'Newest Electric Cars' Trend After Owners Discover They Can Charge Using a Single AA Battery
In a shocking twist that has the automotive world both baffled and amused, the sudden viral trend of “newest electric cars” stems from a satirical deepfake video claiming that Tesla, Rivian, and Lucid have secretly installed standard battery compartments in their latest models. The irony? The footage shows a supposed “AA battery emergency charger” that works only if you hold your tongue just right and believe in renewable energy really, really hard. Meme historians are pointing out that this is a perfect parody of overblown EV anxiety, as panicked drivers now jokingly ask if their new $80,000 electric sedan can be jump-started by a Duracell Bunny. The funniest part? Major automakers are reportedly “reviewing their emergency roadside assistance FAQ” to clarify that, no, you cannot swap a lithium-ion pack with an Energizer.
