1. EV APP OF THE WEEK: CHARGE SAINT
Have you just tried to use an electric vehicle charge point, but found that it has been blocked by a petrol or diesel car (ICEd), or by another EV that isn’t plugged in? Charge Saint has been designed to help you. Our app provides easy-to-follow instructions that let you report EV charging bay misuse with as little as one photograph.
2. EV NEWS: EV POWERED
Plug-in power: electric and hybrid cars outsell petrol for the first time as Chinese brands grab one in seven UK sales. Electric and plug-in hybrid cars have overtaken petrol-only sales in the UK for the first time, as falling EV prices and record pump costs reshape the market and Chinese brands claim one in seven new car sales.
3. EV TIP: LOOK AFTER PUBLIC CHARGING POINTS
Treat public charging infrastructure with just as much care and respect as you would your own charging solutions at home. That will keep it in optimal working order to provide fast and flawless charging for everyone.
4. EV CHARGE POINT: OPEN CHARGE MAP
Open Charge Map is a non-commercial, non-profit, electric vehicle data service hosted and supported by a community of businesses, charities, developers and interested parties around the world.

5. EV REVIEW: CAR & DRIVER
Alfa Romeo Stelvio
The Alfa Romeo Stelvio is the SUV counterpart to the Italian brand's Giulia sports sedan. All 2026 Stelvios are powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder engine making a hearty 280 horsepower, and all-wheel drive is standard. The Stelvio is sportier than the compact luxury SUV norm, as you'd expect from an Alfa Romeo.
BLOG VERSION EXTRA
6. EV PODCAST: INSIDE EVS
The Slate EV truck FINALLY has an official price tag: $24,950 before destination fees, making it America’s cheapest EV and its most affordable pickup. But can this newcomer actually survive and compete in the brutal electric truck market? In this episode of the Plugged-In Podcast, Tim and Suvrat break down all the massive news surrounding Slate this week. They discuss whether its range, 205 miles, is enough for 2026. And they explain Slate’s new battery strategy (hello, LFP!) Plus, Tim actually got to see the truck in person and take a ride in it! He shares his first impressions on the interior, and whether the driving experience matches the hype.
Until next time. Have a fantastic week!
