After killing the Volt in 2019, now PHEV powertrains are back on the menu.

Most of the time the motor charges the battery, but sometimes it's more efficient to let the motor send power to the front wheels instead. (credit: General Motors)
In 2020, General Motors went all-in on its Ultium battery platform and battery-electric vehicles to meet future energy and pollution regulations. By that time, it had already killed the Chevrolet Volt and its highly efficient plug-in hybrid powertrain. Now, it's time to bring back the PHEV, according to GM CEO Mary Barra.
"Our forward plan includes bringing our plug-in hybrid technology to select vehicles in North America," Barra said during a call on Tuesday morning to announce GM's financial results for Q4 2023.
Despite US EV adoption growing by about 50 percent year over year in 2023, some analysts and automotive dealership groups have complained that BEVs are too difficult to sell. In November, this culminated in an open letter from several auto dealer groups to President Joe Biden, calling on him to slow down new fuel efficiency regulations that would require automakers to sell about four times as many BEVs to offset the emissions created by their internal combustion engine powertrains.

Billionaire Elon Musk posted on social media late Monday that his brain-computer interface company, Neuralink, implanted an experimental device into the brain of a human for the first time Sunday.
According to Musk's posts, which appeared on the platform formerly known as Twitter, the recipient is "recovering well," and the results in the first 24 hours show "promising neuron spike detection." Neuralink implanted the person with a device called Telepathy, which is intended to allow users to control devices, such as phones and computers, only by thinking.
The implantation comes around eight months after the company announced that the Food and Drug Administration had finally granted a long-sought approval to begin its first human trial. Recruitment for the trial began in September. Musk had claimed to be nearing trials starting as early as 2020, but the FDA reportedly denied approval in 2022, citing a list of dozens of "deficiencies" and safety concerns that Neuralink had yet to address.
