POPULARITY
The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Shoot us a Text.With a new week comes the anticipation of being able to serve people, both inside and outside of the automotive industry. Today, we'll be talking about a $1B investment in the EV supply chain, the best lease deals out there right now, and Gen Z taking tech jobs from Millennials.Show Notes with links:Monroe Capital is launching a $1 billion fund, backed by federal government programs, to support small auto suppliers in the shift to electric vehicles. This move aims to strengthen U.S. supply chains and competitiveness.The Drive Forward Fund will be backed by government-guaranteed lending via a Small Business Administration license.The U.S. Treasury also announced a $9.1 million grant to help Michigan suppliers secure EV financing.New U.S. tariffs and EV tax credit rules are encouraging a shift in supply chains away from China.“This fund will catalyze growth and innovation within America's automotive supply chain,” said Monroe CEO Ted Koenig.September 2024 is packed with unbeatable lease deals on electric vehicles, making it the perfect time to help customers make the switch to an EV. Here are some of the top offers:Hyundai IONIQ 5: $159/month for 24 months with $3,999 due.Hyundai IONIQ 6: $239/month for 24 months with $3,999 due.Tesla Model 3: $299/month (or $160/month after incentives).Kia Niro EV: $169/month for 24 months with $3,999 due.Chevrolet Equinox EV: $239/month for 24 months with $3,169 due.Toyota bZ4x: $239/month for 36 months with $2,999 due.VinFast VF8: $199/month for 36 months with $199 due.With tech jobs increasingly favoring younger applicants, Millennials—now in their 30s and early 40s—are facing growing competition from Gen Z as employers continue to celebrate youth over experience, prioritizing fresh perspectives, fast adaptability and cultural fit. New federal data reveals the number of workers under 25 in the US tech workforce grew by 9% annually from 2014-2022, surpassing industry averages.Nearly 41% of tech workers are aged 25 to 39, compared to 33% in the overall workforce.Workers over 40 are increasingly sidelined, despite laws protecting against ageism since 1967.Age discrimination complaints in tech account for 20% of all EEOC filings.“Gen X built the tech industry. There's a ton of value there,” says John Rizzo, reflecting on his struggle to find work at 60.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
Tu and Lei begin this podcast with a quick download of the EU tariffs, who was slapped with what and who the winners are. They also take a step back to discuss who currently exports the most to the EU and how the tariffs may affect their quantities. They then move over to the rumored retaliation from the Chinese govt and who would feel free brunt of those retaliatory measures. Lei then moves the conversation over to Tu's EV car rental for his trip to California and Tu talks in details about the good, the bad and the ugly about his few days driving a Kia Niro EV. They close the podcast with a discussion on how the tariffs, both exporting to AND from, could affect VW Group's diverse set of brands, manufacturing bases and ultimately their long-term competitiveness.
Danmarks mest populære bil, Tesla Model Y, står foran en spændende tid. Selvom de endelige tal for det globale bilsalg endnu ikke er landet, peger alt mod, at modellen også vil indtage toppositionen på verdensplan. Med så markant en status følger naturligvis en intens interesse, og nu summer rygtebørsen omkring en væsentlig opdatering af bilen.Ifølge flere anonyme kilder fra Tesla's inderkreds, er der en betragtelig opgradering af Model Y på tegnebrættet, et projekt med det klingende navn "Project Juniper". Informationerne er dog spredte – nogle kilder forudser, at produktionen vil begynde allerede til sommer, mens andre holder en mere forsigtig linje og peger mod årets slutning. Den nøjagtige tidsplan er dog stadig et mysterium. Og i virkeligheden er det hele spekulationer.Det spændende emne bliver grundigt vendt og drejet i denne uges Bilradio, hvor eksperterne Jan Lang og værten Christian Schacht dykker ned i de mulige konsekvenser for Model Y's salg i det nye år. Spørgsmålet om, hvorvidt konkurrenterne kan indhente det forsømte, er også på dagsordenen.Udover de store potentielle nyheder om Tesla, kaster Bilradio også et blik på de mange attraktive tilbud på nye biler, som allerede er skudt i gang her i årets start.Fra en overraskende prisvenlig elbil fra BMW, til store besparelser hos Kia, og til dem med en forkærlighed for de klassiske minibiler med benzinmotor – der er masser af spændende indhold at se frem til i denne uges podcast.05:15-11:22 Holdbarhed af elbilens batteri i kulde11:30-17:09 BMW iX1 eDrive20 17:10-29:24 Bilsalget i 2023 29:30-32:57 Klassiske slagtilbud på benzinbiler 32:58-37:51 Kia EV9 - ny basisudgave 37:58-43:14 Kia Niro EV januartilbud 43:24-45:50 Teslas salgsrekord i 2023 45:51-54:24 Tesla Model Y (2024) – Projekt Juniper 54:24-59:44 Lytterspørgsmål
The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Wednesday and wheels up for us as we delve deep into Colorado's controversial proposal to charge owners of large, pedestrian-unfriendly vehicles. We also unpack the surge of affordable EV leases under $400 a month and the impact of the expanded UAW strike on GM and Stellantis.Not long after GM announced their Q3 earnings the UAW has initiated a strike at General Motors' high-profit SUV plant in Texas, impacting the production of key models and deepening the financial blow to the Detroit 35,000 workers at GM's Arlington Assembly in Texas were ordered to strike by UAW President Shawn Fain. This plant manufactures the Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon, and Cadillac Escalade.UAW President Shawn Fain said "Another record quarter, another record year. As we've said for months, record profits equal record contracts. It's time GM workers, and the whole working class, get their fair share."GM responded by expressing disappointment in the UAW's decision, highlighting that they had increased their previous proposal's value to the union by 25% just last week.The UAW's strike expansion also affected Stellantis' profitable Sterling Heights Assembly in Michigan yesterday, which produces Ram 1500 pickups.A proposed bill in Colorado seeks to introduce a “vulnerable road user protection registration fee” for heavier vehicles, with the intent to funnel the revenue into pedestrian and bike safety projects.The fee aims to generate around $20 million annually. However, even a 9,000-lb vehicle like the Hummer EV would only be subjected to an extra fee of $29.90 each year. The fee will only be charged Colorado's 12 most populated counties, where most pedestrian and bicycle accidents occur.State Senator Lisa Cutter said that “Data shows us that higher vehicle weights directly correlate with vulnerable road user deaths. It just makes sense to tie funding to that."Electric vehicles won't be exemptrom the registration fee.In 2024, Washington D.C. will raise registration fees based on weight: from $155 to $500 for over 6k lbs, from $155 to $250 for over 5k lbs, and from $115 to $175 for 3500-5k lbsA range of automakers are now offering electric vehicle leases for under $400 a month, making EVs more accessible to the average consumer and ramping up competition in the market.Multiple automakers including Nissan, Hyundai, and Kia are offering leases for electric vehicles like the 2023 Nissan LEAF, Hyundai Ioniq 6, and Kia Niro EV for under $400 per month.Some buyers are utilizing a "1-day lease" The lease tax "loophole" allows all vehicles to access benefits, irrespective of the $7,500 IRA tax credit income eligibility. Lease it for one day, they buy out the lease.

Volkswagen kommer med en ny generation av storsäljarna Tiguan och Passat. Vi var med på premiären och berättar om nyheterna. Långteststallets yngsta biltestare undersöker barnsäkerheten i Kia Niro EV, Mazda CX-60, Mercedes-Benz T-klass, Skoda Fabia och Toyota Corolla Cross. Det visar sig att sikten kan vara ett allvarligt problem. Till exempel kan barn som sitter framför fronten på Mazda CX-60 skönjas först på drygt fyra meters håll. Sitter de närmare ser man dem inte från förarplats! Och apropå Mazda CX-60 har tillverkaren nu själva testat den utifrån Vi Bilägares undanmanöverprov och fått samma resultat – under vissa omständigheter kränger bilen av däcket på vänster framhjul. Letar du elbil med lång räckvidd? I testet har vi låtit uppdaterade Polestar 2 drabba samman med BMW i4, Hyundai Ioniq 6 och Nio ET5. Den ena är bäst, den andra är billigast, den tredje är snabbast och den fjärde är roligast!
Die aktuellen Automobilkurznachrichten mit Michael Weyland Thema heute: Die Fahrweise entscheidet: Effizientes Stromern in der Stadt, auf der Autobahn und über Land Am Verbrauch zu sparen ist nicht nur Thema bei Fahrzeugen mit Verbrennungsmotor, sondern auch bei Elektroautos. Durch eine effiziente Fahrweise lässt sich Strom sparen. Am Beispiel des Kia Niro EV, der für Mitglieder des Clubs via Leasing auf der Plattform ADAC Fahrzeugwelt verfügbar ist, wurde effizientes Fahren in der Praxis erprobt. Laut einer Studie der ADAC SE beträgt der durchschnittliche Reichweitenwunsch derjenigen, die sich ein E-Auto anschaffen wollen, 440 Kilometer bei vollgeladener Batterie. Kia gibt für den Niro EV die WLTP-Normreichweite von 460 Kilometern an. In städtischen Verkehrsszenarien Die Herstellerangaben (WLTP) sind im realen Fahrbetrieb über alle Verkehrswege hinweg (Autobahn, Landstraße, Stadt) in der Regel kaum zu erreichen. Aber: Insbesondere im Stadtverkehr kann die WLTP-Reichweite nicht nur erlangt, sondern sogar übertroffen werden. Städtische Verkehrsszenarien erfordern jedoch eine besondere Fahrweise, um die Reichweite des Elektrofahrzeugs zu optimieren. So hilft etwa eine behutsame Beschleunigung, den Energieverbrauch zu reduzieren. Gerade im Stop-and-Go-Verkehr ist vorausschauendes Fahren von Vorteil. Durch rechtzeitiges Ausrollen des Fahrzeugs wird die Bewegungsenergie genutzt und Antriebsenergie eingespart. Im Stadtverkehr zahlt sich außerdem die Rekuperation besonders aus. Beim Heranfahren an Ampeln oder im stockenden Verkehr wird kinetische in elektrische Energie umgewandelt, um die Batterie aufzuladen. Wenn der Fahrer mit seinem E-Auto gut vertraut ist, gehört die Nutzung verschiedener Rekuperationsstufen zur individuellen Fahrweise. Der Kia Niro EV beispielsweise hat vier, wählbar über Paddles am Lenkrad. „Mitschwimmen“ auf der Autobahn Effizientes und vorausschauendes Fahren trägt auch auf der Autobahn zur Maximierung der Reichweite bei. „Mitschwimmen“ im Verkehrsfluss bedeutet eine Anpassung an die Geschwindigkeit der anderen Verkehrsteilnehmer, und zwar so, dass nicht viele Überhol- oder Bremsmanöver nötig sind. Der Tempomat hilft, eine konstante Geschwindigkeit zu halten und so den Energieverbrauch zu kontrollieren. Auch das sogenannte „Segeln“ kann Energienutzen bringen: Ähnlich wie beim Auskuppeln bei einem Verbrennungsmotor rollt das Fahrzeug und schont so den Stromvorrat. Was auf der Autobahn weniger rekuperiert wird, kann in vielen Fällen weiter gerollt werden. Außerdem hilft auf der Autobahn ein gemäßigtes Tempo in Sachen Energie und Reichweite.

Avsnitt 316 Vi talar om Linus Lundqvists framgångar i IndyCar, om rödmålade cykelgator som ska höja säkerheten och sommarens elbilsreor. Amfibiebilar, är det lösningen när nu snart sagt varje vägstump är översvämmad? Vi har besökt amfibiebilsmässan Amphib 2023 i tyska Traben – Trarbach. Vi rapporterar från sommarens körningar med långtestbilarna Kia Niro EV, Mazda CX-60 och Mercedes T-klass. En hade alldeles för kort räckvidd, en hade alldeles för sömnigt temperament och en klarade sommarens utflykter alldeles utmärkt! Är husvagn för krångligt och husbil för dyr? Vi har testat alternativet tältvagn. En lösning som passar bra för elbilar men också har sina nackdelar. Medverkande: Fredrik Diits Vikström, Nils Svärd och Tommy Wahlström.
The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Welcome to Wednesday as we shift gears into the last week of the month. Today, we're talking about Vinfast's continued market climb, the impact of EVs on new car affordability and how malls are back.Show Notes with links:Just when we thought the valuation rollercoaster couldn't get any more wild, VinFast's shares stunned the market, more than doubling since their Wall Street debut. The spike comes on the heels of an announcement about South Korea's Star Group Industrial's plans for a new Vietnamese factory.After its introduction to the market at $22 a share last week, the stock price reached $46.98, settling at $36.72 by market close. Marking a whopping $95 Billion Dollar valuationVinFast's stock was prominently featured on Stocktwits' "Trending" list on Tuesday, indicating heightened interest from individual investors.A new study reveals a potentially surprising hero in the affordability challenge: EV leasing.New research from Energy Innovation shows drivers can save over $400 monthly compared to traditional vehicles, thanks to government incentives and reduced fueling and maintenance costs. For instance, leasing a Tesla Model Y is around $425 cheaper per month than leasing a gasoline-fueled BMW X4. Similarly, leasing a Kia Niro EV saves about $367 per month compared to its gasoline version.The $7500 IRA tax credit is the major contributor to lower payments and taxes paidEven when the tax credit becomes unavailable in the future, leasing an EV is projected to remain a cost-effective choice. This is because EVs generally have lower fueling and maintenance expenses compared to gasoline vehicles. If gasoline prices rise, the cost advantage of EVs would further increase.If you thought malls are dying, think again. Contrary to popular belief, US malls are adapting, not dying, with many seeing higher occupancy and crowds than pre-pandemic.Top-tier malls saw a 12% increase in foot traffic in 2022 compared to 2019, with an average leasing rate above 95%.E-commerce growth complements brick-and-mortar retail; omnichannel marketing drives mall growth.Gen Z, a crucial market segment, is reviving the mall experience, valuing sustainability and in-store luxury experiences.The mall's evolution focuses on community, experience, and social aspects, with increased experiential tenants and emphasis on communal spaces.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

Kia has expanded its electrical lineup in Malaysia with the recent launch of the Kia Niro EV. This will be Kia's second all-electric release since the launch of the Kia EV6 last year. Overall, the Kia Niro EV does tick some of the boxes based on design, specs, and features, however, the price for it is quite a drawback. Is it overpriced? Is there a better EV choice within this price range? In today's episode of Let's Talk About, Alex and Amin share their thoughts on the Kia Niro EV, especially, if they agree that this EV is overpriced.

David and Jo Lau discuss the five phases of customer experience with their 2022 Kia Niro EV (Encounter, Decision, Purchase, Initial use, and Longitudinal use). Vehicle purchases are often a negotiation of two or more people's preferences and needs in domestic situations, and we are delighted to have talked with the Lau family about their customer journey. The human-machine interfaces (HMI) in the cockpit are the simple and effective designs we're used to seeing from Hyundai-Kia vehicles, and Tim was most impressed with the EV charging indicators on top of the dashboard that face through the windshield: three aqua blue lights convey charge status at a glance, without anyone having to pull out a smart phone. The driving features a tight suspension with enough torque to avoid trouble on the highways. David and Jo share their cost per mile with us as well, which is pleasantly low at current electric rates in their town. Range anxiety is a very real thing but for shorter distances, a BEV is suiting them fine. The Laus are quite pleased with all customer experience phases except Purchase. Listen for an amusingly exasperating story about a tired old sales technique that was attempted on them, but they successfully resisted! https://www.kia.com/us/en/niro-ev Our Mazda Miata car club website is here if you would like to join us! http://www.realitydistortionfield.com/mimiata/

In today's episode, which was actually recorded after episode 53, Charlie and Chris talk about their undying love for the Pathfinder Wilderness. I mean TrailSport. I mean Timberline. I mean, the 2023 Nissan Pathfinder Rock Creek. It's fine, but they'd prefer it as an Xterra. They also wrap up their thoughts on the first Genesis SUV, the GV80, which is quite good, but quite good doesn't cut it in the luxury segment. What does cut it is very good, and that's how they'd describe the Audi SQ7 that just arrived at DM HQ. Thanks, Lisa. And of course Charlie is excited about the all-new Kia Niro EV as well.

The second-generation Kia Niro can be had as a fully electric vehicle with a solid range of 253 miles. It's got style to put a smile on your face when walking up to it. And it's a practical hatchback (though the Kia marketing team wants you to see it as an SUV). But no car is perfect and Niro is up against cars that charge faster and cost less. Tom Voelk checks out a top trim Wave model just outside of San Diego, CA and finds it to be quiet and comfortable.

Welcome to *almost* the last day of November as we talk about leaked plans to revamp Tesla's Model 3, one F150 Lightning user's experience with a ‘bricked' truck, and is that app ‘social media' or ‘entertainment'?According to a Reuters exclusive, Tesla is working on the first revamp to their Model 3 sedan that includes an exterior update.Codenamed “Project Highland” one of the primary objectives is to remove unnecessary parts from the interior in order to focus on high value areas (like the display) and reduce production costs"Over and over, we found parts that are not needed. They were put in there just in case or by mistake. We eliminated so many parts from a car that did nothing," Musk said in an interview at a Baron Funds conference earlier in the month.Visible changes are a part of an effort to bring more ‘newness' to the vehicle as the market is flooded with competing vehiclesTesla has the most profitable EV on the market by far at $9500 per vehicle as contrasted with about $1300 for ToyotaEV enthusiast and Ford F150 Lightning owner Eric Roe (also owns a Kia Niro EV) tweeted that he plugged his truck into an Electrify America station, and heard a loud pop which was followed by a bricked truckHe followed up the tweet with details of being on a family vacation with his 2 dogs 1000 miles from home and posted pics of his truck on a flatbed which wouldn't even shift into neutral and had to be dragged onto the tow truckEmma Bergg, Global Director, Electric Vehicles & BlueOval City Comms for Ford Motor Company reached out right in the twitter feed and both Ford and Electrify America are said to have engineers on the incident to determine the causeThe twitter feed is full of user feedback on which is to blameNew tech, new problemsIs social media becoming less ‘social' and more ‘media'. Platforms like Tiktok are counting on it. Leroyson Figueira, a senior creative director at London-based marketing agency 160over90 explains: “It seems that every new digital platform that is not a website nor a utility app is immediately branded a social platform. Without pausing to think, TikTok has also been branded ‘social' by our industry when it is anything but.”“TikTok has film publishers and a film audience. It's not at all like Facebook, Instagram or Twitter. It's more like a TV channel or Netflix than a social platform. But the most democratic channel in history.”Get 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 Share your positive dealer stories: https://www.asotu.com/positivity ASOTU Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/automotivestateoftheunion

The all-new 2023 Kia Niro EV we just tested is the value-priced portion the brand's global effort to become a big-time competitor to Tesla Motors and the world other important electric-vehicle makers. The Kia EV6 is Kia's flagship battery-electric offering, but the Niro EV deserves headlines as the “affordable” entrant in the market. Within a few years, Kia hopes that the majority of its sales will come from battery-electric vehicles. The all-new 2023 Niro EV we tested is the second-generation Niro battery electric, part of a trio of brand-new Niros that also includes a hybrid and a plug-in hybrid. Kia product planner Mark Savino told Host Jack Nerad Kia expects the Niro EV will grab about a quarter of the model's total sales when production is normalized. Expected to be priced at less than $40,000, the Niro EV will be available in Kia dealers in all 50 states. With its single 201-horsepower permanent magnet synchronous electric motor, the Niro offers 188 lb-ft of torque and a 113 MPGe fuel-economy equivalent. According to Kia, range of a full charge for the 2023 Niro EV is 253 miles. When connected to a DC fast charger, the Niro EV can take on an 80 percent charge in less than 45 minutes, excellent charging performance. For those interested in more conventional performance, Co-Host Chris Teague tests the all-new 2023 Acura Integra this week. The name itself is a headline. In years past the Acura Integra was one of the brand's most popular and evocative models. But it was discontinued as Acura pursued an alphabetic naming scheme for its vehicles. Now it is back, and it offers some of the best pieces from the Honda-Acura parts bin. Drawing heavily on the basics of the North American Car of the Year Honda Civic, it features the Civic Si's turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, which can be backed by a CVT (Boo) or a 6-speed manual transmission (Yay!) With 200 horsepower on tap, the new Integra promised to be an exciting platform to wind through the fall colors of New England in October. And Teague will tell us all about it. Our interview guest this week is Jeep Vice President of Product Marketing Tavon Brooks. The occasion for the interview was the introduction and press drive of the new long-wheelbase Grand Wagoneer L and Wagoneerr L. It took place in and around Bozeman, Montana, right at the gates of Yellowstone. In the news, car prices are leveling off, but new problems are on the horizon for car buyers, and we'll detail them for you. And Hyundai has announced a big, bold plan to offer the public “software-defined vehicles.” We'll tell you what that means and discuss how it could affect you in the future. Our guess is you might not like the idea. All that and more coming up in this episode of “America on the Road.”

Nachdem ich im letzten Winter den Kia EV6 gefahren bin, konnte ich dieses Mal im Sommer mit dem neuen Kia Niro EV auf meinen Langstrecken-Test gehen. Was ich dabei alles erlebt habe, lest ihr in meinem Erfahrungsbericht.
Wo kann man heutzutage noch kostenlos sein E-Auto laden? Viele Quellen sind versiegt, nachdem die Preise für Strom so stark in die Höhe geschossen sind. Bei Lidl könnt ihr weiterhin euer E-Auto aufladen und bei uns wurden sogar brandneue Schnelllader an jeder Filiale aufgestellt. Ich hab diese mit dem neuen Kia Niro EV ausprobiert.

Show #1460 Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily, you trusted source of EV information. It's Monday 9th May, it's Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story so you don't have to. GERMANY'S PLUGIN EV SHARE UP TO 24.3% Germany, Europe's largest auto market, saw plugin electric vehicles take 24.3% share in April 2022, up from 22.1% YoY. Overall auto volume was down, by over 21% YoY, and over 40% compared to pre-pandemic seasonal norms. April's combined plugin result comprised 12.3% battery electrics (BEVs), and 12.0% plugin hybrids (PHEVs). Combustion-only powertrains faired worst in terms of volume drop, with diesel sales down almost 30% YoY, and petrol down almost 28%. With current BEV market leader Tesla not having any large scheduled deliveries in April, other marques and models had a chance to shine, with the Fiat 500e coming out on top. The Mercedes EQB stepped up in registered volume by some 5× over the period, seeing a healthy 1,405 units over the February to April period, from 295 previously. The BMW i4 increased 2.7× to 755 units. April BEVs: Fiat 500e, BMW i3, Hyundai Kona, Enyaq, E-Tron, Smart Fortwo, Opel Corsa, ID.4, Zoe, E-208, Merc EQB, Kia Niro EV, Dacia Spring, VW e-Up!, Polestar 2, ID.3, Renault Twingo, Audi Q4 e-tron, IONIQ5 and Kia EV6 Original Source: https://cleantechnica.com/2022/05/06/germanys-plugin-ev-share-up-to-24-3-economic-pressures-mounting/ TOYOTA SAYS BZ4X WON'T FAST CHARGE WHEN COLD From Kyle Conner @ Out of Spec: "Charging times are estimated based on ideal charging conditions. As temperatures decrease below 50 degrees Fahrenheit, charging time will increase significantly. Drive battery level and condition, charger specifications and DC charging more than twice per day also can negatively affect charging time. DC charging may not work on AWD bz4x when the temperature is below 32 degrees Fahrenheit." That's 5 degrees celsius. Original Source: https://pressroom.toyota.com/five-things-to-know-about-the-all-electric-toyota-bz4x/ SPAIN: PLUG-IN CAR SALES MAINTAIN 10% SHARE - plug-in electric car sales in Spain continue to expand at a fast rate. In April, some 6,365 new plug-in cars were registered (up 41% year-over-year), which is 9% of the total. - The average market share of plug-ins in the recent six months stays above 10%, which is a good foundation for the future. With outstanding conditions for solar electricity generation and unleashed production of BEVs (supported by new battery gigafactory investments in the pipeline), Spain has very high potential for electrification. - Stats for the month: BEVs: 1,991 (up 36%, at 2.8% market share) PHEVs: 4,374 (up 43%, at 6.2% market share) Total: 6,365 (up 41%, at 9.0% market share) Original Source : https://insideevs.com/news/584466/spain-plugin-car-sales-april-2022/ 12.5% OF NEW LIGHT-DUTY VEHICLE REGISTRATIONS IN CALIFORNIA WERE PLUG-IN VEHICLES - In California, 12.5% of new light-duty vehicle registrations were plug-in electric vehicles (PEV) in 2021, according to the data released by the Department of Energy (DOE) - Next highest were the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Washington, and Oregon, which each had PEV registrations accounting for more than 7% of new registrations. - Additionally, Californians bought roughly 15,000 more EVs during this quarter than last quarter and Q1 of 2022 EV sales are up by 37%, relative to EV sales at this time last year.The market share of electric vehicles in California jumped to 16.32%.

This momentum continued in the first quarter of 2022, when -- despite all the challenges -- the Chinese NEV market posted a 140 percent year-on-year growth. - On Thursday, the company launched the production of BMW i3, tailormade for the Chinese market, at its new plant, dubbed Lydia, in Shenyang, northeast China.
