    Toyota Patent Envisions a Car That Captures What You Notice While Driving (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    By now drivers should know that using a handheld device to take a picture while behind the wheel is unsafe, and in many jurisdictions it’s illegal—for good and obvious reasons. But there are still things we see while on the road that we’d like to document for later or learn more about. A recent Toyota patent application has a potential solution: a car that uses its various cameras to photograph what the driver is looking at. U.S. patent application 2026/0261754 A1, Systems and Methods for Captur

    Tesla Reinvents the Steering Wheel Once Again with Hidden Cybercab Joystick Controls (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    If you’re anything like me, you’ve been wondering how Tesla’s Cybercab, which is truly devoid of physical driving controls, gets moved around when it’s off duty or something goes terribly wrong. Courtesy of a user on X, another Elon Musk property, we have the answer: There’s a hidden screen with a joystick-like controller for steering, acceleration, and reversing. Apparently, the special screen wasn’t so hidden when this rider boarded a Cybercab in Austin, Texas. While the controls were visible
