Today’s electric bicycles, particularly cargo, off-road, and commuter models, have dazzled us with their high power outputs and cutting-edge technology. While all that’s cool and all, there’s another branch of e-biking that’s all about preserving the natural pedal feel of the traditional bicycle. These bikes are packing a motor for the sake of making rides…

The facelifted Tesla Model 3, also known as “Highland,” doesn’t have a Performance trim yet. Still, there are several hints that point to the idea that Tesla is actively working on a replacement for the sporty electric sedan.
