The publication
Reference sources
We do not write in a vacuum. These are the publications and the people we follow to keep up with the electric car: who we read, who we listen to and why we trust them.
Our approach
Transparency about what we read. To write about electric cars we rely on sources we know and check against each other. This page sets out who we follow regularly.
A publication or a person is listed here when we genuinely consult them and they bring real judgement: honest analysis, data explained well, or first-hand experience with the vehicles. This is not a link exchange or a list of friends.
Following someone does not mean always agreeing with them. What we value is a useful, well-argued perspective, even when we reach different conclusions.
Press and media
Publications and creators specialising in mobility and electric cars that we follow to keep up with launches, tests and market analysis.
