The staleness rules
- Any dated claim older than 60 days flags to an editor automatically.
- Deals older than 30 days flag; expired deals unpublish and redirect to the category — never a 404.
- Route pages are re-verified against charger check-in data before every holiday season.
Rankings
Where we rank (best EVs, best rideshare cars), the criteria are stated on the page: cost per km of range, charging speed, warranty, eligibility. Commercial relationships are disclosed and never affect the order. Where precision would be fake — insurance quotes, resale forecasts — we give frameworks instead of numbers.
