Welcome to a special edition of the Everything EV Podcast from EV Powered, hosted by Matt Allan and George East.This time, we're diving into a hotly debated topic: which electric cars of today will become the classic cars of tomorrow?From quirky concepts and cult favourites to landmark launches and misunderstood icons, Matt and George debate which EVs deserve future legend status — and which ones are doomed to be forgotten. In the running:The Honda E, BMW i3, and Abarth 600e – flawed but fun, and all the more loveable for it.Early trailblazers like the VW e-Golf, Renault Twizy, and Tesla Model 3 – are they automotive turning points or overpriced tech novelties?Modern design icons like the Renault 5, Hyundai Ioniq 5 N, and Porsche Taycan – are they already classics in the making?Plus: why the Citroën Ami, Skoda Enyaq, and even the upcoming Fiat Panda EV could be cult favourites for future collectors.Along the way, expect plenty of left-field picks, spirited debate, and some brutal honesty about what really defines a ‘classic' — from both a car enthusiast's and an EV driver's point of view.Want to weigh in?

ROMA (ITALPRESS) - Grande Panda è la protagonista dello stand di Fiat e Abarth al Salone dell'Auto di Bruxelles. Presentata in anteprima lo scorso luglio a Torino, il nuovo modello è ora ordinabile anche in Belgio, sia in versione elettrica che ibrida. La Hybrid sarà equipaggiata con un motore turbo 1.200 a 3 cilindri con una potenza massima di 100 cavalli e un propulsore elettrico a 48 volt con cambio automatico a doppia frizione a 6 rapporti e sarà disponibile in tre allestimenti: Pop, Icon e La Prima. Per il marchio Abarth riflettori puntati sulla 500e e sulla 600e Scorpionissima, una edizione limitata della più potente vettura di sempre del marchio con 280 cavalli e un'accelerazione da 0 a 100 in 5,85 secondi, esposta nell'esclusivo colore Hypnotic Purple. Il commento di Gaetano Thorel, Head of Enlarged Europe Fiat e Abarth.abr/gsl

BRUXELLES (BELGIO) (ITALPRESS) - “Vogliamo dominare il mercato su tutti quei veicoli che vanno dai due metri e mezzo ai quattro: lo stand di Bruxelles è la dimostrazione di quello che è Fiat in Europa”. Questo il commento di Gaetano Thorel, vice-Presidente senior in Stellantis e responsabile dei marchi Fiat e Abarth per l'Europa, in un'intervista a margine del Salone dell'Auto, in corso a Bruxelles dal 10 al 19 gennaio. “Sul nostro stand si trova dalla Topolino, alla 500 elettrica in versione Armani fino alla Pandina, che resta la nostra icona indiscussa in Italia con 100 mila modelli all'anno - ha aggiunto Thorel -. Oggi, inoltre, fa il suo debutto la Grande Panda, sia in versione elettrica che ibrida. Questa è la rappresentazione di quello che Fiat è in Europa e dentro Stellantis”. “L'elettrico è una tecnologia corretta, ma è chiaro che ci vuole del tempo. Il punto di arrivo è già segnato, ma la vera discussione è come arrivarci senza creare troppi problemi all'industria dell'automotive in Europa” aggiunge rispondendo a una domanda in merito all'elettrico. “Il fatto di guidare una macchina a 0 emissioni è una bellissima cosa. Io stesso guido una 500 elettrica da tre anni e non tornerei mai indietro” ha sottolineato Thorel, per poi aggiungere “l'Italia ha ancora della strada da fare sotto questo punto di vista. Credo si debbano superare delle barriere e soprattuto che si debba effettivamente far guidare le macchine elettriche alle persone”. xf4/tvi/gtr

We quickly review the fastest cars you can buy for less than $35,000: the 2024 Ford Mustang EcoBoost High-Performance Pack, 2024 Subaru Impreza WRX tS 6MT, 2025 Mazda3 Turbo AWD, 2024 Volkswagen Golf GTI 380 S manual, 2025 Hyundai Elantra N 6MT, 2025 Mini Cooper S and 2024 Toyota GR86 Trueno 6MT (and Subaru BRZ twin). Plus 3 of the quickest – and most expensive – new GT cars on sale today: the 2025 McLaren GTS, 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT63, and 2025 Bentley Continental GT Speed. === The Carmudgeon Show Sponsor, Vredestein Tires: https://www.vredestein.com/ Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-Rev === On this episode of the Carmudgeon Show, Jason vows to go on an all-expenses-paid trip to Lake Tahoe on Hagerty's dime to properly evaluate the van, Jynah's, grip in the snow (now that it's wearing a set of Vredestein Wintrac Pro tires). Then the boys dive into Gran Turismo – no, not the classic Playstation racing simulators – but rather attaining and maintaining high speeds over extended durations. More specifically, the “Old Man GT” episode of Cammisa's Ultimate Drag Race Replay, which features some of the quickest, most expensive, and impractical 4-wheeled jewelry money can buy: the McLaren GTS, Mercedes-AMG GT63, and Bentley Continental GT Speed.  While discussing the new AMG GT63 (which no longer rides on underpinnings from the Dodge Viper lineage like its predecessors, the gullwing-door SLS AMG and the previous AMG GT, but now shares its platform and drivetrain with the SL line), Derek shares a nugget from his vintage Mercedes literature which shows SL buyers in the 1990s had significantly more money to spend than S-Class-buying plebes. And Jason theorizes that SEC owners likely had even more still.  Speaking of the Mercedes, Jason laments that the new SL63's posterior profile looks suspiciously Porsche 911-y, but the duplicative flattery appears to date all the way back to the Porsche 356 and the contemporary Mercedes-Benz W198 300 SL Gullwing.   In other news, Motor Trend Video is dead, and Jason is deeply empathetic.  After the mourning, we delve into the next drag race episode: cars under $35,000! This episode pits the latest crop of cheap speed against one another in bracketed races with nearly every drivetrain orientation: naturally aspirated, turbocharged, front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive, manual, automatic, DCT, and so on. Unabashed boosted 4-cylinder noises assault the senses and appease the Abarth gods. Our first race pits the front-wheel drive cars against one another: the Hyundai Elantra N races the Mk8 Volkswagen GTI and the new F66 Mini Cooper S – which is completely overlooked by enthusiasts in 2024 (and is too cutesy for its own good), yet somehow manages to be effortlessly quick and best the OG hot hatch GTI.  Then, the second race includes the rear- and all-wheel drive cars: the rwd Ford Mustang EcoBoost races the rwd Toyota GR86, the awd Subaru WRX and the surprisingly quick Mazda 3 Turbo AWD.  And all Jason wants for Christmas is a GR86/FR-S/BRZ hatchback with a K24.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Autobianchi A112 – Italiens Antwort auf den Mini Der anhaltende Erfolg des Mini von British Motor Corporation hat auch die italienische Firma Autobianchi inspiriert. Das Konzept des 1969 vorgestellten A112 ist ähnlich: eine kleine Karosserie, ein sportlicher Motor, einfache Technik, ein akzeptabler Preis und schon rollt der Rubel. Im Falle des A112 rollte allerdings eher die Lira und später auch andere europäische Währungen. Rund 1,2 Millionen A112 wurden verkauft, allerdings ohne entsprechende Rostvorsorge, was den kleinen Flitzer heute zu einem seltenen Auto macht. Ganze 17 Jahre wurde der Autobianchi unter der Ägide des Fiat-Konzerns gebaut und über Lancia vertrieben. In den letzten Baujahren wurde er sogar selbst zum Lancia A112. Der große Vorteil gegenüber seinem britischen Konkurrenten war die große Heckklappe und das Ladevolumen von 700 Litern bei umgelegter Sitzbank. Dazu kamen Scheibenbremsen vorne und Einzelradaufhängung an allen vier Rädern. Sogar Carlo Abarth tunte den A112 und zauberte 70 PS aus dem kleinen Motor. Damit wurde der kleine zum Biest und machte sich als Stadt-Rowdy durchaus einen Namen. Der A112 gilt darüber hinaus als Vorreiter des Baukasten-Prinzips: die Fahrwerkskonstruktion stammte vom Fiat 128, der Motor aus dem Fiat 850. So ließ sich der kleine Renner günstig produzieren und auch heute verdankt das Auto diesem Prinzip seine gute Ersatzteil-Situation. Ron und Frederic finden den A112 beide gut. Für Frederic müsste es in jedem Fall der Abarth sein, Ron findet den Kleinwagen auch mit weniger potentem Motor super. Was das alles mit Herrn Hans, der Formel 1 und mattschwarzer Farbe zu tun hat – das erfahrt ihr in diesem Podcast.

TORINO (ITALPRESS) - “La Abarth 600e è la dimostrazione che si possono realizzare vetture sportive, divertenti, dinamiche avendo come fonte di potenza un motore elettrico. Chi la guida lo capirà immediatamente perché non ci si ricorda di essere su una elettrica ma si ha solo il piacere di guidare una vettura attaccata al terreno che dà una grande adrenalina come nello stile Abarth. È stata sviluppata come una termica e l'unica differenza è il motore elettrico. Quindi oltre a divertire è anche ecologica e non avrà problemi di circolazione, tasse, parcheggio". Così Gaetano Thorel, Head of Fiat & Abarth Enlarged Europe.xb4/tvi/gsl

TORINO (ITALPRESS) - “Con la 600e siamo voluti tornare alla pura essenza di Abarth che si poggia su tre pilastri: lo stile, la performance e il contenuto racing. Lo abbiamo fatto grazie alla partnership con il settore motorsport di Stellantis dove lavorano le stesse persone che sviluppano le vetture della Formula E, Le Mans Series e Rally. Grazie a loro abbiamo riportato su quest'auto tutto il know how delle corse, in termini di set up, tuning, messa a punto e anche tutte le componenti tecniche. Per esempio il differenziale con la quale è equipaggiata la Abarth 600e permette di chiudere le curve in modo unico senza soffrire mai di sottosterzo” dice Francesco Morosini, Fiat Serial Life & Abarth Manager.xb4/tvi/gsl

This was a fun episode. We talk about Toyota replacing over 100,000 engines in the US on Toyota and Lexus products and how it may affect Australians.   We also go back to chat about the epic Hyundai Ioniq 5 N. Even if EVs give you ick, this thing is a stack of fun. What isn't fun, though, is the Abarth 500e and the Subaru Solterra...but more about that in the episode.   If you haven't done so - subscribe to the show on your favourite podcast platform and hit us up at contact@thedriversshow.com.au if you have any questions you want us to read out on the show!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

¡Me encantan las comparativas de coches clásicos! No, no es cuestión de nostalgia… o no solo. Es que me encanta ver como coches que rivalizaban por los mismos compradores eran tan distintos entre sí. Estos grandes rivales de la España de los 70 y 80 eran muy diferentes… y los más vendidos, con diferencia, de su categoría. Tenían una cosa en común: Una gama muy amplia. Además de su amplia gama, tenían más cosas en común, como ser la evolución mejorada de los coches que les precedieron. Porque el R18 no era más que un R12 mejorado y más grande mientras que en el caso del Seat 131 no era más que un 124 más grande y puesto al día… pero manteniendo la tracción posterior y eje trasero rígido que ya, en esas fechas, eran una solución algo obsoleta. Primero veamos el “hilo” temporal. El Seat se comienza a vender en España en 1975, solo un año después de comenzar su venta en Italia el Fiat 131. La vida del Seat 131 seria larga, de nueve años, hasta 1984 cuando es sustituido por el Seat Málaga o, como leí en algún diario, el Seat Ronda “con culo”. El R18 apareció en España en 1978, solo meses después que en Francia. Su vida también fue de 9 años… en Europa. Porque en Argentina este modelo se mantuvo en producción y con notable éxito hasta 1993. Su sucesor, el R21 al contrario que lo sucedido con el Seat, se situaba incluso más por arriba del propio R18 y tuvo en enorme y merecido éxito… El Seat 131 fue la culminación de Fiat en cuanto a modelos con propulsión posterior. El 131 estaba más lejos del 124 que el R18 del R12. Porque sí, era una mejora del Seat 124, con una carrocería más grande, moderna, bonita, espaciosa y aerodinámica. Los R18 españoles y franceses eran los mismos. No exactamente porque con muy buen criterio no solo la definición de equipamiento, sino los reglajes de suspensión e incluso los desarrollos de los Renault fabricados es España se adaptaban a las peculiaridades de nuestras vías, con muchos menos kilómetros de autopistas y mayores pendientes. Pero en el caso de Seat la diferencia de los coches italianos y españoles era mayor y os explico los motivos, que son muy interesantes. Primero, porque se puede decir que en Italia el 131 rápidamente sustituye al 124, mientras que en España el éxito del modelo hace que convivan más años. En España no llegó nunca al Fiat 128, este sí de tracción delantera y que por tamaño, precio y segmento de mercado estaba más próximo al 1245 que el propio 131. El 131 fue diseñado en plena crisis del petróleo y se aprovechó para montar motores más modernos y económicos de consumo en cilindradas desde los 1,3 litros a los 1,6 que no llegaron a España, pues el 131 español utilizó los mismos motores que venía utilizando en sus Seat 124 y 1430 normales y especiales. El R18 nace en España con la versión GTS con un equipamiento tirando a generoso para le época y con motor de 1.647 cm3 y 79 CV, que luego fueron algunos más. En Francia había versiones más modestas, que como en el caso de Seat, se fabricaron en Valladolid, pero con la idea de ser destinadas a la exportación. En 1980 nacen las versiones Diesel con motor de 2.068 cm3 y 65 CV, que cuando llego el turbo un año después pasó a contar con 85 CV… un coche muy apreciado, pues disponía de las mismas o mejores prestaciones del original GTS de gasolina, pero con consumos mucho más ajustados. Y no me voy a olvidar del turbo, marca de la casa en esas fechas, con motor de 1.565 cm3 y 110 CV que, a partir de 1984, llegaron a los 125 CV. Los 131 españoles, como hemos dicho usaban motores propios. Con buen criterio el 1.124 cm3 de 65 CV se juzgó escaso para este coche cuya gama comenzaba con el 1.438 cm3 de 75 CV del Seat “catorce-treinta”. El siguiente motor era el 1.592 cm3 utilizado en los 124 más deportivos y en el Seat 132, con 95 CV. Y el motor estrella de los 131 más potentes, como el “Diplomatic” o el deportivo y precioso “CLX” era otro motor español, el de 1.919 cm3 y aa4 CV, una derivación del 1.995 cm3 de Fiat, pero reducido de cilindrada para acogerse a beneficios fiscales, por la fiscalidad en esos momentos “penalizaba la cilindrada”. Me gusta el Seat 131 pero si debo ser justo creo que el R18 fue mejor coche, al menos en España. ¿El motivo? Era un coche mucho más adaptado a la particulares condiciones del mercado español. Era muy cómodo en todo tipo de firmes, fácil de conducir y muy fiable. Si hablamos de versiones deportivas, ahí sí, creo que el 131 2.000 CLX era superior al R18 Turbo. Justo es reconocer que con la nueva suspensión de 1982 este modelo ganó en agilidad en curva, pero estaba lejos de eficacia deportiva del 131. Coche del día. Voy a elegir un Fiat 131… ¡pero el Abarth! ¡Que preciosidad! Un coche nacido, nada más y nada menos, que para sustituir al Lancia Stratos en los Rallyes… y que lo hizo con honor.

Abarth Sondermodelle auf Basis des Fiat 500 - Jens, Frank und Karsten nehmen in der aktuellen Folge die limitierten Editionen des italienischen Herstellers unter die Lupe. Die Kleinwagen mit Turbomotoren und dem Luxus eines ganz Großen bestechen durch ihre Detailverliebtheit. Sympathieträger und Cashcows für Fiat, aber Langstreckenautos sind sie leider nicht. Die genaue Einordnung der verschiedenen Sondermodelle sind schon recht tricky - fällt unseren Hosts die "Future Classics"-Prädikatisierung vielleicht leichter?

Este podcast es un reto. Porque Fiat siempre ha cuidado el sector más deportivo de sus clientes con preciosos coches deportivos y coupés. Seguro que conoces algunos, pero… ¿conoces los 10 que os traigo en este vídeo? En realidad Fiat y todas las marcas italianas cuidan a su público más “deportivo” y dinámico. Por varios motivos, pero dos están muy claros: La afición al motor en Italia se vive más intensamente que en el resto de Europa e Italia es la cuna del diseño del automóvil. La suma de ambas cosas da como resultado que sea obligatorio para una marca italiana ofrecer modelos deportivos y coupés. Y si piensas que en Fiat han hecho deportivos y coupés modestos… estás equivocado. No vamos a hablar de versiones deportivas de coches más o menos normales, como puedan ser el Fiat 131 Abarth, el Ritmo 130 TC o el actual 500 Abarth. 1. Fiat 124 Spider (2015). No voy a dedicar mucho espacio a este coche. No porque no me guste, que me gusta… ¡cómo no me va a gustar si es un MX5 con otra carrocería y otro motor! Pero como hemos comenzado por orden inverso ya te adelanto, aunque lo sabes, que este coche es la reinterpretación de otro nacido en 1966. Definitivamente, faltan ideas. 2. Fiat Coupé (1993). A mi este coche me parece feo… pero distinto. Y eso hace que me guste. Voy a defender a su diseñador, Chris Bangle, no es fácil hacer un coupé bonito partiendo de un coche de tracción delantera y motor transversal. Para defender a Bangle, y como exclusiva en este tipo de videos, vamos a recurrir a… ¡nuestra Pizarra Hermética! Soy de la opinión que Bangle hizo un buen trabajo. Y la versión de 5 cilindros dos litros con turbo y 220 CV fue el coche de tracción delantera más rápido de su época. 3. Fiat X 1/9 (1972). Una belleza diseñada por Marcello Gandini en su época de Bertone. Además, con motor central y techo tipo targa. Un coche que merecía más motor pues lo más gordo que llevó fue un 1.498 cm3 de 85 CV… pero el coche, que he podido probar, es una maravilla. Eso sí, con acabados Fiat años 70. 4. Fiat 124 Sport (1971). El primer Fiat 124 Sport no es idéntico a “nuestro” Seat 124 Sport, pues tiene el capó más afinado. Luego se utilizó la estética que conocemos en el Seat 1.600 y luego hubo una versión 1.800. Este coche es nada más. Pero también nada menos, que un simple 124 vestido con carrocería coupé y con motores de 1.6 y 1.8 litros biárbol. Pero la suspensión es idéntica, no muy bien resuelta la delantera y la trasera de eje rígido. 5. Fiat 130 Coupé (1969). Cuando era niño, este coche me flipaba. Lo pude ver al natural y me pareció enorme. Y muy bonito… no es para menos, es un trabajo de Paolo Martin en Pininfarina. ¡Y con un pedazo de motor! Un pedazo de motor V6 de 3,2 litros y 165 CV con discos ventilados, suspensiones independientes… una joya. 6. Fiat Dino (1966). Todo el mundo conoce al Lancia Thema 8.32 con motor Ferrari. Y muy pocos al Fiat Dino con motor Ferrari. Un motor V6 de 2 litros diseñado por Franco Rocchi inspirado en los diseños del hijo de Enzo, Dino. El motor ofrecía 160 CV, una barbaridad en 1966 para un motor de dos litros. Y el diseño de la carrocería era responsabilidad de Bertone… ¡que lujo! 7. Fiat 124 Spider (1966). El Dino se presentó en el Salón de Turín de 1966 y este precioso descapotable diseñado por Pininfarina se presentó en el Salón de Turín del mismo año. ¡Menudo año para Fiat! Otro derivado del prolífico 124 Berlina que nació con motor 1.4, el de nuestro Seat 1430 y con su eje rígido. Pero salto a la fama en 1972 por ser el coche elegido por Fiat para correr en Rallyes, eso sí, una versión 1.8 de 128 CV, 165 en competición, con techo duro para reforzar el chasis y suspensiones traseras independientes. 8. Fiat 850 Coupé (1965). Un 850 con una bonito, muy bonita carrocería, obra del propio Centro Stile Fiat y con motor potenciado. Algo más tarde apareció la versión llamada en España “Sport Coupé” con doble faro delantero, la trasera con una ligera forma a modo de spoiler y, sobre todo, el motor 903 cm3 que luego propulsó al Fiat-Seat 127… 9. Fiat 850 Sport Spider (1965). Para mí, una verdadera joya diseñada por Bertone y uno de los descapotables más bonitos que conozco. He podido probar no uno sino ¡tres! De estos coches, marca Seat, y son bonitos e iban muy bien de estabilidad y con un motor muy alegre… pero los acabados y la calidad eran desastrosos y el chasis se retorcía como si fuese chicle… 10. Fiat 8V (1952). Me gusta más el nombre en italiano, “Otto Vu”. Y es que ya, en 1952, Fiat quería hacer un Coupé, pero un coche muy alto de gama, con motor V8 en V con uh extraño ángulo de 70 grados, de dos litros y 105 CV… que no eran pocos para la época. No se escatimó en nada, la carrocería era obra de Zagato como se leía en el rotulo que se incluía en cada coche donde se podía leer “Elaborata Zagato”.

Als Abarth rückt der 124 Spider noch weiter weg von seinem Genspender, dem Mazda MX-5. Er ist stärker, exklusiver, viel teurer. Und er hat den Glamour aus vergangenen Rennsport-Zeiten, der dem MX-5 immer gefehlt hat. Trotzdem bleibt der Italiener ein leichter und hautnaher Roadster, aus derselben Hiroshima-Fabrik wie seine Verwandten, der Fiat 124 Spider und der Mazda MX-5.

00:00 - The Top Five Most Popular Better Than New EpisodesIn this episode I take a look back at the top five more popular episodes on Better Than New based on downloads. These five episodes are just a small fraction of the over sixty episodes posted so far and all the content is evergreen, meaning it's relevant now and a year or two from now since the used cars we cover won't change, other than price and maybe a recall. 01:50 - The Fifth Most Popular Better Than New Episode This was Episode #58, titled "Paintless Dent Removal Saves You Time And Money When Your Car Gets At Dent". I spoke with Ryan Snider, a local PDR specialist about the paintless dent removal process and how it can save consumers money and time. 03:45 - The Fourth Most Popular Better Than New EpisodeThis was Episode #1: the very first Better Than New Episode titled "Can Teen Drivers Learn To Love An Old Hand-me-down Used Car?" In it I spoke with my two sons about whether or not they were okay driving less-than-perfect used Hondas for their first cars. Hint: They were just fine. 06:45 - The Third Most Popular Better Than New Episode. Finally we have one about a specific car. This is episode #39 on the 2012 to 2019 Fiat 500 Abarth, a 2-door turbocharged front-wheel drive hatchback08:15 - The Second Most Popular Episode This was episode #47 on the outstanding, but under rated (in my opinion) 2007-2010 Saturn Sky Redline, a 2-seat sports car that serves up serious horsepower from its 4-cylinder turbo engine. 10:45 - The Most Popular Better Than New Episode Of All Time Is...This was Episode #27 from November 25, 2022, featuring the iconic Jeep Wrangler, and specifically the 1997-2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ series. Available with a 4-cylinder or 6-cylinder engine, manual or automatic transmission, hard top or soft top and various trim levels, buyers could configure their Wrangler TJ just about any way they wanted to meet their needs. 00:00 - Honorable MentionsEpisodes 59-62 - Four-part Little Weirdos 4x4 Series featuring the Geo Tracker, the Daihatsu Rocky, the Suzuki Samurai and the Dodge RaiderEpisode 57 - The boxy, versatile Honda ElementEpisode 45 - 4th Gen Pontiac Firebird V8 Muscle CarEpisode 56 - BMW 323Ci - An affordable 3-series CoupeEpisode 34 - 2nd Generation Nissan Xterra 4x417:40 - CloseIf you missed them the first time around, be sure to check out these and other older Better Than New episodes on affordable used cars, trucks and SUVs . The content is still relevant no matter when you listen, and the only thing about these episodes that might change over time is the price range of the car or truck featured. That's it, so pick an episode you haven't heard before and enjoy!

In late October of 2020, tonight's guest, Will, went to his friend Brad's house, about 6 miles from where Will lived. The two of them worked on motorcycles, talked about various things, and had a great time in the process. Around 11:30 that night, Will decided to head home, in his Fiat 500 Abarth. Being a nice night out, he decided to take the long way home, down some scenic country roads. While he was driving down Highway 11, his biggest concern was hitting a deer in the road. As fate would have it, he was about to have to contend with something much more worrisome than having a deer in his path, on the road. The moment he saw this huge creature, it focused its attention on him and charged! Premium memberships are now available!

Polestar 5 has been spied on the road with provisional lights, giving a glimpse of its sleek. Set to hit the market in 2023, the Polestar 5 will be a strong contender in the luxury electric vehicle market and a direct competitor to the Tesla Model S and Lucid Air. Volkswagen has unveiled the facelifted version of its popular ID.3 featuring subtle updates and improved software, assist systems, and other tweaks that enhance both its exterior and interior. The car retains the same electric drive motor, battery options, and range ratings, and is set to ship to customers in Europe in the fourth quarter of 2023. It adds “functions on demand,” which can be added later. The starting price for the ID.3 is now €43,995, significantly higher than the previous price of €30,000. Volkswagen-owned software company CARIAD has launched a new application store for cars, in partnership with HARMAN. Audi is the first brand to integrate the store in selected models as of July 2023, offering customers a range of exclusive apps from Volkswagen Group brands, as well as third-party content. Kia will unveil its new electric SUV, the EV9, in mid-March, which will be the company's flagship SUV built on the E-GMP platform, offering impressive performance and range, and equipped with advanced technology and driver assistance systems. The EV9 is expected to have a range of around 300 miles on a single charge and compete with the Tesla Model X and the Audi e-tron. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is considering a new interpretation that would require all electric and hybrid passenger vehicles made since 1997 to have pedestrian warnings. The reinterpretation could result in a massive recall, forcing manufacturers to retrofit millions of affected vehicles Jaguar Land Rover owner, Tata Motors, has demanded over £500m of government aid for a new battery factory in the UK, with the Indian group reportedly close to choosing between Spain and the southwest of England. UK car production dwindled last year to its lowest level since the 1950s, following the closure of Honda's plant in Swindon. In Australia, Victoria's Zero and Low-Emission Vehicle road user charge has resulted in the registration of 243 electric vehicles being cancelled, with critics labelling it "the world's worst EV policy." The highly unpopular tax is facing a High Court challenge, with plaintiffs arguing that it is unconstitutional. Italian sporting brand Abarth has unveiled its first-ever electric vehicle, the Abarth 500e, which features a more responsive motor and improved handling over its petrol counterpart. Priced from £38,695 in the UK, deliveries of the hot hatch will begin in June 2023. In the UK, Luxury vehicle division Genesis, owned by Hyundai Motor Group, is seeking partners with automotive experience and customer service experience to expand its presence in the UK and operate around 15 new retail centres next year, following its growth curve and popularity in particular of its electrified models, including the Genesis GV60 EV. Genesis will reward its partners based on their customer satisfaction scores alone. In China, Dongfeng Motor Group has partnered with Renault to develop sodium-ion batteries for electric vehicles (EVs) in China, which offer a lower cost and safer alternative to commonly used lithium-ion batteries. Renault and Dongfeng plan to begin mass production of EVs equipped with sodium-ion batteries in the near future to reduce their dependence on the supply chain for rare earth metals used in lithium-ion batteries. Mini has announced the production of an electric version of the Countryman crossover in 2023, with a range of approximately 300 miles per charge, contributing to BMW's goal of 50% electrified global sales by 2030.
