We weten nu hoe de Cupra Raval er uit ziet, dat de Honda Insight elektrisch wordt, dat Porsche Cayenne Electric ook als S op de markt komt en we waren bij de introductie van de Mercedes-Benz VLE. Dus daar vertellen we je ook alles over! In EVbijpraten: stijgende brandstofprijzen zorgt ervoor dat 100km afleggen je 20 euro of 1 euro kan kosten. Én we interviewen de Technical Director van Peblar over de ingebouwde MID-meter in een laadpaal en hoe je kunt herkennen of jouw laadpaal geschikt is voor ERE-certificaten. BYD komt met de Blade 2.0 accu tezamen met snelladers die 1.500 kW per connector kunnen geven. Verder hebben we de eerste kilometers afgelegd in de hagelnieuwe BMW iX3. 

25 Jahre ist es her, dass Honda den Insight als erstes Hybridmodell der Marke auf dem europäischen Markt eingeführt hat. Heute sind alle europäischen Volumenmodelle von Honda elektrifiziert, alles andere wäre auch verwunderlich. Natürlich gilt das auch für den Honda Civic e:HEV Advance, den wir uns heute mal etwas genauer anschauen!  Darum geht es diesmal!Es ist ein Update für ein Erfolgsmodell: Gemeint ist der Honda Civic, der seit Anfang Oktober des vergangenen Jahres mit diversen Designüberarbeitungen am Interieur und Exterieur sowie einer erweiterten Serienausstattung auf und über deutsche Straßen rollt. Dabei können sich Fahrer nach wie vor auf die selbstladende Hybridtechnologie e:HEV (Hybrid Electric Vehicle) verlassen, die in allen Modellvarianten serienmäßig an Bord ist.Das Outfit!Was das Erscheinungsbild des Honda Civic e:HEV  angeht, zeigt sich die Fahrzeugfront nun noch schärfer gezeichnet, zudem ist der neu gestaltete Kühlergrill des Civic schwarz umrandet. Für eine noch hochwertigere und sportlichere Optik sorgen neue Verkleidungen an der Front und den vorderen Scheinwerfern. Der Wegfall der separaten Nebelscheinwerfer – sie sind nun in das überarbeitete, hocheffiziente LED-Lichtsystem integriert - und die nun in Wagenfarbe gehaltenen Spoiler am unteren Stoßfänger sorgen ebenfalls für eine optische Aufwertung. Power und Drive!    e:HEV steht bei Honda für einen Vollhybrid-Antrieb, der beim Civic 135 kW (184 PS) beträgt.  Das maximale Drehmoment liegt bei 315 Nm, die Beschleunigung von 0−100 km/h erledigt der Wagen in 7,8 Sekunden, die Spitze erreicht er bei 180 km/h. Dazu sind – je nach Ausstattung - ein kombinierter Kraftstoffverbrauch zwischen 4,7−5,0  l/100 km und CO₂-Emissionen zwischen 108−114  g/km erforderlich. Natürlich haben alle Civic e:HEV vier verschiedene Fahrmodi. Normal, Econ, Sport und Individual.  Die Kosten!Wer sich beim Honda Civic e:HEV für die Modellvariante Elegance entscheidet, bekommt für 37.900 Euro schon eine ausgesprochen ordentliche Serienausstattung geliefert, die unter anderem Honda CONNECT mit Navigation, Honda SENSING Fahrerassistenzsysteme und eine Zweizonen-Klimatisierungsautomatik ebenso enthält wie Rückfahrkamera, Toter-Winkel-Assistent und die Verkehrszeichenerkennung mit intelligentem Geschwindigkeitsassistenten. Die Ausführung Sport liegt bei 38.900 Euro, für die Topausstattung Advance sind 41.400 Euro fällig. Natürlich bei entsprechender Mehrausstattung.Alle Fotos: © 2025 Honda Motor Europe Ltd.    Diesen Beitrag können Sie nachhören oder downloaden unter:

Home EV charging costs are shielded for now by the energy price cap — fixed at 24.67p per kWh for electricity until end of June — but wholesale price rises could push the cap higher from July, making both home wallbox and public charging more expensive.​EUROPEAN FLEETS COULD SAVE €246BN BY 2030A new EY and Eurelectric report finds that fully electrifying Europe's corporate fleets could deliver up to €246 billion in cumulative savings and cut one billion tonnes of CO2 by 2030. However, the authors warn that cheaper running costs alone will not drive mass uptake, calling for coordinated action from manufacturers, policymakers, grid operators and finance providers to tackle high upfront costs, uncertain residual values, and charging infrastructure delays.CUPRA BORN FACELIFT BRINGS SHARP NOSE, SMALL TWEAKSCupra has facelifted the Born with a "shark nose" front end, triangular matrix LED headlights, a continuous rear light strip, and new 235 mm tyres across all five wheel options, while the aerodynamically improved 79 kWh variants now claim around 600 km (373 miles) of WLTP range. A new entry "Born Plus" trim pairs a 58 kWh battery with a 140 kW motor — figures that match Ford's Capri LFP option and strongly suggest a switch to LFP cells from the updated MEB+ platform — though Cupra has not confirmed drivetrain details and appears to be saving that announcement for a related reveal, likely the VW ID.3 facelift later in 2026.FORD EV SALES SINK 71% AFTER LIGHTNING EXITFord's US EV sales collapsed 71% in February 2026 to just 2,122 units, the steepest monthly drop in its EV history, driven by the discontinuation of the F-150 Lightning and the expiry of the federal EV tax credit. Ford's Model e division lost $4.8 billion in 2025 and is forecast to lose another $4–5 billion in 2026, with profitability not expected until 2029; the company has already booked a $19.5 billion writedown and is pivoting to a new ~$30,000 midsize electric pickup it hopes will revive the business by 2027.LUCID PATCHES GRAVITY SOFTWARE AGAINLucid Motors has pushed software update 3.4.4 to the Gravity SUV, targeting AC charging improvements and Drive Assist availability, following a January update that resolved around 95% of earlier software issues — with the car averaging a new update every 24 days since launch. Lucid has closed its online configurator for both the Air and Gravity while it prepares its 2027 model year announcement, and Air owners face a $950 hardware upgrade bill to access the newer UX 3.0 platform already running in the Gravity, due to arrive by autumn 2026.MITSUBISHI READIES LEAF-BASED EV FOR CANADAMitsubishi is preparing its first all-new model since the Eclipse Cross for Canadian dealerships in 2026, built on Nissan's CMF-EV platform and LEAF architecture, with spy shots showing a heavily camouflaged prototype that shares the LEAF's roofline, proportions, and rear hatch panel. Both models will be built side by side at Nissan's Kaminokawa plant in Japan, and Mitsubishi may receive the smaller battery pack to undercut the LEAF on entry price — a strategy that would see Nissan supply the foundations while a cheaper sibling competes for the same buyers.ALPITRONIC UNVEILS HYC400 SERIES 2 CHARGERAlpitronic has launched the HYC400 Series 2, retaining the 400 kW maximum output of its predecessor while upgrading to a 22-inch touchscreen (up from 15.6 inches), second-generation silicon carbide power stacks, and a higher continuous output current of 600 A (up from 500 A). The unit maintains 97.5% charging efficiency but standby power consumption rises significantly from 43 W to under 100 W, and cable options narrow to a single 5-metre length; Alpitronic will sell both generations simultaneously to suit different site requirements.​APTERA SHOWS FIRST VALIDATION-LINE VEHICLE PHOTOAptera Motors has published the first photo of a vehicle off its validation assembly line, marking a milestone for its three-wheeled, solar-assisted EV that claims 400 miles of range from a 44 kWh battery and up to 40 miles of daily solar charging, classified as a motorcycle to bypass certain safety regulations. The launch edition price has risen to $40,000 — a $9,300 increase from prior estimates — though a $28,000 model is planned for the future, and with nearly 50,000 pre-orders and a stated daily capacity of 80–100 vehicles, Aptera claims it could fulfil all orders within 500 days of full production, though the end-of-year delivery timeline remains uncertain.​GEELY TARGETS DEFENDER WITH GALAXY BATTLESHIPGeely plans to launch the Galaxy Battleship in the UK in 2028, a blocky hybrid 4x4 aimed squarely at the Land Rover Defender and Toyota Land Cruiser, with a production design expected to stay 90–95% true to the Galaxy Cruiser concept shown at the 2025 Shanghai Motor Show. Built on the GEA Evo platform with steer- and brake-by-wire, it may use an AI-driven plug-in hybrid system with a stated output of around 858 bhp, and Geely is promising an interior that surpasses the Defender's for luxury — a bold claim for the Chinese brand's first foray into the 4x4 segment.​EU UNVEILS LOCAL-CONTENT RULES FOR CLEAN TECHThe European Commission has unveiled the Industrial Accelerator Act (IAA), tying over €2 trillion in public procurement and subsidies to low-carbon and "Made-in-EU" conditions across sectors including EVs, steel, cement, and wind turbines, with the goal of raising manufacturing's share of EU economic output from 14% to 20% by 2035. China is excluded from the initial trusted-partner list — which includes the UK, Canada, and the US — and foreign investments above €100 million from countries controlling 40%+ of global production would face strict conditions including capped 49% foreign ownership and mandatory technology transfer; BMW and Mercedes oppose the Act over fears of higher costs, while Renault backs it and the text must still clear the European Parliament before becoming law.​

US Labels Anthropic a Supply Chain Risk, BYD Claims 5-Minute Charging Blade Battery, Nvidia Ends Big AI Lab Investments The US government formally designating AI company Anthropic a "supply chain risk," a procurement action that can exclude firms from federal contracts and has drawn criticism from former defense officials and industry groups, with reports some defense contractors are already halting use of Anthropic systems despite its technologies being embedded in AI pipelines. Next, China's BYD unveils a second-generation Blade Battery claiming major gains in range and charging speed, including 10–70% in about five minutes, strong performance after 24 hours at −30°C, and new 1500 kW "plug and play" flash chargers; BYD doesn't sell passenger cars in the US but may have an opening in Canada. Finally, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says Nvidia's days of investing in companies like OpenAI and Anthropic are over, citing OpenAI's expected IPO and noting Nvidia has committed about $30B versus earlier $100B headlines while continuing to profit from chip sales.

Mientras la Fórmula 1 centra el foco en Melbourne, el automovilismo ya ha dejado un golpe sobre la mesa en Estados Unidos. El segundo episodio de la semana del Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 nos cuenta como, en St. Petersburg, Alex Palou inauguró la temporada de IndyCar con una victoria de autoridad que confirma su estatus de referencia absoluta. Lo que hizo Palou. No partió desde la pole, gestionó el primer stint tras McLaughlin y Ericsson, ejecutó un overcut impecable y, una vez en cabeza, impuso un ritmo inalcanzable. Fue un recital estratégico y de consistencia que subraya la dimensión de un piloto que, desde España, no siempre recibe la atención proporcional a su talento. Y, mientras, en Melbourne… En paralelo, el paddock de Fórmula 1 ya se prepara para la primera prueba real. Las nuevas normas técnicas traerán una revolución profunda en los sistemas de frenado, íntimamente ligada al aumento de potencia del MGU-K, que pasará de 120 a 350 kW. Esta mayor capacidad de regeneración alterará el reparto de frenada: el eje trasero dependerá mucho más del sistema eléctrico, permitiendo redimensionar discos y pinzas, e incluso reducir hasta un 20 % el tamaño de ciertos componentes en algunos escenarios. Brembo anticipa un panorama de soluciones divergentes entre equipos. Los discos delanteros crecerán ligeramente en diámetro, mientras que los traseros ofrecerán más opciones de tamaño y grosor. La normativa permitirá mayor libertad en el diseño de pinzas (entre dos y ocho pistones) y exigirá que el sistema trasero pueda generar hasta 2500 Nm sin ayuda del motor eléctrico en determinadas condiciones. Desafíos: técnicos y estratégicos. El equilibrio entre frenado hidráulico y regenerativo será clave, especialmente cuando las baterías estén saturadas y no puedan absorber más energía. El desafío no será solo técnico, sino estratégico: elegir el tamaño y configuración adecuados sin penalizar el peso en un coche que reducirá su masa mínima en 76 kg. Algunos equipos podrían incluso reutilizar discos en varias carreras para ahorrar gramos críticos. La combinación de aerodinámica activa y nuevos neumáticos más estrechos añadirá otra variable a la ecuación. Sea como sea, la temporada de motor está ya a pleno rendimiento: con tres carreras disputadas en la Nascar, la IndyCar recién inaugurada (y de qué manera!) y con la Fórmula 1 a las puertas en Melbourne – amén de MotoGP, que se estrenó también el fin de semana pasado – ya no tendremos tiempo para aburrirnos… si las tensiones mundiales nos dejan.

#352 – Autotelefon-Autorätsel: Autos am Klang erkennen ist kein Problem? Also los, folgende Sounds stehen im Touch-Menü zur Auswahl: Stellar Navigation, Schweben im Weltraum und Time Travel. Noch während die Aufnahme der heutigen Folge läuft, stöpselt sich neben ein frecher Elroq-Fahrer an die gleiche Ladesäule (300 kW) – und zack, schon halbiert sich der fließende Strom von 199 auf 99 kW. Aber es ist nicht alles elektrisch was glänzt; deshalb sprechen wir heute recht ausführlich über den neuen Mazda CX-5 mit seinem 2,5-Liter-Sauger. Und auch noch ein paar Eindrücke zum Togg T10X dürfen nicht fehlen. Hosts: Paul-Janosch Ersing, Michael Blumenstein // Wer lesen kann, ist klar im Vorteil? Zumindest unsere Podcast-Hörer*innen wissen Bescheid und können sich auf https://www.autotelefon-podcast.de auch mit dem geschriebenen Wort auseinandersetzen. Wir nennen es Lektüre. Jede Woche neue Themen zum Nachlesen!

Die aktuellen Automobilkurznachrichten mit Michael Weyland  Thema heute:  Der neue Audi RS 5 im ersten Härtetest in Marokko Nach einer erfolgreichen Weltpremiere hat der Audi RS 5 seine fahrdynamischen Fähigkeiten unter realen Bedingungen beim „First Drive“ in Marokko unter Beweis gestellt. Auf dem Circuit de Marrakech und den kurvenreichen Straßen des Atlasgebirges zeigt der erste Hochleistungs-Plug-in-Hybrid von Audi Sport, was in ihm steckt: kompromisslose Performance, Präzision und eine neue Form elektrifizierter Sportlichkeit. Der Audi RS 5 auf Kurvenjagd Auf dem Circuit de Marrakech entstand ein anspruchsvoller Parcours, der die fahrdynamischen Fähigkeiten des RS 5 gezielt herausgefordert hat. Enge Kurvenfolgen, Slalomsektionen und definierte Driftzonen boten reale und besonders anspruchsvolle Fahrsituationen – mit klarem Fokus auf Agilität, Präzision und Kurvenperformance. Der neue Audi RS 5 kommt erstmalig mit einem Plug‑in‑Hybridantrieb. Die Kombination aus dem 2,9-Liter-V6‑Biturbo und einer 130 Kilowatt leistungsstarken E-Maschine liefert 470 kW (639 PS) Systemleistung und 825 Nm Drehmoment. Besonders bei spontanen Beschleunigungsmanövern wird der kraftvolle elektrische Boost spürbar und sorgt für ein spontanes Ansprechverhalten. Der neue RS 5 fährt sich deutlich präziser und stabiler, aber gleichzeitig dynamisch und leichtfüßig. Vom Rennasphalt ins Atlasgebirge Die Testroute führt dann vom Circuit de Marrakech in die Weiten des Atlasgebirges. Auf den engen Serpentinen spielt der Power-PHEV seine ganze Vielseitigkeit aus und zeigt, wie harmonisch Performance und Komfort zusammenspielen. Das RS‑Sportfahrwerk mit innovativer 2‑Ventil‑Dämpfer‑Technologie beweist hier seine ganze Bandbreite: In tiefer gelegenen Straßenabschnitten mit rauem Asphalt absorbieren die Dämpfer selbst feinste Unebenheiten–in höher gelegenen Passagen mit holprigen Anstiegen und Schotterrinnen reagieren sie unmittelbar auf jede Karosseriebewegung. Der neue RS5, der erste Hochleistungs-Plug-in-Hybrid von Audi Sport hat zudem eine optionale Topspeed von 285 km/h und eine alltagstaugliche elektrische Reichweite von mehr als 80 km im Stadtverkehr.  Das hat natürlich seinen Preis:  Die Der Audi RS 5 Limousine ist ab 106.200 Euro erhältlich. Der Preis für den RS 5 Avant startet bei 107.850 Euro. Alle Fotos: Audi AG       Diesen Beitrag können Sie nachhören oder downloaden unter:

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1283: Oil markets are on edge as global conflict pressures fuel prices and supply chains. Meanwhile, BYD may have cracked the code on five-minute EV charging, and CarMax becomes the first U.S. auto retailer to launch a shopping app inside ChatGPT.Oil markets are on edge after military action involving the U.S. and Israel disrupted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. While automakers aren't seeing immediate shutdowns, rising energy prices and potential shipping reroutes are adding another variable to an already complex year.Roughly 20 million barrels of crude flow through the strait daily, along with LNG, aluminum, steel inputs and key plastics used in vehicle production.Oil briefly jumped nearly 7%, with analysts warning prices could top $100 a barrel if the conflict drags on.Automakers rely heavily on Asia–Europe sea lanes for semiconductors, battery materials and electronics—any expansion into the Red Sea or Suez would be “significantly disruptive.”“It certainly adds risk [for OEMs] and you've got to be thinking about rerouting anything that's going to go through that part of the world,” said AlixPartners' Dan Hearsch.If range anxiety has been the headline problem for EV adoption, BYD may be attacking it at the source. The Chinese automaker is testing a 1,500 kW “flash charging” network that looks less like a parking lot and more like a traditional gas station.The demo site in Shenzhen features liquid-cooled charging guns and pull-through lanes, allowing drivers to plug in and roll out—no backing into stalls required.Leaked specs suggest up to 1,500 kW on a 1,000V architecture—potentially adding 249 miles in about 5 minutes. For context, most U.S. and European fast chargers top out at 350 kW.Testing is currently limited to select BYD models with a “Flash Charge” badge, with charging reportedly starting within 10 seconds of plug-in.Pricing at the demo site is around $0.18 per kWh, a fraction of many Western public charging rates.CarMax just became the first U.S. auto retailer to launch a car-shopping app inside ChatGPT, bringing both buying and selling tools directly into the AI platform. It's another signal that conversational commerce isn't coming—it's here.Customers can browse CarMax's 45,000+ vehicle inventory using natural prompts like “SUV with third row under $25,000” or “small AWD car with good tech.”The app also allows sellers to check their vehicle's value and connect directly to CarMax's online offer tool.CarMax says the goal is to reduce the overwhelm of used-car shopping by meeting customers on a platform they're already using.Today's show is brought to you by iPacket Value.

Du glaubst, eine E-Auto-Tour durch die Sahara scheitert an fehlendem Strom. Genau diese Annahme hält viele Diskussionen über E-Mobilität in Afrika klein. Die spannendste Erkenntnis aus einer echten Testfahrt mit fünf Elektroautos bis Dakar ist eine andere: Es gibt Strom, aber du kannst dich nicht auf das Netz verlassen. Und wer das versteht, plant Ladeinfrastruktur, Routen und sogar Fahrzeugwahl plötzlich viel realistischer. Hier ist der Perspektivwechsel, der alles verändert: Nicht „zu wenig Energie“ ist das Problem, sondern „zu wenig Verlässlichkeit“. Strom in Afrika: Nicht die Menge ist das Problem, sondern die Stabilität des Netzes Silvia Brutschin, Organisatorin der „Rive to Dakar“ und langjährige Macherin der Rive Maroc, bringt es auf den Punkt. Die Diskussion „Ihr nehmt den Menschen den Strom weg“ greift zu kurz, weil sie am Kern vorbeigeht. "Strom ist nicht knapp. Das Problem ist, dass das Netz instabil ist aber nicht, dass der Strom knapp ist." (Silvia Brutschin, Organisatorin Rive to Dakar) Warum das so wichtig ist: Wenn du E-Mobilität in Regionen mit schwankender Netzqualität bewerten willst, brauchst du andere Maßstäbe als in Mitteleuropa. Nicht „gibt es eine Ladesäule“, sondern: Gibt es planbare, wiederholbare Ladepunkte? Gibt es Drehstrom? Wie oft fällt der Strom aus? Was passiert, wenn mehrere Fahrzeuge gleichzeitig laden? Silvia liefert dazu eine konkrete Beobachtung aus der Praxis: "Mauritanien hat zwei bis drei Mal die Woche Stromausfall." (Silvia Brutschin, Organisatorin Rive to Dakar) Das ist kein Randdetail. Es ist der Unterschied zwischen „Tour machbar“ und „Tour wird Glücksspiel“. Und es erklärt auch, warum klassische Ladeanbieter-Logik (ein Standort, ein Betreiber, Wartung nach Standardprozess) in manchen Regionen nicht automatisch funktioniert. Ladeinfrastruktur in der Wüste: So sieht „pragmatisches Laden“ wirklich aus Wer „Ladeinfrastruktur“ hört, denkt an Schnelllader, Apps, Roaming, HPC-Parks. In der Sahara sieht die Realität bodenständiger aus, und genau das macht sie so lehrreich. Silvia beschreibt, wie ihre Gruppe aus gefundenen Stromspots echte nutzbare Ladepunkte gemacht hat: "An diesen Spots die wir entdeckt haben mit diesem dreifasigen Strom haben wir dann Typ-Zweiladestationen oder einfach nur eine einfache rote CE mit Zweiunddreißig KW hingelegt." Der strategische Punkt dahinter: In frühen Infrastrukturphasen gewinnt nicht die perfekte Lösung, sondern die replizierbare. Eine rote CEE-Dose und eine verlässliche Quelle können mehr bewirken als ein kaputter Schnelllader, der „eigentlich“ da sein sollte. Und es blieb nicht bei Theorie. Die Gruppe hat mit fünf Fahrzeugen getestet, ob das System unter Last funktioniert: "Es gab überall Strom. Wir konnten alle Fahrzeuge laden." (Silvia Brutschin, Organisatorin Rive to Dakar) Gleichzeitig bleibt die Realität rau: Selbst wenn Strom vorhanden ist, kann er instabil sein, und das merkst du manchmal erst später. "Es gab überall Strom … auch Strom relativ instabil ist. Das haben dann die Teilnehmer eher auf dem Rückweg dann gespürt." (Silvia Brutschin, Organisatorin Rive to Dakar) Merke: Wer E-Mobilität in Afrika ernst meint, muss weniger über „Reichweitenangst“ sprechen und mehr über Netzqualität, Redundanz und einfache Standards, die vor Ort wartbar sind. Die unterschätzte Hürde: Grenzen, Visa und Zeit schlagen Ladeplanung Wenn du über E-Roadtrips sprichst, landet die Debatte schnell bei Kilometern und Kilowatt. Die Dakar-Route zeigt etwas anderes: Organisatorische Rahmenbedingungen können die Ladefrage komplett überholen. Silvia wollte die Tour eigentlich straffer planen, aber die Realität hat entschieden: "Jetzt sind wir nicht gepremst worden durch die Ladeinfrastruktur, sondern durch die Grenzen." (Silvia Brutschin, Organisatorin Rive to Dakar)

Zentrale Großspeicher sind oft genehmigungsintensiv, langsam am Netz – und stecken im Anschluss-Stau. Markus Baumann, Gründer und Geschäftsführer von Aurivolt, setzt deshalb auf einen anderen Hebel: Schwarmspeicher. Viele kleine Batteriespeicher (typisch 25 kW / ~280–290 kWh) werden im Niederspannungsnetz verteilt an Trafos in Gewerbegebieten angebunden – schnell, standardisiert und skalierbar. Im Gespräch mit Claus Hartmann erklärt Markus, warum genau dieser Ansatz Netzbetreibern Luft verschaffen kann, wie Aurivolt Flächen in Gewerbeparks findet („tote Ecken“), warum eigene Netzanschlüsse oft der pragmatischste Weg sind – und wieso Arbitrage im Spot- und Intraday-Handel aktuell attraktiver ist als Regelenergie. Außerdem sprechen wir über Sommer-/Wintereffekte, Batterie-Lebensdauer, Zyklen, Degradation und die Vision, bis 2030 ein virtuelles Großkraftwerk aus 20.000 Speichern aufzubauen. Plus: Warum Netzausbau „investierbar“ werden kann – und was Investoren dabei wirklich treibt.

The ID.4 leads the tally with roughly 901,000 units sold globally, while the brand now looks ahead to four new affordable EVs including the ID. Polo, arriving in 2026.ŠKODA GIVES SUPERB HATCH A 200 KW PHEVŠkoda has unveiled a 200 kW plug-in hybrid for the Superb Hatch, pairing a 1.5 TSI petrol engine with an 85 kW electric motor and a 25.7 kWh battery — making it the most powerful combustion-engine model in Škoda's current lineup. The launch reflects growing demand: one in four Superb models now sells with a PHEV powertrain, and more than 68,000 Superb iV models have been delivered since 2019.CANADA OPENS CHINA-BUILT EV QUOTA AT 6.1% TARIFFCanada began accepting import permit applications from 1 March 2026, allowing up to 49,000 China-built EVs per year to enter at a 6.1% tariff — a sharp cut from the 106.1% rate imposed in 2024 — on a first-come, first-served basis. Tesla, Polestar, and Volvo are considered frontrunners to use the allocation, which Ottawa plans to scale to 70,000 vehicles annually by 2030, with 50% of that expanded quota reserved for EVs below a set price threshold.CUPRA SETS 5 MARCH BORN FACELIFT REVEALCupra will unveil the Born facelift on 5 March, bringing harder-edged front and rear styling that aligns the model visually with the newer Terramar and Tavascan, plus expected interior upgrades including more premium materials and a revised infotainment layout. The refresh matters commercially: the Born has sold nearly 30,000 units in the UK alone since its 2022 launch, and Cupra will also soon introduce the smaller Raval electric hatchback from approximately £23,000.RANGE ROVER VELAR EV SPOTTED ON WINTER TESTA Range Rover Velar EV prototype has been caught in European winter testing, revealing a dramatically reshaped body with a cab-forward stance, angular haunches, and a fastback-leaning roofline that breaks sharply from traditional boxy SUV design. Crucially, it will be the first Jaguar Land Rover model built on the new 800-volt Electric Modular Architecture (EMA) platform, which is engineered to deliver over 300 miles of range and faster charging capability.RIVIAN LAUNCHES RAD PERFORMANCE SUB-BRANDRivian has launched the Rivian Adventure Department (RAD), a dedicated performance sub-brand targeting harder and faster off-road driving that puts it in direct competition with Land Rover's Octa and Ford's Raptor line. RAD formalises the engineering team already responsible for the R1S and R1T Quad Motor variants, giving Rivian's performance ambitions an official identity and a public-facing platform.TESLA TELLS MODEL Y OWNERS TO CHARGE GENTLYTesla has updated the Model Y Owner's Manual to advise owners to rely on home Level 1 or Level 2 charging for daily use — keeping limits at 80% — and to reserve Superchargers for road trips, warning that frequent DC fast charging accelerates long-term battery degradation. For long-term storage, Tesla recommends parking at approximately 50% state of charge and flagging that features like Sentry Mode and Dog Mode can silently drain the battery at roughly 1% per day while the car sits idle.VOLVO PLOTS FASTER ZERO-EMISSION TRUCK PUSHVolvo Group is accelerating its battery-electric heavy truck strategy from a position of strength, holding a 19% share of the European heavy-truck market for the second consecutive year. Its flagship FH Aero Electric packs 780 kWh of batteries for up to 600 km of range and supports megawatt charging that takes the pack from 20% to 80% in just 45 minutes — aligning recharge stops with mandatory driver rest breaks.LYTEN TAKES OVER NORTHVOLT'S SWEDISH BATTERY ASSETSLyten has completed its acquisition of Northvolt's Swedish operations — covering Northvolt Ett, Ett Expansion, and Northvolt Labs — in a deal encompassing nearly $5 billion in book value, 16 GWh of manufacturing capacity, and Europe's largest battery R&D centre. The company plans to restart lithium-ion NMC cell production at the Skellefteå site in the second half of 2026, and will use Northvolt Labs in Västerås to advance its proprietary lithium-sulfur battery technology.BRIM EXPLORER ORDERS TWO ELECTRIC TRIMARANSOslo-based Brim Explorer has signed contracts for two fully electric trimarans — each 24 metres long, carrying 180 passengers — which the firm claims will be the world's most efficient battery-powered vessels upon their spring 2027 delivery. The boats will operate silent, emission-free sightseeing cruises along Norway's coast with a battery-only range of 100 nautical miles at speeds up to 20 knots, expanding Brim's existing five-vessel fleet.

You can be like them by clicking here: https://www.patreon.com/EVNewsDaily EV LIST PRICES FALL AS GAS GUZZLER PRICES RISENew EV list prices (excluding Tesla) dropped 2.3%, or roughly $1,500, from an average of $63,327 in September 2025 to $61,860 in January 2026, while average new gas-powered vehicle prices rose 2.5% to $47,427 over the same period. The sharpest cuts came after the federal EV tax credit expired, with the Hyundai IONIQ 5 leading the slide at a 13.8% drop of over $7,000, followed by the Chevrolet Equinox EV at nearly $4,000 off — six models in total posted drops above 5%. FORD TEASES EUROPE CAR RETURN AFTER FIESTA, FOCUSFord CEO Jim Farley used the Q4 2025 earnings call to signal "exciting plans" for passenger cars in Europe, framing the comeback as a selective, profitable return to specific segments rather than a volume land grab. Two new EVs built on Renault's Ampere platform are expected in the subcompact segment from the Ford–Renault partnership, with new passenger cars set to start arriving in 2027 under a new dedicated Europe passenger-car leadership role. UBER EXPANDS EV RIDES ACROSS EIGHT UK CITIESUber has rolled out its EV ride option to eight more UK cities — Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, Edinburgh, Cambridge, Belfast and Merseyside — at standard UberX prices, after falling short of its pledge to run an all-electric London fleet by end-2025. Only 40% of London miles are now covered by EVs, with UK General Manager Andrew Brem citing charging access as "the biggest barrier," prompting Uber to announce driver support measures including discounted home and public charging in partnership with Pod Point. BMW TALKS PRICE FLOOR TO DODGE EU MINI DUTYBMW and the European Commission are in advanced talks to replace the EU's 20.7% countervailing duty on China-made Mini BEVs with a minimum import price agreement, according to Handelsblatt — covering the Mini Cooper Electric and Mini Aceman, both built at BMW's Zhangjiagang joint venture with Great Wall Motor. The approach would mirror the "price undertaking" the EU accepted from Volkswagen Anhui in early February, which freed the Cupra Tavascan from countervailing duties in exchange for a confidential price floor, volume cap and EU investment commitments. EU CITY BUS SALES HIT 60% ZERO-EMISSIONSix in ten new city buses registered across the EU in 2025 were zero-emission — 56% battery-electric and 4% fuel cell — a dramatic jump from just 12% when the Clean Vehicles Directive was adopted in 2019. Five member states hit 100% zero-emission city bus sales in 2025 (Bulgaria, Denmark, Estonia, Latvia and Slovenia), and Transport & Environment says a fully zero-emission EU city bus market is achievable as early as 2028.​MG2 SET FOR 2027 UK LAUNCH AT £20,000MG will enter the electric supermini segment in 2027 with the all-new MG2, targeting a starting price of around £20,000 (~$25,200), to take on rivals including the Renault 5, Citroën e-C3, Fiat Grande Panda and the incoming VW ID. Polo. The car will use the newer E3 architecture from the MG4 Urban, run front-wheel drive with a torsion-beam rear axle for cost efficiency, and feature a 12.8-inch touchscreen with physical climate controls — a reveal is expected in the second half of 2026. MG CONFIRMS MGS9 PHEV SEVEN-SEATER FOR UKMG will launch the MGS9 plug-in hybrid SUV in the UK later in 2026 as its new flagship, offering three full adult-sized rows and targeting rivals such as the Peugeot 5008, Kia Sorento and Skoda Kodiaq at a value-led price point. The model already holds a five-star Euro NCAP rating and could reach UK showrooms as early as summer 2026, extending MG's line-up to 11 models. AUSTRALIA NVES DATA SHOWS HYBRIDS DO THE HEAVY LIFTAustralia's National Vehicle Emissions Standard published its first half-year performance data (July–December 2025), showing EVs made up roughly 12% of new vehicles supplied, with about two-thirds of manufacturers — including BYD and Polestar — meeting their fleet-wide emissions targets. Petrol- and hybrid-focused brands such as Mazda and Hyundai fell short and face penalties if they don't improve, while the data reveals that near-term emissions gains are leaning more on efficient hybrids than on full EVs. LECTRON ADAPTERS WIN UL 2252 SAFETY CERTIFICATIONLectron has earned UL 2252 safety certification across its full range of EV charging adapters — covering J3400, CCS1 and J1772 in both AC and DC variants — with its two DC adapters handling up to 500 amps at 1,000 volts for peak power of 500 kW, and built-in thermal sensors that trigger derating if heat rises during fast charging. The certification comes as the North American charging landscape remains split between NACS and CCS1 on DC networks and J1772 on AC infrastructure, making a certified bridging adapter an increasingly essential tool for EV drivers navigating the transition.

Man wundert sich immer wieder, wenn es heißt, die Brennstoffzellentechnologie sei tot. Das Argument? Es gäbe nicht genug Tankstellen dafür. Ein Argument, das nicht wirklich überzeugt. Zum einen kann man ein Brennstoffzellenfahrzeug deutlich schneller betanken, als man ein Elektroauto laden kann, zum anderen gibt es weiterhin Hersteller, die nicht nur E-Fahrzeuge, sondern auch Brennstoffzellenfahrzeuge. Und wenn ein Weltkonzern wie Hyundai das auch weiterhin tut, dann kann diese Technologie wohl kaum tot sein. Darum geht es diesmal!Hyundai eröffnet ein neues Kapitel innovativer Antriebstechnologie: Ab sofort startet der Verkauf des neuen NEXO, der zweiten Generation des Wasserstoff-Brennstoffzellenfahrzeugs des südkoreanischen Automobilherstellers. Mit seiner wegweisenden Brennstoffzellentechnologie, einer elektrischen Reichweite von bis zu 826 Kilometern und einem komplett neuen Design setzt der NEXO Maßstäbe für emissionsfreie Langstreckenmobilität.Power und Drive!    Der neue NEXO bietet signifikante Verbesserungen der Antriebsstrangtechnologie. Die Verbesserungen sowohl der Brennstoffzellen- als auch der Leistungselektronik ermöglichen es dem neuen Elektromotor, 150 kW (204 PS) zu liefern. Dazu ist ein Energieverbrauch von 0,8 bis 0,9 Kilogramm Wasserstoff (H2) auf 100 km Fahrstecke nötig. Mit der bereits angesprochenen Reichweite von bis zu 826 Kilometern und einer Beschleunigungszeit von nur 7,8 Sekunden für den Spurt von 0 auf 100 km/h setzt er zugleich den Maßstab im Segment der Brennstoffzellen-SUV. Zudem verfügt das Wasserstoffsystem jetzt über eine größere Speicherkapazität – 6,69 kg gegenüber 6,33 kg bei der vorherigen Generation – ohne das Platzangebot im Innenraum zu beeinträchtigen. Die Innenausstattung!Bereits die Basisversion NEXO bietet eine umfassende Serienausstattung, zum Standard gehören Matrix-LED-Scheinwerfer, 18-Zoll-Leichtmetallfelgen, eine elektrische Sitzverstellung und Sitzheizung vorn sowie das moderne ccNC-Cockpit mit zwei 12,3-Zoll-Curved-Displays. Auch die neue Vehicle-to-Load-Funktion ist bereits dabei und ermöglicht das externe Nutzen von Strom direkt aus dem Fahrzeug. Für Sicherheit und Komfort sorgen eine 360°-Kamera, der Parkassistent mit Fernbedienung, eine Einparkhilfe vorne, seitlich und hinten mit Notbremsfunktion sowie der Totwinkelassistent mit Monitoranzeige. Die Ausstattungslinie Prime verfügt zusätzlich unter anderem über ein Bang & Olufsen Soundsystem sowie eine Lederpolsterung und eine Sitzheizung auch in der zweiten Reihe.Die Kosten!Den NEXO gibt es ab 69.900 Euro ist der Basisversion, als Alternative ist der Prime im Angebot, der mit 77.550 Euro in der Preisliste steht. Ich denke, schon die Basisversion ist mit einer reichlichen Ausstattung versehen. Ob es den Prime braucht, muss jeder für sich entscheiden. Alle Fotos: © Hyundai Motor Deutschland GmbH    Diesen Beitrag können Sie nachhören oder downloaden unter:

Die aktuellen Automobilkurznachrichten mit Michael Weyland  Thema heute:  Lexus RZ feiert Premiere im Handel      Foto: Toyota Deutschland GmbH   Start frei für den neuen Lexus RZ: Das vollelektrische Premium-SUV feierte soeben Premiere in den deutschen Lexus Foren. Das umfassend überarbeitete elektrische Modell steht für Probefahrten bereit, die ersten Auslieferungen an Kunden erfolgen in den kommenden Wochen. Die deutlich größere Reichweite und die kürzeren Ladezeiten des neuen RZ machen den Einstieg in die Elektromobilität für Kunden noch einfacher. Mindestens ebenso entscheidend ist aber der geschärfte sportliche Charakter des neuen RZ. Steer-by-Wire, DIRECT4 Allradsteuerung und das Lexus Interactive Manual Drive sorgen darüber hinaus für eine noch intensivere Verbindung zwischen Fahrer und Fahrzeug und für ein Fahrerlebnis auf neuem Niveau.   Fahraktiver und alltagstauglicher   Dazu gehören Alltagstauglichkeit und Fahrvergnügen. Während der neue E-Achsen Antrieb mehr Leistung bietet und in Verbindung mit der ausstattungsabhängigen Allradsteuerung DIRECT4 und dem neuen Steer-by-Wire-System für ein begeisterndes Fahrerlebnis sorgt, steigt die Reichweite dank der optimierten 77-kWh-Batterie auf bis zu 559 Kilometer ja nach Variante. An Gleichstrom-Schnellladestationen lässt sich der RZ in 30 Minuten von 10 auf 80 Prozent aufladen. Zudem gehört ein 22-kW-Bordladegerät zur Serienausstattung, das die Ladezeiten an der heimischen Wallbox oder an AC-Ladestationen verkürzt.     Die Kunden haben die Wahl zwischen drei Antriebsoptionen: Das Premium-SUV ist als RZ 350e mit 167 kW/227 PS, als RZ 500e mit 280 kW/380 PS sowie als RZ 550e mit 300 kW/408 PS erhältlich. Während der RZ 350e über Frontantrieb verfügt, werden in den beiden leistungsstärkeren Varianten standardmäßig mit DIRECT4 alle vier Räder angetrieben. Als 350e FWD kostet der RZ in der Executive Ausführung 57.100 Euro, als Premium 65.000 Euro. Der RZ 500e DIRECT4 liegt als Executive bei 63.000 Euro, in den Luxury muss man 73.100 Euro investieren. Topmodell ist der neue RZ 550e DIRECT4. Der wird ausschließlich als F SPORT Version angeboten und kostet 78.700 Euro. Diesen Beitrag können Sie nachhören oder downloaden unter:

Wer ein Auto sucht, das zu 100% zu ihm passt, der hat es schwer. Irgendeine Kleinigkeit passt meistens nicht. Das kommt besonders oft vor, wenn man ein Fahrzeug mit viel Platz für Passagiere und Gepäck sucht, aber oft in der Stadt unterwegs ist! Da hätten wir einen Tipp für Sie. Den Opel Zafira. Er hat bis zu neun Sitzplätze, misst aber in der Höhe gerade einmal rund 1,90 Meter und ist damit tiefgaragentauglich. Darum geht es diesmal!Der Opel Zafira überzeugt die Kunden als moderne Lounge auf Rädern genauso wie als komfortabler, praktischer Großraum-Van für Familie und Freizeit. Jetzt ist er noch vielfältiger und attraktiver, denn neben dem vollelektrischen, lokal emissionsfreien Zafira Electric ist das Multitalent für Familien auch mit einem 2,2-Liter-Diesel-Antrieb der jüngsten Generation bestellbar. Power und Drive!    Der Euro 6e konforme 2.2 Turbodiesel im Opel Zafira bietet mit Direkteinspritzung der neuen Generation und einem optimierten Abgasrückführungssystem eine höhere Effizienz und niedrigere Emissionen im Vergleich zu früheren Diesel-Generationen. So ließen sich Kraftstoffverbrauch und CO2-Ausstoß um bis zu 13 Prozent senken, was sich positiv für die Umwelt wie auch im Portemonnaie der Kunden bemerkbar macht. Mit seinen 132 kW (180 PS) und 400 Newtonmeter Drehmoment sorgt der neuentwickelte Motor im Zafira für dynamischen Fahrspaß in der Stadt genauso wie auf der Autobahn. Dazu trägt auch die sanft schaltende Achtgang-Automatik bei. In 10,6 Sekunden kann der Zafira so von 0 auf 100 km/h beschleunigen; flotte 185 km/h Spitze sind drin. Erhältlich ist der 2,2-Liter-Diesel der jüngsten Generation sowohl für die 4,98 Meter lange Zafira-Variante als auch für den 5,33 Meter langen Zafira XL. Die Innenausstattung!Egal, ob sich die Kunden für die batterie-elektrische und damit lokal emissionsfreie Antriebsversion oder für den effizienten Verbrenner entscheiden, sie können sich auf die typischen Zafira-Qualitäten verlassen: Der komfortable Großraum-Van hält für bis zu 9 Personen Platz bereit. Noch angenehmer wird es im Fond auf Wunsch mit vier unabhängigen, einander gegenüberliegenden Vis-à-vis-Sitzen, die den Zafira zum besonders komfortablen Reisemobil machen. Den Ein- und Ausstieg zu den Reihen zwei und drei erleichtern sensorgesteuerte, elektrische Schiebetüren auf beiden Fahrzeugseiten.

El E-Prix de Yeda 2026 dejó un golpe estratégico de alto nivel en el campeonato del mundo de Fórmula E. Pascal Wehrlein ejecutó una victoria milimétrica en su carrera número 100, sincronizando PIT BOOST y ATTACK MODE para abrir una ventaja decisiva que lo catapulta al liderato del mundial. Gestión energética impecable, lectura de carrera y sangre fría en el momento exacto. En la segunda carrera, António Félix da Costa respondió para Jaguar con una estrategia agresiva en los modos de potencia de 350 kW. Activaciones tempranas, control del ritmo y defensa final bajo presión para firmar su primera victoria con el equipo británico y reactivar la lucha por equipos frente a Porsche. Yeda confirmó una tendencia clara: el ATTACK MODE tardío marca diferencias cuando la carrera entra en fase crítica. Mortara volvió a demostrar ritmo de pole, Evans sumó consistencia y el campeonato se comprime en la zona alta. Porsche lidera pilotos y constructores, pero Jaguar ya está en modo persecución. La Fórmula E 2026 entra en fase estratégica total antes de su próxima cita en Madrid.

"Almost everybody will overestimate how much they can grow in one year. At the same time, they underestimate how much they can grow in five." In this episode, Heather talks with Jay Papasan about why doing more isn't the answer, how relentless productivity can actually work against you, and what happens when you commit to the one thing that truly matters. This is a conversation about focus as a skill, boredom as a feature of mastery, and the quiet, intentional choices that make everything else easier (or unnecessary). If you're tired of spinning your wheels and ready to aim strategically instead of swinging harder, this episode will reframe how you approach your goals, your time, and yourself. What to listen for: ✨ What "the one thing" is, and how it applies to life roles and responsibilities ✨ How addiction to productivity is harming us and how to choose aligned priorities ✨ Training your brain to narrow its focus so that you make the most of your actions "You get to pick where you're aiming the tool. You ask the question, 'What's the one thing I can do such that by doing it, everything else will be easier or unnecessary?'" ✨ Why doing tasks earlier in the day helps bypass resistance and distraction ✨ Implementing the essential practice of "goals before phones" to stay on track ✨ Working with the human element when accountability doesn't work "What would your world look like if every day, before you look at your phone, you had to look at your goals? When people are reminded of their priorities, they're more likely to keep them." ✨ What happens on the other side of being strategically focused and intentional ✨ How to make peace with the boredom of success that's required for mastery ✨ Getting honest about how suffering and self-sabotage are serving you (or not) About Jay Papasan: Jay Papasan [Pap-uh-zan] is a bestselling author who has served in multiple executive leadership positions during his 24-year career at Keller Williams Realty International, the world's largest real estate company.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1248: Dealer confidence takes a hit as affordability pressures and tighter margins creep into Q4, even as fixed ops and F&I try to hold the line. Meanwhile, Wawa goes all-in on Tesla charging, and the Vegas Sphere model heads to DC.Show Notes with links: Dealer sentiment isn't what it was in Q3 as affordability pressures, rising rates, and tighter margins took their toll on the Q4 numbers. While conditions remain technically “favorable,” confidence slipped quarter over quarter, with dealers signaling tougher days ahead despite strength in fixed ops and F&I.Dealers rated current performance at 62.3, down 5 points from Q3 and the lowest of any industry segment, citing consumer affordability as the biggest drag.Rising interest rates and payment-driven shoppers are shrinking showroom traffic and compressing grosses as price transparency intensifies competition.Fixed ops and F&I remain bright spots, though confidence there also dipped compared to Q3 as financing conditions worsened.Used-vehicle operations grew more challenging, with quality—not quantity—becoming the main inventory issue after years of tight supply.Wawa is slapping its logo on Tesla Superchargers.  The popular convenience store giant has launched its first self-branded Tesla Supercharger site, signaling a deeper push into EV infrastructure.The first Wawa-owned, Wawa-branded Supercharger site is now live in Alachua, Florida, featuring 16 ultra-fast 325 kW stalls.The site operates under Tesla's new Supercharger for Business program, where Tesla installs and manages chargers while Wawa controls pricing.Charging is set at $0.37 per kWh, and Wawa hasn't disclosed how many more branded sites are planned—but its 1,200+ stores offer big expansion potential.The Vegas Sphere is coming to a Nations Capital near you.  Sphere Entertainment plans a 6,000-seat “mini-Sphere” in National Harbor, Maryland, bringing its eye-popping screens and immersive tech to the DC area, along with a billion-dollar price tag and big economic promises.The DC-area Sphere will be about one-third the size of Las Vegas, but feature the same massive screen, immersive audio, 4D effects, and haptic seating.Construction is expected to cost over $1 billion, supported by roughly $200 million in state, local, and private incentives—some requiring voter approval.This episode of the Automotive State of the Union is brought to you by Amazon Autos: Meet customers where they shop: reach high-intent buyers shopping for their next car on the #1 online retailer.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

AI data centers are no longer just buildings full of racks. They are tightly coupled systems where power, cooling, IT, and operations all depend on each other, and where bad assumptions get expensive fast. On the latest episode of The Data Center Frontier Show, Editor-in-Chief Matt Vincent talks with Sherman Ikemoto of Cadence about what it now takes to design an “AI factory” that actually works. Ikemoto explains that data center design has always been fragmented. Servers, cooling, and power are designed by different suppliers, and only at the end does the operator try to integrate everything into one system. That final integration phase has long relied on basic tools and rules of thumb, which is risky in today's GPU-dense world. Cadence is addressing this with what it calls “DC elements”:  digitally validated building blocks that represent real systems, such as NVIDIA's DGX SuperPOD with GB200 GPUs. These are not just drawings; they model how systems really behave in terms of power, heat, airflow, and liquid cooling. Operators can assemble these elements in a digital twin and see how an AI factory will actually perform before it is built. A key shift is designing directly to service-level agreements. Traditional uncertainty forced engineers to add large safety margins, driving up cost and wasting power. With more accurate simulation, designers can shrink those margins while still hitting uptime and performance targets, critical as rack densities move from 10–20 kW to 50–100 kW and beyond. Cadence validates its digital elements using a star system. The highest level, five stars, requires deep validation and supplier sign-off. The GB200 DGX SuperPOD model reached that level through close collaboration with NVIDIA. Ikemoto says the biggest bottleneck in AI data center buildouts is not just utilities or equipment; it is knowledge. The industry is moving too fast for old design habits. Physical prototyping is slow and expensive, so virtual prototyping through simulation is becoming essential, much like in aerospace and automotive design. Cadence's Reality Digital Twin platform uses a custom CFD engine built specifically for data centers, capable of modeling both air and liquid cooling and how they interact. It supports “extreme co-design,” where power, cooling, IT layout, and operations are designed together rather than in silos. Integration with NVIDIA Omniverse is aimed at letting multiple design tools share data and catch conflicts early. Digital twins also extend beyond commissioning. Many operators now use them in live operations, connected to monitoring systems. They test upgrades, maintenance, and layout changes in the twin before touching the real facility. Over time, the digital twin becomes the operating platform for the data center. Running real AI and machine-learning workloads through these models reveals surprises. Some applications create short, sharp power spikes in specific areas. To be safe, facilities often over-provision power by 20–30%, leaving valuable capacity unused most of the time. By linking application behavior to hardware and facility power systems, simulation can reduce that waste, crucial in an era where power is the main bottleneck. The episode also looks at Cadence's new billion-cycle power analysis tools, which allow massive chip designs to be profiled with near-real accuracy, feeding better system- and facility-level models. Cadence and NVIDIA have worked together for decades at the chip level. Now that collaboration has expanded to servers, racks, and entire AI factories. As Ikemoto puts it, the data center is the ultimate system—where everything finally comes together—and it now needs to be designed with the same rigor as the silicon inside it.

Send us a textA rusty mug that cuts your lip. A wood stove without a door. Eighty days on Great Slave Lake will make you grateful for the little things—and will redraw your map of what matters. We sat down with winter guide and Alone Season 7 alum Kielyn Marrone to unpack how survival clarity and traditional craft can turn deep cold into deep comfort.Kielyn traces the path from competitive athlete to outdoor educator to co‑founder of Lure of the North, guiding everyone from first‑timers at a cozy base camp to hardy travellers on committing northern routes. She breaks down the traditional winter system—canvas anoraks, big snowshoes, hot tents, and freight toboggans—and why breathable, natural materials outperform heavy “cold camping” in real wilderness. We dig into her DIY roots: teaching moccasin, mitten, and anorak workshops; launching gear kits and videos; then intentionally splitting the retail side to protect the expedition focus and avoid burnout.The conversation travels home to their off‑grid homestead built from a prospector tent and a leaking aluminum boat, now powered by a 12 kW solar array with diesel backup. Kielyn shares the unglamorous but essential systems—rotating compost, a bear‑proof garbage cage, a simple thunderbox—and why modern conveniences can live alongside primal solutions. As camp chef, she reveals how single‑ingredient freeze‑dried staples make lighter, healthier meals at scale, retaining nutrients and rehydrating fast in subzero temps.Hear about a 73‑day snowshoe traverse from Lake Superior to James Bay, the art of pacing ten‑hour days, and the quiet headspace of walking in winter rhythm. If you care about winter camping, hot tenting, DIY gear, off‑grid living, survival lessons, or planning remote expeditions, this one is packed with field‑tested insight and hard‑earned laughs.If this story moved you or taught you something new, follow the show, leave a quick review, and share it with a friend who loves wild places.

Para entender lo que las marcas no te explican. Porque el automóvil está cambiando radicalmente. Nuestra querida jerga de cilindradas, compresión y árboles de levas está siendo sustituida por un nuevo diccionario lleno de siglas que, admitámoslo, muchas veces parecen diseñadas para confundirnos. Hoy no vamos a debatir si el eléctrico es el futuro o no; hoy vamos a diseccionar la tecnología con "ingeniería a tu alcance" para que, cuando leas una ficha técnica, entiendas de verdad qué te están vendiendo. Aquí tienes los pilares fundamentales para entender un coche eléctrico moderno: 1. kW vs. kWh La gran confusión Es la base de todo y donde más gente se pierde. -kW (Kilovatios): Es la POTENCIA. Equivale a lo que antes llamábamos caballos (CV). Para pasar de kW a CV solo multiplica por 1,36. Representa la fuerza del motor o la velocidad de carga. -kWh (Kilovatios-hora): Es la ENERGÍA. Es la capacidad de la batería, equivalente a los litros del depósito de gasolina. Piensa en un cubo de agua: los kWh son el tamaño del cubo (cuánta agua cabe) y los kW son el grosor de la manguera. Tener muchos kWh (batería grande) no garantiza cargar rápido si tu sistema de carga (kW) es lento. 2. El Corazón: Motores Síncronos vs. Asíncronos No todos los "motores de 200 CV" son iguales. Existen dos grandes familias: -Síncronos de Imanes Permanentes (PSM): El rotor gira a la misma velocidad que el campo magnético. Son los reyes de la eficiencia (más del 90%) y ultra precisos, ideales para ciudad. La desventaja es que son caros y pueden generar resistencia al rodar por inercia si no se gestionan bien. -Asíncronos o de Inducción (ASM): El rotor gira algo más lento que el campo magnético. Son robustos y más baratos (sin imanes de tierras raras). Su gran ventaja es que no ofrecen resistencia cuando no se usan, permitiendo ir "a vela" en autopista sin consumo. Muchos coches de tracción total inteligentes usan un motor síncrono en un eje para el día a día y un asíncrono en el otro que solo "despierta" al pisar a fondo. 3. La Química de la Batería Exige saber qué química lleva tu coche, porque determina su vida útil y uso. -NCM (Níquel-Cobalto-Manganeso) / NCA: Son las baterías de alto rendimiento. Ofrecen mucha densidad energética (mucha autonomía en poco peso), ideales para viajes largos y deportivos. Sin embargo, son más caras, inestables térmicamente y sufren si se cargan siempre al 100%. -LFP (Litio-Ferrofosfato): Son las baterías que están democratizando el eléctrico. Son rocas: muy seguras, difícilmente arden, baratas y con una vida útil larguísima (+2.000 ciclos). A diferencia de las NCM, a las LFP debes cargarlas al 100% frecuentemente para calibrar su gestión. Su contra es que pesan más y sufren más con el frío extremo. 4. Voltios y Carga: 400V vs 800V La mayoría de eléctricos funcionan a 400 Voltios, pero los más sofisticados saltan a 800 Voltios. ¿La diferencia? En un sistema de 800V, la electricidad se empuja con más presión (voltaje) y menos intensidad, lo que reduce el calor y permite usar cables más finos. Esto se traduce en cargas ultrarrápidas consistentes, recuperando del 10 al 80% en apenas 18 minutos. Glosario Básico para no perderse: -BMS (Battery Management System): El director de orquesta. Controla temperatura y voltaje de cada celda. Un buen BMS define si tu batería durará 10 años o 3. -Curva de Carga: Olvida el "pico de potencia". Lo importante es la potencia media. Muchos coches tienen un pico alto que cae a los 5 minutos. -Frenada Regenerativa: El motor se vuelve generador. Úsala al máximo en ciudad (One Pedal) y minimízala en autopista para aprovechar la inercia. -Frunk: Maletero delantero, ideal para cables sucios. -WLTP vs. Realidad: Para saber la autonomía real en autopista a 120 km/h, resta un 25-30% a la cifra oficial WLTP. El enemigo es la aerodinámica. -Vampire Drain: El consumo fantasma de tu coche parado (sistemas de vigilancia, conectividad, etc.). Entender un coche eléctrico requiere cambiar el chip: dejamos de mirar cilindros para mirar celdas. Si es para ciudad, busca LFP y eficiencia; si es para viajar, busca aerodinámica, NCM y 800V. La información es poder.

Después de una semana de vacaciones, por Navidad, el Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 regresa en el momento en el que hay noticias más que jugosas para analizar, sobre todo en la Fórmula 1. Motores en el centro de la polémica. En 2026 encaramos el inicio de una nueva era. Pero, antes incluso de que los monoplazas rueden en pista, la gran historia del próximo campeonato gira en torno a los motores y una polémica que ya domina las conversaciones en el paddock. La nueva normativa técnica, diseñada para equilibrar costes y atraer a nuevos fabricantes, incluyó un cambio clave: la reducción de la relación de compresión máxima de los motores de combustión interna de 18:1 a 16:1. Esta cifra define cuántas veces se comprime la mezcla de aire y combustible en el cilindro, y es un parámetro fundamental para la eficiencia y potencia del motor. Sin embargo, equipos punteros como Mercedes y Red Bull Powertrains (con apoyo de Ford) parecen haber encontrado una “brecha” o interpretación del reglamento técnico (artículo C5.4.3) que les permitiría, en condiciones reales de funcionamiento, superar ese límite. La clave está en cómo se mide legalmente la compresión: la relación solo se verifica cuando el motor está estático y a temperatura ambiente. Eso deja una ventana para que, una vez el motor está caliente y en pleno uso, los materiales se expandan controladamente, lo que aumenta el volumen efectivo en la cámara de combustión, y el motor opere con una relación similar a la antigua de 18:1. La importancia de medir bien. Este supuesto “truco” no es menor. Simulaciones independientes estiman que podría ofrecer hasta unos 10 kW adicionales (≈ 13 CV) y traducirse en 0,3–0,4 segundos por vuelta en circuitos sensibles al motor, como el Albert Park de Melbourne. Los demás fabricantes (Ferrari, Audi y Honda/Aston Martin), como no podía ser de otra forma, han alzado la voz y enviado cartas de protesta a la FIA, alegando que esta interpretación va en contra del espíritu de la normativa y rompe la pretendida igualdad de condiciones antes de que la temporada siquiera comience. El lío ya está sobre la mesa: la FIA actúa con tibieza (al menos en ese sentido son coherentes: nunca se mojan). Han defendido que los motores son legales según el reglamento vigente, porque cumplen con la medición establecida. También ha dejado entrever que en el futuro podrían ajustarse procedimientos o textos para cerrar la laguna, pero por ahora la situación se mantiene sin una resolución clara. ¿Qué podría pasar a menos de un mes de que arranquen los primeros motores? Más allá de quién tenga razón, el lío es real: si esta interpretación sigue siendo válida, Mercedes y Red Bull podrían entrar en 2026 con una clara ventaja de rendimiento (una vez más). Y eso beneficiaría, también, a todos los equipos que utilicen sus unidades de potencia (4 motorizados por Mercedes, entre ellos, McLaren; y 2 motorizados por Red Bull Powertrains – Ford). Está claro que se crearía un desequilibrio técnico y competitivo que, desde ya, amenaza con marcar la primera parte de la era 2026.

The data center industry is being redefined by AI's demand for faster, denser, and more scalable infrastructure. According to McKinsey, average rack power densities have more than doubled in just two years. It went from approximately 8 kW to 17 kW, and is expected to hit 30 kW by 2027. Global data center power demand is projected to triple by 2030, reaching 170–220 gigawatts. This rapid growth is forcing a redesign of traditional infrastructure, placing unprecedented strain on utilities, manufacturers, and the skilled labor pipeline.Can infrastructure and workforce capacity scale quickly enough to meet AI's surging data center demands without breaking the system?On Straight Outta Crumpton, host Greg Crumpton welcomes Matt Caldwell, Director of AI/Cloud Data Centers at Hyper Solutions, for a candid conversation about the pressures shaping the modern data center ecosystem. They discuss how AI workloads are upending long-established design norms, why modular manufacturing may offer a more resilient solution, and how labor shortages threaten to slow the entire market. Caldwell also shares how Hyper's unique digital-first model enables scalable, repeatable quality across a distributed manufacturing network.Key Highlights:Density Rewrites the Rulebook: Traditional data centers were designed around ~4 kW racks; today's AI applications require vastly more, prompting major shifts in cooling, power, and facility planning.Hyper's Scalable Manufacturing Model: Hyper Solutions produces PDUs, RPPs, and switchboards through a network of nine UL-listed satellite facilities, all driven by a unified digital process that ensures consistency and real-time visibility.Workforce Urgency: Caldwell underscores a critical labor gap, urging the industry to recruit earlier, targeting high school and even middle school students to meet the rising demand for trades and technical expertise in construction and operations.Matt Caldwell is a seasoned data center executive with over 20 years of experience supporting hyperscale and colocation clients across AI and cloud infrastructure. He has led global account strategy and mission-critical operations at industry leaders including Schneider Electric, Siemens, Trane, and Albireo Energy. Caldwell specializes in scalable design, modular power systems, and digital-first infrastructure delivery and now serves as the Director of AI/Cloud Data Centers at Hyper Solutions.

Travis reconnects with long‑time friend and solar sales leader Steven Cohen to break down how door‑to‑door solar has created life‑changing income for thousands of reps—and why the recent merger of Sunder Energy with publicly traded SunPower has only strengthened that opportunity. From early days earning a few hundred dollars per kilowatt to today's multi‑thousand‑dollar commissions, Steven explains how the industry has evolved, what the new legislation means, and why performance‑based sales is still one of the fastest paths out of a capped paycheck. On this episode we talk about: How Sunder Energy grew into one of the largest solar sales dealerships in the U.S. and why SunPower acquired it to power their third‑party ownership (TPO/lease/PPA) strategy going into 2026 What the recent “big, beautiful bill” did to tax credits, why homeowners will lose the 30% credit on ownership, and how finance companies now use that credit on TPO to lower customer costs Current solar commissions (often $700–$800+ per kW and even higher in some markets), realistic income potential for committed reps, and why many people are now earning the same money on less volume The realities of 100% commission work—no base, no benefits, but unlimited upside—and why solar, pest control, alarms, and similar models are better viewed as businesses than jobs How industry corrections, higher interest rates, and weak operators have shaken out tourists from solar—and why those who stay, build teams, and play the long game are best positioned for the next upswing Top 3 Takeaways Performance‑based sales can compress your earning timeline dramatically, but only if you treat it like a business, manage volatility, and stay in the game when conditions get hard instead of chasing the next “easy” industry. Door‑to‑door isn't just about commission checks; it forges rare skills in communication, resilience, team building, and leadership that transfer to any future venture or career. Solar is still a long‑term growth industry despite short‑term corrections; as energy demand soars with AI, data centers, and crypto, those who remain and level up through this cycle are likely to benefit most from the next boom. Notable Quotes “Profits are better than wages—any time you can be paid on the value you create instead of the hours you clock, you give yourself a real shot at financial freedom.” “It's never just about your comp plan; it's about what you believe you're worth and whether you're willing to bet on your performance instead of your time.” “Most people play the finite game and quit when a cycle turns; if you can stay planted for a decade in the right vehicle, you usually win by simply outlasting everyone else.” Connect with Steven Cohen: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stevencohen/?hl=en ✖️✖️✖️✖️

Wenn Sie sich gerade wieder mit Ihrer Kuscheldecke, einem guten Glas Rotwein und einer von innen wärmenden Vorfreude auf Ihren wöchentlichen Genuss der Baywatch-Berlin-Folgenbeschreibung gefreut haben, muss ich Sie dieses Mal leider enttäuschen. Ja, es gab mal eine Zeit, in der dies hier ein Ort der kreativen Entfaltung war, ein freier Raum voller ungezügelter Ideen & rhetorischer Kniffe & des vielschichtigen Humors. Diese Zeit ist nun leider vorbei – Thomas Schmitt hat diesem Format, beginnend in KW 50, eine neue Sachlichkeit verordnet, weil „man ja in der Kackbeschreibung einfach nie erfährt, worum es in der Folge geht“. Andere Stimmen entgegneten: „Das liest doch sowieso kein einziges Arschloch & wir geben uns nur Mühe damit, um nicht komplett zu verblöden.“ Hier stand also Aussage gegen Aussage & heraus kam der Beschluss: Wir probieren es mal informativer. Dass der nüchternen Aufzählung der tatsächlich besprochenen Themen auch ein gewisser Humor innewohnt, mag vielleicht dem ein oder anderen den Übergang erleichtern. Gesprächsthemen der aktuellen Folge: • Jakob will Gitarre lernen, um den toten Klaas auf seiner Beerdigung zu blamieren. • Klaas hat eine Tüte mit Katzenscheiße im Hausflur vergessen. • Thomas Schmitt plant eine Oben-ohne-Karriere als Teufelsgeiger. • Jakob führt ein geisteskrank aufwändiges „Geruchstheater“ auf. • Irgendeine Oma hat eine Hummel erschlagen & gemeinsam schwelgt man in Erinnerungen an tolle Kindergeburtstage beim Patronenhülsensammeln auf dem Truppenübungsplatz.

Ethereum hasn't reached full speed yet. Now it might. Justin Drake of the Ethereum Foundation outlines Lean Ethereum, a plan to optimise the stack so validators stop executing and start verifying. With zk proofs in under 12 seconds and on-prem provers around 10 kW, the base layer can reach gigagas capacity and roughly 10,000 TPS while getting more decentralized. Add Fossil, seconds-level finality, and post-quantum signatures, and the changes stick. We unpack the EthProofs race, the four-phase path to mandatory proofs, the three-times-a-year gas target in EIP-7938, and why native rollups could remove gas ceilings for L2s. If you're wondering whether Ethereum can scale without turning into a data center chain, this is the roadmap. ---
