1. Tesla delivered a record 497,099 electric vehicles in Q3 2022, marking a 29% increase from the previous quarter and a 7% rise year-over-year. Other automakers like Ford Motor, General Motors, Hyundai, and Rivian also reported record EV sales during this period.

2. The expiration of the $7,500 federal tax credit for electric vehicles has raised questions about how automakers will manage potential slowdowns in sales and inventory management in the post-tax credit era. Some companies have already adjusted their 2025 guidance downward.

3. The U.S. Department of Energy canceled 321 clean energy projects, with California suffering a loss of $2.2 billion in grants. This move could indicate a less reliable partnership between the government and businesses, particularly startups.
