But despite leading the world in EV manufacturering volume – or perhaps because of it – the company has also developed quite an interesting lineup of electric bicycles. On display at Eurobike 2026 was the company’s new full-suspension commuter e-bike, the Yadea Como.

Tesla delivered 480,126 vehicles in the second quarter of 2026, up 25% from the same quarter a year ago and roughly 74,000 vehicles above Wall Street’s consensus estimate.

But with that experience, including riding hundreds of e-bike models and countless thousands upon thousands of miles on electric bikes around the world, I can’t help but feel that we’ve lost sight of the bigger picture.

A growing number of Tesla Cybertruck owners are losing the ability to charge at home due to failures of the truck’s Power Conversion System (PCS), the unit that handles AC charging and steps the high-voltage pack down to the 48-volt system.

Tesla is aware of the problem and is quietly replacing the part case-by-case, but it has not issued a recall, and owners are waiting weeks for replacement units they can’t source.

Finding places to deploy new solar panels is often just as challenging as the construction project itself – with productive farmland, open parking lots, and rooftops all offering their own sets of pros and cons, but a recent pilot project suggests that thousands of acres of viable, low-cost land have been hiding in plain sight all along: the space between railroad tracks.

Tesla has hired a 17-year Intel manufacturing veteran, Gary Jiang, to serve as “Director, Terafab,” the first named leadership hire tied to the automaker’s ambitious Austin chip fab project.

The executive, who started at Tesla this month, most recently ran tool installation and ramp for Intel’s cutting-edge 18A process — exactly the experience Tesla lacks in-house.
