By The Watt Car Staff — Dec. 8, 2022
Is the future of farming both electric and autonomous? We take a look. We also check out hinted specs regarding the Tesla Cyertruck that could be an EV pickup truck game changer. We then discuss the Mercedes-Benz eSprinter leading the way, GM building out questionable EV charging infrastructure, the much-rumored Apple Car, Ford dealers going electric, and more.
