NISSAN SHOCKS WITH 1341 HP ELECTRIC GT-R ⚡️

Hey there, fellow humans who also definitely can't transform into cars.

Let's talk about Nissan's new Hyper-Force concept.

It's the automotive equivalent of that kid in class who says:

"I'm not trying to be a Transformer, but if I were, I'd be Megatron."

Nissan insists this isn't the new GT-R, but come on.

It's got the GT-R's swagger with more edges than a geometry textbook.

This electric beast boasts a whopping 1,341 horsepower with a battery that's more solid than my last relationship.

It also charges faster than I can finish a pizza and weighs less than my self-esteem on a bad day.

On its flanks, it's bragging about its “1000kW, ASSB, ADVANCED E-4ORCE” in a font size visible from space.

While it looks sharp enough to slice through air like a ninja, this car is about as production-ready as I am for adulthood. Not very.

It's got a carbon-fiber body that screams "I'm a jet fighter in a past life," and mood lighting that changes with its driving modes because... You know. Cars have feelings too.

Inside, it’s like NASA's control center with displays for everything from tire temp to whether your left blinker is indeed blinking.

And it’s got something called a “Plasma Actuator".

Which sounds like something straight out of Star Trek, but it's just Nissan being fancy about air flow.

Nissan's dropping this "not-a-GT-R" to celebrate their 90th birthday with a bang.

They're being all hush-hush about when you can get one too.

But whispers say 2028 might be the year we see these solid-state batteries hit the streets.

TESLA TO DELIVER ONLY 10 CYBERTRUCKS 🛻

So, Tesla's pulling a classic move.

The ol’ "reverse-hype" delivery.

What's that you ask?

Well, they're delivering a whopping 10 Cybertrucks at their latest extravaganza.

Yeah, that's not a typo.

Ten.

It's like throwing a birthday party and only inviting the people who live in your house.

They're calling it an "exclusive event," which is a fancy way of saying, "We made more doughnuts than cars."

But hey, it's Tesla. They make up for quantity with, well… hype.

And for those lucky few, it's basically Christmas morning.

Stay tuned, maybe next year they'll go wild and deliver 11.

UBER FAILED TO HELP CITIES GO GREEN - WILL ROBOTAXIS TOO? 🌳

Alright, picture this.

It's Earth Day. And this company called Cruise is like:

"Hey world, we've got this climate change thing in the bag with our nifty driverless cabs!"

Their buddy Waymo nods along. Agreeing that their zero-emission rides are the bees' knees for city folks trying to go green.

Meanwhile, the California bigwigs are giving Cruise the stink eye. Pulling Cruise's permit over all the safety oopsies.

But here's the kicker.

While these robot cabs are zooming around looking all futuristic and stuff... they might be playing dress-up.

Because, guess what?

They're pretty much the same as that old ride you call with your phone. You know, Uber? Lyft?

Just without someone in the driver's seat to awkwardly chat with.

Now, these companies are old pals with the ride-calling apps. They're like, "Hey, remember when we said sharing a car would save the planet? Good times, good times..."

But studies are showing that instead of cutting down on cars, these rides might be adding more to the road. Whoops.

But at least they're trying to switch to electric, right?

Well… it's not just about driving electric; it's about driving less. Period.

Despite claiming they'll save the world one ride at a time, we gotta ask:

Are they really the royal flush or just bluffing with a pair of twos?

Only time will tell. But for now, let's keep it real and remember that sometimes, the best ride is no ride.
