Blink Charging, dfYOUNG Partner For Simplified EV Fleet Management
Blink Charging (NASDAQ:BLNK) announced a new partnership with logistics firm dfYOUNG on Monday to simplify EV fleet management and home charger installations for corporate sales teams across the U.S. The companies aim to streamline the EV transition by combining Blink's charging technology with dfYOUNG's fleet logistics expertise. As part of the collaboration, dfYOUNG will deliver and install pre-packaged, RFID-enabled Blink chargers at sales representatives' will handle around-the-clock customer support, while dfYOUNG oversees fleet operations, which include delivery tracking, job completion, safety checks, and regulatory compliance. The news comes as Blink Charging's stock has faced significant headwinds, plunging over 19% year-to-date. This decline is largely attributed to the company missing analyst revenue estimates for the past four consecutive quarters and EPS estimates for at least two quarters. The stock performance has also been impacted by the Trump administration's recent reversal of EV tax credits. The U.S. House of Representatives approved President Donald Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill,' which terminates the $7,500 tax credit for new U.S.-made EVs, effective September 30, 2025. This policy change is expected to negatively affect the EV industry and its ecosystem, including companies like Blink Charging, with some automakers already increasing EV prices in response. Despite these challenges, Blink Charging has remained committed to unlocking value through strategic partnerships, acquisitions, and geographical expansions. Last Monday, Blink Charging expanded its partnership with Belgian real estate firm Group Bernaerts to boost EV charging infrastructure across Belgium. By the end of 2025, it plans to install at least 176 active chargers at Bernaerts-owned properties. The stock gained close to 13% after the update. Since the partnership was launched in 2022, the two companies have deployed 88 charging stations in Antwerp and Mechelen. As they accelerate their sustainability goals, they expect to double that number by the end of this year. On July 16, Blink Charging expanded its EV network in South Florida by installing Series 7 chargers at two Accesso-managed commercial properties. The move strengthens Blink's regional presence, bringing clean energy charging to high-traffic sites in Sunrise and West Boca Raton. On July 14, Blink Charging expanded its EV charging footprint by acquiring Zemetric, a Silicon Valley-based fleet-focused infrastructure firm. The deal brings Zemetric's leadership team, now filling key executive roles at Blink, together to accelerate innovation and global growth in smart fleet charging. On July 10, Blink Charging advanced its U.K. expansion by partnering with Axxeltrova to launch a £100 million fund for EV infrastructure growth. Under the deal, Axxeltrova will fund and own the chargers, while Blink installs, operates, and maintains them through its Blink Network. Price Action: BLNK shares are trading lower by 5.36% to $1.060 at last check Monday. Photo via Shutterstock UNLOCKED: 5 NEW TRADES EVERY WEEK.

Toyota's New Mid-Engine Testbed Sidelined by Development 'Difficulties'
The latest car news, reviews, and features. Toyota's not-so-secret mid-engine sports car program has hit a snag. The GR Yaris M Concept, which the company announced back in January, has still not made an appearance in Japan's Super Taikyu racing series. With five of the seven races scheduled for 2025 already in the bag, it's becoming increasingly unlikely that the GR Yaris M will race in the series this year. Why? Well, as it turns out, designing a proper mid-engine performance car is tricky. 'The GR Yaris M Concept exhibited at the Tokyo Auto Salon 2025 held in January is undergoing full team development in pursuit of further possibilities for the GR Yaris, with a view to participating in the Super Taikyu Series,' Toyota's announcement said. 'While many challenges have been identified and improvements are ongoing, there are difficulties unique to midship-mounted vehicles in terms of braking, steering, and driving, and Toyota has therefore decided not to participate with this vehicle at Autopolis to refine it further,' it said. With the new mid-engine race car still sidelined, Toyota instead brought along the #32 GR Yaris (a standard front-engine car, prepped as it was for the Nürburgring 24 Hour Race held in June) and the ENEOS-built #28 GR86. Mid-engine platforms are tough to dial in—just ask General Motors, which spent more time developing the C8 Chevrolet Corvette than just about anybody anticipated. It says a lot that even Toyota, which is in a position to draw on institutional knowledge from its development of the MR2, is facing setbacks. If there's any good news here, it's the fact that Toyota has acknowledged the delay openly. A pet racing project like this might normally die quietly in the face of mounting market pressures. Public updates like this suggest that this is more than just a frivolous boondoggle, meaning that it likely has implications for Toyota's future sports car development. In other words, new MR2 when?

TNB Tech Minute: Samsung Signs $16.5 Billion Chip-Supply Contract with Tesla - Tech News Briefing
Full Transcript This transcript was prepared by a transcription service. This version may not be in its final form and may be updated. Ariana Aspuru: Here's your morning TNB Tech Minute for Monday, July 28th. I'm Ariana Aspuru for The Wall Street Journal. Samsung electronics will manufacture artificial intelligence chips for Tesla in Texas under a $16.5 billion multi-year deal. Tesla CEO Elon Musk confirmed the deal in a post on X, saying that Samsung's new facilities will be dedicated to making the electric vehicle company's next-generation AI6 chip, which is intended to be used in humanoid robots, self-driving cars, and AI data centers. The contract is a major win for Samsung, which has struggled to catch up with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing. TSMC makes chips on a contract basis for customers like Nvidia, Qualcomm, and Apple. Elsewhere, the European Commission said the e-commerce platform Temu hasn't done enough to assess the risks of illegal products being sold online and that the China-linked company might be in breach of the watchdog's new Digital Services Act. After starting to investigate the company in October of last year, the commission said today that there is a high risk consumers can find unsafe products on Temu's website, like baby toys and small electronics. If the company is found in breach of the services law, Temu could face a fine of up to 6% of its annual turnover. And finally, in a new note, Jeffries analysts say that Nvidia could roll out a downgraded AI chip for China in the fourth quarter that complies with U.S. export rules. The new AI chip could be based on the company's existing Blackwell design, but with reduced memory specs to comply with a likely new criterion for AI chip exports. That's it for your TNB Tech Minute. Join us again this afternoon for more.
