    Ford’s Explorer EV has been delayed.

    The European-only electric SUV is now coming Summer 2024, a few months later than planned. Ford representative Stefan Tinnemann said the delay is to comply with new UN EV requirements. Ford’s Explorer EV will use Volkswagen’s MEB platform, and will be made at the re-tooled Cologne plant, where it’ll build other future EVs.

    Meanwhile a completely different US version will arrive later alongside an Expedition-sized EV.

    Inside the arrangement that helps Apple keep its edge in chips.

    The Information reports that in Apple’s deal with TSMC, the costs of defective chips are eaten by the chip manufacturer instead of Apple, its biggest customer. It’s a boon to Apple over competitions as it moves forward using new 3nm technology that has lower production yields.

    Apple’s also paying more than ever for the chips. That might be why there’s a continued split on new iPhones, with the top chips going to the most expensive models.
