Me gustan las comparativas “vintage” … unas más que otras… ¡y esta es de las que más! Comparamos a uno de los mejores coupés deportivos de Alfa Romeo de todos los tiempos, el Alfetta GTV 2.5 V6, con uno de los modelos más importantes en la historia de la marca alemana BMW, el 323i. Hay muchas cosas interesantes que contar… Este es un guión escrito más con el corazón que con la cabeza. Porque hay coches que enamoran, los Alfa casi todos y este especialmente. Y así se vivía en la fábrica. Orazio Satta, ingeniero que estuvo 25 años trabajando en Alfa, muchos de ellos como jefe de departamento técnico, decía en una entrevista: “Alfa Romeo no es sólo una fábrica de automóviles. Es un tipo de enfermedad, el entusiasmo por un medio de transporte". Yo tengo esa enfermedad. Vamos a hacer un poco de historia. Alfa tenía a finales de los 60 una bien ganada fama de hacer coches dinámicos y deportivos. Pero sus plurivictoriosos GTV ya acusaban el paso del tiempo. Y buscaban un sucesor, pero un sucesor que impactase a los potenciales clientes… y a los rivales. Así que contactaron con la recién creada Italdesign, la oficina de diseño nada más y nada menos que de Giugiaro. Y le hicieron el encargo. Y, como de costumbre, diseñó una obra maestra. Y la mecánica era de lujo, con el sistema “transaxle” con el cambio sobre el eje posterior, que luego Porsche utilizó e incluso quiso apropiarse de su “paternidad”. En 1974 nace este modelo y en 1980 llega a su capó uno de los mejores motores V6 no del momento, sino de la historia: El famoso V6 tipo Busso, en su versión de 2.5 litros y 160 CV. Recientemente hemos hecho un vídeo sobre este motor y su “rival” el PRV. Satta, Giugiaro, Busso… un coche de autor… de esos que, hoy día, no se hacen. Eso de calidad alemana, hoy día, no es lo mismo. Pero en estos años que van desde primeros de los 70 hasta los 80, periodo de vida del GTV, era una verdad como un templo. Cuando apareció el Alfetta GTV, incluso el V6, el modelo rival de BMW era el 323i de la generación E21, la fabricada entre 1975 y 1982. El 323i aparece en 1977. Este serie 3 era el sucesor del 2002, un coche excelente. Pero es nuevo serie 3 era un impresionante paso adelante del BMW sobre todo en términos de calidad de fabricación, lujo y confort. El 323i contaba también con motor de 6 cilindros, en este caso en línea, ni tan famoso ni tan afinado como el de Alfa, pero sin duda excelente. Con 2,3 litros e inyección ofrecía 143 CV, no destacaba por su buen par a bajo régimen, pero sí por su facilidad para subir de vueltas. Su arquitectura técnica era muy tradicional, con el motor delantero, cambio de cinco velocidades justo bajo la mano del conductor, propulsión posterior y suspensión independiente a las cuatro ruedas, la trasera digamos que ligeramente oscilante por el ángulo de sus trapecios inferiores. Más o menos ya conocemos a los contendientes. Vamos a ponernos a su volante y a compararlos. Comenzamos con el Alfa Romeo, un coche al que, como dice Luis Alberto, no te subes, sino que te “bajas”, porque era bajito. Para mí el puesto de conducción es perfecto, con todo a mano, aunque se hace raro el parabrisas que llega hasta casi encima de tu cabeza. He probado este coche sin servodirección, con el motor de 4 cilindros y es un infierno… imprescindible la servodirección que, si llevaba, al menos en España, el V6. La dirección es precisa, la estabilidad impecable, la respuesta del motor deliciosa, los frenos van bien y el cambio… pues no tan bien. Es duro, aunque relativamente preciso a coche nuevo. En el cambio del BMW no había reenvíos, la palanca salía directamente de la caja al habitáculo. Esto hacía que, debido al tamaño del cambio, te robase espacio para las piernas y, desde luego, no ayudaba al reparto de pesos, muy vencido hacia el tren delantero. La posición de conducción era muy buena, la servodirección también imprescindible y la habitabilidad, sobre todo atrás, era mejor que la del Alfa, por razones obvias: En el Alfa ahí iba el cambio y el techo bajaba mucho… Una vez en marcha, el motor no tenía, ni de lejos, los bajos del Alfa, pero sí subía rápido de vueltas como el Alfa. Te doy un dato: El BMW daba su par máximo a más de 4.500 rpm. En el motor del Alfa tanto la potencia, que era 17 CV mayor, como el par lo ofrecía a un régimen más bajo. El cambio era delicioso de tacto, muy BMW, los frenos cumplían y la estabilidad era buena, aunque algo complicada… en seco. En mojado no era tan buena y sí mucho más complicada. La ecuación de un motor sin bajos con un eje posterior con poco peso en unos tiempos donde la electrónica ni existía ni se la esperaba, suponía un problema… El 323i no era desde luego un coche fácil, aunque ofrecía una calidad realmente muy notable… en esto era mejor que el Alfa.

Fabrizio Giugiaro developed the BMW Nazca M12 concept supercar - at the age of just 25 - as a worthy successor to the BMW M1 designed by his brilliant father and Italdesign founder Giorgetto Giugiaro. Together, the two have made design history with creations ranging from the DeLorean to the Vision 2030 electric car. Fabrizio Giugiaro tells us the remarkable and entertaining story.

Ya sabéis que, en los coches, adoro el ingenio, la imaginación y que me gustan las rarezas. Os lo explico con una fórmula matemática: Imaginación + ingenio + coches raros = Concept Cars. ¡Como no he hecho hasta ahora un vídeo de Concept cars! ¡Si me encantan! Pues os digo el por qué: Porque mi “consejeros” me dicen que será un vídeo para gourmets que tendrá poco éxito. ¿Me ayudáis a llevarles la contraria? Los verdaderos “coches concepto” o “prototipos” nacen para que las marcas puedan probar nuevas soluciones, presentar nuevas ideas, que la prensa de su opinión, el público las valore y de esa forma, la marca, consigue información muy valiosa. Y para mí los verdaderos Concept Cars son los “operativos” y-o “funcionales”, es decir, coches que te subes, arrancas y puedes dar una vueltecita. Estos son lo que me parecen interesantes y lo que vas a encontrar en este listado. Para mí los Concept Cars de verdad son aquellos que podrían haberse pasado a la serie al día siguiente de su presentación. 1. Chrysler Ghia "Gilda" Streamline X (1955). El diseñador en jefe de Ghia en los años 50, Giovanni Savonuzzi diseño este coche por encargo del diseñador jefe del grupo Chyrsler, Virgil Exner que saldrá a relucir cuando hablemos de otro coche. El diseño era inequívocamente de inspiración aeronáutica, pero es que incluso el motor era una turbina de avión. Suena muy bien, pero esta turbina Garret no llegaba a ofrecer más de 100 CV, pero gracias a su afinadísima aerodinámica este coche llegaba a los 225 Km/h. 2. Renault 600/900 (1957). Mira este coche y dime: ¿Cuál es la parte delantera y la parte trasera? No es fácil. Y es que Renault ya pensaba en coches estilo “Monovolumen” en los años 50, pero eso sí, con motor trasero… ¡y un V8! 3. Plymouth XNR (1960). Era un Concept Car absolutamente operativo, con motor V6 que inicialmente, con preparación de competición, llegaba a los 250 CV y que pronto ofreció más de 300 CV, suficientes para superar los 240 km/h. El “Padre de la criatura” fue Virgil Exner y el coche nació con la idea de ser fabricado en serie... algo que Chrysler no juzgó oportuno… ¡qué pena! 4. Chevrolet Astro I (1967). Buscando info de este coche he leído en una página Web americana: “El diseño de este Astro 1 está a un millón de millas de distancia de los monovolúmenes y SUV cuadradotes en los que Chevrolet utilizaría este nombre”. Pues, ¡toda la razón! 5. Autobianchi A112 Runabout (1969). Diseñado en su etapa en Bertone por uno de los más grandes diseñadores, recientemente desaparecido: Marcello Gandini. Este prototipo funcional, como todos lo que están en esta lista no se llegó a fabricar como tal, pero si fue la semilla de la que nación el precioso Fiat X1/9, los dos con motor central y los dos, preciosos. 6. Modulo Pininfarina (1970). ¡Como me gusta este coche! Lo tuve en escala 1/43 de la marca “Auto-Pilen” y ocupaba siempre un lugar destacado junto a otro Concept Car…. En realidad, el nombre es Ferrari 512 S Módulo porque estaba basado en el modelo de competición del mismo nombre. Es lo más parecido en coche a un platillo volante… y la verdad que volaba, porque este prototipo funcional contaba con un motor Ferrari V12 a 60° de 5 litros y 550 CV. 7. Dome Zero (1975). Por supuesto era un prototipo plenamente utilizable, con motor Nissan de 6 cilindros en línea y 143 CV para un coche de apenas 900 kg. Se intento homologar en diversos países, sin éxito, con lo cual nunca pasó a la serie, pero finalmente “Hayachi San” consiguió hacer coches de competición con la marca Dome, que en japonés significa “sueño infantil”. 8. Aston Martin Bulldog (1979). Este coche nació con la idea de fabricarse en serie… en serie limitada a solo 25 coches. Al final la producción fue más limitada de los previsto, pues se fabricó solo uno. Las puertas de “alas de gaviota” mordían, por así decirlo, parte del suelo, para facilitar el acceso… una curiosidad. 9. Citroën Karin (1980). Confirmado: Los de Tesla con, como dirían mis hijos, unos “copiotas”. Os propongo un ejercicio: Mirad el diseño de este Concept Car diseñado por Trevor Fiore y ahora mirad al Tesla Cybertuck de 2020… es algo más que un parecido razonable. Yo diría que es más una copia que una inspiración. 10. Italdesign Machimoto (1986). ¡Que coche tan divertido y original! Y es que, ¿sabéis quién está detrás de Italdesign? ¡Nada menos que Giorgetto Giugiaro! El nombre de la empresa es “Italdesign S.p.A.”. Cómodos vas seis, aunque apretándose caben nueve en este ¿coche? No sé cómo llamarlo. Algunos pensaréis, “¡vaya chorrada!” en cambio a mí me parece un verdadero derroche de imaginación y la prueba de que las cosas pueden hacerse de una manera distinta… quizás no de esta, pero hay que aprender a romper las reglas… ¡ojalá ahora las cosas fueran así en el diseño de coches!

Hoy te vamos a hablar de coches que estoy seguro que no conocéis, al menos no todos. Porque antes de que VW llegase a diseñar y fabricar el Volkswagen Golf, un modelo que la salvó de la ruina, dio muchos palos de ciego… Os contamos una parte de esta historia en el vídeo titulado “Cuándo VW casi se arruina” que te aconsejo ver, pero como siempre, vamos a comenzar esta historia por el principio… bueno, más bien por la mitad… nos vamos a los años 60. “VW se ha quedado dormida”. No, esto no lo digo yo, lo dijo la prensa por culpa de unas declaraciones del ministro alemán de finanzas, Franz-Josep Strauss, quién culpó al presidente de VW en ese momento, Nordhoff de no aprovechar los momentos de bonanza para diseñar nuevos modelos. Si os preguntáis que pintaba el ministro alemán de finanzas en todo esto, os recuerdo que VW nace como una empresa perteneciente al estado alemán y al de Baja Sajonia y que en estos años aún un 40 por ciento de la empresa era de titularidad pública. ¡Era necesario un sustituto del Escarabajo! Vaya por delante que, en este momento, el nombre de Golf no existía... pero lo uso para simplificar, porque lo que buscaba VW era un sustituto del Escarabajo, que acabo siendo el Golf. Pero antes hubo otros intentos, raros, locos, curiosos… y todos fallidos. Y os lo vamos a contar y os lo vamos a enseñar. P603 Sachsenring AWZ. Ahora cuesta creerlo, pero en 1963 en VW pensaron que la tecnología de Trabant podía ser la solución. Alguno se reirá, pero el Trabant P603 tenía rasgos de modernidad, como su tracción delantera o su carrocería parcialmente de Duroplast, como en tradicional Trabant 601. EA 235 y 235a. En 1967 se proponen dos prototipos desde luego originales y con un rasgo en común: Abandonaban el motor bóxer de refrigeración por aire por un cuatro cilindros de agua de diseño Audi… en realidad que había diseñado Audi con la ayuda de Mercedes... como veis… ¡todo un lio! EA266 Porsche. Este prototipo fruto del trabajo conjunto de los ingenieros de NSU y de Porsche era muy original, tanto que llevaba el motor… ¡central! La disposición era curiosa, con el motor bajo los asientos traseros a un lado, con los accesorios al otro lado. De esta forma se pretendía maximizar el aprovechamiento del espacio interior. Pero el coche era alto, ruidoso en su interior y caro de fabricar. ES 276 VW. Este prototipo es un paso atrás, básicamente retomar el 235 y actualizarlo… pero este modelo no sedujo a nadie… hay que encontrar otra vía… EA 337 Giugiaro-Italdesign. La situación en VW comienza a ser desesperada… Y entra en escena Giugiaro, que hacia dos que había creado su propia empresa, Italdesign, encadenaba éxito tras éxito y tenía fama de rápido y resolutivo. VW llevaba 25 años buscando un sustituto al Escarabajo, y en 1970 hubo una reunión entre la dirección de la marca y Giorgetto y el mensaje fue claro: “Haz lo que quieras, pero hazlo rápido”. Y con todo este lio se llega a 1972 cuando sucede algo que supone un mazazo para la compañía: Opel supera en ventas en Alemania a VW que, recordemos, que venía de tener un “cuasi” monopolio una década antes. Pero en esos años pasa cosas buenas. Muy buenas, diría yo. Y es que VW compra Auto Union que a su vez era dueña de NSU y que ya tenía coches de tracción y motor delanteros, en concreto el precioso NSU Ro80 que dio lugar el primer VW refrigerado por agua: El VW K70. VW ya lo tenía todo: Un motor de 4 cilindros refrigerado por agua, un chasis de tracción delantera y una carrocería muy bonita de diseño italiano... con retoques alemanes… ¿Qué faltaba? Ya habían lanzado el Passat y el Scirocco, nombres de vientos. Se planteó el nombre de Caribe y finalmente se eligió el de Blizzard... que afortunadamente estaba registrado por una marca de esquís. Y a pesar del pomo con pelotita de Golf, se eligió el nombre de Golf en referencia a la corriente del Golf, “Golf Strom” en alemán…

På 70-tallet var det ingen grenser for hvor drøye konseptbilene kunne være. Pininfarina, Bertone og Italdesign gikk bananas, det samme med japanerne og amerikanerne. Men hvor bra var egentlig disse konseptene? Panelet triller terning over de spektakulære konseptene. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Chicago auto show is going on now, but I was able to score a press/media badge (thanks to this wonderful podcast). Lets talk about everything I saw there, specifically, the EVs! Random thoughts: 1. DMC is bringing the Delorean back as an EV with the help of Italdesign and its coming soon. 2. Jeep has another new 3 row, but its for india and I think its just a rebadged Commander (extended wheelbase Compass) 3. Super Bowl just happened and of course, it had some fun car commercials.

THERE WASN'T A SINGLE TESLA AD DURING THE SUPER BOWL. HERE'S WHY - CNN - If you were to judge the US auto market by this year's Super Bowl ads, you'd think virtually all the cars for sale in America today are electric vehicles made by the world's long-established automakers. And you never would have heard of Tesla, the world's largest EV maker. - Commercials during the game reportedly cost $7 million for 30 seconds, and automakers bought a total of nearly 10 minutes of those time slots, not counting pre- and postgame ads. Those commercial minutes were almost all about EVs. - But now, Tesla is facing more competition than ever for buyers looking to go electric. Established automakers and other upstarts have dozens of new EV models in their pipelines, some of which are already for sale. So some experts think Tesla may have to change its no-ads policy eventually. - The car industry has incredibly deep pockets for ad spending and spends more on advertisements than any other product group. - Automakers invested $4 billion in television ads in the first nine months of 2021, according to Kantar. - Auto dealers spent another $625 million in that same period of 2021. - Many of the cars advertised during the Super Bowl are not yet available to US buyers — and won't be for months or even years.

This makes another e-mobility funding from the infrastructure bill concrete. - to support production facilities for battery materials, battery cells and packs, recycling facilities, and second-life applications for batteries - the government of US President Joe Biden wants to ensure “that the United States can produce batteries and the materials they contain to increase economic competitiveness, energy independence and national security”.

These silicon anode cells hold 73 percent more energy than Tesla's Model 3 cells by weight, and they take up 37 percent less volume. - Tesla's current Model 3 cells serve as a state-of-the-art comparison, and hold around 260 Wh/kg and 730 Wh/l, according to Enpower. The new Amprius cells are a significant step up, both in specific energy and energy density, holding 450 Wh/kg and 1,150 Wh/l – and the company says that the undisclosed number of cells just delivered to "an industry leader of a new generation of High-Altitude Pseudo Satellites" - The company says the silicon nanowires are rooted right into the substrate of the anode, so conductivity (and thus power) is high. It says the cell cycle life is "excellent" and "continually improving," although it doesn't put any numbers on it, and it also says the anode is the only part of the battery that changes; the rest can be produced using existing manufacturing methods and components.

The German maker has now released images of a prototype model undergoing extreme cold-weather testing. - close to the Arctic Circle where temperatures can reach as low as minus 30 degrees celsius. The purpose of this gruelling phase of development is to evaluate how the van's various components, such as its powertrain and charging system, cope with the icy conditions. - Mercedes did reveal that – depending on configuration – this next-generation model will boast more than double the range of the current van (below), which can cover up to 96 miles on a charge. - Production of the next-generation eSprinter is set to begin in the second half of 2023 in South Carolina, USA, followed later by two plants in Germany.

I also wish to give the younger generation the opportunity to see that the people that these professionals come in different shapes and sizes and some of them will be unknown. The intention is to see that you should always be yourself and not let your job define or change who you are. Please get in contact if there is something specific you would like me to cover. I would also be really grateful if you could subscribe and share the podcast with anyone that has an affinity for cars, design or both. Thank you!

Our friendly SSC Tuatara keeps trying to reach his goal while a homage to the Countach is surfed online. The Lightyear One has a new partner for le production and Italdesign is teasing us with an electrical Ducati. Last but absolutely not least, the amazing R5 Turbo 3, a tribute to the Renault 5 Turbo from the 80's!

Ya hemos pasado el 40 de mayo, dejamos el abrigo, solecito… Pero en cualquier momento nos puede sorprender una tormenta y podemos encontrarnos baja adherencia en las ruedas por lluvia. El tema del aquaplaning no es cosa solo del invierno y siempre debemos tener neumáticos en buenas condiciones. ¿Qué tecnologías hay para resolver este problema? Por descontado el tema del dibujo en el neumático, de la presión adecuada y de suspensiones en buen estado. Por descontado el tema de la pericia y de adecuar la conducción a las circunstancias de la vida. ¿Cómo te quedas si te digo que hay una tecnología que no es el ABS o el ESP o similares que reduce mucho el aquaplaning? https://autofm.es/abs/ Primero te adelanto que si existe una tecnología que lo resuelve, que está en fase prácticamente de implementación en el mercado ¿Cuántos años lleva desarrollándose? Si lo pienso como por ejemplo el airbag te digo que 20 años. Esta tecnología en concreto tan solo tiene 4 años de antigüedad en su desarrollo, lo que no sabemos es cuándo llegará al mercado y si finalmente llegará. Eso es muy poco, en automoción lo mínimo son 5 años. Y así es, la diferencia está en que esto es una startup independiente que ha metido presión al sector con una idea totalmente disruptiva. ¿Cuánto piensas que mejora la frenada en condiciones de agua extrema? Un 20%? Un 35% en recta y un 30% en curvas. Eso es una pasada. ¿Cómo lo hace? Imagina una máquina de lavado a presión, incluso en un charco, si das con la pistola retira la mayor parte del agua… Esta tecnología consiste en colocar una pistola de agua a presión delante de cada rueda. Parece increíble y la par muy sencillo La tecnología es mucho más compleja de lo que parece y es altamente efectiva. El primer prototipo ocupaba la parte trasera de un alfa 159 y pesaba 300kg, un año más tarde ocupaba lo que una caja de zapatos y unos 30 kg, actualmente pesa 6 kg y va integrado en el paragolpes delantero del coche. Italdesign, en conjunto con Audi y Bosch son los responsables del desarrollo de llamado Easyrain AIS (Aquaplaning Inteligent Solution).

¡Por fin llega el vídeo mensual de la revista CEROaCIEN! Por cierto, que la revista CEROaCIEN, NO SE VENDE EN KIOSCOS, solo se vende online en este link www.ceroacien.es. #alfaromeo #coches #cochesclasicos Gracias a CEROaCIEN vamos a hacer un vídeo muy especial, porque pocas marcas hay con más carisma que Alfa Romeo. Pocos coches más bonitos que los Alfa. Pero hoy os traemos verdaderas delicatesen, probablemente algunos de los Alfa más bonitos de los historia, seis modelos basados en el Alfa 33 Stradale. ¿Os suenan los nombres de Fioravanti, Giugaro o Gandini? Preparaos que vienen curvas… ¡y rectas! En el vídeo que hicimos sobre Gandini, que te recomiendo, comentábamos que hubo en Italia, en los años ’60 y ’70, una verdadera revolución en el diseño de los coches que me atreví a comparar con el “Renacimiento” artístico iniciado en el siglo XIV. ¿Os parece exagerado? Os voy a demostrar que no, porque en una increíble coincidencia tres de los más grandes diseñadores de automóviles de todos los tiempos nacen el mismo año, en 1938. Os hablo nada menos que de Leonardo Fioravanti, Giorgetto Giugaro y Marcelo Gandini. “Ahí es ná” que diría un castizo. Estos tres diseñadores estaban relacionados con los estudio de diseño italiano más prestigiosos del momento, como Bertone, Pininfarina e Italdesign. Pero como en los tres mosqueteros, en esta historia no son tres los protagonistas, sino cuatro. Porque el “D´Artagnan de esta historia es Franco Scaglione, otro grande y que hizo el primer diseño del Alfa 33 Stradale, considerado todavía hoy como uno de los deportivos más bonitos de todos los tiempos. El 33 era un exitoso coche de competición diseñado en el aspecto técnico por otro grande, del que hemos hablado y hablaremos más, Carlo Chiti. El objetivo era tan claro como complicado: Construir un coche de calle que mantuviese al menos el 65 por ciento de las características del coche de carreras”. Nada más y nada menos. Y contacto con su amigo, Scaglione. Bueno, y sin más preámbulos vamos ya con la lista de estos seis trajes que ha lucido el Alfa Romeo 33 y de los que, gracias a la revista CEROaCIEN tenemos unas fotos espectaculares gracias a Kevin Van Campenhout y Rosario Liberti). Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale (1967) El original, obra de Franco Scaglione. Alfa Romeo Carabo (1968) El estudio que firma este diseño es Bertone, pero el hombre que diseño esta belleza fue Gandini. Alfa Romeo Iguana (1969) Giugaro es mucho Giugaro y la respuesta de Italdesign no se hizo esperar más de un año: El Iguana. Alfa Romeo 33/2 Coupé Speciale (1969) Un diseño espectacular obra de Fioravanti. Alfa Romeo 33 Spider Cuneo (1971) En este modelo Pininfarina quiso hacer una especie de “Downsizing” estilístico. Alfa Romeo Navajo (1976) Obra del estudio Bertone y diseñado por Gandini. Ya sabéis que a mí los vídeos sobre diseño de coches me gustan mucho. Y más cuando tenemos un material gráfico como el que nos ha conseguido la revista CEROaCIEN para su video… por cierto, a partir de ahora el vídeo de CEROaCIEN estará con vosotros los primeros jueves de cada mes… una cita obligada para los mas entendidos… a para los que aspiran a serlo. Coche del día Esta vez he elegido para coche del día un coche que no he probado ni probare… ¡pero me gustaría! Se trata de un Alfa Romeo 33 de competición, en concreto el Alfa Romeo 33TT12 que ganó el mundial de 1975. ¡Me encantaba este coche! Tanto su estética como su motor plano de 12 cilindros como chasis tubular que le daba nombre, pues en italiano se dice telaio tubolare, o sea TT.

Tritium Selected By US Army To Support Fleet Electrification Toyota begins European roll-out of Proace electric van Another Chinese Name To Remember - Jidu Auto Nio Will Disclose Strategy For Selling EVs In Norway Williams, Italdesign tout fast-to-market luxury EV platform   Show #1069   Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Saturday 1st May. It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story so you don't have to.   Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too.   HUAWEI BEATS APPLE TO THE PUNCH: SF5 ELECTRIC SUV "Chinese technology giant Huawei Technologies has the SF5 electric SUV developed in partnership with automotive brand Seres which will be sold and marketed by Huawei throughout its flagship stores across China." says The Driven: "The SF5 boasts two electric motors powering an all-wheel drive powertrain producing up to 543-horsepower and 820Nm of torque, and is able to accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in 4.68-seconds, and offers all-electric range for daily city driving of 180-kilometres (NEDC) in what is called “pure electric mode”.The fact that there is a “pure electric mode” also clarifies how the SF5 can boast a headline-grabbing extended range mode offering over 1,000-kilometres, though this press release avoids mention of the 1.5-litre, four-cylinder engine which acts as the range-extending generator"   https://thedriven.io/2021/04/27/huawei-beats-apple-to-the-punch-sf5-electric-suv-debuts-at-shanghai/   EIGHTY GIGAFACTORIES MAY BE INSUFFICIENT IF EV SALES ARE TO SURPASS ICE BY 2030S "The global electric vehicle industry could face a problem of battery capacity in the future, despite plans for 80 new EV battery gigafactories. A recent ABB report, in conjunction with the automotive intelligence unit of Ultima Media, highlights the role of automation in meeting demand as EVs are predicted to overtake ICE-powered vehicles by 2036." says AutocarPro:" Battery production capacity will likely need to outpace EV demand to meet the rising need for lithium-ion power in other sectors, along with mitigating supply and production constraints. The report estimates that global capacity for lithium-ion batteries will increase from 450 gigawatt hours (GWh) in 2020 to more than 2,850 GWh by 2030. The high price of EVs will increasingly create a barrier to further market penetration, reducing vehicle cost has therefore become a whole-industry focus. Given that the battery represents up to a third of vehicle costs, ABB is focused on solutions that improve battery manufacturing productivity."   https://www.autocarpro.in/news-international/eighty-gigafactories-may-be-insufficient-if-ev-sales-are-to-surpass-ice-by-2030s-79030   ELECTRIC CARS: WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO ALL THE DEAD BATTERIES? "While electric vehicles (EVs) may not emit any carbon dioxide during their working lives, [Paul Anderson from University of Birmingham is] concerned about what happens when they run out of road - in particular what happens to the batteries." says BBC News: "EV batteries are larger and heavier than those in regular cars and are made up of several hundred individual lithium-ion cells, all of which need dismantling. They contain hazardous materials, and have an inconvenient tendency to explode if disassembled incorrectly. Recent proposals from the European Union would see EV suppliers responsible for making sure that their products aren't simply dumped at the end of their life, and manufacturers are already starting to step up to the mark."   https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-56574779   TRITIUM SELECTED BY US ARMY TO SUPPORT FLEET ELECTRIFICATION  Tritium, a global leader in DC fast charging technology for electric vehicles (EVs), today announced that it has been selected to participate in the Power Transfer Cohort, powered by the Army Applications Laboratory (AAL) in collaboration with Alion Science and Technology. This program focuses on advancing solutions that will support remote access, rapid recharging, and scalable infrastructure to help the Army move to electric vehicles EVs. Tritium is the only DC fast charging provider which was selected for the program.   Companies in the Cohort will work directly with the Next Generation Combat Vehicle Cross Functional Team (NGCV) and the Ground Vehicle Systems Center (GVSC) to identify and explore EV infrastructure technologies that can work across the diverse fleet of ~225,000 Army vehicles operating in the most demanding environments.   Each cohort focuses on solving a specific problem aligned to the Army’s 16-year modernization strategy. The Power Transfer Cohort is an 8-week program, and each company selected to participate receives a contract for $100,000 with the potential for follow-on awards.   TOYOTA BEGINS EUROPEAN ROLL-OUT OF PROACE ELECTRIC VAN "Toyota has started the market launch of the Proace Electric and Proace Verso Electric in Europe. List prices in Germany start at 41,948 euros for the Proace Electric and 58,530 euros for the Proace Verso Electric. The smaller Proace City Electric is to follow in October this year." says electrive: "The Proace is not based on a Toyota platform, but on the EMP2 from PSA/Stellantis. The minibus is thus another offshoot to the three well-known models of the PSA brands Citroën, Peugeot and Opel. The Proace Electric is the commercial vehicle version (comparable to the Opel Vivaro-e), while the Proace Verso Electric is the passenger car model for private customers, like the Opel Zafira-e Life. The technical data matches that of the PSA trio: The 100 kW electric motor is used, Toyota also offers two battery options (50 or 75 kWh). Depending on the battery, between 230 and 330 kilometres WLTP range"   https://www.electrive.com/2021/04/27/toyota-begins-european-roll-out-of-proace-electric-van/   ANOTHER CHINESE NAME TO REMEMBER - JIDU AUTO "Jidu Auto, Chinese search engine giant Baidu’s new car-making venture, plans to invest CNY50 billion (USD7.7 billion) in the next five years and recruit 2,500 to 3,000 employees in the next two to three years, according to its chief executive." reports  Yicaiglobal: "Jidu Auto is likely to showcase its first vehicle at the Beijing International Automotive Exhibition next April and will unveil one new model every 12 to 18 months after that, Xia Yiping told Yicai Global today. The firm has already built a core team of about 100 people, he said. Baidu founder Robin Li highly values the project and will play a role in key parts of its engineering and design work, Xia said, adding that Jidu Auto will launch a new round of financing soon."   https://www.yicaiglobal.com/news/baidu-to-invest-usd77-billion-to-make-cars-in-next-five-years   NIO WILL DISCLOSE STRATEGY FOR SELLING EVS IN NORWAY ", the company will broadcast a news conference on May 6. We expect it to reveal the details of Nio’s global expansion." according to InsideEVs: "The Chinese carmaker had already revealed that it wanted to be in all major EV markets by 2024. Apart from China, that means Europe and the US. The news conference could be restricted to the Norwegian market, but we expect to learn a lot more."   https://insideevs.com/news/504249/nio-norway-sales-may-6/   WILLIAMS, ITALDESIGN TOUT FAST-TO-MARKET LUXURY EV PLATFORM "Williams Advanced Engineering and ItalDesign will market an electric-car platform aimed at premium brands looking to sell long-range, high-performance EVs costing more than 100,000 euros ($121,000)." says Autmotive News Europe: "The two companies say the EVX platform will enable companies to bring a car to market in 30 months to 36 months, about 12 months earlier than traditional development timings. Williams will supply the rolling chassis under the partnership, while ItalDesign will contribute the body design, safety systems, electric architecture, and limited production of up to 500 cars for customers."   https://europe.autonews.com/automakers/williams-italdesign-tout-fast-market-luxury-ev-platform     QUESTION OF THE WEEK WITH EMOBILITYNORWAY.COM   Whats the most effective consumer education regarding EVs?   Email me your thoughts and I’ll read them out on Sunday – hello@evnewsdaily.com     It would mean a lot if you could take 2mins to leave a quick review on whichever platform you download the podcast.   And  if you have an Amazon Echo, download our Alexa Skill, search for EV News Daily and add it as a flash briefing.   Come and say hi on Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter just search EV News Daily, have a wonderful day, I’ll catch you tomorrow and remember…there’s no such thing as a self-charging hybrid.     PHIL ROBERTS / ELECTRIC FUTURE (PREMIUM PARTNER) BRAD CROSBY (PREMIUM PARTNER) PORSCHE OF THE VILLAGE CINCINNATI (PREMIUM PARTNER) AUDI CINCINNATI EAST (PREMIUM PARTNER) VOLVO CARS CINCINNATI EAST (PREMIUM PARTNER) NATIONALCARCHARGING.COM and ALOHACHARGE.COM  (PREMIUM PARTNER) DEREK REILLY FROM THE EV REVIEW IRELAND YOUTUBE CHANNEL (PREMIUM PARTNER) RICHARD AT RSEV.CO.UK – FOR BUYING AND SELLING EVS IN THE UK (PREMIUM PARTNER) eMOBILITY NORWAY HTTPS://WWW.EMOBILITYNORWAY.COM/  (PREMIUM PARTNER)     DAVID AND LISA ALLEN (PARTNER) GARETH HAMER (PARTNER) BOB BOOTHBY FROM MILLBROOK COTTAGES – 5* GOLD SELF CATERING COTTAGES (PARTNER) DARIN MCLESKEY FROM DENOVO REAL ESTATE (PARTNER) JUKKA KUKONEN FROM WWW.SHIFT2ELECTRIC.COM RAJEEV NARAYAN (PARTNER) IAIN SEAR (PARTNER)   ADRIAN BOND (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALAN SHEDD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALEX BANAHENE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALEXANDER FRANK @ https://www.youtube.com/c/alexsuniverse42 ANDERS HOVE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ANDREA JEFFERSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ANDREW GREEN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ANDY NANCARROW AND LILIAN KASS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ASEER KHALID (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BÅRD FJUKSTAD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BLUNDERBUSS JONES (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER BRIAN THOMPSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BRUCE BOHANNAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CHARLES HALL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CHRIS HOPKINS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CHRISTOPHER BARTH (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) COLIN HENNESSY AND CAMBSEV (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CRAIG ROGERS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAMIEN DAVIS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID FINCH (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID MOORE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID PARTINGTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID PRESCOTT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DC EV (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DON MCALLISTER / SCREENCASTSONLINE.COM (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ED CORTREEN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ERIC HANSEN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ERU KYEYUNE-NYOMBI (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) FREDRIK ROVIK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) GENE RUBIN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) HEDLEY WRIGHT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) HEINRICH LIESNER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN GRIFFITHS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN (WATTIE) WATKINS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JACK OAKLEY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JAMES STORR (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JAVIER CARMELO DÍAZ PÉREZ (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JIM MORRIS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JOHN SCHROEDER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JON AKA BEARDY MCBEARDFACE FROM KENT EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JON MANCHAK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JUAN GONZALEZ (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) KEVIN MEYERSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LAURENCE D ALLEN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LEE BROWN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LUKE CULLEY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARCEL WARD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARTY YOUNG  (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MIA OPPELSTRUP (PARTNER) MIKE WINTER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NATHAN GORE-BROWN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NATHANIEL FREEDMAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NEIL E ROBERTS FROM SUSSEX EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) OHAD ASTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PAUL STEPHENSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETE GLASS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETE GORTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETER & DEE ROBERTS FROM OXON EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PHIL MOUCHET (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PHILIP TRAUTMAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RAYMOND ROWLEDGE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RENE KEEMIK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RENÉ SCHNEIDER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ROB FROM THE RSTHINKS EV CHANNEL ON YOUTUBE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ROBERT GRACE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RUPERT MITCHELL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) SEIKI PAYNE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) STEPHEN PENN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) STEVE JOHN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) THOMAS J.

From our childhood memories to the present, car video game and sim racing title help to build our passion. From Lego Racer, Gran Turismo and more, we take a journey into titles from 20 years ago. How not to touch the Need for Speed saga? Or the evenings spent racing together? With the bought of steering wheel we moved more and more into sim, less than arcade title, from Assetto Corsa, Project CARS, or rFactor2, even with VR to be more immerse, always with the same passion that made us take those first race in Gran Turismo 2 trying to buy the Escudo! Talking about bring to life old memories, Italdesign celebrate the 40th anniversary of the DMC DeLorean teasing us with a potential commemorative model. Our refreshing appointment to Bar Sport brought us to the world of WRC with the first event of the season with the Montecarlo Rally, do not miss that out, and as usual, enjoy the ride!

Directly from The Garage in Kamakura,I had an interesting discussion about car designwith Francesco Santillo.He has worked in the past for Italdesign,Piaggio,Mercedes-Benz,Toyota and Honda.Currently he is an independent designer and entreprenuer at the same time.Follow on Instagram:Francesco pagehttps://www.instagram.com/francesco_santillo/Santillo cicli pagehttps://www.instagram.com/santillocicli/Cdpodcast pagehttps://www.instagram.com/cdp.odcast/Cris pagehttps://www.instagram.com/design_forbreakfast/https://www.instagram.com/cristofarodp/"Your Call"Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

Show #842   Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Friday 17th July 2020. It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story so you don't have to.   Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too.   HYUNDAI KONA ELECTRIC GLOBAL SALES REACH MILESTONE OF 100,000 "Hyundai Kona Electric has just reached the milestone of 100,000 global sales in just over two years since its market launch in March 2018. As of June 30, 2020, 103,719 Kona Electric were sold. More than three-quarters of the total outside of its home market - South Korea." says InsideEVs: "There should be no problem increasing the sales of Kona Electric beyond 60,000 this year, compared to less than 50,000 in 2019. The goal for Hyundai by 2025 is to gradually increase battery-electric car sales to 560,000 annually."   The Kona is now made in Czech Republic about 235 miles east of Prague, 30,000 cars in first year. Batteries coming from LG Chem and SKI in Poland and Hungary.   TESLA GIGAFACTORY NEVADA NOW PRODUCES 13 MILLION BATTERY CELLS PER DAY "The science channel got access to Tesla’s Gigafactory Nevada for their new show ‘Super Factories’ – giving us a rare new look inside the plant." says Electrek today: "When originally announcing the plan for the factory, Tesla was talking about the plant producing 105 GWh of battery cells per year and 150 GWh of battery packs per year once completed. However, the factory is currently about 30% complete and Tesla hasn’t expanded the facility for years as both the automaker and Panasonic have focused on optimizing the current production capacity. Also, there are a few nice tidbits of information. For example, they say that the current production capacity stands at 13 million individual cells per day. At ~17 Wh per cell, that’s 221 MWh of battery cells per day or 80 GWh per year, which would be a big increase from the latest disclosed official capacity at Gigafactory Nevada."   Teslarati notes: "Rare footage of the battery cell manufacturing process was also highlighted in the Super Factories segment. This includes the massive, elaborate conveyor systems that the company utilizes for its battery cell manufacturing. A look at batteries seemingly being assembled for a Powerwall battery unit was also included in the feature. Interestingly enough, the segment also mentioned that Gigafactory Nevada is capable of producing around 13 million cells per day. "   https://electrek.co/2020/07/16/tesla-gigafactory-nevada-battery-cell-production/   https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-giga-nevada-battery-cell-production-line-deep-dive-video/   STUDY SHOWS IMPRESSIVE RESALE VALUE FOR MODEL 3 A recent study showed some impressive resale figures for the Tesla Model 3, saying the sedan holds its value more than five times better than other EVs.  Car search engine iSeeCars.com analyzed more than 6.9 million car sales to identify models with the greatest loss in value after three years.  The three available Tesla vehicles currently in production with used car versions available all have below-average depreciation for the segment." reports TeslaMotorsClub.com: "The report said one reason Teslas defy the high depreciation of the EV segment is because over-the-air software updates help keep even the older versions current. As such, consumers are likely willing to pay higher prices for the Model S and Model X than what they are willing to pay for other used luxury vehicles, the report found.   https://teslamotorsclub.com/blog/2020/07/16/study-shows-impressive-resale-value-for-model-3/   VOLKSWAGEN TRADEMARKS E-BEETLE AND OTHER CLASSIC E-VW NAMES "They’d be fools not to consider it, and it now looks like maybe, just maybe, they weren’t fools after all, as a member of the VWIDTalk forum found evidence that Volkswagen has reserved the European trademarks for e-Beetle as well as some other air-cooled era classics." says Jalopnik; "Along with the e-Beetle, VW has reserved e-Samba, which may be used as the official name for the reborn electric Microbus currently known as the ID Buzz, along with the e-Karmann (likely an electric small sports car, perhaps a convertible, like the original Karmann-Ghia), and, maybe the most questionably, the e-Kübel. Of course, just reserving trademarks isn’t an indicator that a company is actually planning to build cars with those trademarked names, but it’s certainly a step. "   https://jalopnik.com/volkswagen-trademarks-e-beetle-and-other-classic-e-vw-n-1844407434   VOLKSWAGEN GROUP OF AMERICA OPENS NEXT-GEN CHARGING STATION AT ARIZONA GLOBAL TEST CENTER Volkswagen Group of America (VWGoA) has opened one of the most extensive electric vehicle charging stations at a North American test facility. This next-generation charging station at its Arizona Proving Grounds will be used to help VWGoA evaluate battery and charging performance under extreme hot-weather conditions. Engineers will also receive real time data to see how various chargers compare. The 50-space charging station is located at VWGoA’s global test facility in Maricopa, AZ—one of two worldwide, Group-wide hot-weather test facilities—and will allow the charging of EVs in weather conditions up to 120 degrees. Twenty-five DC fast chargers, with variable power outputs from the most commonly used charger power today at 50 kilowatts (kW) all the way up to 350kW, can charge capable EVs at speeds up to 20 miles per minute. Ten Level 2 AC chargers will also be used at the facility to simulate typical, home-based charging. The chargers will utilize charge plugs from the three standard connector types: U.S. (CCS1), Europe (CCS2) and China (GB-T). All charging equipment comes from different brands from around the world to maximize testing variability.   AUDI E-TRON IS WORLD MARKET LEADER IN ITS SEGMENT   The Audi e-tron is the worldwide market leader in its segment. The first fully electric series production model from Audi is popular all over the world with customers and media alike.  With the e-tron GT, the Q4 e-tron, and the Q4 Sportback e-tron, Audi is looking toward an electric year 2021 in both senses of the word. In the first half of 2020, Audi delivered 17,641 e-tron models to customers worldwide. This corresponds to an increase of 86.8 percent as compared to the previous year – despite the difficult market situation due to the coronavirus pandemic. The fully electric Audi model is therefore way ahead of its competitors in the full-size battery electric vehicle SUV segment worldwide. It is even the overall top-selling electric SUV in Europe. The Audi e-tron is highly sought after in the Scandinavian market in particular. In Norway, which is the pioneering country when it comes to electric mobility, it was the top-selling passenger-car model in the first half of the year. The e-tron makes up 92 percent of the volume of Audi models delivered in Norway. It also makes up a significant portion of deliveries in Iceland (93 percent), Sweden (12 percent), and Israel (14 percent). In the USA, the e-tron has recorded an increase in sales by more than 50 percent as compared to the previous year. [Audi] will be launching the Audi e-tron GT. Performance and an expressive design are the most important ingredients for the e-tron GT. It thereby emphasizes the sportiness of the brand and continues the success story of the Audi e-tron together with the electric Q models.   https://www.audi-mediacenter.com/en/press-releases/audi-e-tron-is-world-market-leader-in-its-segment-12967   MCKINSEY FINDS 7 OF 10 CHINA EVS POTENTIALLY PROFITABLE "The management consultancy McKinsey has disassembled and analysed ten popular electric cars from Chinese manufacturers for a new study. From this, the consultants derived some interesting statements on possible profits and the market prospects of international manufacturers." says Electrive: "For the study entitled “How to drive winning battery-electric-vehicle design”, popular electric cars from Chinese production were analysed, both from established groups such as SAIC and the GM brand Buick, as well as from start-ups such as Nio or World Champions. In the analysis, the experts also found that there is still no “silver bullet” in the design and procurement of electric drive components for Chinese BEVs, as is the case for European models. For two of the ten vehicles, all components were developed in-house, for three all drive components were purchased, and five chose a middle course of in-house development and outsourcing. There are also different approaches to battery designs, as well as to the networking and integration of the drive systems."   https://www.electrive.com/2020/07/13/mckinsey-analysis-finds-7-of-10-chinese-evs-potentially-profitable/   FISKER TRYING TO SECURE VOLKSWAGEN'S MEB PLATFORM FOR THE OCEAN " One key piece of info is that Fisker is in talks with Volkswagen about using VW's MEB modular electric platform and ancillary components for the Ocean. The agreement would include battery packs as well." says Autoblog: "Furthermore, this attempt at deeper collaboration with VW is part of a two-year growing partnership. The Verge went through the presentation, noting that Fisker and VW entered a memorandum of understanding in 2017, upgrading that to a "collaboration agreement" in 2018. Audi subsidiary Italdesign built the Ocean crossover Fisker debuted at this year's Consumer Electronics Show, the prototype described as a "near-series prototype" and sitting an MEB platform. This month, the two companies could sign a "cornerstone agreement" to formalize "costs, production capacity, and a timeline."

In this episode we again venture down a different path, this time I talk to the Creative Design Director at Mustang RTR, Lindsay Ross about one of his design passions, the "wedge" era. Italian design houses ItalDesign, Bertone and Pininfarina were at the forefront of the movement, however it was not just the Italians as other car manufacturers soon pushed the notion of the wedge to varying degrees of success. Make sure to follow us and subscribe!NoBraking can be found on Instagram and Facebook

Today on our silly photography podcast, we eventually talk about micro 4/3 and sensor sizes in general. A NAPfS member asked us to talk about sensor sizes and in particular Micro 4/3… We sort of did that. Recursive digressions are a thing. Nikon has worked with Giorgetto Giugiaro of Italdesign to create their camera designs. […] The post On the Road Podcast 22 – Sensors for All appeared first on Austin Photo Workshops.

Filippo Perini is the Head of Design at Italdesign in Italy. Italdesign is a world leader in the provision of development services for the automotive industry. Born in 1965 Filippo worked as a freelance designer for Alfa Romeo, Fiat Auto, and Aprilia as a consultant for the Federation of Scientific and Technical Associations. In 1995 he joined the Alfa Romeo Centro Stile and in 2001 he was appointed Director of Exterior Design of Alfa Romeo. He worked on the Alfa 159, 147, and 8C Competizione concept car. He was the Senior Exterior Designer at Audi and at Lamborghini he was the Head of Exterior Design. From 2006 to 2015 Filippo managed many successful projects as Director of the Automobili Lamborghini Centro Stile before his current role at Italdesign.

Previously, the marque had enlisted a cadre of local carrozzeria, including Frua, Vignale, Ghia, Zagato and Italdesign, to create such notable soft-top Maseratis as the 1950 A6G Spyder, the 1960 3500GT Spyder, the 1964 Mistral Spyder, the 1968 Ghibli Spyder and the 2001 Spyder. The new GranCabrio was designed by Pininfarina, which also created the current Quattroporte and GranTurismo. It will be assembled at the Viale Ciro Menotti factory in Modena. The GranCabrio gets a soft canvas top and will be powered by a 433-horsepower 4.7-liter V8. It will reach European dealers this winter and begin shipping to export markets next spring. 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show: Maserati GranCabrio - http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/autoshows/frankfurt/2009/maseratigrancabriofrankfurtpreview.html
