Electric cars with 3,000-mile range may soon be a reality
If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, BGR may receive an affiliate commission. One of the biggest problems surrounding electric vehicles continues to be their limited range. While most offer anywhere from 200-300 miles per charge, planning a route that has access to charging stations takes a bit more work than just getting in your gas-powered car and driving somewhere. However, a new innovation could unlock the potential for 3,000-mile-range EVs, doing away with this major obstacle. We've seen significant progress towards faster EV charging in recent years, as well as claims about improving EV range by upgrading the design of the batteries and the frames of the cars in question. But batteries are always going to have the same limitations… right? Today's Top Deals Best deals: Tech, laptops, TVs, and more sales Best Ring Video Doorbell deals Memorial Day security camera deals: Reolink's unbeatable sale has prices from $29.98 According to a report shared by GreenCarStocks, a couple of researchers in South Korea may have come up with a way to reduce silicon swelling in traditional EV battery designs. This could allow for batteries to store up to ten times more electricity compared to the batteries currently on the market. This would increase EV range exponentially. Of course, you'd still want to keep an eye out for charging sites when heading out on a long drive. However, if this battery innovation works out, and additional research shows it can be scaled up, then this could do away with one of the major obstacles to more widespread EV adoption. There are plenty of other challenges to tackle as well, but upgrading the range of electric vehicles could greatly improve their adoption rate. This technology goes beyond just looking for new battery designs, though. It completely reshapes how we think about battery chemistry as a whole, and that could very well be what we need speed up EV adoption. This research could also expand to other areas where battery technology could use improvement, such as solar-based power systems.

Canadian Grand Prix to run on the same day as the Indianapolis 500 in 2026
The Canadian Grand Prix will be held at the same time as the Indianapolis 500 in 2026. (Photo by Bryn Lennon - Formula 1/Formula 1 via Getty Images) The days of the Monaco Grand Prix preceding the Indianapolis 500 on Memorial Day weekend are gone. At least for now. Formula 1 released its 2026 schedule on Tuesday and it includes the series going head-to-head with the Indianapolis 500. The Monaco Grand Prix has moved back to June and will take place on June 7. In its place is the Canadian Grand Prix, which will be held on May 24. Advertisement This year's Canadian Grand Prix is set to be held on Sunday and has traditionally been held in mid-June. But next year's date swap is being made for travel-related reasons. Monaco will be the first race of the season in Europe. By moving the Canadian Grand Prix up and Monaco back, F1 will have nine straight European races. Sunday's Canadian Grand Prix is set to start at 2 p.m. ET for a primetime start in Europe. Assuming the race keeps that start time, it will overlap with the end of the Indy 500. The Indy 500 was scheduled to go green at 12:45 p.m. ET this year but was delayed for rain showers. The Monaco Grand Prix hasn't been held on Memorial Day weekend every year of its existence, but its absence from the same day of the Indy 500 and NASCAR's Coca-Cola 600 will be a stark change for race fans who have become accustomed to watching all three events in the same day. The ninth and final European race of the year will also be a new race on the calendar. F1 will host a second race in Spain on a street circuit in Madrid on Sept. 13. That race replaces Imola on the calendar. Imola has held a spring Grand Prix in recent years, but is being dropped for 2026 and beyond. Advertisement The 2026 season begins again in Australia before races in China and Japan ahead of Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. The Miami Grand Prix will be on May 3, while the United States Grand Prix in Austin will be on Oct. 25 and the Las Vegas Grand Prix will be on Nov. 21. The Vegas race will again be followed by races in Qatar and Abu Dhabi to close the season. 2026 Formula 1 schedule March 8: Australian Grand Prix March 15: Chinese Grand Prix March 29: Japanese Grand Prix April 12: Bahrain Grand Prix April 19: Saudi Arabian Grand Prix May 3: Miami Grand Prix May 24: Canadian Grand Prix June 7: Monaco Grand Prix June 14: Spanish Grand Prix Advertisement June 28: Austrian Grand Prix July 5: British Grand Prix July 19: Belgian Grand Prix July 26: Hungarian Grand Prix Aug. 23: Dutch Grand Prix Sept. 6: Italian Grand Prix Sept. 13: Madrid Grand Prix Sept. 27: Azerbaijan Grand Prix Oct. 11: Singapore Grand Prix Oct. 25: United States Grand Prix Nov. 1: Mexico Grand Prix Nov. 8: São Paulo Grand Prix Nov. 21: Las Vegas Grand Prix Nov. 29: Qatar Grand Prix Dec. 6: Abu Dhabi Grand Prix
