Ford Motor on Tuesday unveiled its first all-new electric vehicle exclusively for the European market and said it plans to leverage the well-known Explorer nameplate to gain traction. The EV crossover is part of Ford's plans to transition its European lineup to be entirely electric by 2030. Other than the Explorer name and some design attributes, the new vehicle shares little to nothing with the gas-powered SUV in the U.S., or a plug-in hybrid version that's currently available in Europe.

"The challenge for Ford and for everybody else is trying to figure out how to provide these kinds of mobility services and actually build a viable, self-sustaining business out of it while keeping the cost of the service affordable for people using the services," said Sam Abuelsamid, principal research analyst at Guidehouse Insights. "They're still struggling. Everybody is still struggling with that part of it." Ford has scaled back its ambitions and is focusing on technology that can make money in the near term.

Manufacturers and operators of electric vehicle chargers in the United States are bracing for a slowdown in production and deployment as they scramble to comply with "Made in America" terms of a $7.5 billion federal program meant to accelerate the industry.

BYD has reduced shifts at two auto assembly plants in China, people with knowledge of the matter told Reuters, in a sign of how weaker demand in the world's largest auto market is affecting its best-selling electric vehicle brand. BYD, which outsells Tesla in China, asked some of the workers at its Xian plant, its biggest manufacturing hub, to work only four days a week in a factory running two eight-hour shifts per day, according to three people and an internal memo sent earlier this month and reviewed by Reuters.

Baidu Inc. surged more than 14% Friday after brokerages including Citigroup tested the company's just-unveiled ChatGPT-like service and granted it their preliminary approval.

Chinese tech companies have joined the global rush to develop rival software, with Alibaba and JD.com announcing similar projects. But Baidu's Ernie Bot, unveiled at a press event in Beijing on Thursday, fell short of expectations, with the company's co-founder and chief executive, Robin Li, showing only a prerecorded demonstration of the software's capabilities, rather than a live interaction.

On Thursday, Baidu CEO Robin Li gave a one-hour presentation on Ernie that only offered a small glimpse into the chatbot. The jury is still out on what Ernie can do and how it actually works. For now, Ernie is only available for testing through invitation and others need to get on a waitlist. TechCrunch hasn't tried it yet, so it's unfair to draw any conclusions about Ernie's capability.
