The company sprang into the spotlight in the late 2010s with the boxy B1 and B2 electric pickup and SUV, but neither model went into production.

However, the business never took off, and Bollinger found itself…...

9+ hour, 46+ min ago (456+ words) Why do I say it was superior to other forms of personal urban transportation? Well, it was quiet and easy to drive and operate in an age when combustion cars were noisy and smelly and you had to know how to shift gears manually. They also needed to be crank-started, which wasn't only difficult but also potentially dangerous. EVs, even ones built over a century ago, had the same advantages of modern electric cars except for today's cars' ridiculous horsepower and acceleration figures that put them way ahead of any combustion car in a straight line. Electric city runabouts like the Milburn didn't even have a steering wheel, and you operated it using a couple of tillers instead. That may sound odd, but once you understand what everything does, it's actually pretty simple. One tiller controls the speed and the…...

Electrek asked two experts for smart winter EV driving advice. This is what Richard Reina, product training director at CARiD.com, and Casey Donahue, CEO of Optiwatt, a residential managed charging platform in North America, had to say. Park in a garage if possible. "It's always best practice in the winter to park your EV in a garage. Even an unheated garage provides some protection from the cold. A temperature difference of even a few degrees means that the battery of your EV can hold its charge longer. EV batteries lose some range with every degree drop in temperature." " Richard…...
