Kids have stolen around 200 vehicles this year already. Earlier this year, Mazda was named the best car brand of 2021, but we doubt that New Zealand citizens will feel quite so good about the Japanese automaker a year from now. See, the Australasian country, specifically the province of Taranaki, has been going through a strange phenomenon: the theft of older Mazda cars. Apparently, there's some sort of social media challenge that is going viral, and this is causing teenagers to film themselves stealing cars that are easy to break into. Most of the cars being targeted are small Mazda runabout...

Is anyone really surprised? For years, Elon Musk has made bold claims about how far Tesla is to attaining Level 5 autonomy in its cars. In July last year, he said that Tesla was "very close" to doing just that, a claim that was quickly dismissed by industry experts. With this in mind, Tesla's latest announcement comes as little surprise.

According to sources familiar with the matter who tipped off Electrek, the all-electric automaker has already reached production capacity for the second quarter despite the fact that there are still two months remaining in the business period. Until now, it was expected both the heavily updated Tesla Model S and Model X would experience production bottlenecks following a previous delay. That's still apparently happening. But the report indicates both the Model 3 and Model Y ar...

Tesla Dr. Vazquez has been organizing pop-up clinics across the city focusing on getting younger people to get the job, and the doctor's train of thought is that a brand new Tesla should incentivize people enough to visit one of the clinics. In order to enter the raffle, you must have both shots. Then you'll get a ticket. You come in with a parent, you get the shot, you get a ticket, bring a kid, they get a ticket and the odds go up. "We have to try whatever we can because hesitancy is really bad," said Vazquez. The doctor is concerned about low turnouts and skepticism around the vaccine ...
