Mazda Iconic SP Concept, 2023. A prototype sports coupé powered by a 2-rotor rotary EV system that can run on hydrogen but also has an all-electric mode. The combined output of the hybrid powertrain is 365hp and it can also be used as a backup power source and supply a family with enough electricity for more than a week. Presented at the Japan Mobility Show, the high output generated by the two-rotor rotary EV system and the weight distribution of around 50:50 are said to "achieve excellent driving performance" but no word of when we might be able to buy one.

do not copy this plot. i’m perfectly fine with inspirations but give creds. if this plot his stolen in any way, the post will be taken down and you will be blocked.
𝐃𝐀𝐊𝐎𝐓𝐀𝐒 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐒 ✉️🖇️;; being on c.ai just gave me this idea. ya probably missed my smut so im back at it. here’s choso for everybody that asked (more of him coming up!) hope ya enjoyyyyy reblog to support meeeee and if you want more :D and merry christmas eve!!
another note: i was listening to “in for it” by tory lanez when writing this…i think it’s perfect. i was also listening to “from the start” by laufey…that inspired the plot also. also the (?) means that i listed the warning just in case it happens and i may change my mind mid story so still be cautious! (putting that in for my future stories) (some aspects inspired by: @chososdiscordkitten)
Tumblr media
choso was lying on his bed and he was holding his phone. he was now looking over at his text messages and he saw that his “friend” was now texting him. that “friend” was you. he sighed softly and he put his phone down and let his hand travel down to between his legs.
he was already rubbing himself lightly ans slowly. he started to breathe in and out slowly. his body would become hot as he was thinking of you and how he wanted to have you back in his presence.
you and choso were really close. you met through his kid brother, yuji. the younger assumed that choso should try to go out and find himself some acquaintances to keep him occupied. it was also the right thing to do, considering that curses weren’t really accepted by society and he was a hybrid.
you both hit it off pretty quickly. you thought he was funny because of his awkwardness and tendency to get flustered every time you compliment him. he doesn’t hear those very often.
he had been thinking about all the different things he could say to you and he was just staring at your message with his thoughts swirling in his head like a storm. he also began to think of the possibility of you breaking his heart and the fact that you were probably talking to some other guy. you probably liked him better. he began thinking of how he can stop it before it starts. so you never leave him.
his fingers started to stroke his erection in a consistent rhythm and he was letting his thoughts takeover. he was imagining you with him and imagining you in a vulnerable position, wanting him and needing him
his strokes became faster and his breathing became more erratic, his body was starting to tense up as he couldn’t help but imagine you in every position. he let his mind become intoxicated by his lust and this sensation of losing control.
he was nearing the point of no return, he was taking heavy breaths and his body was tensing and relaxing in a consistent rhythm. he started to speak aloud and he would moan softly and he whispered your name under his breath, hoping no one can hear him.
he could feel himself getting close and his breathing was becoming faster and his voice now sounded like a growl as he let your name slip through his lips repeatedly. his breath was now hot and his body was tensing up and his fingers and fists were now clenching tightly as the sensation grew inside of him.
right before he could finish, he heard a knock on his door. choso sucked his teeth and covered himself with his blanket, slightly frustrated that he couldn’t completely satisfy himself without being interrupted. he would quickly try to slow his breathing before answering the door.
the door opens and yuji is standing there with an eager smile, “hey, did you wanna come to the mall with me and my friends later? i know it’s hot as hell out since it’s summer but we shouldn’t be inside all day.”
choso couldn’t see himself but he knew he was flustered and his chest was still moving up and down a bit quickly. it made yuji slightly suspicious.
“you sound outta breath, are you okay?”
“no—i mean, yes, i’m fine.” choso swallowed, running a hand through his hair. at this moment, choso didn’t have his hair up in his twintails like he normally did…part of that reason was because you mentioned that you liked him with his hair down and that he should wear that style a bit more often. it was also because he takes the rubber bands out of his hair after being out all day and wearing them as bracelets until the next time he had to leave the house.
“right,” yuji chuckled, “i’ll let you know when later if i’m still going.” the pink haired boy began to walk out of choso’s room but he quickly stopped him before the door closed.
“yeah?”
“is…you know who…gonna be there?” choso asked. the question alone made yuji smirk and lean against the doorframe in a goofy manner. it wouldn’t be a surprise if he picked this kind of stuff up from gojo.
“oh, yeah. she’ll be there.” yuji smiled. that’s when choso felt like he had to actually look like something today. he wanted to impress you. he wanted you to compliment him again. he wanted you to praise him. to give him the satisfaction that he had been craving from you for so long.
when yuji left the room, choso looked at his phone, reading the time. it was still a bit early in the morning. ‘9:15 AM’ the clock read. he’d glance down a the wallpaper on his phone, which was you and yuji smiling while eating some ice cream.
‘she’s so pretty…’ he thought. it felt like you were looking directly at him, the longer he stared at the photo, clearly hypnotized by your eyes and your smile. he needed you more than ever and he was gonna make it happen sooner or later.
choso got up and made his way to the bathroom to shower and clean the pre cum off of him. after he was done with his hygiene, he’d put his hair up in his usual twintails then he would put on something simple. a tan oversized sweater with a pair of joggers. he was a simple man and going out in a huge white robe and a gi wasn’t very ideal for the heat that was surging through the city.
a sweater and some joggers weren’t very ideal for this weather either but choso seemed to be fitting in very well…humans did the same thing. some of them.
when it was time to head out with yuji to go to the mall, choso was fully prepared to see you. the male would spray a few squirts of cologne on himself, fix his hair, and he even held out on putting on that eyeshadow that made him look like he didn’t get any ounce of sleep at all.
choso remembered you talking about spider lilies on your story. they came in beautiful colors that looked like they came from a fantasy world and you were in love with them. they were extremely rare and they had a deep meaning behind them.
though, he was aware that they were extremely rare, he was able to get his hands on them after searching around for a while. he found white and red spider lilies. he thought they were a pretty mix of colors. he was even lucky to get one that was white and faded into the usual deep red color like a gradient.
“who are those for?” yuji teased as he peered over at the four spider lilies that choso was carrying with him. the older male’s cheeks flushed a red color, hesitant on answering the question. he couldn’t lie to his brother so he decided to tell the partial truth.
“they’re a home decoration. they aren’t particularly for anyone. they’re for whoever wants them.” the male answered. yuji lifted an eyebrow. he thought it was a bit odd to buy flowers and carry them around until someone asked for them…but choso was still learning so yuji couldn’t blame him for being backwards.
when the two arrived at the mall, choso could see you sitting with nobara and megumi. megumi was spacing out, wandering around the area in circles while you and kugisaki were bumbling about what stores you were going to.
your head suddenly looks up, noticing choso and yuji standing a good distance away, pretty close to the entrance. when you put on a friendly smile and waved in their direction, he was pretty sure you were waving at him.
yuji and choso advance towards you and your other two friends and begin your plans for the day. plans like relaxing at the park or getting some sushi and udon came up. megumi remarking that yuji might stick one or sukuna’s fingers in his meal and call it a secret recipe.
while everyone talked, you noticed that choso was disassociated as usual, holding onto the spider lilies that he bought for you and zoning out.
“hey, how’d you get these?” you asked. choso’s heart skipped a beat when he felt your hand lightly brush against his when you attempted to touch the spider lilies. “they’re so rare.” you added.
“oh—uh…yeah.” choso mumbled. there was a silence. you knew choso was a quiet guy, so you didn’t force him to speak any more than he already had. you reach up and touch the flowers and your smile grows a bit.
“can i?” you begin. choso doesn’t hesitate to hand you the trio of lilies. you weren’t really expecting him to give you all of them since you only wanted to hold one of them. your eyes light up at the rare white one that faded into red. it caught your eye quicker than the regular red and white ones that were in that set of spider lilies.
choso fixed his lips to say something but yuji had come over to the two, “hey, you guys ready?”
of course, you were over the moon because you couldn’t wait to go shopping and go to your favorite places with nobara. you nod and trotted off, already knowing where you were going for your first store.
‘she didn’t give the flowers back…’ choso was in awe when you walked away, holding your favorite species of flowers in your hands. he felt the heat rising in his cheeks again. he’d take the time to take a mental image of you before smiling to himself.
it might’ve been the one in few times he’s actually smiled.
choso would follow yuji and megumi around, hoping that he’d end up running into you again while they circled around the building. instead of looking at things to buy, his thoughts were entirely filled with you.
he fantasized about what you say to him when it was time to confess. how it would feel to kiss you just one time. to sit in a park by all the cherry blossom trees and just have a long conversation about whatever came to mind.
he loved you but you weren’t seeing that. it was frustrating him. then it hit him…you probably did like someone else that wasn’t him. the thought made his chest hurt but he pushed those feelings down because he didn’t want to have a mental breakdown in public. not again.
when the five of you went out to get food after enjoying some time at the mall, choso made sure to sit beside you at the table but also near yuji so nothing was made terribly obvious. he listened to you ramble on about the stuff you bought from the mall. new clothes, a set of undergarments with a robe, and a vase for the spider lilies that you ended up getting from choso.
each time your hand accidentally brushed up against his hand or his arm, he couldn’t help but blush. he’d shove food into his mouth to force himself from smiling when you spoke to him.
this was regular to him. he was more than confident that you were in love with him when you flashed a warm smile at him and asked him for his input on each topic that bounced around the table.
his heart raced each time he fixed his lips to speak, mortified that he’d embarrass himself in front of you but he spoke smoothly and clearer than ever in his low adverb voice. currently, the conversation was on how yuji believed that choso was a terrible teacher. a moment that sent choso into an embarrassed spiral the first time it happened.
“i don’t think you’re a bad teacher,” you assure him, “there’s just things you need to learn and there’s …a million things yuji needs to learn. you both need each other’s support.”
your words meant everything to him and it also gave him a new form of confidence. it wasn’t that he really lacked confidence. he was just too stuck up in his own world to care about anything else.
at the end of your night, unknowingly making choso crave you even more as he continues life with his unrequited love, choso walks with you to the bus stop.
“oh, i meant to say thanks for the flowers. i think it’s a coincidence that you bought them, considering they’re rare…and they’re my favorite.” you say.
“oh…i didn’t know that.” choso replied. he felt terrible for lying. he knew a lot about you. he knew what kind of music you liked, what your favorite movies and shows were. everything. but he didn’t want you to run off because of his tendency to be honest and he might end up saying the wrong thing.
“do you…have instagram?” choso suddenly asks you as he noticed the bus approaching. you don’t think anything of it and you give him your username while he gives you his. he wanted to smile when he felt your phone in his hands but he managed to keep his disassociated expression.
when the bus arrived, the vehicle hissed as its doors opened up so you can board. you looked back at choso and waved goodbye to him and gave him a quick hug before you got onto the bus.
you quickly waved to him again the moment the you sat down on the bus and choso would wave back and there a a subtle smile on his face. once the bus pulled off, his smile faded and he took a breath.
‘next time…i’ll take more direct actions…’

Do you mind telling us more about your fan kids?
Lemme try to rack my noggin here
Tumblr media
Naomi and Kyla! My blorbos my munchkins my half demon spawns
I don't have any new art of the girls BUT here's the most recent art of them I still have in my pocket
Naomi is a kaieve kid. Spawned from parasite/demon energy cross breeding (aka Eve and Kai'sa got it on real good one night and she appeared the next morning) Naomi (or Mimi for short) is a near spitting image of Evelynn, and the personality to go with it...
Taking well after Kai'sa Naomi is very passionate and outspoken with her interests and gets excited at new projects and learning opportunities. The other half from Evelynn is her dramatic flare on life and constantly making moves for success, a natural business woman and entrepreneur. Is often praised for by Eve for just the smallest things and she loves having her mom's constant attention
Raising Naomi was an odd case for her four moms. She wouldn't do much as a baby, just follow mommy Eve around mostly, or sticking close to her big sister. But she had the rare "demon baby" moments. She's a very strong hybrid who has void powers and demon instincts. It took a full void suited Kai'sa and demon shade mode Evelynn to calm her down from a tantrum. Later on Naomi grew a strong attachment to Ahri's fox form in her kid years, and often turned to momma Ahri for comfort
Some facts about Naomi
- very artistic. Enjoys fashion and painting
- smooth singing voice with lots of range. Loves learning songs in different languages
- an exceptional dancer and her favorite is tango
- is described as a socialite, but keeps her friend circle small
- used to stare blankly at Evelynn as baby, later learned that's how she shows affection
Now for Kyla. She's the oldest and was carried by Ahri. Born from Evelynn's demon energy mixing with the magical power of love for her wife and boom! A happy lil accident :D Kyla is born some good years after kda has made some albums and built a flourishing legacy (I see them all in their late 30s- early 40s when Kyla is born) Eve, Ahri, Akali and Kai'sa smothered their bab with the upmost love and attention as she grew up.
Raised as a legacy to the kda house name, Kyla was exposed to a lot of musical creation at home and grew a particular fond for music production. Often sneaking into Akali's studio after being put down for bed to watch her momma make cool sounds and beats. It's there she learns to create her own tracks and grows to carry on the kda name in the music industry
Personality wise Kyla is very quiet and is selectively mute. Only speaking when at home and to close friends (and the rare interview). Picking up after Akali she's often found held up in her room creating music for hours on end, often getting dragged out by Kai'sa and her sister to get a taste of sunlight. She uses music as her outlet and a way to speak to people and express herself. If not in the studio she can be found curled up in her fox form under Ahri
Some facts about Kyla
- doesn't speak as many languages as Naomi and Kai'sa, but is fluent in sign language
- sneaks out at night to underground clubs to test tracks (the only ones who know are Evelynn and Akali)
- her and Naomi both form the new kda group
- despite her shy personality Kyla has a much different stage presence with more energy
- looks up to Seraphine as her idol
PHEW!! that's all I can remember from like 2 years ago? I'm definitely gonna give them some redesigns tho so these ones aren't that canon anymore. I remember making these girls as a joke like "hurhurhur what if they unexpectedly had kids and stumbled into a chaotic family lifestyle" then ended up really liking the kids I made. Small note tho, I don't see kda actually having kids at some point. Both personally and logically in their universe. These girls exist more in an au setting of kda expanding into a more familial territory

So, uh... this post was answering an ask, but then the saving glitched or something and now the post is in the drafts but it no longer has the ask in it, but the ask isn't in the inbox either. So I don't know if it vanished completely or if it will appear in this post upon posting. And perhaps more importantly, I don't know if the asker will get a notification when I hit post. I guess this is a good moment to ask you all to please avoid asking questions anonymously if possible, so I can reach out if need be (especially considering the months I tend to take to answer, har har).
Well, great, my quest to write a brief post is off to a great start. Oh, I know!
*ominous clattering sounds*
So, ever seen Speed? The movie, not the phenomenon. I haven't, but from what I heard, it's a movie where a bus driver finds out there's a bomb that will go off if they go slower than 50mph. I've gotta see it just to find out what prompted that, did a passenger get frustrated with how slow it- see?!?! I'm doing this again! But no more, thanks to this nifty device I've fitted, that will blow up if this post's word count reaches 2000 words. Yes, that's a pretty high bar, but you know, we tryna stay alive, like Wyclef Jean said. Wait, no, I don't think he ever actually says the song's title in the lyrics. But surely he mentioned its title at some point, right? I'm doing it again aren't I. What was the question anyway?
Tumblr media
Do I- Okay, let's not repeat the "do I have thoughts on that" line. Last time it didn't end well.
But yeah, of course! I wrote about the Corolla previously, and who could forget the first mass production hybrid car?
Tumblr media
Well, most of the people who drove one, probably - and likely even some that are currently involved in driving one. And, as I went over, I think that's to Toyota's credit.
Now, in my post about hybrid powertrains (definitely a recommended read to anyone who's giving a shit right now) I forewent one of the few important distinction between an F1 car's KERS system and my mom's Toyota - since the former can never run purely on electric power it's a mild hybrid, whereas Toyota's Hybrid Synergy Drive (HSD for friends) is a full hybrid system since it can. So essentially the reason her Toyota is not like an F1 Ferrari is that it's more capable. (And also it burns down less.) So the car could be using only the electric engine, or only the combustion engine, or both, or energy could be getting generated through regen braking or even by the engine(???) and I'm not even sure that's it. There's even a little animation you can toggle that shows you what the drivetrain is doing and what energy is going where. And I always thought that was a bit of a test-drive-only gimmick, not realizing that in my reaction lay proof of the system's brilliance: you don't ever really notice nor care what it's doing! Thanks to the smoothness of a very clever CVT made of planetary gears that I vaguely assume I understand, you barely ever feel any of those goings on. Aside from shifting into B when you need engine braking -even that a very smooth affair- all you ever experience is the variation in noise from the silence of EV mode to, should you ever be so unlucky as to encounter a road that points up...
(credit to @ggrtl1)
The HSD system now being in most of Toyota's range makes it easy to forget how it was a Prius exclusive for the longest time, and how starkly the Prius stood out when that was the case. But if we look back with that in mind, the Prius being an environmentally conscious choice that doesn't actually require you to have a clue about shit, and a car that almost actively dodges your attention, it's clear how it immediately became extremely popular… almost as much as it was maligned.
Car enthusiasts, as I already went over (oh sorry, I'd already linked this one), hated the Prius with unfathomable passion. I grew up in car meme circles and counting the jokes at the Prius' expense was akin to counting your breaths. To this day you can probably spot peeling "Prius repellent" stickers atop the exhaust pipes of the most insulting trucks of the Walmart lot. And really, I think there's more to why than what I talked about. For one, the Prius's architecture and marketing attracted and created drivers without much eagerness to get out of their own way, and by extension the cars behind them's. But really, people hated on Audi drivers tailgating and BMW drivers being seemingly unaware of the turn signal stalk's presence, and that never translated into cheering at pictures of M3s and RS4s engulfed in flames. There also was the idea of the Prius driver as someone eager to rub their environmental consciousness in your face - and I believe that gets closer to the point, but again, however much you can hate a driver, that doesn't really translate into hating the car with such memetic reliability that a key mechanic in my favorite gaming series ever involves finding pink Priuses and blowing them up.
It's something about the car itself. Or rather, what it represented.
I believe the Prius was the vegan of cars.
It was never just about what it did or how, but about how its existence implied that our way of life (in our case our acoustically, socially and environmentally obnoxious gas guzzlers) was bad, was wrong. It was an attack on how we rolled. And so we attacked back: "No, fuck YOU. You're nerdy, and uncool, and boring, and ugly. Go die." And really, it's interesting how those were the angles the Prius was attacked by - even though it was clearly never concerned with being cool or exciting to drive and, if I do say so myself, the Prius never looked that bad in the years when that hate developed.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I mean, even this interior is neat if you ask me!
Tumblr media
Really, I think the reason those angles were chosen goes beyond the car. Nerdy, uncool, boring, ugly. What image does that conjure up?
Tumblr media
Exactly.
And just like that emoji, those are comebacks you huck at someone who's getting in the way of your good time. But how did someone else's car get in the way of our good time? Simple: by highlighting the problems with our good time. Again, the vegan of cars. And just like them, this opposite faction was also seen as a threat. If this view wins, we feared, our vehicles for The Good Time will get banned or canceled or neutered beyond recognition. We were arguably living through the start of such events and they did get worse with time.
But still, our approach was misguided, handling serious environmental issues with the same maturity of children being reminded of their homework by their parents. The solution was not to try and boo the issue away, as though a relative handful of enthusiasts could drown out environmentalism, but to recognize that our smaller number and the masses' different priorities could have been assets: get out of this tunnel vision whereby everyone needs to have what you like and let others have a Prius; hell, encourage others to get a Prius, because the more people buy fuel efficient cars on their own accord, the less governments will feel the need to force them to do so with bans! Because bans? They SUCK. Not being able to use your car or go some place no matter how much you're willing to pay and how many hoops you're willing to jump through SUCKS. And it's unfair to everyone: the greener choice should be the better choice, because if not you're short changing people, and that betterness should be communicated well to the people, so they know they're not getting short changed. At which point you wouldn't need a ban anyway because the only people who wouldn't pick the greener thing of their own accord are us, the handful of weirdos who'll gladly stick with something worse for The Experience™, whose impact will be too small to be worth restricting everyone's freedom over.
We were too few to matter, but instead of using that as the asset it was we fought against that idea. And that's understandable: we all like for our opinion to be popular, we all like to push people to be more like us because we like the idea that it's a good thing to be the way we are. So it's tough to embrace the idea that the fewer people like us there are the better. And perhaps we were too proud to admit that our passion really is problematic at scale and thus have that conversation altogether. Or we just didn't feel like dealing with that problem. Again, kids not wanting to do homework.
But now that half of all Toyotas sold (in the U.S. at least, but that's always been the cultural trends dictator anyway) are hybrids, funnily enough, it all seems okay. I mean, whose vitriol is being spent on the Corolla Hybrid? And it's not because the Corolla name did get slapped onto enough different cars that eventually it landed onto something with some enthusiast cred...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
...because that never made enthusiasts hold the "normal" Corolla in any higher regard than 'boringly sensible, nondescript transportation only ever interesting as a way to justify any unwise sportscar purchase of a similar buy-in price' ("Can you believe I got this V10 twin turbo Audi RS6 for the price of a new Corolla?", usually said a month before the first night spent under a bridge). And even if it did, it would be all the more reason to curse the HSD powertrain for "ruining" it, or whatever. People don't hate on the RAV4 Hybrid, the Sienna Hybrid, the whatever Hybrid nowadays. (Or maybe they are and I'm just hanging around more mature people now, but I do feel like a cultural shift has gone on.)
Is it because hate struggles to spread itself too thin, especially across vehicles whose hybridness isn't their whole personality as the Prius's was? Maybe, but I doubt it looking at all the positive sentiment around the fifth gen Prius, surprising a glowup as it may have been.
(Y'ain't really fuck with me way back then girl
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
how 'bout now)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It could also be that a threat is often worse than the event itself, because focusing on a threat makes it feel like an all-encompassing hypothetical that must be avoided at all costs or how will we manage, but when we live through it it's just one of the many things going on in our lives, and we find out we manage just fine. Many cars we barely cared about to begin with are hybrid now, so what. Those seeking to avoid hybrid powertrains just... do that. Some cars are canceled, so we buy used or look elsewhere. That Prius was not a harbinger of doom, just a precursor of a trend that it didn't cause, and didn't really kill us all. But maybe it's the move that we're currently fearing will kill us all, electrification, that has not just shifted attention away from hybrids, but framed them more positively by comparison. But perhaps there's an even bigger, show-stealing enemy, doing what we feared hybrids would do and what we're fearing electrification will do: SUVification. Sure, people raged at things like the Honda NSX becoming a hybrid or the Mazda MX-5 announcing electrification, but travesties like the new "Capri" really make that rage look silly, as if we lost the focus of what was really vital, like i did with the word count oh no

The 2023 Lamborghini Equus was a Gas-Turbine EV Hybrid sold with only 600 models produced. It was designed to be the worlds fastest production EV, with a top speed of 270 mph. It was made to celebrate the history of Lamborghini, and show a push towards new technologies, like the Gas Turbines that Chrysler had been pioneering for the past 50 years, combined with electric motors. The car has a 0-60 time of 0.87 seconds in "Assurdo" Mode, translating to "Absurd" in English.

What are the Various Types of Electric Vehicles and How Do They Work?
Tumblr media
The automotive landscape is undergoing a monumental shift, fueled by technological advancements and a growing awareness of environmental concerns. At the forefront of this transformation are Electric Vehicles (EVs), heralding a cleaner and more sustainable era of transportation. In this in-depth exploration, we'll navigate through the intricacies of electric vehicles, dissecting their diverse types, unraveling their operational mechanisms, and glimpsing into their promising future.
Understanding Electric Vehicles
Electric Vehicles distinguish themselves by relying on electric motors powered by electricity stored in a battery. This departure from traditional internal combustion engines presents a promising solution to environmental challenges posed by conventional vehicles.
The Intricate Working of Electric Vehicles
Breaking down the workings of an Electric Vehicle reveals a symphony of components, from the crucial battery pack and controller to the electric motor and accelerator pedal. This orchestrated dance results in a clean, efficient, and eco-friendly mode of transportation.
Exploring the Diverse Electric Vehicle Types
Electric Vehicles come in various flavors, each catering to specific user needs:
Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV): The purest form of electric mobility, BEVs run solely on electricity, eliminating tailpipe emissions and contributing significantly to reducing air pollution. Examples include the Tesla Model 3 and Nissan Leaf.
Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV): Bridging the gap between traditional and electric vehicles, HEVs combine an internal combustion engine with an electric motor, enhancing fuel efficiency. Popular models include the Toyota Prius and Honda Insight.
Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV): Offering flexibility with electric and gasoline power, PHEVs can operate emission-free for shorter distances while providing extended range for longer journeys. The Chevrolet Volt and Ford Escape PHEV are notable examples.
Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV): Using hydrogen gas in a fuel cell stack, FCEVs emit only water vapor and heat as byproducts. Though in early commercial stages, models like the Toyota Mirai are pioneering this unique approach to electric mobility.
Future Prospects and Challenges of Electric Vehicles

Travel Smart: Exploring the Best Eco-Friendly Transportation Solutions in Urban Areas
In our fast-paced world, urban areas are buzzing with life, and getting around can sometimes feel overwhelming. As more people flock to cities, the demand for sustainable and eco-friendly transportation options is rising. In this article, we’ll explore the best eco-friendly transportation solutions that not only benefit our environment but also enhance our travel experience. Plus, we'll optimize the discussion for the keyword Tech Flix because technology plays a significant role in making these options accessible.
Tumblr media
Understanding Eco-Friendly Transportation
When we talk about eco-friendly transportation, we're referring to modes of travel that minimize harm to the environment. These solutions reduce carbon emissions, promote sustainability, and often enhance the overall travel experience. Just like swapping out a plastic bottle for a reusable one, choosing green transportation helps us make a positive impact. So, why should you consider eco-friendly options? It’s simple—by opting for sustainable travel, you not only help reduce pollution but also contribute to healthier urban spaces for everyone.
The Rise of Public Transit
Public transit has emerged as a frontrunner in eco-friendly transportation. Buses, trams, and subways can carry numerous passengers at once, reducing the number of cars on the road. It’s like a big pizza—when everyone shares a slice, there’s less waste! Many cities are investing in cleaner, more efficient public transit systems that run on renewable energy sources. For instance, electric buses are becoming increasingly common, making public transport an even greener option.
Biking: A Breath of Fresh Air
Biking is not just a fun way to get around; it’s also incredibly eco-friendly. Riding a bike produces zero emissions and can be a great workout! Imagine pedaling through a city park on a sunny day; it feels liberating and invigorating. Many urban areas have developed bike lanes and rental programs, making cycling a practical choice. Plus, biking can help you skip traffic jams—talk about a win-win!
Walking: The Original Eco-Transport
Let’s not forget the simplest form of transportation: walking! It’s the original eco-friendly mode of travel and doesn’t require any special equipment. Walking not only benefits the environment but also improves your health. Next time you have a short distance to cover, why not stroll instead? You’ll get some fresh air and maybe even discover a hidden gem in your city along the way.
Carpooling: Sharing is Caring
Carpooling is a great way to reduce the number of vehicles on the road. By sharing rides with friends or co-workers, you can cut down on emissions and save on gas. Think of it like a group of friends splitting the cost of a meal—it’s more affordable and better for the environment! With many apps available to help coordinate carpooling, it’s never been easier to share a ride.
Electric Vehicles: The Future is Now
Electric vehicles (EVs) are transforming the transportation landscape. They produce no tailpipe emissions and can be charged using renewable energy sources. It’s like driving a futuristic car that not only gets you from point A to point B but also contributes to a cleaner planet.

🚨It's Biblical 💥👀 They're after your bloodline!
If you understand how satan operates, you'd have more clarity on why we are experiencing what we are now. It's a cycle.
The nephilim didn't want you to know their modes of operation. Satan's plan from the beginning was to manipulate God's beloved creation. Starting with Eve. The Nephilim influenced man to sin & do what was improper.
In Genesis 6: Nephilim or FALLEN ONES were on the earth in those days (conjunction), and the Sons of God went into the daughters of men. 3 parties
Nephilim influenced men to create the hybrid race (Satan's plan). Angels can not pro-create. They don't have those body parts. They were meant to be servants. The nephilim were chained (Jude 6 & 2 Peter 2)
God obviously knew that satan was trying to manipulate the bloodlines. In Gen 3:15, God tells the serpent that woman's seed (Jesus) would destroy him. So satan goes to try & manipulate.
There were millions of people on the earth before the flood. Only 8 made it. However, Ham (Noah's son) had a wife who was a Hittite. She came from Cain's bloodline. The race of hybrids survived through his wife, producing "giants."
Goliath was not a nephilim. He was a hybrid. It was up to David & his men to wipe out the giants. However, the bloodline remained. Six fingers, six toes. Many still have this today.
Satan wanted to corrupt Jesus' bloodline. When Jesus would walk through the streets, they said heal us son of David. They recognized God's promise and the precious blood of Jesus. The genealogy.
A spotted lamb was genetically improper for sacrifice. Satan knew that if Jesus' bloodline was improper, the sacrifice for us would be improper. He got beat. This is why the precious blood of Jesus is so important. It's pure. It has POWER.
In movies, there's always a bit of truth. We know satan controls hollywood, but they twist it. There are many movies & shows that tell the story about genetic manipulation. One recent example is the show "Sweet Tooth." That hybrids are the cure and the way to save from sickness.
They make it look sweet and innocent, but there's always a twist. Just like satan and his minions do by twisting scripture. They want you to believe that Jesus is man made, and the way of the world is the way to go. They always want to fully corrupt your DNA.
God's signature is embedded in your DNA. They want to corrupt this. It's that simple. If they can make you not human through manipulation, then they can have you.
Whether you followed Q's posts or not, they understand this as well. Luciferase is a bioluminescent in the vaccines. It can be tracked, and more. Think about that. Satan is still trying.
Protect your DNA. The enemy will never stop trying. It has ALWAYS been about your bloodlines. The enemy has infiltrated everywhere in your government, entertainment, etc. If someone is recognizing this, then you should hold them close. Many will be fooled.
I've always looked at the vaccines as a test run for when the mark of the beast is introduced. "For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."
Recognize that this battle we live in is spiritual. We do not wrestle against flesh and blood but by the powers and principalities of darkness. The unseen is way more real than the seen. The enemy's greatest accomplishment is getting people to believe he doesn't exist.
Matthew 24:37-39 "But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be."
Way more to all of this, but I will end it here.

what is electric vehicle (EV)| benefits| history |future : all that you need to know
in todays blog we will discuss about What is an electric vehicle (EV), History of the electric vehicle (EV), How the vehicle business is shifting, myths about electric vehicles (EVs), benefits of electric vehicle (EV).
What is an electric vehicle (EV)?
As the name implies, an electric vehicle (EV) is a vehicle that provides traction through an electric motor that draws electricity from a battery and can be charged from external sources.
Electric vehicles (EVs) can be driven with the help of one or more than one fuel. Some are purely electricity, which stores the electricity as fuel in batteries, and some vehicles use hybrid mode, which means a vehicle that can be powered by electricity stored in the battery and by an internal combustion engine. This vehicle is known as a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (EV).
We will discuss all these types of vehicles and their infrastructures in this blog.
History of the electric vehicle (EV)
In the 17th and 18th centuries, steam-powered vehicles were first built.in 1672, it was built as a toy for the Kangxi emperor.
In 1886, the first gas-fuelled car received the first patent from the owner of the all-time famous cars in history, Karl Benz. This was the start of transportation using machines. Before that, we all know horses and ponies were used for transportation and traveling purposes.
But this was the start of conventional cars and vehicles. No one would have ever thought about a mode of transportation where we could sit back and travel distances of not just kilometers but cities over cities in the historical era when people used to travel on horseback and probably by walking.
People were initially reluctant to the idea of mechanized transportation. Not only this but when the first idea of an electric vehicle (EV) was pitched, people started making myths and doubting its ability.
Around 1832, Robert Anderson developed the first crude electric vehicle (EV). But until the 1870s, it wasn’t in practice. So basically, the crude EV is powered by a disposable battery with crude oil used to generate electricity. This was the first electric vehicle (EV) invention.
In pursuing electric mobility, Anderson was not alone in the near period. Anyos Jedlik, a Hungarian scientist, and Sibrandus Stratingh, a Dutch professor, invented their respective electric vehicle (EV) models.
At the same time, an American blacksmith who turned out to be an inventor invented an integral component of an electric motor that helped produce the first electric car.
As these inventors were trying to produce the various integral components used in electric vehicles (EVs), William Morrison, a chemist who lived in America, built the first practical electric car.
This vehicle was a traditional horse-drawn surrey carriage converted to fit a battery. Morrisons electric carriage has a maximum speed of 32km/hr (which is 20 miles) and a maximum capacity of 12 people.
