In der aktuellen Podcast-Folge hatte ich die Freude, mit Marie, besser bekannt als madame electric in den sozialen Medien, zu sprechen. Marie ist eine der bekanntesten Stimmen in der E-Mobilitäts-Community und teilt seit über drei Jahren ihre Erlebnisse auf Instagram, YouTube und LinkedIn. Besonders bekannt ist sie durch das ADAC-Format „Unter Strom“, wo sie regelmäßig über Elektroautos berichtet. In unserem Gespräch ging es um ein besonderes Abenteuer, das Marie letztes Jahr gewagt hat: eine Langstreckenreise mit einem Elektroauto und einem Wohnwagen. Marie erzählte, dass sie sich für diese Reise in ein „Abenteuer mit dem E-Auto und Wohnwagen gestürzt“ hat. Ihr Ziel war es, herauszufinden, ob diese Kombination alltagstauglich ist. Dabei entschied sie sich für den Knaus Yaseo 340PX, ein speziell für Elektroautos konzipierter, leichter und aerodynamischer Wohnwagen, und den Kia EV6 als Zugfahrzeug. Ihre Wahl fiel auf den Kia EV6, weil dieser „einen Allradantrieb und eine gute Ladeleistung“ bietet – ideal für die Höhenmeter, die sie auf der Fahrt über den Brenner erwarteten. Sie beschrieb die Herausforderungen des Reisens mit einem Gespann sehr anschaulich. Besonders beim Laden stieß sie auf Herausforderungen: „Am Brenner war es knifflig, weil die Ladesäulen im Parkhaus waren und ich mit dem Wohnwagen nicht hineinpasste. Da blieb mir nichts anderes übrig, als abzukoppeln.“ Sie erzählte weiter, wie sie von hilfsbereiten Motorradfahrern unterstützt wurde, die halfen, den Wohnwagen abzuschieben, damit sie rückwärts an die Ladesäule fahren konnte. „Das war zwar stressig, aber am Ende hatten wir eine tolle Begegnung. Die Motorradfahrer fuhren privat auch elektrisch – damit hatte ich gar nicht gerechnet. E-Mobilität verbindet wirklich.“ Neben den Herausforderungen hob sie aber vor allem die positiven Erfahrungen hervor. Besonders begeistert war sie von der Möglichkeit, den Wohnwagen über das Elektroauto mit Strom zu versorgen. Der Knaus Yaseo 340PX ist „komplett gasfrei, was bedeutet, dass man den Platz, den sonst eine Gasflasche einnimmt, anderweitig nutzen kann.“ Diese Autarkie bietet Reisenden mehr Flexibilität. Sie erklärte, dass sie den Kia EV6 auch dafür nutzte, um den Wohnwagen mit Strom zu versorgen, während sie auf Campingplätzen stand. „Wir haben es ausprobiert und es hat wunderbar funktioniert. Man kann Klimaanlage, Herd und Kühlschrank problemlos betreiben.“ Ihre Reise führte sie über den Brenner bis zum Gardasee, und obwohl das Reisen mit dem Wohnwagen und E-Auto mehr Zeit in Anspruch nimmt, blieb Marie entspannt. Sie sagte: „Natürlich dauert die Fahrt länger, wenn man regelmäßig laden muss, aber für mich gehört das zum Urlaub dazu. Der Weg ist das Ziel.“ Trotz der längeren Ladepausen war sie begeistert von der Kombination aus E-Auto und Wohnwagen. Sie betonte aber, dass diese Art des Reisens nicht für jeden etwas sei: „Man muss bereit sein, mehr Zeit für die An- und Abreise einzuplanen. Für mich ist das okay, aber ich weiß, dass nicht jeder so viel Geduld hat.“ Ein weiterer spannender Punkt im Gespräch war die Möglichkeit, das Elektroauto als Energiequelle für den Wohnwagen zu nutzen, um komplett autark zu campen. „Der Knaus Yaseo 340PX ist dafür vorbereitet, über die Bordbatterie des Autos mit Strom versorgt zu werden. So kann man auch mal abseits von Campingplätzen stehen und trotzdem den Komfort des Wohnwagens genießen.“ Zum Schluss des Gesprächs gab Marie einen Ausblick auf ihre kommenden Pläne. Für ihre nächste Reise plant sie, mit einem größeren Wohnwagen und möglicherweise einem anderen Zugfahrzeug, wie dem Audi Q6 e-tron, unterwegs zu sein. „Ich möchte das noch einmal ausprobieren, diesmal mit einem größeren Gespann, und bin gespannt, wie sich das dann verhält.“ Nun aber genug der Vorworte, lasst uns direkt in das Gespräch einsteigen!

Driving Kia's EV6 SUV today. The Kia EV6 comes in four models. I drove the EV6GT-line dual motor all-wheel-drive at $87,590 – powered by a 77.4kWh battery theGT-line with two electric motors and weighing 100 kilos heavier to the rear drivemodels provides 239kW and 605Nm of torque. Delivering a driving range of484km which I found most accurate with a mix of urban and country driving.Energy consumption varied and ran from around 15kWh/100km to18.5kWh/100km. Charging, on a standard 7kW home charger around 71/2 hours,on a 350kW fast charger if you can find one not in use around 20 minutes. The KiaEV6 styling a standout, sharp edge styling that gives it a premium feel and in myeyes it's the best-looking EV on the market. Large well shod 20-inch alloy wheelsare tucked right into the body's corners provide a very roomy interior with greatseats. Despite an impressive dash and instrumentation, the interior is somewhatbland in terms of finishes. Premium specified however with all the driving aidsand safety elements and Kia's 7-year/unlimited kilometre warranty. The driveexperience of the Kia EV6 GT-line will impress most drivers. More drive details inmy next segment. I'm David BerthonSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ford slår på tromme for en moderne Ford Capri, men det er ikke nødvendigvis nogen god idé, mener eksperterne i denne uges Bilradio. Ford Motor Company står med en delikat udfordring: Hvordan ærer man sin historie uden at miste autenticiteten? Ford lancerer nu en elektrisk udgave af deres klassiker, Ford Capri – en model, der oprindeligt legemliggjorde frihed, fart og ren køreglæde i 70'erne. Spørgsmålet er dog, om en stor elektrisk familiebil kan leve op til den ikoniske arv, eller om Ford blot rider med på elektrificeringsbølgen uden respekt for fortiden. I ugens Bilradio dykker to bileksperter ned i denne genfødte model og udforsker, om Fords valg af design og teknologi kan genskabe den oprindelige Capris magi. Samtidig gennemgår de priserne på Kia EV6, Euro-NCAP's seneste undersøgelse af assistentsystemer og fortæller om den kommende Hyundai Ioniq 9. De ser også frem mod kåringen af Årets Firmabil. Der bliver desuden tid til en historie om Volkswagens nye Scout og en test af Mini Countryman, som appellerer til den moderne storbyboer. Til sidst runder Bilradio af med lytterspørgsmål.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Business Insider dives deep into this obsession by analyzing 1.7 million listings on CarGurus to reveal surprising trends.America has the most cars per capita, and it defines much of our culture.Data shows that car choices reflect identity, financial status, and even political leanings.For instance: The top five most Democratic vehicles are the Toyota Prius, Audi A4, Kia EV6, Acura TL, and Jeep Commander. Meanwhile, the top five most Republican vehicles are the Jeep Wrangler, Jeep Gladiator, Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Ford F-150, and Honda Odyssey.The Business Insider series also covers how car color has changed over the years with over 80% of cars now being black, white or gray and what are the most popular makes and models in different regions, A recent analysis by Edmunds reveals a sharp increase in negative equity among U.S. car buyers, with more people finding themselves upside down on their car loans than ever before.In Q3 2024, 24.2% of all vehicle trade-ins had negative equity, up from 18.5% of Q3 2023, with the average owed amount of $6,458 up from $5,808 in Q3 2023.Over 22% of consumers with negative equity are underwater by more than $10,000, with 7.5% owing $15,000 or more.The problem spans all vehicle types, with midsize SUVs (19.5%), compact SUVs (17.3%), and large trucks (10.3%) making up the largest share of trade-ins with negative equity."It's easy to assume that only specific consumers trading in higher-ticket luxury vehicles are the ones underwater on their car loans, but the reality is that this is a problem across the board," said Ivan Drury, Edmunds' director of insights.Sam's Club is introducing a groundbreaking, all-digital shopping experience with its newest store in Grapevine, Texas.

Shoot us a Text.We are rounding down a week of east coast travel here on the last day of the NAMAD Annual Membership Meeting. Today we are looking at Ford's recently announced change in their EV plans and how EVs may not be slowing down as much as some sources may say.Show Notes with links:Ford is adjusting its electrification plans, canceling its long-planned three-row electric crossovers and delaying the next-generation full-size electric pickup by 18 months. The automaker will now focus on a family of hybrid three-row crossovers.Ford's changes could result in up to $1.9 billion in costs, including a $400 million noncash charge related to the cancellation of the crossover.CFO John Lawler: "We looked where the segment was evolving, the amount of competition, the customer needs, and then, the size of the battery that needs to go in a pure EV, the cost structure, the pricing, We could not put together a vehicle that met our requirements to be profitable in the first 12 months of launch."The next-gen full-size electric pickup's launch has been pushed to late 2027.Moving forward, Lawler said EVs would represent roughly 30 percent of Ford's capital expenditure, down from a planned 40 percent.Despite talks of an EV slowdown, the U.S. market saw record-breaking sales in Q2 2024, with 18 electric models surpassing 5,000 units sold. Tesla, Ford, and Hyundai lead, but newcomers are gaining ground.EV sales hit a record 320,463 units in Q2, up 11% from last year and 23% from Q1.The 18 models that sold 5K units: Tesla Model Y, Model 3, Model X and Cybertruck; Ford Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning; Hyundai IONIQ 5; Toyota bZ4X; Rivian R1S; Cadillac Lyriq; BMW i4; Kia EV6, EV9, and Niro; Chevrolet Blazer EV; Volkswagen ID.4; Mercedes EQE; and Nissan Ariya.As we previously reported, Tesla's market share dipped below 50% for the first time, now at 49.7%, and Hyundai Motor Group (including Kia and Genesis) claimed 10% of the U.S. EV market, outperforming Ford (7.4%) and GM (6.3%)Stephanie Valdez Streaty, Cox Automotive Industry Insights Director said: “Automakers that deliver the right product at the right price and offer an excellent consumer experience will lead the way in EV adoption.”Chick-Fil-A is stepping into the entertainment arena with plans to launch its own streaming service, focusing on family-friendly content.

Driving Ford's Mustang Mach-E electric SUV – by using the iconic Mustang name Ford wanted to position their first electric offering, and apart from the prominent badge on the nose there is no other likeness. The Ford Mustang Mach-E arrived here mid last year, but has been price reduced twice, and despite the reductions it's been slow to move since just 388 sold July year to date – I tested the mid- spec rear drive Premium Mach-E at $79,990 around $88,700 on road – rather expensive, the Tesla Model Y, Hyundai IONIQ 5, Polestar 2 and Kia EV6 all undercutting it on price. Having said that I found it an impressive EV in a coupe style body with interesting push button door latches, highly spec'd with a panoramic sunroof, power tailgate, a fabulous 15.5-inch touchscreen and top- notch artificial leather power seats. The driving experience hard to fault although the ride can at times be a little harsh due to the large 91 kWh battery – all up- weight topping 2098 kilos. But still offering a 0 to 100 km time of 6.2 seconds – The Ford Mustang Mach-E premium not a sporty SUV, certainly competent, best described as a very comfortable, quiet cruiser with relaxed steering but by no means a Mustang.

High Drama at the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries with Tesla, Polestar and VW all up in arms against the position the industry body is taking on the Government's new EV policy. Plus we speak to the owner of a BYD Atto 3 about the experience, choice and overall EV situation And what's in the garage this week - a KIA EV6 and something with a special BOOST button.

Just another EV Monday! The weekend was a bit light for automotive news, but GM is bringing back the Blazer EV, Rivian handed out Steve Jobs style surprises, and Marques Brownlee threw shade on the Ocean.General Motors reignites the electric vehicle (EV) market by resuming Chevrolet Blazer EV sales at reduced prices, addressing past software glitches with significant updates and improvements.GM halted Chevrolet Blazer EV sales in December due to infotainment and fast charging issues, but now confidently resumes with software enhancements and a price cut.The updates include new features like customizable ambient lighting and a battery percentage display, with existing owners needing dealership visits for software upgrades.Despite not pinpointing a singular fault, GM emphasizes improved quality testing and software processes to avoid future issues.Price reductions across various Blazer EV trims aim to boost sales, alongside eligibility for a $7,500 federal tax credit.EV startup Fisker faces backlash after a failed attempt to mitigate criticism from tech reviewer Marques Brownlee, exposing deeper financial woes.Marques Brownlee's scathing review of Fisker's Ocean SUV has gone viral, amassing over 4.3 million views for highlighting numerous design and software issues.Brownlee originally asked Fisker for a vehicle, but they kept delaying, resulting in the Youtuber borrowing a vehicle from J&S Mitsubishi.The EV maker asked Brownlee to wait until the car could receive the 2.0 software update, but he declined."It's not really in my policy to wait on promised future software updates,'" Brownlee said in the YouTube video. "I'm going to review the car that's out now, that real buyers are actually living with." The title of the video is “This is the Worst Car I've Ever Reviewed.”A supposed senior Fisker engineer's call to the dealership loaning Brownlee the car backfired, with a recording by the dealership revealing software problems persist post-update, attracting 3.6+ million views on TikTok.Amidst the PR disaster, Fisker announces financial instability, casting doubt on the company's future viability.Channeling their inner Steve Jobs, Rivian had “one more thing” during its R2 reveal event. The EV maker introduced the R3 and R3X, a sportier and slightly shorter electric SUV than the R2, catching the audience by surprise. Rivian's approach to the R3 showcases a strategic expansion of its electric vehicle lineup, emphasizing design, performance, and affordability.The R3 aims to offer a more compact package than the R2, targeting a lower price point than the $45K R2, though specifics were not immediately disclosed.With a sleek design featuring sloping rear ends, the R3 and R3X promise over 300 miles of range and rapid acceleration, positioning them as direct competitors to Korean EVs like the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email ASOTU Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/automotivestateoftheunion

This episode is a great discussion coming from a question submitted by our producer Jake: what is the modern equivalent of the Mercedes W201 190E? == This episode of “The Carmudgeon Show” is presented by Valentine One Radar Locator: Find radar before it finds you! https://bit.ly/Valentine1_Hagerty Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-ICONS == Jason and Derek try to come up with a list of 5 Cars That Are Significant Like the W201 was.  The first question is what made that old Mercedes so special. The criteria are: Technical Innovation. Moving Into a New Market. Meaningful Change to the Industry. Democratizing Features Previously Not Part of a Segment With bonus points for: Motorsport Heritage Design Then, it becomes so much more. And possibly includes the Hyundai/Kia triplets: Hyundai Ioniq 5, Genesis GV60, and Kia EV6. The 1992 Toyota Camry. The answer lies somewhere between Tesla's Model 3, the Porsche Cayenne, the Toyota Prius, and the Lexus LS400.  === Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

[As hosts Jack Nerad and Chris Teague take Labor Day weekend off, this is the repeat of a popular episode that originally aired in July. Jack and Chris will be back with an all-new episode next week.] While many claim the future is electric, statistics indicate the present day is ICE. Further evidence of that came this week with reports that inventories of newly introduced electric vehicles are piling up on dealer lots and in manufacturer inventories. While this is a cloud for many in the industry, it might represent a silver lining for all those who have been hankering for an electric vehicle, but either couldn't find one at all or were unwilling to pay well beyond the suggested list price to get one. So this could be an excellent time to buy a Ford F-150 Lightning pickup truck, a Ford Mustang Mach-E crossover, a Kia EV6 small utility, a Lucid Air luxury sedan, or a Cadillac Lyriq SUV, among many others. While, according to Experian data, EV registrations rose 68 percent in the January-to-May timeframe, some vehicles that were in short supply last year are much more available right now. EVs have risen from four percent market share in 2022 to seven percent share now, but the influx of new electric models could be flooding the marketplace with more choices than carbuyers can process. How do Americans feel about electric cars? A lot of people have opinions, but J.D. Power has data from real consumers. And our special guest this week, Stewart Stropp, executive director of EV intelligence at J.D. Power will tell all about it in his interview with Host Jack Nerad. In the road test segment, Host Jack Nerad will evaluate the pluses and minuses of the Infiniti QX80 full-size luxury SUV. The QX80 isn't the freshest vehicle in the segment, but it checks most of the boxes a luxury SUV needs to check. And compared to others in the class, it could be an excellent buy. Co-Host Chris Teague will test another three-row SUV this week, the 2023 Hyundai Palisade. The likable midsize crossover SUV has been a popular choice since its introduction as a 2021 model, and it's even better for 2023. Self-driving cars have always seemed to be about 10 years away, but we might be getting closer if the National Highway Traffic Administration rules favorably on a request from General Motors. The Detroit-based automaker has asked to be allowed to test its self-driving technology on public roads, and now it is waiting for an answer. NHTSA says that a ruling might be forthcoming soon, and we'll have the details. Fans of big SUVs — and that's most Americans — will be happy to learn that Volvo has just introduced a battery-electric three-row, seven-seat vehicle. We'll give you the details on the 2024 Volvo EX90 later in this segment. All that and much, much more will be there for you in this edition of America on the Road. America on the Road is brought to you by Driving Today.com, Mercury Insurance, YourTestDriver.com, and EMLandsea.com , the publisher of Nerad's latest book, Dance in the Dark, which is available HERE on Amazon.com

The Kia EV6's been around for a couple of years, with its debut taking place a couple of years ago. In fact, we've already taken the EV6 through the Quick Spin wringer a year ago. Well, if the base-power EV6 doesn't cut the mustard, Kia's has a battery-electric hot rod in its stable. Dubbed the Kia EV6 GT, this GT variant does share most of the sheet metal with its more pedestrian sibling but does have different front and rear fascias. More importantly, the EV6 GT sends 577 hp to the wheels with a pair of electric motors. This dual-motor GT comes standard with all-wheel drive because of the front- and rear-mounted electric motors. The EV6 GT shares the battery with its less powerful counterpart, which does affect your real-world range, and offers the least amount of range in the lineup. Though, the brutal acceleration might make up for the lack of range. On this episode of Quick Spin, Autoweek's executive editor Tom Murphy hops behind the wheel of this Kia and puts it through its paces. Murphy takes you on a tour of the EV6 GT and highlights some of his favorite features before taking you along on a live drive review. Adding to that, Murphy chats with host Wesley Wren about the 2023 Kia EV6 GT, its performance and its space in the market. Closing the show, the pair breakdown what makes the EV6 GT special.

Competing with Tesla Model Y, Mustang Mach-E, Kia EV6, Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Volkswagen ID.4, Ariya has something they lack- e-4ORCE. It's not an algebra formula. The dual-motor, all-wheel drive e-4ORCE system uses torque vectoring, rear-wheel recuperation independent from the front, and a bunch of other dynamics to tame body movements. It offers a more comfortable ride quality and helps reduce motion sickness in passengers too. Tom Voelk travels to Sonoma County in California to drive an AWD Ariya Platinum+ and check out the new Pro Pilot Assist 2.0 handsfree driving system. Here's a link to the “e-4ORCE Explained” video- https://youtu.be/NlQMXqgWzBI

Will Kelly be on brand with a car baby birth this year? She sure hopes not.  The gals kick off the first episode of 2023, talking about birth anxiety and how much Kelly hates taking time off. Kelly drops another baby name clue and stresses how very much this baby's name is NOT Earl. Lizz recaps her favorite Christmas gifts from Mattie and mom while Kelly is obsessed with her new grape cutter.  Today's episode is sponsored by Rocket Money, formerly known as Truebill. This personal finance app finds and cancels unwanted subscriptions, monitors spending, and helps you lower your bills—all in one, easy-to-use place. Going into 2023, if one of your goals is to save money or become more financially savvy, check out Rocket Money. → Download the Rocket Money app at rocketmoney.com/carpool   The millennial word of the day today turns into a millennial trend with a Gen Z twist — shot books on Canva. Kelly and Lizz tangent into a slightly frenzied mom chat about how their kids will ever look back on family photos when they're all stuck in the cloud.  Kelly's driveway dump includes a confession about coffee that's ONLY $7.75. The gals break down listener feedback on what makes a car affordable, rave about their at-home makeup class, and note that rounding out the holidays with a December 26th meal plan will be a non-negotiable next year. To wrap up the segment, Kelly and Lizz determine if they are nano, micro, mid-tier, or macro influencers, and Kelly chooses her scent of the year.  Chomps beef sticks make an appearance on today's taste drive, and both gals agree — they're tasty Slim Jims without all the extra grease and gross ingredients.  In industry news, five cars that shook up the auto industry in 2022 include the F-150 Lightning, Corvette Z06, and Kia EV6, and used car prices are finally dropping in 2023.  Listeners are asking for advice, and Kelly and Lizz are here to give their unqualified opinions. The gals answer questions about locking seat belts, recommend the resqme®, and share how they balance spending time with family and getting time alone with their husbands and kids.  For a special night when you want to ditch the drive-through or really ditch going out entirely, try Kelly and Lizz's favorite feels-like-a-restaurant meal of steaks, baked potatoes, all the fixings, and Car Mom broccoli. → To share your ditch the drive-through recipe with us, call (959) CAR-POOL and leave us a message! → Want our advice on literally anything?

We also talk our long-term Kia EV6

The all-electric Genesis GV60 is the brand's first electric vehicle built on a dedicated EV architecture. It has a completely different vibe than platform sharing Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6. Quick, quiet, nimble and packed with tech features, the Performance will get you where you're going in unique Genesis style (that not everyone's going to love). Tom tests a Performance model in Uyuni White and a Torrent Navy interior that retails for $69,560… if you can even buy it where you live. It's only available in Arizona, California, Connecticut, New Jersey, Nevada, New York, Utah and Washington. Oh, and that Chrystal Sphere!
