Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich., introduced a bill this week aimed at preventing Chinese vehicles from going on sale in America. “I will lay down on the border to keep Chinese vehicles from entering the U.S. market,” Slotkin said in a statement. The bill is her first in the Senate. Called the Connected Vehicle National Security Review Act, it seeks to establish a “national security review process” for Chinese-made connected cars and parts manufactured…

As they have with opinion pieces the past several weeks, Times online readers had the option to click on a button labeled “Insights,” which judged the column politically as “center-left.” Then it offers an AI-generated synopsis — a…

Suppose there’s such a thing as the iPhone of cars. If that exists at all, it’s assuredly the Tesla Model Y. Tesla’s midsize electric crossover has earned its stripes as the world’s best-selling electric vehicle (and best-selling single model of car, period) for its unassailable combination of range, power, tech features, price and practicality. But right as an updated Model Y makes its debut, a lot of people have their reasons for wanting to move on from Tesla. That also coincides with a new crop of highly competitive EVs from other brands that just weren’t in the same class as Tesla…
Apple’s long-anticipated entry into the foldable smartphone market is reportedly set for the latter half of next year, with the company selecting Samsung Display as the exclusive supplier for the device’s OLED panels, reported 9To5mac.
