Genesis weighs entry-level EV priced in 44 million won range
Genesis is reviewing ways to expand into the mass market with a more affordable electric vehicle, keeping open the possibility of an entry-level model. Genesis executives leading its European business are assessing demand.

Tesla 2026 Model Y test drive: Without FSD, steering assist is also removed
Tesla’s 2026 Model 3 and Model Y further expand screen-based controls and remove steering assist unless drivers subscribe to Full Self-Driving (FSD), according to a user cited by Cleantechnica. The user highlighted new on-screen gear shifting as a major inconvenience, though some steering-wheel controls were seen as improved. The report also noted trim-based differences in seat controls, concerns over paid driver-assistance features, and a widening gap between older hardware and newer FSD versions.
