Hankook Tire & Technology said Monday that it has secured the headline sponsorship for the United Kingdom’s premier electric-vehicle exhibition, Everything Electric UK 2026. The deal represents a significant broadening of the company’s sponsorship footprint as it promotes its iON tire line to a growing European consumer base. Everything Electric is organized by Fully Charged, a British electric vehicle (EV)-focused media company, and serves as a leading platform to showcase the latest technology and market trends in the EV and clean-tech sectors. Hankook Tire joined the event as an official sponsor in 2024, upgraded to a headline sponsor at one venue in 2025 and is now headlining all three regional editions this year. The exhibition runs across three venues: the Great Yorkshire Event Centre in North Yorkshire on May 8-9, Cheltenham Racecourse in Gloucestershire on June 12-13, and Twickenham Stadium in London on Sept. 11-12. Each two-day event opens with a business-to-business day for

Online shopping sales in Korea rose 13.3 percent from a year earlier to a new monthly high in March, driven by strong demand for Tesla vehicles and transactions in food services, government data showed Monday. The value of online shopping stood at 25.58 trillion won ($17.37 billion) in March, up 3.03 trillion won from a year earlier, according to the data from the Ministry of Data and Statistics. The figure marked the highest monthly level since 2017, when the ministry began compiling related data. Spending on automobiles and auto accessories surged 109.9 percent from a year earlier, supported by Tesla models sold through online ordering systems. Sales of food services climbed 14.2 percent from a year earlier, while that of food and beverages jumped 13.3 percent on-year, the latest findings showed. Purchases made through smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices rose 11.6 percent from a year earlier to 19.4 trillion won, also setting a new record.

Sales of Hyundai Motor and Kia vehicles in the United States fell slightly from a year earlier, while numbers for hybrid vehicles rose to a new monthly high, the automaker said Monday. The Korean automakers sold a combined 159,216 vehicles in the key American market in April, down 2.1 percent on-year, according to the companies. Hyundai Motor sold 86,513 units, down 1.5 percent from the previous year. Its luxury vehicle brand Genesis sold 6,356 units, up 0.8 percent on-year. Kia's sales declined by 2.8 percent from the previous year to 72,703 units. The overall sales decline was due to a base effect from a sales surge last year, as customers rushed to purchase cars ahead of the imposition of Washington's auto tariffs, according to the company. Sales of eco-friendly cars, including electric vehicles (EVs), however, rose 47.6 percent on-year to 48,425 units. Demand for hybrid cars also grew by the sharpest 57.8 percent on-year, affected by the U.S. government's decision to terminate EV

Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (Supervised) fleet has crossed the 10 billion mile mark, according to the automaker’s updated safety page. It’s the threshold that CEO Elon Musk himself set earlier this year as the data milestone needed for “safe unsupervised” driving. The achievement represents a massive acceleration in data collection — the fleet was logging roughly 29 million miles per day by late April, up from 14 million miles per day at the start of the year. But hitting a round number doesn’t mean Tesla is about to flip a switch on Level 4 autonomy. more…

Tesla has launched a new Model 3 Premium RWD trim in Canada starting at just $39,490 CAD — a record-low price for the electric sedan in the country. The price, which converts to roughly $29,000 USD, is made possible by sourcing the vehicle from Giga Shanghai instead of Fremont, California. The move marks the first time Tesla is selling China-made vehicles in Canada since the country imposed a 100% tariff on Chinese EVs back in 2024 — and it creates a massive price gap with the Model 3 Performance. more…

arXiv:2604.27000v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern software systems are increasingly developed within rapid continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, where ensuring security prior to release presents significant technical and organizational challenges. Traditional static and dynamic analysis tools provide valuable structural and behavioral insights, yet they often operate in non-adaptive workflows and produce large volumes of warnings requiring manual triage. Feedback-driven fuzzing and search-based testing approaches have demonstrated the power of iterative input refinement guided by execution signals, while large language models (LLMs) have shown promise in automated test generation but frequently lack semantic grounding in program structure. This paper presents a systematic survey of adaptive and AI-augmented security testing research across five domains: (1) structural program analysis for vulnerability detection, (2) DevSecOps and continuous security testing,

LG Energy Solution said Thursday it swung to a net loss in the first quarter from a year earlier, as weakening global demand for electric vehicle (EV) batteries weighed on earnings. For the first three months of this year, the company shifted to a net loss of 944 billion won ($635.8 million) from a net profit of 227 billion won a year ago. "Lower sales of EV batteries to key customers and higher costs associated with the initial ramp-up of an energy storage system (ESS) plant in the United States weighed on quarterly performance," a company official said. It also shifted to an operating loss of 207.8 billion won from an operating profit of 374.7 billion won over the cited period. Sales fell 2.5 percent to 6.55 trillion won from 6.72 trillion won.

LG Energy Solution is likely to supply BMW with its 46-series cylindrical batteries, a deal that would mark a potential first-time partnership to power the German carmaker’s pure electric vehicles. According to the battery industry on Thursday, the two sides are in the final stages of negotiating a contract estimated to be worth around 10 trillion won ($7.2 billion), with a supply period expected to span about 10 years. If finalized, the agreement would expand LG Energy Solution’s client base for the 46-millimeter-diameter cylindrical battery format, a technology widely seen as key for next-generation electric vehicles. The company has already secured supply agreements for the 46-series batteries with several global EV manufacturers, including Tesla, Mercedes-Benz, Rivian, Chery Automobile and Aptera. However, an LG Energy Solution official declined to confirm the reported BMW contract, saying, “We cannot comment on matters related to specific customers.” The potential deal comes as

HONG KONG — Electric vehicles (EVs) made in China now account for one in every three new EV registrations in Korea, as Tesla’s Shanghai-built models power the surge and Chinese carmakers start to gain traction. Chinese auto manufacturers have further room to expand, analysts said, supported by higher fuel prices linked to the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran and looser restrictions than traditional target markets. Still, they cautioned that tightening subsidy regimes could slow the pace of expansion. Sales of China-made EVs in Korea soared to 25,000 units in the first quarter of 2026, marking a 286.1 percent increase from a year earlier, according to data from the Korea Automobile and Mobility Association. Over the same period, Korean carmakers sold around 51,000 units, but grew at a much slower pace of 126.1 percent. The market share of EVs manufactured in China surged from 4.7 percent in 2022 to 33.9 percent last year, while that of Korean EVs fell from 75 percent to 57.2 percent, according
