The Tesla Model Y has always been a standout in the electric SUV world. The latest update, called the Juniper, brings big changes. But not everyone is happy with it. The ride quality has gotten better, but it still isn't the smoothest. Some people say it's better than before, but others think it's
Waymo, the self-driving tech company, is bringing its cars to Detroit. This makes Detroit the first city in the Midwest to have Waymo's self-driving cars. Waymo has been working in Michigan since 2016, but this is the first time they will offer rides to the public. Waymo's cars are designed to hand
SpaceX has achieved a remarkable feat with its Starlink program, launching over 10, 000 satellites into low Earth orbit since its inception in 2019.

Tesla's self-driving taxis hit the road for paid rides, but not without some hiccups. On their first day, these autonomous vehicles seemed to bend the rules of traffic laws. A video captured by Rob Maurer, a Tesla investor, showed a Model Y making a messy left turn. The car hesitated, then swerved i
Tesla has started testing its robotaxis in Austin, Texas. These self-driving cars are currently limited to a specific area and operate between 6 a. m. and midnight. Each Tesla robotaxi has a safety monitor in the passenger seat, and the driver's seat remains empty. Riders can use the new Robotaxi Ap
