Reliability and longevity may once have been among the most common reasons for not owning an electric vehicle. But a new study claims that battery-powered electric vehicles are now equally reliable – and can run for longer – than conventional vehicles.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk says the company will launch a fleet of autonomous vehicles that will operate as taxis with no driver behind the wheel in Austin, Texas, in June. He previously promised self-driving cabs by 2020, so maybe don't hold your breath.

Snuuzu – sounds like a creature from the Dr. Seuss universe. In reality, it's a better breed of inflatable foam mattress for the Tesla Model Y and 3. The multilayer mattress levels out the vehicle and creates a cushy surface for two people.

New Zealand startup Teraglide presents what might be both the simplest and most efficient Tesla Model Y camping solution yet. Its expandable sleeper platform stows behind the rear seats during the ride and expands into a proper bed upon arrival.

Elon Musk has Xeeted out a video of Tesla's Optimus humanoid robot folding a t-shirt – which would be great, but then followed up with a second Xeet clarifying that the video is far less impressive than it looks – after being called out by observers.

Tesla has completely overhauled its humanoid robot. The Optimus Gen 2 is 10 kg (22 lb) lighter, 30% faster, a lot smoother and more capable, and it looks much more human in the way it moves. It's also got new hands and feet, and some of Elon's style.
