I have high hopes for the electrification of heavy duty vehicles-we’re already seeing significant demand destruction in China for diesel. The beauty of HD vehicles is that they’re a spreadsheet decision, so once TCO is proven, they’ll take off. #StopBurningStuff

There is not a single European car manufacturer in sight here when it comes to electric cars; they only appear on the lists of the declining share of vehicles with combustion engines that are still being sold.
Who sells what in Uruguay? 🇺🇾 Brands and models of new cars.
BEV, Jan–Oct 2026: BYD leads at 30%, then Geely 14%, Dongfeng 12%, GAC 10%. The Yuan Pro is the top model, the Seagull second.
October: BYD 31%, Geely 15%, GAC 9%. Three of the top four models were BYDs: Yuan Pro, E2 and Seagull.

Battery electric vehicles just outsold all combustion vehicles combined in Belgium for the first time.
In September 2026, battery electric vehicles made up 50.9% of all new cars on the road, also crossing the 50% threshold for the first time.

Good morning with good news: The rise of EVs & collapse of ICE autos stuns in world's largest auto market!
China's ICE collapsed from 94.2% of September 2020 sales to 33% in 9/2026!
EVs skyrocketed from 5.8% of sales in 9/2020 to 67% in 9/2026.
Battery-only EVs were 47.3%.
