Historia de las motos Benelli

6 hermanos, una viuda y una pasión: La moto. Así arranca la historia de Benelli, una historia tormentosa, cuajada de hitos históricos, de triunfos deportivos, de motos míticas como la “Leoncino” o la “Sei” y que ahora forma parte del importante grupo Qianjiang, pero conserva su corazón, las actividades de diseño, desarrollo y marketing, en Pesaro, en Italia. Entre las marcas de moto italianas, sólo Gilera, fundada en 1909 supera en antigüedad a Benelli, fundada en Pesaro solo dos años más tarde. Una historia que vamos a contaros gracias al apoyo de la marca. Nada mejor que tener una buena madre. Con una Italia convulsa, pues estamos a muy pocos años del comienzo de la “gran Guerra”, una autentica “mamma” italiana sufre un revés muy duro: Enviudar con seis hijos a su cargo. Estamos hablando de Teresa Benelli y de sus hijos Giuseppe, Giovanni, Filippo, Francesco, Domenico y Antonio “Tonino” Benelli. La “mamma” Teresa sobre todo quiere asegurar el pan de sus hijos, conseguirles un trabajo estable y como todos eran aficionados a las motos o a la mecánica decide vender todo, utilizar todos los ahorros en dar formación a sus hijos y crear Benelli Garaje. Manda a sus hijos mayores a estudiar a Suiza y crea este taller de reparación con 6 empleados… de los cuales 5 eran sus propios hijos. “Tonino” no tenía edad de trabajar… su futuro sería otro. Para muchos la “Gran Guerra” fue un desastre… y para otros una oportunidad. Y entre esos otros estuvo Benelli, que durante la Primera Guerra Mundial trabajó mucho para el ejercito italiano, lo que le permitió en 1919 diseñar su propio motor y en 1921 presentar su propia moto. Esta moto con su motor de 2 tiempos evolucionó de 75 a 98 cm3, luego a 125 cm3 y finalmente, hasta 147 cm3 en un prototipo de competición pilotado por el pequeño de la familia, “Tonino”. Pero el motor que permitió la expansión de la marca fue un mono cilíndrico de 175 cm3, con árbol de levas en cabeza movido por engranajes y presentado como una verdadera revolución en 1927 y es que lo era. Entre una guerra y otra Benelli aprovechó a competición para dar a conocer su marca. “Tonino” Benelli ganó 4 campeonatos italianos de velocidad. Pero en esta vida hay que tener suerte: Tonino tuvo primero un accidente que le aparto de la competición en 1932 y 45 años más tarde un accidente de tráfico que acabó con su vida. Mientras tanto Benelli, para hacer frente a su competencia, diseño diversos motores sobrealimentados, entre ellos un magnifico 4 cilindros de 250 cm3 con compresor volumétrico y nada menos que 52 CV a 10.000 rpm… y eso en 1938. Pero estalló la Segunda Guerra Mundial y estos motores con compresor fueron prohibidos… ¡qué pena! Y tras la guerra Benelli debe recomponerse. El cómo hacerlo fue motivo de disputas entre los hermanos, hasta el punto que el mayor, Giuseppe Benelli decide separarse y crear otra empresa diferente: MotoBi. Pero Benelli sale adelante con la creación de nuevos modelos entre los que destaca el “Leoncino” de los que se vendieron alrededor de 50.000 entre 1950 y 1960 y fue todo un éxito. En la década de los 60 las cosas se complican. Por una parte el automóvil se abarata y cada vez más consumidores prefieren comprar un coche a una moto. Pero es que a finales de la década las cosas se complican con la llegada de los japoneses, que ofrecen motos baratas y muy fiables. Pese a todo se ganan dos Mundiales de velocidad en 250, en 1950 con Ambrosini y en 1969 con Carruthers y muchos campeonatos y trofeos nacionales. También se lanzan modelos de éxito, como la Tornado 650 bicilíndrica o la Mojave. Benelli a principio de los 70 está en serias dificultades y el argentino Alessandro De Tomaso, con experiencia en el mundo de las 4 ruedas llega al rescate y compra la marca. ¿Qué hace De Tomaso? Pues dos cosas en mi opinión notables y acertadas. Por un lado, creo una nueva fábrica mucho más moderna y segundo, recuperando la innovación técnica lanzando la Benelli Sei, la primera moto con motor 6 cilindros del mercado y en su momento, un auténtico hito. No se anduvo por las ramas: Pidió a sus ingenieros que copiasen la Honda CB 500 y lanzaron la Benelli 500 Quattro de 1974. Ese motor con dos cilindros más se convirtió en un 750 cm3 e 6 cilindros y luego en una 900 cm3. Pese a todo la competencia japonesa seguía haciendo estragos no solo con las marcas italianas… recordemos que la industria británica de la motocicleta desapareció… en 1988, Benelli está al borde del abismo, otra vez en quiebra y llega otro salvador: Giancarlo Selci, dueño del grupo industrial Biesse. En mi opinión, es una opinión, Benelli pierde un poco el rumbo. Se lanzan los modelos Devil y Scooty que parece que van a sacar a la marca de los números rojos, pero se pierde un poco la “esencia” de la marca. Nueva crisis y nuevo “salvador” en este caso Andrea Merloni, hijo de Vittorio Merloni y dueño de otro grupo industrial, Meloni de Fabriano. Siguen son los scooters, pero con buen criterio vuelve a las motos más grandes, con la Tornado 900 “tre” de 3 cilindros de 2003 y en 2004 la “naked” TnT de 1,130 cm3…. Pero Benelli sigue sin salir del pozo. Y por fin en 2005, Benelli se convierte en Benelli Q.J. o sea pasa a formar parte del grupo Q.J que es Quianjiang. Si te crees que esta historia acaba aquí, te equivocas, porque en 2016 Q.J. es comprada por el grupo GEELY, un monstruo que tiene marcas de coches como Polestar, Lynk & CO, Proton y otras que te sonarán aún más, como Lotus, Smart o Volvo… o sea, que por dinero no será. La idea es fabricar en Italia y en China, pero mantiene la esencia de una marca histórica. El Leoncino 500 y el TRK 502 ambas con el mismo motor bicilíndrico de 500 cm3, 4 válvulas y doble árbol de levas, se fabrican en Pesaro. Que la marca Benelli sigue siendo una marca querida en toda Europa, pero sobre todo en italiana lo demuestra el que la TRK 502 una Trail bastante “endurera” en 2020 fue, el modelo más vendido en Italia. Pero la gama Benelli es en este momento muy amplia con modelos desde 125 mono cilíndrico hasta 300, 500, 750 bicilíndricos y 600 de cuatro cilindros. Parece que la estabilidad ha llegado a Benelli, que sigue haciendo motos con encanto, pero de buena calidad y a buen precio. Decíamos que era una marca muy querida en Europa y en Italia, pero también en España donde la Benelli 250 Elettronica de los años 80 fue muy popular y la Quattro y Sei muy admiradas.

Programa patrocinado por CESVIMAP, el centro de I+D de Mapfre En este podcast analizamos el Mercedes EQE el que para muchos es el hermano pequeño (luego veremos que no tan pequeño) del Mercedes-Benz EQS. Se trata de la segunda berlina eléctrica de la marca de la estrella. El Mercedes EQE tiene unas medidas de 4.946 mm de longitud, 1.961 de ancho y 1.512 mm de alto. Por ello el Mercedes EQE parece un vehículo más grande y poderoso que el EQS porque es 270 mm más corto pero 45 mm más ancho. Pero si la comparación la hacemos con el Mercedes Clase E nos encontramos a una berlina que es 23 mm más larga, 109 mm más ancha y 31 mm más alta. Todas estas medidas son el resultado de que la marca alemana utilice la plataforma EVA2 que comparte con el Mercedes EQS, y que tiene como ventajas el poder colocar las baterías bajo el suelo del coche premiando así un mayor espacio interior. Dos datos interesantes de este Mercede EQE son los 430 litros de maletero que tiene y su gran coeficiente aerodinámico de 0,22. De salida la motorización que la marca ofrece es la EQE 350+ pero por encima se encuentra el AMG 43 4MATIC y en breve llegarán a los concesionarios las mecánicas menos potentes denominadas EQE 300 y EQE 350 que se posicionaren entre el EQE 500) y el potente AMG 53 4MATIC. La batería del Mercedes EQE es de iones de litio (níquel, cobalto y manganeso), y tiene 90,56 kWh. Con ello puede presumir de una autonomía de 660 km bajo ciclo WLTP. El precio de partida hasta que lleguen opciones más bajas arranca desde los 76.000 euros. Lo que supone prácticamente la mitad que un Mercedes EQS y no demasiado más que un Mercedes Clase E. El Mercedes EQE tiene 5 estrellas En este programa os contaremos también como está el Mercedes EQE en seguridad vial en relación a sus hermanos de marca: El EQS pasó por euroncap en 2021 y tiene un poco más de seguridad ocupante adulto, la misma seguridad infantil, menos seguridad para usuarios vulnerables de la vía y un poco menos de seguridad en la categoría de ADAS. Seguridad ocupante adulto: A nivel global tiene 95%, una buena nota. Analizamos si el Mercedes EQE es el mejor coche en 2022 en seguridad adulto: Es el segundo, el primero es el Tesla Model Y en 2022 Si juntamos 2020, 21 y 22 el ranking es: Tesla Model Y 97% Mercedes EQS 96% Lynk Co o1 96% Mercedes EQE 95% Impacto frontal global con una valoración de 14,4 puntos frente a 16 posibles En el impacto frontal con 50% de solape tiene calificación adecuada el pecho del conductor y copiloto con categoría buena. Es un coche un poco más rígido de lo que debería bajo el estándar de EuroNCAP. Con 4 puntos de calificación pobre esto lastra su puntación global. En el impacto frontal 100% de solape tiene calificación adecuada, amarilla, en el pecho del acompañante trasero y del piloto. Los test se han realizado en el laboratorio Bast en Alemania. - Qué diferencias tiene con el EQS para bajar una décima en el global: El EQS deja más dummies con el pecho en color verde y eso le da unas décimos de diferencia . Impacto lateral global con una valoración de 16 frente a 16 puntos posibles En el impacto lateral contra barrera móvil el piloto tiene calificación buena En el impacto lateral contra mástil el piloto tiene calificación buena. Mucho desplazamiento del piloto al lado opuesto, calificación adecuada. Si tiene airbag central delantero y funciona bien. Alcance con puntuación 3,9 de 4. Alcance en asiento delantero con calificación buena Alcance en asiento trasero con calificación buena Rescate y extracción con una puntuación de 2 ante 2 puntos posibles Hoja de rescate - Si eCall avanzado – Si Si dispone de sistema de freno multicolisión. - Seguridad infantil: 91% en la puntuación global - Análisis de si el Mercedes EQE es el mejor coche en 2022 en seguridad infantil: Es el segundo, pero empatado con varios, el primero es el Mercedes Citan y Clase T 93% Le siguen con el 91% Mercedes EQS y EQE, Mazda CX60 y Nissan Qashqai Seguridad infantil en el impacto frontal es de 16 puntos. El dummy Q10 tiene calificación buena. El dummy Q6 tiene calificación buena. Seguridad infantil en el impacto lateral es de 8 puntos. El dummy Q10 tiene calificación buena. El dummy Q6 tiene calificación buena. Se han realizado los test con sillas de coche KidFix de Romer con marca Mercedes con respaldo para el dummy Q6 y para el dummy Q10. Características de protección y comprobación de instalación de sistemas de retención infantil con puntuación 9 de 13 y 12 de 12 posibles. Si, se puede poner un maxicosi con cinturón en el asiento central trasero pero solo con cinto, pero no una base con pata.

Welkom allemaal bij een nieuwe aflevering van onze podcast met de missie de online automotive beter maken. Vandaag is onze gast Frank Moormann van Nieuwenhuijse Groep en Max's Mobility. Frank, wil je jezelf voorstellen aan onze luisteraars? Nieuw retailconcept“Sinds 2014 werk ik bij Nieuwenhuijse Groep. Ook daarvoor heb ik altijd in de automotive branche gewerkt. Onderdeel van de groep zijn vijf Volvo-dealervestigingen in Gelderland en Overijssel. Naast Volvo onderhouden we de merken Polestar en Lynk&Co, twee merken van moederbedrijf Geely. Als Volvo-dealer ruilen we regelmatig auto's van andere merken in. Die gingen in het verleden naar de handel. We zagen kansen om deze auto's zelf te verkopen. In Apeldoorn zijn we begonnen met een nieuw retailconcept met de naam Max's Mobility. We hebben het concept vanaf de basis opnieuw uitgedacht. Het uitgangspunt was de vraag wat klanten willen, en hoe we hun verwachtingen kunnen overtreffen.”Hotelkamer “Max's Mobility is een merkonafhankelijk autobedrijf met een bijzondere uitstraling. Er staan auto's in de showroom, maar de showroom is omgedoopt tot dancefloor. De ontvangstruimte is een lobby met een bar, met een echte barista die het klanten naar de zin maakt. Belangrijke uitgangspunten van het concept zijn transparantie, plezier en comfort. Er vallen veel ‘oehs' en ‘aaahs' als mensen voor het eerst binnenkomen. Het uitgangspunt is hospitality. Klanten kunnen gebruikmaken van flexibele ruimtes voor vergaderingen waarbij wij de catering verzorgen. We bieden zelfs een hotelkamer aan. Het is een knipoog naar gastvrijheid, maar de kamer huren kan ook.”Frictieloos “Voor Max's Mobility hebben we jonge mensen uit verschillende branches aangenomen. Die mix zorgt voor een andere aankoopervaring. Verder streven we offline en online naar een frictieloze klantbeleving. We werken hoofdzakelijk op afspraak. Tijdens het bezoek ligt de nadruk op ontzorging en beleving. Tijdens proefrit krijgen klanten een routekaart met een miniroadtrip over de Veluwe mee. Online is het mogelijk om een auto te reserveren, aan te betalen en te kopen. We zorgen ook voor snelle leadopvolging. Een online aanvraag beantwoorden we binnen 30 seconden. Verder bieden we verlengde garantie aan en zijn we bezig met een eigen leaseconcept voor occasions. In de toekomst willen we Max's Mobility op andere plaatsen gaan uitrollen.”Frank, dankjewel voor het gesprek. Luisteraars, volgende week is er weer een nieuwe aflevering met een nieuwe gast.

De kleding- en electronicabranche doet dit al jaren door 360º beeld te gebruiken bij presentaties. En dat werkt. Mensen zijn op zoek naar volledigheid tot in detail. Als webshop profiteer je daar optimaal van. Daarom is 360º presentatie ook de manier om de aandacht voor consumenten te trekken die op zoek zijn naar een auto. Autobedrijven die werken met 360º beeld, -spins-, merken dat klanten het enorm waarderen en ontvangen beduidend meer leads. Consumenten krijgen zekerheid en bevestiging van de juiste prijs bij het bekijken van een spin.

Lynk Co 01 en AutoFM Después de más de 1250 km por carretera, ciudad y autovía en 10 días con un Lynk Co 01 en AutoFM pasamos a comentar todos los detalles que entendemos son relevantes. El Lynk & Co 01 es un SUV compacto, segmento C, que nace en 2017 y su llegada a España se produce en 2021. Es un coche de 2017 que ha pasado por Euro NCAP en 2021 y está a la altura de vehículos como el Mercedes Benz EQS. Todos los seguidores de AutoFM saben que en 2020 los estándares de seguridad se endurecieron muchísimo de forma que un coche de 2017 saque sobresaliente en 2021 en seguridad es más que destacable y quizás por eso nos llamó la atención en AutoFM. Lynk & Co es prima hermana de Volvo y utiliza la plataforma del Volvo XC 40 para su Lynk & Co 01. Tiene una versión con mecánica híbrida (HEV) y otra híbrida enchufable (PHEV). En Auto FM hemos probado la versión híbrida enchufable (PHEV). Precios del Lynk Co 01 en España El segmento de los SUV compactos está muy reñido y por eso Lynk & Co apuesta por una forma diferente de comercialización sin dejar de prestar las fórmulas tradicionales. Puedes disfrutar de un Lynk & Co 01 en España de cuatro formas: Membership Mensual Compra el Coche Membership (sin coche) Membership para empresas ¿Qué tiempos son los que estima Lynk Co para que el mercado del automóvil tenga al menos un 25% de uso en formato “Netflix”? En el caso de Lynk & Co, los KPI son los miembros y el sharing. Si los coches se comparten, no habrá tantos vehículos en las calles y se podrá aprovechar mejor el espacio urbano. El futuro de la movilidad no está en manos de los fabricantes de coches. El futuro será cómo saber utilizar movilidad. Lynk & Co vende movilidad a un cliente, no un coche. Además de querer cambiar una industria, el objetivo de la compañía es trabajar en la idea de que de las experiencias ya son más importantes que las posesiones. La gente empieza a gastar más dinero en hacer cosas que en comprar cosas. ¿Por qué no hacerlo en la movilidad? Lynk-Co-AutoFM-formas-de-uso Versiones del Lynk Co 01 Hay dos versiones y dos colores, la simplificación de tener todo el equipamiento de serie, solo dos versiones de motorización, la híbrida y la híbrida enchufable y el color azul o negro para elegir. Además cuenta con la posibilidad de montar un gancho para remolque, algo mucho más habitual de lo que la mayoría de lectores puede pensar. Lynk Co 01 con membership mensual Puedes disfrutar del Lynk Co 01 con membership mensual de 500 euros. ¿Qué es un membership mensual? Bien en una plataforma de cursos online o en Netflix, un membership es la forma de definir un pago mensual por un servicio que o producto que puedes cancelar en cualquier momento. Los tiempos de comprar un coche en propiedad están dejando paso a otros tiempos, el alquiler por minutos, el renting para particulares y ahora tambien el membership mensual de Lynk Co. Por 500 euros al mes puedes recorrer hasta 1.250 km al mes, si haces más tendrás un recargo por kilómetro extra recorrido. Dentro de los 500 euros al mes va incluido todo menos el combustible, en el caso del Lynk Co 01 es gasolina tanto en la versión híbrida como en la híbrida enchufable. Los kilómetros que no utilices cada mes se acumularán o compensarán con los meses siguientes hasta un máximo de 15.000 km/h año. No hay permanencia, puedes tener el membership mensual de Lynk Co tres meses y luego darte de baja, por ejemplo. El Lynk Co 01 con membership mensual incluye mantenimiento, averías, seguro e impuesto de circulación. Puedes prestar el Lynk Co 01 con membership mensual a amigos o desconoccidos para que se reduzca la cuota de 500 euros al mes. Lynk Co 01 con compra También es posible utilizar el Lynk Co 01 con compra tradicional: Lynk Co 01 Híbrido enchufable (PHEV) 44.500 € (IVA INCLUIDO) Hasta 81 km de autonomía (conducción por ciudad WLTP). En AutoFM, haciendo un uso mixto se llega a tener 50 km de autonomía real en 100% eléctrico si la conducción es relajada. Lynk Co 01 con membership sin coche A finales de 2022 en España vas a poder conducir un Lynk Co 01 sin comprarlo y sin el membership mensual de Lynk Co ¿Cómo? Con membership sin coche de Lynk Co. Descargarte la aplicación. Tiene que crearte una cuenta de usuario en Lynk Co. Pedir un coche prestado cuando lo necesites Sin cuotas mensuales; solo pagas por cada préstamo. Para cada reserva del membership sin coche, Lynk Co reserva 100 euros de franquicia que sirve para cubrir cualquier cargo adicional, como ampliaciones de reserva, devoluciones fuera de hora o gastos de combustible. Al finalizar el uso, si no hay incidencias, Lynk Co abona los 100 euros de franquicia. Lynk Co 01 para empresas Las empresas también necesitan coches y en ellas también ha pensado Lynk Co, las opciones disponibles son: Membership mensual. Desde 500 euros al mes Renting desde 467 euros al mes Compra desde 36.777 euros ¿Qué ventajas hay frente al renting que conocemos hoy? -Al tratarse de un renting por suscripción mensual Lynk & Co no ofrece permanencia, a diferencia de un renting tradicional donde la permanencia oscila entre uno y cuatros años. - A través de la suscripción la marca entrega donde el cliente le indique un vehículo en perfecto estado, apostando así por un modelo de menor consumo. - Dentro de la suscripción mensual, el cliente dispone de la opción el Car Sharing, donde puede optar por compartir el coche con terceros a través de la plataforma digital de Lynk & Co (incluido en el seguro). - El vehículo va con todo incluido sin variar la cuota mensual a diferencia de un renting. ¿Cómo se compra o contrata el Lynk Co 01? Puedes solicitar una prueba pero la compra por el medio que sea siempre será online. ¿Hay concesionarios de Lynk Co? No hay concesionarios de Lynk Co. Recientemente se abrirán unos centros de encuentro en los que se podrá entender mejor la filosofía de la marca, pero para probar el coche se debe realizar una reserva de prueba de conducción. Si alguien compra el coche de forma tradicional o por suscripción ¿Cómo y dónde se realiza la entrega y a qué talleres se llevará para las revisiones o mantenimientos? Tanto el formato de suscripción como el de compra del vehículo, funcionan de la misma manera. La entrega del vehículo se realiza en el HUB de Madrid o en los diferentes puntos de entrega de los que Lynk & Co dispone alrededor de España. La compañía también ofrece la opción “WYW” (wherever you want), con un coste adicional de 150€ donde dan el servicio de entrega en tu domicilio o la ubicación donde el cliente desee en cualquier otro punto del país. En relación con las revisiones, mantenimientos o averías, la compañía cuenta con diferentes talleres de casa Volvo. Los clientes pueden solicitar la lista de talleres con los Lynk & Co tiene alianza para realizar estos servicios. ¿Los neumáticos entran dentro de la cuota de suscripción, cada cuántos kilómetros se cambian? El vehículo cuenta con un servicio de mantenimiento, es decir, el cliente no se hace cargo de realizar cambios de aceite ni ningún otro líquido, así como tampoco de realizar el cambio de neumáticos, pues estos serán reemplazados por los nuevos cada vez que el coche vaya a revisión y el equipo técnico en taller considere que por el desgaste haya que realizar el cambio. El kilometraje puede variar dependiendo del tipo de conducción de cada cliente, por lo que no hay un kilometraje estipulado. Seguridad en el Lynk Co 01 Seguridad adultos en el Lynk Co 01 Seguridad Infantil en el Lynk Co 01 Seguridad para otros usuarios vulnerables de la vía en el Lynk Co 01 ADAS en el Lynk Co 01 En un formato de suscripción activo habrá coches nuevos, pero con el paso del tiempo no serán todos los coches nuevos: ¿Se entregarán coches de hasta cuántos kilómetros en el formato de suscripción? El automóvil se verá y se sentirá como nuevo, aunque haya sido utilizado por otro usuario anteriormente. La marca quiere sacar el máximo partido a cada automóvil que produce, poniendo así nuevamente en valor el concepto de movilidad sostenible. Todos los coches de Lynk & Co reciben un mantenimiento regular, sus funciones de conectividad se actualizan con frecuencia y, por supuesto, tiene lugar una limpieza profesional por dentro y por fuera entre los miembros para mantenerlos en óptimas condiciones." Tras la finalización de cada contrato, al automóvil se le realiza una revisión en la cual se contempla el kilometraje, así como otros factores de desgaste y el equipo técnico tomará la decisión de si otro cliente de suscripción u otro tipo de mercado pueden disponer del vehículo. El seguro: ¿Qué entra y qué no entra en el formato de suscripción? Lynk & Co ofrece un seguro a todo riesgo, con una franquicia de 500€. Esto quiere decir que siempre que el cliente se vea afectado de forma ajena no tendrán que infringir en ningún otro gasto. Todos los coches Lynk & Co vinculados a un Membership Mensual disponen de seguro a todo riesgo, que da cobertura a cualquier conductor autorizado frente a reclamaciones por lesiones o daños materiales en caso de accidente. ¿Qué coste tiene el exceso de kilómetros? ¿Si me paso de kilómetros un mes, pero compenso el mes siguiente con menos hay penalización? En el caso de realizar la suscripción mensual, el automóvil se desgasta cuanto más se conduce, lo que significa que tendrá más costes de mantenimiento. El cliente puede recorrer hasta 1250 km al mes (15 000 km/año) y los kilómetros que el cliente no haya utilizado se acumularán o compensarán con los meses siguientes. Luego habrá un suplemento de 0,15 € por kilómetro extra.

Euro NCAP nace para exigir más los fabricantes de coches y hacer impactos representativos de la realidad europea. ¿Cómo se calculan las estrellas en Euro NCAP? https://www.euroncap.com/es/results/bmw/ix/44196 Otros informes de seguridad: VW ID.3: https://autofm.es/progrma-especial-autofm-es-seguro-el-volkswagen-id-3/ Toyota Yaris: https://autofm.es/podcast-informe-seguridad-toyota-yaris/ Mazda MX-30: https://autofm.es/informe-seguridad-es-seguro-el-mazda-mx-30/ Honda Jazz: https://autofm.es/podcast-analisis-es-seguro-el-honda-jazz/ Audi A3: https://autofm.es/podcast-es-seguro-el-audi-a3/ Isuzu D Max: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-isuzu-d-max-audios-mp3_rf_64892289_1.html Land Rover Defender: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-land-rover-defender-audios-mp3_rf_66205155_1.html Seat Leon: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-seat-leon-audios-mp3_rf_66365169_1.html Kia Sorento: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-kia-sorento-audios-mp3_rf_66701595_1.html Honda e: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-honda-e-audios-mp3_rf_66906016_1.html Hyundai i10: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-hyundai-i10-audios-mp3_rf_67227626_1.html Cupra Formentor: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-cupra-formentor-audios-mp3_rf_68477510_1.html Polestar 2: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-polestar-2-audios-mp3_rf_68996112_1.html Dacia Sandero: https://autofm.es/analisis-de-seguridad-del-dacia-sandero/ VW ID.4: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-volkswagen-id-4-audios-mp3_rf_71458614_1.html Skoda Enyaq iV: https://autofm.es/comentamos-las-cinco-estrellas-del-skoda-enyaq-iv/ Renault Arkana: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-renault-arkana-audios-mp3_rf_71823565_1.html Citroen C4: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-citroen-c4-audios-mp3_rf_71844607_1.html Renault Kangoo: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-renault-kangoo-audios-mp3_rf_73447949_1.html Opel Mokka: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-opel-mokka-audios-mp3_rf_75502663_1.html Genesis: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-genesis-g80-gv80-audios-mp3_rf_76774018_1.html Subaru Outback: https://www.ivoox.com/subaru-outback-informe-seguridad-audios-mp3_rf_77245069_1.html Audi Q4 e-tron: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-audi-q4-e-tron-audios-mp3_rf_78081304_1.html Toyota Mirai: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-toyota-mirai-audios-mp3_rf_79142351_1.html Hyundai Bayon: https://www.ivoox.com/es-seguro-hyundai-bayon-informe-seguridad-audios-mp3_rf_79479771_1.html Hyundai Tucson: https://www.ivoox.com/es-seguro-hyundai-tucson-informe-seguridad-audios-mp3_rf_80865976_1.html Hyundai Ioniq5: https://www.ivoox.com/es-seguro-hyundai-ioniq5-audios-mp3_rf_81021946_1.html Toyota Yaris Cross: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-toyota-yaris-cross-audios-mp3_rf_81131760_1.html Lynk and Co: https://www.ivoox.com/informe-seguridad-lynk-co-01-audios-mp3_rf_82492518_1.html VW Caddy: https://www.ivoox.com/euroncap-volkswagen-caddy-seguridad-adulto-seguridad-infantil-ayudas-audios-mp3_rf_83295630_1.html NIO ES8: https://www.ivoox.com/euroncap-nio-es8-seguridad-adulto-seguridad-infantil-ayudas-audios-mp3_rf_85217346_1.html Presenta: Fernando Rivas https://twitter.com/rivasportauto Coordina: Jose Lagunar https://twitter.com/JoseLagunar Puedes seguirnos en nuestra web: https://autofm.es/ y https://www.podcastmotor.es Twiter: https://twitter.com/AutoFmRadio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/autofmradio/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC57czZy-ctfV02t_PeNXCAQ Contacto: info@autofm.es

Cuál es el coche más seguro para viajar con niños según Euro NCAP es la pregunta que vamos a resolver en el episodio 200 del podcast de seguridad vial y educación vial de RiveKids con la ayuda de Fernando Rivas de AutoFM. En la colaboración de RiveKids y AutoFM para llevar la seguridad vial a todas las familias hay una sección especial que son los informes de seguridad Euro NCAP. Desde 2020 todos los coches que han pasado por Euro NCAP han sido analizados de forma minuciosa comentando y explicando todo lo que hay debajo de las estrellas Euro NCAP.

Seguramente sea mucho más sencillo responder a la pregunta inversa: ¿Cuál es el coche menos seguro para viajar con niños? Mejor vamos a hacerlo en positivo, intuyo que me dices que es más sencillo decir cual es el más inseguro porque hay más igualdad en la parte de mucha seguridad que en la de poca seguridad Efectivamente, el nivel de seguridad ha aumentado tanto en los coches que hay más empate en la parte alta, lo cual es buenísima noticia, que en la parte baja de la clasificación. Lo mejor va a ser primero clasificar por la categoría de seguridad infantil que marca Euro NCAP y después ya bajar al terreno de los crash test que están en una subcategoría. Vamos a analizar más de 30 coches, eso si, de forma ágil, que se han ensayado en 2020 y 2021 porque son los años comparables, en 2019 el requerimiento de seguridad era más suave y por eso no podemos compararlo con 2020 y 2021. Efectivamente, nos centramos en 2020 y 2021. Primero vamos a la categoría general en la que se mezcla, para la puntuación tanto los crash testo como la sencillez en instalar los sistemas de retención infantil o el número de plazas en las que se pueden instalar. Esta clasificación no es 100% lo que sucede en caso de accidente Efectivamente, a lo que sucede en caso de accidente se le añaden componentes como la facilidad de instalación que puede desvirtuar el valor de esta puntuación global. Vamos a la clasificación global de Euro NCAP para la seguridad infantil Debajo de esta calificación general hay mucha tela que cortar. Vamos a cortarla: En las notas del programa dejamos el enlace a la web de Euro NCAP dónde se explica con más detalle: https://www.euroncap.com/es/seguridad-en-los-veh%C3%ADculos/descripci%C3%B3n-de-las-valoraciones/protecci%C3%B3n-de-ocupantes-infantiles/ Hay tres categorías que dan forma a esta puntuación que son: 1. Rendimiento del asiento de seguridad para niños en el ensayo de choque 2. Disposiciones en el vehículo 3. Comprobación de la instalación del SRI (El uso incorrecto de los asientos de seguridad para niños puede atribuirse a errores del usuario o a incompatibilidades entre tales asientos y el vehículo) ¿El peso de la parte de los crash test será la mayoría de la nota global? No, los crash test representan menos de la mitad de la nota global, representan el 49% Euro NCAP pondera de la siguiente forma la valoración global de seguridad infantil: 1. Rendimiento del asiento de seguridad para niños en el ensayo de choque con un 49% 2. Disposiciones en el vehículo con un 26,5% 3. Comprobación de la instalación del SRI con un 24,5% Ahora entiendo porqué quieres quitar dos de las 3 categorías para saber qué coche es el más seguro para viajar con niños según Euro NCAP Vamos a quedarnos solo con la seguridad en caso de accidente, de impacto: Impacto Frontal Impacto Lateral Seguridad Global Audi Q4 e tron 16,0 8,0 24,0 Ford Mustang Mach e 16,0 8,0 24,0 Genesis G80 16,0 8,0 24,0 Genesis GV80 16,0 8,0 24,0 Isuzu D Max 16,0 8,0 24,0 Land Rover Defender 16,0 8,0 24,0 Mazda MX30 16,0 8,0 24,0 NIO ES08 16,0 8,0 24,0 Polestar 2 16,0 8,0 24,0 Renault Kangoo 16,0 8,0 24,0 Skoda Enyaq iV 16,0 8,0 24,0 Toyota Mirai 16,0 8,0 24,0 VW ID3 16,0 8,0 24,0 VW ID4 16,0 8,0 24,0 BMW iX 16,0 8,0 24,0 Genesis G70 16,0 8,0 24,0 Genesis GV70 16,0 8,0 24,0 Mercedes EQS 16,0 8,0 24,0 Nissan townstar 16,0 8,0 24,0 Link & Co 01 15,9 8,0 23,9 Hyundai Tucson 16,0 7,8 23,8 Nissan qashqai 15,8 8,0 23,8 Cupra Formentor 15,6 8,0 23,6 Hyundai Ioniq 5 15,6 8,0 23,6 Cupra Leon 15,4 8,0 23,4 Seat Leon 15,4 8,0 23,4 VW Caddy 15,3 8,0 23,3 Subaru Outback 16,0 7,0 23,0 Toyota Yaris 15,0 8,0 23,0 Kia Sorento 14,9 8,0 22,9 Honda Jazz 14,5 7,8 22,3 Toyota Yaris Cross 14,3 8,0 22,3 MG Marvel R 14,0 8,0 22,0 Citroen C4 13,9 8,0 21,9 Fiat 500 e 14,8 7,0 21,8 Honda e 15,3 6,2 21,5 Hyundai Bayon 14,6 6,8 21,4 Audi A3 12,7 8,0 20,7 Skoda Fabia 12,9 7,2 20,1 Hyundai i10 13,4 6,0 19,4 Opel Mokka 10,7 8,0 18,7 Dacia Logan 10,6 8,0 18,6 Dacia Sandero 10,6 8,0 18,6 Dacia Spring 9,5 8,0 17,5 Renault Zoe 9,3 4,0 13,3 Dos preguntas que los oyentes se están haciendo ahora mismo: 1- ¿Esta categoría es la definitiva o podemos profundizar más? 2- ¿Esto es para todos los niños o se refiere a un tipo de niño en concreto? Esto es para niños de 6 años en silla de coche con protección en cabeza y para niños de 10 años en alzador sin respaldo. Desde 2016 todos los ensayos se realizan con los dummies Q6 y Q10 en una determinada posición: El Q6 detrás del piloto en el impacto frontal con 50% de solape y el Q10 en alzador sin respaldo es el que se lleva el impacto directo en el lateral al lado del conductor. Esto no es suficiente, vamos a profundizar muchos más separando impacto frontal de impacto lateral ¿El impacto frontal no vale lo mismo en la nota que el lateral? No, el lateral vale menos, el lateral vale el 33% de la nota y el frontal el 66%.

No, hay relación pero ni mucho menos directa, intuitiva o lineal. El tema de añadir la seguridad de adulto ha sido para desempatar y ayudar en la toma de decisiones a las familias, pero siendo estrictos y con los datos de Euro NCAP el empate es de 17 coches. Por cierto, ¿en la seguridad para adultos también vale la mitad el crash test lateral que el frontal? En seguridad para ocupante adulto la suma es más compleja porque son dos impactos frontales y dos laterales, pero el peso del global frontal lateral y del global lateral es del 50% cada uno.

It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story so you don't have to.   Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too.   FORD TO USE GOOGLE ANDROID "Ford will install Google's Android operating system on all new vehicles starting in 2023, giving passengers access to more personalized services and potentially unlocking new lines of business for the automaker." says Axios: "Ford's decision, part of a broader technology partnership with the tech giant, is an acknowledgment that carmakers need Silicon Valley's help to adapt to seismic changes in the transportation industry."   "Android Automotive OS is an embedded version of Android that Google developed specifically for automakers to include in their vehicle models.  The infotainment systems in Ford and Lincoln vehicles will be built on top of the Android operating system. Eventually millions of Ford and Lincoln vehicles will be powered by the Android Automotive OS, which means that popular Google apps and services such as Maps and Google Assistant will be built-in to the vehicle's infotainment system without having to sync a cellphone. " according to FutureCar: "The Android OS supports OTA updates, so Ford customers will always have the latest software installed in their vehicles. Ford vehicles will also feature Google Maps as the primary navigation provider. Google Maps is one of the company's most used apps and includes voice-guided turn-by-turn directions, real-time traffic information, automatic rerouting, lane guidance and more.  The open-source Android ecosystem also allows Ford and third-party developers to build their own apps that provide a more-personalized ownership experience for Ford customers."   We've seen this in Polestar 2 and Volvo XC40.   https://www.axios.com/ford-google-android-vehicles-6bb6d356-9343-4e77-9ccb-ca9e67373e15.html   https://www.futurecar.com/4395/Ford-&-Google-Plan-to-Reinvent-the-Connected-Vehicle-Experience-with-New-Android-OS-Partnership   VW CEO TELLS MANAGERS TO PREPARE FOR ‘SIGNIFICANT’ MARKET UPTURN "Volkswagen AG Chief Executive Officer Herbert Diess provided an upbeat outlook for the back half of this year even as Covid-19 and a global shortage of semiconductors is poised to hit first-quarter results." reports Bloomberg: "Europe’s largest automaker lost the top spot in global sales to Toyota Motor Corp. last year, but it sold more electric cars than Tesla Inc. in Europe and is escalating the world’s biggest push into purely battery-powered vehicles. VW will roll out the ID.4 crossover under its namesake brand in 2021 and add more versions of the Audi e-tron and Porsche Taycan models. The two luxury brands generate the biggest chunk of profits for the German industrial giant. VW expects to sell roughly 600,000 purely battery-powered cars this year"   And they're all profitable.   https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-02-01/vw-ceo-tells-mangers-to-prepare-for-significant-market-upturn   GASOLINE IS BECOMING WORTHLESS "You still have to pay a couple bucks for a gallon of gas (more in California, as always), but automakers are discovering that gas-powered cars may be a liability that detracts from their valuations, instead of an asset that enhances values." according to Yahoo Finance: "New research from Morgan Stanley argues that traditional internal combustion engines—the mainstay of automobiles for more than a century—are destined to become money-losers as early as 2030. he Morgan Stanley analysis suggests market forces may now drive a move from carbon-fueled vehicles to electric ones, at least as much as government policy. The investing firm recently surveyed institutional investors on the value of internal-combustion technology at GM and Ford. Seventeen percent said ICE technology had no value or negative value today. Sixty percent rated ICE technology as slightly positive. But essentially all of the growth in powertrain adoption in coming years will be electric, while ICE powertrains are certain to decline. With investors viewing internal-combustion powertrains as a dying technology, there’s likely to be little new investment, with research dollars flowing instead to the electrification efforts investors value. That will speed innovation and lower costs."   https://finance.yahoo.com/news/gasoline-is-becoming-worthless-210636353.html   TESLA RECALLS 135,000 CARS AFTER PUSHING BACK AGAINST REGULATORS "Tesla (TSLA) is recalling 135,000 Tesla Model S sedans and Model X SUVs because their large center touchscreens can fail. Tesla had previously objected to a push to issue a recall from regulators, as it claimed that the problem wasn't a safety issue." according to CNN: "The recall applies to some 2012 through 2018 Model S and 2016 through 2018 Model X vehicles. Under the recall, which will begin on March 30, Tesla must notify owners of cars with the failure-prone touchscreens and replace a computer chip that controls the screen. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) considers this a safety issue because without a functioning center screen, drivers lose the display for the car's backup camera and controls for the window defroster and defogger., Tesla said in its letter to NHTSA that it will make the recall repairs for free and will offer a discount on upgraded screen hardware."   From NHTSA: ""We note that your report states that Tesla believes that this matter does not have a safety risk," read the letter, signed by Alex Ansley, chief of NHTSA's Recall Management Division. "In our view, this statement has no force or effect in terms of Tesla's obligation to undertake and complete the recall, and NHTSA does not agree with it.""   https://edition.cnn.com/2021/02/02/business/tesla-screen-recall/index.html   FIRST LOOK AT TESLA MODEL S AND X FRONT ‘MEGACASTING’ "A recently leaked image from the Fremont Factory has provided what could very well be the first look at the Tesla Model S and Model X refresh’s front “megacastings.” Provided that the leaked images are accurate, it would appear that Tesla’s updated flagship vehicles would feature some of the company’s most advanced casting technologies. " reports TEslarati: "Model S and Model X refresh features two castings in the front underbody and two in the rear underbody. This means that the flagship vehicles’ front underbody is now tied together by the dash and central underbody. The rear underbody, on the other hand, now features two castings linked together by stamped and welded aluminum. With such a system in place, there could be one megacast for each of the flagship vehicles’ wheels."   https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-model-s-model-x-refresh-megacast-first-look-photos/   LYNK & CO ZERO EV INTERIOR TEASER "Geely's Lynk & Co has just released a new teaser of the interior of its upcoming high performances and long-range all-electric model - Lynk & Co Zero. We must admit that it looks cool. There is a dashboard display that reminds us of the one in Ford Mustang Mach-E, and a 15.4" central touchscreen that, on the other hand, reminds us of the one in Teslas." says InsideEVS: "The Zero EV is expected on the Chinese market in the fourth quarter of this year, as the first model based on the Sustainable Electric Architecture (SEA). The specs will be really strong, including:0-100 km/h (62 mph) in less than 4 seconds. long-range of more than 700 km (435 miles) - under the NEDC test cycle"   https://insideevs.com/news/484189/lynk-co-zero-interior-teaser/   PUSH TO GO ELECTRIC COULD WIPE OUT JAPAN’S CHEAP MICROCARS "Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga pledged last year to decarbonize Japan by 2050, with plans to ban the sale of new gasoline-only vehicles by the mid-2030s. That’s created a dilemma for Honda Motor Co., Nissan Motor Co. and other makers of compact cars, with the added cost of technology making them less affordable for buyers." says Bloomberg: " Prices for electric-vehicle battery packs fell 15% from 2019 to 2020, whereas plug-in hybrid packs only fell 5%, according to BloombergNEF. Hybrid pack prices didn’t change significantly. The worst scenario for Japanese kei makers is that affordable electric cars from China will enter the market and lure kei customers, Miyao said. SAIC-GM-Wuling Automobile Co.’s four-seater hatchback Mini EV has become a best-seller in China and is one of the cheapest on the market, costing less than $5,000."   https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-01-31/push-to-go-electric-could-wipe-out-japan-s-cheap-microcars   NISSAN NOTE E-POWER ORDERS MORE THAN DOUBLE THE MONTHLY TARGET "Orders for the all-new Nissan Note e-POWER have surpassed 20,000—more than double the compact car’s monthly sales target—since it was released in Japan in late December. (Earlier post.) Equipped with Nissan’s e-POWER electrified powertrain, the fully refreshed Note went on sale on 23 December with a monthly sales target of 8,000 vehicles. As of 1 February, Nissan has received orders for 20,044." says Green Car Congress: "e-POWER comprises a high-output battery and the powertrain which is integrated with gasoline engine, power generator, inverter and a motor. In conventional hybrid systems, the wheels are driven by an electric motor and a gasoline engine. However, in the e-POWER system, the gasoline engine is not connected to the wheels; it simply charges the battery.

The overall auto market was up 7.7% in volume year-on-year, with the country’s bestsellers being the Audi e-tron and Peugeot e-2008." says Dr Max Holland for Clean Technica: "January’s combined plugin result of 80.66% comprised just over 53.0% full battery electrics (BEVs) and just over 27.6% plugin hybrids (PHEVs), a slight swing toward PHEVs from full year 2020’s contributions."   "Strong volume by the Peugeot e-2008, the Volvo XC40 and Polestar 2 saw them join the Mercedes-Benz EQC and Nissan LEAF in the top 6 positions in January"   https://cleantechnica.com/2021/02/02/norways-best-ever-january-at-81-plugin-electric-share/     NEW QUESTION OF THE WEEK Have you seen the social media meme of putting two photo’s side by side and titling them ‘how to started’ and ‘how it’s going’.

It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too.   GM'S NEW EV FOCUS...AND LOGO "General Motors is changing its corporate logo as it launches a new marketing strategy focused on all-electric vehicles. It is only the fifth time the Detroit automaker has conducted a major redesign of its logo since being founded in 1908." reports NBC News: "The new logo features the automaker’s “gm” initials in lowercase letters with the “m” underlined as a nod to its Ultium battery cell platform that will underpin its new EVs, said Deborah Wahl, GM’s chief marketing officer. The bright blue letters are inside a rounded box of the same color. The new logo, which was designed in-house, accompanies a new “everyone in” tagline and advertising campaign focused on EVs. The “ev” to begin the tagline is in the new blue color while the other letters are in white."   https://www.nbcnews.com/business/autos/general-motors-debuts-new-corporate-logo-focus-electric-vehicles-n1253505   Bloomberg notes: "CEO Mary Barra will tout the company’s electric-vehicle strategy in a speech next week at CES, formerly known as the Consumer Electronics Show, where the automaker will provide a peek at a plug-in Chevrolet pickup truck. GM plans to spend $27 billion on battery-electric and self-driving vehicles and roll-out 30 electric models globally by the end of 2025. Last year, a Wall Street analyst prodded the company to change its corporate name to Ultium, the moniker GM has given to car batteries co-developed with LG Chem Ltd."   https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-01-08/gm-changes-corporate-logo-to-plug-its-electric-vehicle-strategy   CHINA'S SEARCH ENGINE BAIDU ALLIES WITH VOLVO'S OWNER GEELY "China’s leading search engine, Baidu, has entered the fray to take on Tesla and a clutch of domestic smart electric car makers through a new partnership with vehicle manufacturer Geely." according to the South China MOrning Post: "Baidu, which already runs one of the world’s largest open autonomous-driving platforms, plans to use Geely’s production facilities and development capabilities to reinforce its foray into car manufacturing, according to two sources with knowledge of the matter. Shares of Geely Automobile shot up by a fifth in Hong Kong on Friday. Baidu joins a crowded field of more than 200 licensed electric car makers of all shapes and stripes, many of them backed by China’s major technology companies. Alibaba Group is invested in Xpeng, while Tencent backs NIO."   https://www.scmp.com/business/companies/article/3117004/chinese-search-giant-baidu-jumps-smart-electric-car-fray-teaming   HYUNDAI'S CONFUSION OVER APPLE ELECTRIC CAR TIE-UP "Hyundai has sparked confusion over a possible electric car tie-up with Apple. The South Korean car company initially said it was in the "early stage" of talks with the iPhone maker about a possible electric car partnership. But hours later it backtracked and said it was talking with a number of potential partners without naming Apple." according to BBC News: "Hyundai's share price rose more than 20% when the tie-up was announced. "Apple and Hyundai are in discussions but they are at an early stage and nothing has been decided," it said in a statement which was later revised. Hyundai's value shot up $9bn (£6.5bn) after the Apple announcement. While an updated statement said it was talking to a number of companies about a possible electric car tie-up including Apple, a later version omitted the US tech firm"   https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-55583504   CADILLAC LYRIQ INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM WILL BE 33 INCHES " Cadillac just dropped more information on the massive infotainment screen going in its upcoming Lyriq EV, and the details are intriguing.  The 33-inch LED screen spanning the width of the dash gave them plenty of real estate to get creative. Customizability and flexibility are two elements Cadillac is highlighting. There will supposedly be display themes “to fit the driver’s mood and personality.” " says Autoblog; "One icon we’ll point out is the colorful Google Maps icon in the menu list. Will Cadillac actually use Google Maps as the navigation system from the factory in the Lyriq? Perhaps. It tends to be exponentially better than any manufacturer-designed navigation system. Cadillac says more in-depth info will be available on January 12, so check back for a deeper dive then"   https://www.autoblog.com/2021/01/07/cadillac-lyriq-infotainment-system-info/   GERMAN EV MARKET REACHES ESCAPE VELOCITY "Germany, Europe’s largest auto market and the 4th largest in the world, achieved 26.6% plugin electric vehicle share in December. This is a stunning ascent from the 4.0% share seen in December 2019. The Volkswagen brand dominated Germany’s full battery electric sales in 2020, taking almost 24% of the market, with Renault runner-up at 16%." reports Dr Max Holland for CleanTechnica: "December’s 26.6% combined plugin share was led by full battery electric vehicles (BEVs) at 14.0% of the market, with plugin hybrids (PHEVs) close behind at 12.6% share. We don’t yet have the full details of BEV model sales for December, but we do have some information on the top 5 best selling BEV brands for the year as a whole. Volkswagen (with the e-Golf, ID.3, e-Up!, and perhaps a few ID.4) strongly led Germany’s full year sales of BEVs, with almost 24% share of the market. However, the year’s single best selling BEV model (by far) was the Renault ZOE, with over 31,000 sales. We can deduce that the runner up was a close race between the Volkswagen e-Golf, and the VW ID.3, with the Tesla Model 3, and Hyundai Kona, not too far behind."   https://cleantechnica.com/2021/01/08/german-ev-market-reaches-escape-velocity-record-27-share-in-december/   VW ID.4 SPY PHOTOS SHOW ODD LED LIGHTS "Volkswagen only just revealed the all-electric ID.4 in September. It’ll be the first of the company’s EVs to reach US shores, though spy photos have shown the company is developing another, sportier version called the ID.4 GTX. It’s expected to receive a coupe-like silhouette and more power, as previous spy photos have shown. However, a new batch shows VW might be trying to keep its development under warps." according to Motor1: "That powertrain would include a dual-motor setup that’ll produce 302 horsepower (225 kilowatts) that’ll hit the ground through an all-wheel-drive system. The extra oomph will allow the variant to hit 62 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour) in 6.2 seconds, which is far quicker than the 8.5 seconds needed for the single-motor model. However, the extra power will come at a cost. The range is expected to take a hit from 520 kilometers to 470 kilometers (323 to 292 miles) with the WLTP test cycle."   https://www.motor1.com/news/464628/volkswagen-id4-gtx-spy-photos/   ALLEGO TO USE ALPITRONIC AND TRITIUM CHARGERS "Allego has announced that in the future it will also rely on fast charging columns from Tritium and Alpitronic. Until now, the Dutch operator has mainly relied on DC columns from the Portuguese manufacturer Efacec." says electrive: "The first fast chargers from Alpitronic and Tritium are to be installed at new Allego HPC sites during the first half of 2021. In the image Allego posted on related social media posts about the announcement, an Alpitronic Hypercharger in the 150-kW version and a 50-kW charger from Tritium can be seen in Allego’s white and green colors. The Australian manufacturer Tritium is best known in Europe for its Ionity charging columns"   https://www.electrive.com/2021/01/08/allego-to-use-alpitronic-and-tritium-chargers/     COVID CRISIS HOLDS PERIL, BUT ALSO PROMISE, FOR LYNK & CO "Lynk & CO is taking an unconventional route to break into Europe, by promoting a month-to-month membership model that encourages sharing and relying solely on social media and events to build brand recognition." says Automotive News Europe: "Lynk & CO has embarked on an aggressive advertising push in the fourth quarter to sign up "members" for a waiting list, either to buy a Lynk & CO 01 (starting price in France: 41,500 euros, or $50,900, while the plug-in hybrid Volvo XC40 starts at 47,400 euros) or to take a monthly subscription at 500 euros.

We're not sure what that electric vehicle may be, where it will be sold, or even what form factor it will take. One benefit to modern architecture designed to support electrified vehicles is that it's basically a flat platform that can support nearly any type of body on top." says Autoblog: "Ford says interest in the electric F-150, which is scheduled to go on sale in 2022, has been strong enough that it will increase production capacity by 50% from its original plans. That means another 200 permanent jobs on top of 300 jobs previously promised for the electric F-150 line. Ford will invest $100 million and hire 150 workers to build electric versions of its Transit commercial van, scheduled to go on sale in late 2021. The electrified Transit van could prove attractive for companies that specialize in delivery services in heavily populated areas."   CNET says: "Ford will release details about its upcoming all-electric E-Transit commercial van later in the week, but before sharing any specifics, it announced on Tuesday where this heavy hauler is going to be built.

With more than 2,200 individual DC fast chargers nationwide, Electrify America is delivering on its commitment to make EV ownership more convenient than ever.   Giovanni Palazzo, president and chief executive officer of Electrify America: "Electrify America is raising the bar when it comes to the high speed charging experience needed to expedite the transition to an electric future. In just over two years, we’ve made great progress in expanding our network while maintaining a deliberate focus on delivering the fastest charging speeds possible – 150kW and 350kW. We are confident that reduced charging times and increased charger availability will help Electrify America, and the industry as a whole, deliver the future-proof charging experience that customers deserve.”   "Along with the announcement of the milestone today, Electrify America has also announced that it will install solar-powered canopies to select locations. It will protect cars from the elements while delivering solar power. Furthermore, we previously reported that the charging network is installing Tesla Powerpacks at some of its charging stations. In September, we reported that Tesla Powerpacks batteries were already deployed at ~60 Electrify America charging stations and now the company expects the number to reach more than 125 stations by the end of next year." says electrek   https://electrek.co/2020/11/10/electrify-americas-electric-car-fast-charging-reaches-milestone-500-stations/   BMW INEXT ALL-ELECTRIC SUV SPIED BEFORE ITS WEDNESDAY DEBUT "The BMW iNext all-electric SUV will be the company’s technological flagship when it arrives. Not only will it be the company’s top-tier EV, but it’ll also pack Level 3 semi-autonomous driving capabilities. We’ll get our first glimpse of the new model this Wednesday during the digital-only event, though BMW will only preview its design. How much we’ll see is unknown, though a new batch of spy photos isn’t hiding many secrets." says Motor1: "While we may see the iNext this week, production won’t begin until sometime next year.

In addition, the factory produced another 7,000 Model 3s that were shipped to Europe, demonstrating a significant increase in production capacity. It is estimated that Giga Shanghai now produces between 700 and 800 vehicles per day, which equates to a production capacity of 250K+ units per year." according to TEsmanian: "And now it seems that Tesla’s Chinese factory has begun production and export of the refreshed 2021 Model 3 to countries with left-hand traffic. @ray4tesla/Twitter reports that six made-in-China Model 3s have been spotted in Hong Kong.

The warranty expansion and offer to refund some owners may help Tesla avoid a mandatory recall, and a settlement or drawn out court battles. The memory devices in some Tesla MCUs have a limited “write cycle,” which means they won’t work well, or at all, after they hit a certain number of program or erase cycles."   https://www.cnbc.com/2020/11/09/tesla-will-refund-owners-who-paid-to-fix-main-computers-out-of-pocket.html   LOTUS JUMPS STRAIGHT TO ALL-ELECTRIC FOR PURE LUXURY "The Geely brand Lotus will rely on a purely electric drive instead of the originally announced hybrid drive for its first electrified SUV. The luxury car has been developed under the internal code name Lambda for market launch in 2022." says electrive: "The reason for the change to the pure e-drive system is the company’s affiliation with the Geely Group. Premium electric SUVs are in great demand in China, and the SEA platform announced in September provides a suitable electric basis for such a vehicle. With the SEA, Geely intends to build electric cars from the A to E segment and even light commercial vehicles for various brands.

Tesla starts activating new charge port heater Tesla China Demand Is Higher Than Eve Electric car sales UK Lynk & Co’s compact SUV costs €500 a month All 2,200 Polestar 2 Delivered So Far Will Be Recalled   Show #900   Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Monday 5th October. It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story so you don't have to.   Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too.   VOLVO XC40 BEGINS PRODUCTION "Volvo announced Thursday that production of its first fully electric vehicle, the XC40 T8 Recharge, has started in Ghent, Belgium." says Green Car Reports: "The electric SUV is bound for the U.S. starting late this year, and in terms of pricing, performance, and packaging, it’s shaping up to be one of the closest rivals yet to the Tesla Model Y. Volvo Cars North America told Green Car Reports and a group of journalists Thursday that while demonstration cars are likely to arrive at many dealerships in December, first deliveries won’t likely start until January. The Recharge was engineered and developed concurrently with the Polestar 2 by the same Volvo-led engineering teams in Sweden, and with the same designer, Thomas Ingenlath.  Both models have 78-kwh (75-kwh usable) battery packs configured into a ‘T’ under the back seat and drive tunnel, plus front and rear 150-kw motors. Volvo promises a 0-60 mph time of 4.7 seconds for the 402-hp dual-motor vehicle, as well as an expected range of more than 200 miles."   https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1129821_2021-volvo-xc40-recharge-electric-suv-deliveries-by-january   BMW IX3 GOES IN TO PRODUCTION "Unlike many other car makers, BMW has decided that the way to get punters in to electric cars is to make the electric bit a powertrain option – alongside ICCE, Hybrid and PHEV – in the belief that familiarity will be a bigger factor than novelty. That’s why the new BMW iX3, the BEV X3, is being built on the same production line as the ICE X3s in Shenyang, China. And production is now underway." according to CarsUK.net: "But despite production of the iX3 already starting, the UK is going to have to wait until summer 2021 for delivery, but if you do want to jump in to an iX3 you can order in the UK, despite the wait, but you’ll need quite deep pockets. The only models available to order are the iX3 Premier Edition which costs a thumping £62k, with the iX3 Premier Edition coming in at £65k."   https://www.carsuk.net/electric-bmw-ix3-goes-in-to-production-but-still-wont-reach-the-uk-until-summer-2021/   CITROEN E-SPACETOURER AND PEUGEOT E-TRAVELLER AVAILABLE "Peugeot and Citroen are taking orders for their pure electric MPVs - the e-Traveller and e-SpaceTourer respectively. Both models share a platform and powertrain components, with a range of up to 143 miles on a charge quoted. Each use a 100 KW electric motor powered by a 50 kW battery. This is able to be charged at up to 7 kW AC or 100 kW from ultra-rapid DC charge points" according to Next Green Car: "The Peugeot e-Traveller seats up to eight passengers - two in the front with two rows of three seats behind - while the Citroen e-SpaceTourer seats up to nine. Retail customers will get an eight-seater configuration, but a Business trim is aimed at professional users, with three rows of three seats, alongside materials designed for added durability. Prices are available for Citroen's e-SpaceTourer, with Feel starting at £46,250 and Business from £45,600. Deliveries are expected to start in November."   https://www.nextgreencar.com/news/9012/citroen-espacetourer-and-peugeot-etraveller-available-to-order/   JEEP RENEGADE 4XE REVIEW "Jeep’s first plug-in hybrid will certainly stir up some mild interest in certain circles – perhaps you’re a company car driver who likes a spot of greenlaning at the weekends? " says BBC's Top Gear: "first up is the Renegade 4xe (pronounced four-by-e, incidentally). You’ve got a 60bhp electric motor and 11.4kWh battery turning the rear wheels and a turbocharged 1.3-litre 4cyl petrol at the front that comes in two power outputs depending on trim level.  It’s 4WD, but there’s no mechanical connection from front to back, it’s all achieved through electronic wizardry. It’s all very smoothly integrated and the car always keeps enough juice available to power the back wheels when the four-wheel drive is called upon. The Renegade 4xe will take basically whatever you throw under it right in its stride – a shame, because no one will ever use it. Jeep assures us hardcore trailheads will lap it up, but who wants to hold up a greenlaning party while you charge your batteries?"   https://www.topgear.com/car-reviews/jeep/renegade/13-turbo-4xe-phev-240-trailhawk-5dr-auto/first-drive   TESLA TO ACQUIRE GERMAN BATTERY ASSEMBLY MAKER "Tesla Inc TSLA.O has agreed to acquire German ATW Automation, a supplier assembling battery modules and packs for the auto industry, a source familiar with the transaction said on Friday." according to a Reuters Reports today: "ATW, a subsidiary of Canadian ATS Automation Tooling Systems Inc ATA.TO, was on the brink of liquidation due to a slump in orders, German media reported in September. ATS on Sept. 25 announced that certain assets and employees at one of its Germany-based units would be sold and transferred to a third party, without disclosing the name of the company. ATW, based in western Germany, has about 120 employees and has completed more than 20 battery production lines for international automakers, according to ATS’ website."   https://uk.reuters.com/article/us-tesla-ats-automation-germany/tesla-to-acquire-german-battery-assembly-maker-source-idUSKBN26N2VG   WHAT DOES THE TESLA SELFIE CAM CAPTURE? "A well known Tesla white hat hacker, known simply as “green” on Twitter (@greentheonly), has revealed — to some extent — what the Tesla selfie cam is watching out for. What’s the Tesla selfie cam? It’s a camera right behind the rearview mirror in a Tesla vehicle." writes CleanTechnica: "Elon Musk has said before that the selfie cam is not being used yet, and that it’s in the cars for when they become self-driving cars/robotaxis. Despite not being in use yet, though, “green” has identified what this sole interior camera is set up to watch and take notes about. Naturally, at a stage where the Tesla isn’t yet capable of 100% self-driving service unmonitored by a human, it could be useful to see if the driver’s eyes are closed or looking down away from the road. The system could then give a warning — perhaps a loud warning — that the driver should open their eyes or look up or else the car will pull over and park itself."   https://cleantechnica.com/2020/10/05/what-does-the-tesla-selfie-cam-capture/   TESLA STARTS ACTIVATING NEW CHARGE PORT HEATER "Tesla has started activating the elusive new charge port heater in Model 3 and Model Y, but it’s unclear who has it in their Model 3." says Electrek: "Now Tesla Model 3 and Model Y owners are starting to receive an additional feature called “Charge Port Inlet Heater” in the update 2020.40. So far, only owners of recent Model 3 vehicles are reporting receiving the new features."   Tesla Says: "Your car can now use the charge port inlet heater to help defrost the inside of the charge port. The charge port inlet heater can be activated in cold ambient temperatures by enabling preconditioning using the mobile app, activating the rear defrost button on the vehicle’s touchscreen, or preconditioning the vehicle using scheduled departure."   https://electrek.co/2020/10/01/tesla-charge-port-heater-unclear-who-has-it/   TESLA CHINA DEMAND IS HIGHER THAN EVE "Tesla has seen a large rise in sales after introducing some price cuts for Model 3 in China. The price cut affected two variants from the MIC (Made In China) Model 3. The standard range plus version was reduced from ¥271,550 to ¥249,000. This is equivalent to a $3500 cut. The price cut for the long-range rear-wheel-drive version was of approximately $5000." reports Torque News: "Producing and delivering so many vehicles will definitely be an important logistical challenge and if Tesla is unable to keep up with the pace of orders customers will start becoming dissatisfied by long delivery times."   https://www.torquenews.com/11663/tesla-china-demand-higher-ever-beijing-after-model-3-price-cuts   ELECTRIC CAR SALES UK "The UK new-car market has suffered its worst September since twice-yearly plate changes were introduced, but as in previous months there was strong growth in the proportion of car sales that were electric or hybrid." says Driving Electric: "Pure-electric car sales went from 7,704 in September 2019 to 21,903 in September 2020 – a 184% increase. Year-to-date, 66,611 pure-electric cars have been sold in the UK so far in 2020, which is up from the 25,097 that had been sold by the same point in 2019. While the Tesla Model 3 sold strongly through lockdown, it has since fallen out of the overall top 10 most registered models. The Vauxhall Corsa (now available in pure-electric Corsa-e guise) took the top spot in July, slipped to fifth in August, but was back on top in September."   https://www.drivingelectric.com/news/678/electric-car-sales-uk-near-7-market-share-september-2020   LYNK & CO’S COMPACT SUV COSTS €500 A MONTH "Car company Lynk & Co has finally revealed the details of its hybrid ownership model, which lets people subscribe to its Lynk & Co 01 compact SUV for €500 per month, with the option of renting the vehicle to other Lynk & Co members to begin earning that fee back." writes The Verge: "The company’s 01 hybrid and plug-in hybrid cars will begin shipping to European members in April. The €500 membership fee can also be split between multiple individuals, allowing a group of friends in the same city to share a single car. The monthly fee includes insurance and servicing by the Volvo dealer network. (Digital keys can also be shared with Volvo, to let its employees retrieve your car and return it when servicing is complete.) The monthly fee doesn’t cover the cost of fuel or electricity, however. Paid memberships can be canceled with one month’s notice."   ALL 2,200 POLESTAR 2 DELIVERED SO FAR WILL BE RECALLED "We have already told you that Polestar 2 cars are stopping in mysterious circumstances. Drivers either get an error message or nothing at all, and their cars stop working. Nothing is able to reboot them, and the vehicles have to be towed for repair. Some are waiting for more than a month. The Swedish publication Dager Industri discovered the reason and that the company will recall all 2,200 units of the Polestar 2 delivered so far." says InsideEVs   https://insideevs.com/news/447089/all-2200-polestar-2-delivered-recalled/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=RSS-all-articles   You can listen to all 899 previous episodes of this this for free, where you get your podcasts from, plus the blog https://www.evnewsdaily.com/ – remember to subscribe, which means you don’t have to think about downloading the show each day, plus you get it first and free and automatically.   It would mean a lot if you could take 2mins to leave a quick review on whichever platform you download the podcast.   And  if you have an Amazon Echo, download our Alexa Skill, search for EV News Daily and add it as a flash briefing.   Come and say hi on Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter just search EV News Daily, have a wonderful day, I’ll catch you tomorrow and remember…there’s no such thing as a self-charging hybrid.     PHIL ROBERTS / ELECTRIC FUTURE (PREMIUM PARTNER) BRAD CROSBY (PREMIUM PARTNER) AVID TECHNOLOGY (PREMIUM PARTNER) PORSCHE OF THE VILLAGE CINCINNATI (PREMIUM PARTNER) AUDI CINCINNATI EAST (PREMIUM PARTNER) VOLVO CARS CINCINNATI EAST (PREMIUM PARTNER) NATIONALCARCHARGING.COM and ALOHACHARGE.COM  (PREMIUM PARTNER) DEREK REILLY FROM THE EV REVIEW IRELAND YOUTUBE CHANNEL (PREMIUM PARTNER) RICHARD AT RSYMONS.CO.UK – THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE SPECIALIST (PREMIUM PARTNER)   DAVID AND LISA ALLEN (PARTNER) OEM AUDIO OF NEW ZEALAND AND EVPOWER.CO.NZ (PARTNER) GARETH HAMER eMOBILITY NORWAY HTTPS://WWW.EMOBILITYNORWAY.COM/  (PARTNER) BOB BOOTHBY – MILLBROOK COTTAGES AND ELOPEMENT WEDDING VENUE (PARTNER) DARIN MCLESKEY FROM DENOVO REAL ESTATE (PARTNER) JUKKA KUKONEN FROM WWW.SHIFT2ELECTRIC.COM RAJEEV NARAYAN (PARTNER)   ALAN ROBSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALAN SHEDD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALEX BANAHENE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALEXANDER FRANK @ https://www.youtube.com/c/alexsuniverse42 ANDERS HOVE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ANDREA JEFFERSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ASEER KHALID (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ASHLEY HILL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BÅRD FJUKSTAD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BRENT KINGSFORD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BRIAN THOMPSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BRUCE BOHANNAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CHARLES HALL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CHRIS HOPKINS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) COLIN HENNESSY AND CAMBSEV (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CRAIG COLES (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CRAIG ROGERS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAMIEN DAVIS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DARREN FEATCH (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVE DEWSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID FINCH (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID MOORE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID PARTINGTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID PRESCOTT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DON MCALLISTER / SCREENCASTSONLINE.COM (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ERU KYEYUNE-NYOMBI (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) FREDRIK ROVIK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) GENE RUBIN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) GILBERTO ROSADO (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) GEOFF LOWE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) HEDLEY WRIGHT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN GRIFFITHS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN SEAR (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN (WATTIE) WATKINS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JACK OAKLEY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JAMES STORR (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JIM MORRIS (EXECUTIVE PRODICERS) JOHN C SOLAR (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JON AKA BEARDY MCBEARDFACE FROM KENT EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JON MANCHAK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JUAN GONZALEZ (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) KEN MORRIS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) KEVIN MEYERSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) KYLE MAHAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LARS DAHLAGER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LAURENCE D ALLEN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LEE BROWN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LUKE CULLEY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARCEL WARD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARK BOSSERT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARTY YOUNG  (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MATT PISCIONE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MIA OPPELSTRUP (PARTNER) MICHAEL PASTRONE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MIKE WINTER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NATHAN GORE-BROWN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NEIL E ROBERTS FROM SUSSEX EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NICHOLAS MILLER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NIGEL MILES (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) OHAD ASTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PAUL RIDINGS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PAUL STEPHENSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETE GLASS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETE GORTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETER & DEE ROBERTS FROM OXON EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PHIL MOUCHET (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PHILIP TRAUTMAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RAJ BADWAL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RENE KEEMIK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RENÉ SCHNEIDER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RICHARD LUPINSKY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ROB HERMANS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ROB FROM THE RSTHINKS EV CHANNEL ON YOUTUBE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RUPERT MITCHELL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) SEIKI PAYNE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) STEPHEN PENN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) STEVE JOHN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) THOMAS J.

PRODUCER JOHN DIETZ PRODUCER BRIAN SCHAFER EXECUTIVE PRODUCER PREMIUM PARTNER RSYMONS.CO.UK – THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE SPECIALIST   POLESTAR PRECEPT TO ENTER PRODUCTION "Polestar announced today that the Precept concept model, shown earlier this year, will enter production. Vehicle development is underway in the UK and already more than 130 people are working on it." says InsideEVs: "The decision has been made after the company has realized that people like it and there should be a market for such a great looking, sporty, all-electric car. "   It's a four door saloon. Three years away from being ready. Aimed at the premium sports car market.   https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/polestar-precept-electric-grand-tourer-confirmed-production   XPENG SHIPS TO NORWAY "XPeng has started exporting vehicles to Europe. It loaded 100 G3i crossovers on an ocean liner at a port in the south China city of Guangzhou on Thursday. The vehicles will be shipped to Norway, XPeng said." according to Automotive News Europe: "The EVs will be distributed by Norwegian EV dealer Zero Emission Mobility with a starting price of 358,000 Norwegian Krone ($37,590).  The G3i compact crossover -- XPeng’s first product -- has a range of 520 kilometers (323 miles) on one charge." That's about 230 miles EPA. The G3 520 has a 66.5kWh battery from CATL.   https://www.autonews.com/china/ev-startup-xpeng-begins-exports-norway   LORDSTOWN ENDURANCE ELECTRIC PICKUP INTERIOR "Lordstown Motors is continuing the slow tease of its Endurance electric pickup this week, now revealing interior photos ahead of the truck's launch next year" says Motortrend: "Much like the interiors of the Tesla Cybertruck and Rivian R1T, the cabin of the Endurance is dominated by screens rather than physical buttons. A long frame on the dashboard houses three separate screens, underneath of which sit physical climate-control knobs. The cabin has a decidedly industrial feel with stark metallic accents, and the overall interior aesthetic matches the minimalist design of the exterior.   Even the guy driving, is wearing a hard hat. "The Endurance will produce up to 600 horsepower with the help of up to four electric in-hub motors, as well as offer a range exceeding 250 miles. Towing capacity is expected to come in at 7,500 pounds."   And as per Fox 28: "On Wednesday, Lordstown Motors Corp. announced it has received 40,000 pre-orders for the Lordstown Endurance electric pickup truck. The pre-orders, which are not binding and may be canceled or delayed, equal $2 billion in potential revenue"   https://www.motortrend.com/news/lordstown-endurance-electric-pickup-truck-interior-photos/   https://myfox28columbus.com/news/local/lordstown-motors-hits-40000-in-pre-orders-for-new-endurance-electric-pickup-truck   MODEL Y ACCELERATION BOOST "Tesla is launching a $2,000 ‘Acceleration Boost’ upgrade for Model Y Dual Motor AWD vehicles — shaving half a second off the 0 to 60 mph acceleration." says Electrek. Last year the same became available for the Model 3. "Tesla owners could unlock performance in their cars through a few clicks in the Tesla app. Now Tesla is bringing the same experience to the Model Y with its own Acceleration Boost. As of today, some Model Y Dual Motor AWD are reporting seeing the Acceleration Boost in the “upgrade” section of their app. Tesla claims that the upgrade will improve the Model Y Dual Motor AWD’s 0 to 60 mph acceleration time from 4.8 seconds to 4.3 seconds. The capacity to accelerate quicker is already inside those cars. Tesla locks that capacity through software in order to reserve it for the “Performance” version of the Model Y, which can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds."   https://electrek.co/2020/09/25/tesla-launches-acceleration-boost-upgrade-model-y/   AMAZON DEVICE WORKS WITH TESLA SENTRY MODE "Ring has announced its first foray into products meant for use outside of the home with a new line of security cameras designed for cars." reports The Verge, talking about Car Connect from Amazon, a black plastic USB connected dongle for your Tesla: "Ring says it’s working with many automotive makers to build support for the system, but the first partnership it’s announcing is with Tesla. Owners of the Model 3, X, S, and Y that have Sentry Mode enabled will be able to install a device in their cars that allows them to connect to the car’s existing cameras and view footage."   How does it work? Tech Crunch has the details: "Ring Car Connect consists of an API that car manufacturers use to provide Ring customers access to mobile alerts for any detected events around their vehicle, or to watch footage recorded from their onboard cameras. This also allows access to information that wouldn’t be available with a strictly aftermarket setup – like whether the car is locked or unlocked, for instance. Ring’s first automaker partner for this is Tesla,  which is enabling Ring Car Connect across the 3, X, S and Y models. Users will install an aftermarket device coming in 2021 for $199.99, but then they’ll be able to watch Tesla Sentry Mode footage, as well as video recorded while driving, directly in the Ring app."   $200 on top of your monthly Ring subscription.   https://www.theverge.com/2020/9/24/21453632/ring-car-alarm-security-camera-connect-tesla-price-specs-features-amazon   https://techcrunch.com/2020/09/24/ring-gets-into-automotive-security-with-three-new-car-products-including-one-debuting-first-for-teslas   TESLA “PILOT” BATTERY FACTORY = 13TH LARGEST "Tesla revealed at its Battery Day this week that it intends to produce 3 terawatt-hours (TWh) of batteries a year by 2030. That’s more than Benchmark Mineral Intelligence (aka Benchmark Minerals) was forecasting for all lithium-ion battery production combined before Battery Day." says Clean Technica: "Tracking 187 battery factories, Benchmark Minerals was forecasting 2.7 TWh of annual battery cell production capacity globally by 2030. The company forecasted that Tesla would be at 200 GWh of that total.  Even just by 2022, Tesla plans to produce 100 GWh of batteries a year."   https://cleantechnica.com/2020/09/24/tesla-pilot-battery-factory-13th-largest-in-world/   LYNK & CO ZERO CONCEPT Geely’s luxury Lync & Co sub-brand unveiled the Lynk & Co Zero Concept. The Zero Concept is a luxury pure electric vehicle that will be based on Geely Holding’s Sustainable Experience Architecture (SEA), a pure electric architecture that will be used as the basis for all new electric vehicles within the Geely Holding Group portfolio. SEA architecture aims to be the world’s first open source architecture that will be shared with other third-party vehicle manufacturers for their own electric vehicle development. The Zero Concept will go into production in 2021 and will support full life Over the Air updates with class leading artificial intelligence that will support full voice interaction. Range of the production vehicle is expected to be in excess of 700km (435 miles) under the NEDC cycle, whilst performance is also expected to reach sub four seconds for the 0-100km/h time. Production will be undertaken at a new facility in Eastern China. Lynk & Co range of vehicles which have jointly sold over 300,000 units in the Chinese market since the first introduction of the 01 SUV in 2018.   https://electriccarsreport.com/2020/09/lynk-co-zero-concept-unveiled-ahead-of-beijing-auto-show/   FORD MUSTANG MACH-E GT FOR EUROPE Ford revealed for the first time in Europe the high-performance Mustang Mach-E GT that will deliver 3.7‑second 0-62 mph acceleration when introduced to the region in late 2021. Ford says: "No other vehicle in its class can accelerate faster than the Mustang Mach-E GT". Conveniently forgetting about the Tesla Model Y Performance which is 3.5 0-60mph. Mach-E customers will also receive one year of free access to the IONITY fast-charging network that has now established more than 270 charging stations en route to a targeted 400 by the end of this year. Charging with up to 150 kW at an IONITY station, Mustang Mach-E in extended-range battery, rear-wheel drive configuration is estimated to add an average of 73 miles driving range within approximately 10 minutes of charging and has a targeted WLTP pure-electric driving range of up to 379 miles.   https://electriccarsreport.com/2020/09/ford-reveals-blisteringly-quick-mustang-mach-e-gt-for-europe/   MINNESOTA OFFERS GRANTS TO DEPLOY UP TO 38 FAST CHARGING STATIONS "The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) has announced that it will fund the installation of up to 38 additional fast charging stations in Greater Minnesota, extending the existing EV highway corridor network by more than 2,500 miles. Chargers are to be placed 30 to 70 miles apart along 7 proposed corridors." saysa ChargedEVs: "The new $2.6-million grant opportunity leverages funds from the national Volkswagen settlement. "   https://chargedevs.com/newswire/minnesota-offers-grants-to-deploy-up-to-38-fast-charging-stations/   CHARGEPOINT TO GO PUBLIC AT $2.4 BILLION VALUATION "ChargePoint Inc, one of the world's oldest and largest electric vehicle charging networks, said on Thursday it will go public by merging with Switchback Energy Acquisition Corp in a deal that values the company at $2.4 billion." according to Autoblog: "The deal will raise about $493 million in proceeds that ChargePoint will use to expand in North America and Europe. ChargePoint operates more than 115,000 charging ports globally, mostly in North America, and previously said it is aiming to increase that to 2.5 million by 2025 Other EV companies with SPAC deals include Fisker, Lordstown Motors and Canoo. Electric and fuel cell vehicle startup Nikola"   https://www.autoblog.com/2020/09/24/chargepoint-public-stock-exchange-spac-valuation-official   DOES ROLLS-ROYCE SILENT SHADOW TRADEMARK FORESHADOW AN EV? "Shadows aren't know for being loud, but Rolls-Royce could have an extra quiet shadow in the works, even quieter than a regular Silver Shadow. Silent Shadow is the name the Anglo-Germanic automaker trademarked in Germany" writes Autoweek: "Rolls-Royce cars are already expensive, so the EV hardware wouldn't even move the needle much when it comes to price. And they're already heavy, so the automaker doesn't have to worry about curb weight. Best of all, the hardware is already available to its corporate owner, the BMW Group. Rolls-Royce cars are also quite large, so the batteries can also be large and heavy, possibly enough to give the cars an industry-leading range if desired, something more than 500 miles on a single charge. And since a lot of Rolls-Royces spend time idling in Shanghai and Moscow traffic, they don't need Ludicrous acceleration all that frequently."   https://www.autoweek.com/news/a34147271/does-rolls-royce-silent-shadow-trademark-foreshadow-an-ev/   You can listen to all 898 previous episodes of this this for free, where you get your podcasts from, plus the blog https://www.evnewsdaily.com/ – remember to subscribe, which means you don’t have to think about downloading the show each day, plus you get it first and free and automatically.   It would mean a lot if you could take 2mins to leave a quick review on whichever platform you download the podcast.   And  if you have an Amazon Echo, download our Alexa Skill, search for EV News Daily and add it as a flash briefing.   Come and say hi on Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter just search EV News Daily, have a wonderful day, I’ll catch you tomorrow and remember…there’s no such thing as a self-charging hybrid.     PHIL ROBERTS / ELECTRIC FUTURE (PREMIUM PARTNER) BRAD CROSBY (PREMIUM PARTNER) AVID TECHNOLOGY (PREMIUM PARTNER) PORSCHE OF THE VILLAGE CINCINNATI (PREMIUM PARTNER) AUDI CINCINNATI EAST (PREMIUM PARTNER) VOLVO CARS CINCINNATI EAST (PREMIUM PARTNER) NATIONALCARCHARGING.COM and ALOHACHARGE.COM  (PREMIUM PARTNER) DEREK REILLY FROM THE EV REVIEW IRELAND YOUTUBE CHANNEL (PREMIUM PARTNER) RICHARD AT RSYMONS.CO.UK – THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE SPECIALIST (PREMIUM PARTNER)   DAVID AND LISA ALLEN (PARTNER) OEM AUDIO OF NEW ZEALAND AND EVPOWER.CO.NZ (PARTNER) GARETH HAMER eMOBILITY NORWAY HTTPS://WWW.EMOBILITYNORWAY.COM/  (PARTNER) BOB BOOTHBY – MILLBROOK COTTAGES AND ELOPEMENT WEDDING VENUE (PARTNER) DARIN MCLESKEY FROM DENOVO REAL ESTATE (PARTNER) JUKKA KUKONEN FROM WWW.SHIFT2ELECTRIC.COM RAJEEV NARAYAN (PARTNER)   ALAN ROBSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALAN SHEDD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALEX BANAHENE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALEXANDER FRANK @ https://www.youtube.com/c/alexsuniverse42 ANDERS HOVE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ANDREA JEFFERSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ASEER KHALID (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ASHLEY HILL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BÅRD FJUKSTAD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BRENT KINGSFORD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BRIAN THOMPSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BRUCE BOHANNAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CHARLES HALL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CHRIS HOPKINS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) COLIN HENNESSY AND CAMBSEV (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CRAIG COLES (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CRAIG ROGERS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAMIEN DAVIS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DARREN FEATCH (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVE DEWSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID FINCH (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID MOORE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID PARTINGTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID PRESCOTT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DON MCALLISTER / SCREENCASTSONLINE.COM (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ERU KYEYUNE-NYOMBI (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) FREDRIK ROVIK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) GENE RUBIN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) GILBERTO ROSADO (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) GEOFF LOWE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) HEDLEY WRIGHT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN GRIFFITHS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN SEAR (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN (WATTIE) WATKINS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JACK OAKLEY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JAMES STORR (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JIM MORRIS (EXECUTIVE PRODICERS) JOHN C SOLAR (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JON AKA BEARDY MCBEARDFACE FROM KENT EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JON MANCHAK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JUAN GONZALEZ (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) KEN MORRIS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) KEVIN MEYERSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) KYLE MAHAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LARS DAHLAGER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LAURENCE D ALLEN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LEE BROWN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LUKE CULLEY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARCEL WARD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARK BOSSERT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARTY YOUNG  (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MATT PISCIONE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MIA OPPELSTRUP (PARTNER) MICHAEL PASTRONE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MIKE WINTER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NATHAN GORE-BROWN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NEIL E ROBERTS FROM SUSSEX EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NICHOLAS MILLER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NIGEL MILES (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) OHAD ASTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PAUL RIDINGS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PAUL STEPHENSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETE GLASS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETE GORTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETER & DEE ROBERTS FROM OXON EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PHIL MOUCHET (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PHILIP TRAUTMAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RAJ BADWAL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RENE KEEMIK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RENÉ SCHNEIDER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RICHARD LUPINSKY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ROB HERMANS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ROB FROM THE RSTHINKS EV CHANNEL ON YOUTUBE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RUPERT MITCHELL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) SEIKI PAYNE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) STEPHEN PENN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) STEVE JOHN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) THOMAS J.

Show #744   Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Friday 10th April 2020. It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story so you don't have to.   TESLA MODEL Y HAS A TOW HITCH OPTION NOW "On Friday, the automaker updated its website to include a tow hitch option for $1,000. The company says it's a "high strength, Class II steel tow bar" and will let the Model Y tow up to 3,500 pounds." reports CNET: "No, it won't challenge a Ford Expedition or Chevrolet Tahoe, but it should be enough to haul a small trailer or boat. It's a quick change after the Model Y's owner's manual originally said the SUV wasn't rated for towing at all. And there's more good news on the Model Y front: Tesla will now sell owners a roof rack. While we knew the accessory was on the way, it's now available for $450. It looks to be identical to the rack Tesla sells for the Model 3."   https://www.cnet.com/news/tesla-model-y-sandy-munro-auto-manufacturing/   As for Model 3, still only Europe. SR+ and Long Range AWD.           TESLA PRICES LONGER-RANGE MODEL 3 TO ATTRACT MORE CHINA BUYERS "Tesla Inc. set a price for its longer-range variant of its locally-built Model 3 sedans in China just 13% higher than its entry-level model, a sign that the carmaker is setting competitive prices in order to attract even more consumers in the world’s largest electric vehicle market." according to Bloomberg: "The four-door vehicle sells for 366,550 yuan ($52,000) before rebates. After subsidies from the Chinese government and qualifying for exemption from purchase tax, the price of the upgraded Model 3 variant starts at 339,050 yuan. By comparison, the imported equivalent was priced at 439,900 yuan. The longer-range Model 3s are set to be delivered from June."   China Daily notes that Performance version also went online: "The Tesla Model 3 Performance made-in-China version is also open for booking orders at the same time, starting with a pre-subsidy price of 419,800 yuan. Currently, the Tesla Model 3 Performance version is manufactured in the United States and sold in China at a price of 509,900 yuan. The Model 3 Performance version made in China is expected to be delivered in the first quarter of 2021."   http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/a/202004/10/WS5e903be2a3105d50a3d15607.html   FORD F-150 PLUG-IN HYBRID RUMORED TO OFFER ONLY 10 MILES OF EV RANGE "One of the things that’s so nice about plug-in hybrid vehicles today is that most of them offer some all-electric driving range. For some plug-in hybrid vehicles, that means you can do most of your daily driving without using gasoline. The more pure electric driving a plug-in-hybrid offers, the better it is for owners. We know that Ford is working on the all-electric Ford F-150 and the Ford F-150 Hybrid, there will also be a Ford F-150 plug-in hybrid. A new rumor on the all-electric driving range for the plug-in hybrid has surfaced." says Ford Authority: "The rumor tips that the F-150 plug-in hybrid “will probably exceed 10 miles” of all-electric driving range. That is a very short driving distance, and according to the rumor, that driving range is unloaded. That would mean if you have stuff in the bed or are towing a trailer, the electric range would be even less."   https://fordauthority.com/2020/04/ford-f-150-plug-in-hybrid-tips-only-10-miles-of-ev-range/   FOUR REASONS YOU'LL WANT TO BUY POLESTAR 2 It’s basically a Volvo XC40 - The XC40 Recharge and the Polestar 2 both use the same powertrain—a 78kWh battery and dual motors for all-wheel drive. A combined 402hp means 0-100kph in under 4.7sec. In the Polestar, that translates to 470km of range, while the bigger, bluffer XC40 only manages around 400km. Polestar 2 is 275 miles EPA target.   Production has already started - It’s not long till Polestar 2s start arriving at showrooms. In the last couple of weeks, production began at Geely’s plant in Luqiao, China, where all units will be built alongside Chinese-market XC40s and the Lynk & Co 01. Cars are due to land in July, starting at £49,900.   It can tow! Max. towing capacity: 1500 kg. Max. towing unbraked trailer: 750 kg.   Google did the infotainment system - For the 2’s infotainment, Polestar paired up with Google to develop a car-friendly version of the tech giant’s Android operating system. Android Automotive, which is coming to Volvos, too (obviously), gives you navigation via Google Maps, access to the Play Store, and Google’s voice assistant.   https://www.topgear.com.ph/features/feature-articles/polestar-2-facts-tguk-a2613-20200411?ref=feed_1_section   WORLD’S FIRST ZERO-EMISSIONS ELECTRIC CONSTRUCTION SITE! "Even in cities like Oslo, Norway, which is typically thought of as progressive and “green” here in the ‘States, more than 20% of the total CO2 emissions comes from heavy-duty construction equipment. That’s a huge number, and you can bet that older, less regulated machines in other major cities are even worse. That fact has motivated the authorities in Oslo to enact laws that say all new, public buildings must be built with “fossil-free” construction machinery." repors REd Green and Blue: "You can see the Suncar ZE85 battery-powered excavators get to work in this surprisingly quiet video".   http://redgreenandblue.org/2020/04/09/worlds-first-zero-emissions-electric-construction-site/   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iXRUn0iHJY&feature=emb_title   MERCEDES BLEW A HUGE ELECTRIC SPORTS CAR LEAD "Seven whole years ago, Mercedes AMG was on the forefront of electric sports car technology. It had experimented with both a hydrogen-powered and a full battery electric vehicle version of its begullwing’d SLS AMG sports car, even going so far as to throw down an electric lap record at the Nordschleife" says Jalopnik: "In case you don’t remember, the Mercedes SLS AMG Coupé Electric Drive was a limited edition electric sports car released in 2013. Only about 100 examples were built, but it packed one electric motor for each wheel, providing a combined 740 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque. It was NEDC rated with a range of 160 miles from a 60 kWh liquid-cooled battery stack. All of this advanced Mercedes tech cost around $550,000 brand new.  If Mercedes had held up its end of the bargain here, it could be at the forefront of electric tech in the sports car market. Instead, it developed an electric Smart, an A-class EV, and the gargantuan EQC SUV."   https://jalopnik.com/mercedes-blew-a-huge-electric-sports-car-lead-1842800638   EV STARTUP ZYPP INSTALLS 20 BATTERY SWAPPING STATIONS "The green tech startup Zypp on Monday made its foray in battery swapping for electric vehicles, the company said in a press release. It has installed 15 battery swapping stations in Gurugram." according to Energy Infrapost: "the users can use the electric scooter ride-sharing app Zypp to opt for a battery swap option and avail a swap within 3 minutes and continue to ride e-bikes for another 75kms without breaking. Fitted with IoT locks and lithium-ion batteries, Zypp e-bikes can also be hired remotely via the app. Upon completion of the trip, users need to park these e-scooters in the Zypp parking points only which ensures complete safety of these scooters at all times, informed the release."   https://www.energyinfrapost.com/ev-startup-zypp-installs-20-battery-swapping-stations-in-delhi-ncr/   QUESTION OF THE WEEK   If you’re staying at home and not driving, what condition or state of charge are you leaving your EV parked up in?   I want to say a heartfelt thank you to the 237 patrons of this podcast whose generosity means I get to keep making this show, which aims to entertain and inform thousands of listeners every day about a brighter future.

Show #587   Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Saturday 21st September 2019. It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story to save you time.   Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too.   AMAZON TO DELIVER WITH 100,000 EV TRUCKS FROM RIVIAN Firstly from the press release: "By joining The Climate Pledge and agreeing to decarbonize on a faster time horizon, signatories will play a critical role in stimulating investment in the development of low carbon products and services that will be required to help companies meet the pledge. Amazon’s previously announced investment in Rivian is an example of this. Rivian is a producer of emissions-free electric vehicles with its headquarters in Plymouth, Michigan and a manufacturing plant in Normal, Illinois. The $440 million investment will accelerate the production of electric vehicles critical to reducing emissions from transportation. To further advance this goal, Amazon today announced the order of 100,000 electric delivery vehicles from Rivian, the largest order ever of electric delivery vehicles, with vans starting to deliver packages to customers in 2021. Amazon plans to have 10,000 of the new electric vehicles on the road as early as 2022 and all 100,000 vehicles on the road by 2030 – saving 4 million metric tons of carbon per year by 2030."   TechCrunch: "Rivian  noted that this was the largest order to date of any electric delivery vehicles, and that they’d begin actually deploying for Amazon starting in 2021. Amazon led a $700 million investment round in Rivian in February, and the company announced a further $350 million from auto industry giant Cox Automotive earlier this month. Automaker Ford revealed a $500 million investment in Rivian in April, too."   https://techcrunch.com/2019/09/19/amazon-orders-100k-electric-delivery-trucks-from-rivian-as-part-of-going-carbon-neutral-by-2040/   Wired.com: "Let’s put Amazon’s order for 100,000 electric delivery vans by 2030 into perspective. Today, FedEx uses 85,000 “motorized vehicles” to deliver packages around the world. UPS has around 123,000 package cars, vans, tractors, and motorcycles, including about 10,000 the company says use “alternative fuel and advanced technology.” One hundred thousand delivery vans? That’s a lot. The purchase might also broaden lawmakers' and policymakers’ ideas about what’s possible: If Amazon believes it can electrify a huge slice of its fleet quickly, why not push others to do the same?"   https://www.wired.com/story/amazon-all-electric-future-fleet-vehicles/   The Los Angeles Times: "Amazon ships 10 billion items to consumers around the world each year using fossil-fuel-burning planes, trucks and other vehicles. The company also has hundreds of distribution and fulfillment centers — including several in Southern California — along with a network of data centers, including those used by Amazon Web Services, or AWS, a “cloud” provider of data storage, web hosting and other computer services to businesses."   https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2019-09-19/amazon-climate-change   Ars Technica kicks off with a Jezz Bezos quote: ""The first electric delivery vans will go on the road in 2021," said Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos at an event in Washington DC. "The 100,000 will be completely deployed by 2024, let's say." Amazon's press release on the initiative offers a different timeline, saying the company is aiming to have 10,000 vehicles on the road by 2022 and all 100,000 vehicles on the road by 2030—six years later than the date Bezos gave. We've asked Amazon to explain this discrepancy and will update if we hear back."   https://arstechnica.com/cars/2019/09/amazon-orders-100000-electric-trucks-to-fight-climate-change/   CHINESE ELECTRIC VEHICLE AIWAYS U5 APPROVED FOR THE EU TUV Rheinland has presented the Chinese vehicle manufacturer Aiways with the certificate for the EU-wide type approval of the Aiways U5 electric vehicle. For the type approval, TUV Rheinland tested the model in accordance with the requirements of the valid European Framework Directive for Whole Vehicle Type Approval (WVTA). The Aiways U5 is a sports utility vehicle (SUV) and, according to the manufacturer, stands out due to its long range, among other things. The WVTA certification makes it the first electric vehicle from a Chinese manufacturer that can be sold in the European Union. The approval marks Aiways' official entry into the European market. For the presentation in Frankfurt, two vehicles of the Aiways U5 had driven more than 15,000 kilometers from the Chinese Xi'an via Russia, the Baltic States, Scandinavia, Denmark, the Benelux countries and France. The EU type approval is mandatory for all vehicles, vehicle parts and systems sold in the European Union. The certification covers aspects such as vehicle safety, environmental protection and emission values.   The ai-ways.eu website isn't written in the best English, it's either a translation from Chinese or perhaps German, where they seem to have a European registration for their website - for example: "Abandon the wrong idea that “the vehicle is designed for a person”. Shift the focus of design from a person to a family. The concern in design is how to make all family members comfortable, including the aged and the children." and when describing their interior: "Provide comfort from each direction. Feel soft and look nice"   From Automotive News Europe back in February: "Aiways is targeting "most of Europe" with the U5 but will not rely on a dealer network it said, without giving more details. No pricing or market information for European models were given ahead of the Geneva unveil. The car will not be available in right-hand drive for the UK market. If sales go ahead in Europe by the end of the year as planned, Aiways would be ahead of Chinese rivals to bring an electric car to market. Lynk & CO, owned by Geely, plans an electric car but will not launch the brand in Europe until 2020. Aiways was founded in 2016 by the former chief financial officer of Chinese automotive giant SAIC Group, Gu Feng.  The company's chief product officer is Roland Gumpert, the founder of sports car company Apollo Automobile and a former head of Audi Sport."   Their twitter account was abandoned on May 15 and now appears to be dormant. Questions like the Euro NCAP safety test will need to be answered. As will customer support.   https://europe.autonews.com/geneva-auto-show/china-ev-startup-aiways-will-launch-suv-europe   2020 KARMA REVERO GT GETS PEDESTRIAN NOISEMAKER "Since the 2020 Revero GT’s internal combustion engine only acts as a range extender, it doesn’t exactly provide Karma’s electrified luxury car with the necessary noise it requires so as to alert pedestrians of its presence." says CarScoops: ""With that in mind, Karma joined forces with the ECCO Safety Group in order to come up with an audible warning technology that will help keep distracted pedestrians safe. According to Karma’s director of infotainment systems and connected car, Joe Durre, the Revero GT’s new sound can be described as a low-level, throaty-electric hum, similar to electronic audio tones heard in certain futuristic movies."   https://www.carscoops.com/2019/09/2020-karma-revero-gt-gets-pedestrian-noisemaker-sounds-like-a-throaty-leaf-blower/   FAW-VOLKSWAGEN’S CHINESE FACTORY COULD SOON MAKE THE E-TRON News from China that the Audi e-tron Sportback, Audi's debut pure EV, could kick off in early 2020 as a result of the joint venture FAW-Volkswagen, at their plant in Changchun. How any could we see per year? Some reports say 45,000 to 50,000 units is the target.   TESLA GETS SUED BY CAR DEALERS AFRAID TO COMPETE WITH THEM "Tesla is still facing some direct sales bans in the US, and the saga seems to have no end. The company is now being sued by the New Jersey Coalition of Automotive Retailers who took them to court to try to avoid competing with Tesla." writes Fred at Electrek: "In 2015, New Jersey allowed Tesla to open four sales location in the state. The car dealers’ association believes that Tesla should have never been allowed to open those locations. Tesla also opened an additional location called “gallery” to showcase its products, and the association states in the complaint that they shouldn’t be able to operate this location"   Read the rest on Electrek: https://electrek.co/2019/09/20/tesla-sued-car-dealers-afraid-compete/   QUESTION OF THE WEEK The MYEV.com Question Of The Week…   What is your dream EV roadtrip?   I want to say a heartfelt thank you to the 253 patrons of this podcast whose generosity means I get to keep making this show, which aims to entertain and inform thousands of listeners every day about a brighter future.

Show #443   Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Sunday 14th April 2019. It’s Martyn Lee here and I’ve been through every EV story I could find today, and picked out the best ones to save you time.   Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too.   Hello to new Patreon PRODUCER Pete Stothard holland   DAVID FINCH : I’ve just listened to the Saturday podcast. I’m not sure if it’s worthy of a little correction or not, but you quoted Elon as saying deliveries starting May / June, when in fact his tweet said “hopefully June / July”.   RENE SCHNIEDER: "I just got a letter these minutes that the standard range plus is available for order in Switzerland: „From today on the Model 3 Standard Range Plus is available in Switzerland."   TOM RAFTERY: "It that time of year to organise the summer holidays (possibly I’ve left it a bit late already!). And I want to bring the family to Norway to show them what a country with a high penetration of Evs can look like (and to take in the beautiful scenery Norway can offer). I have been trying to find information on EV hire options in Norway, and there isn’t a lot out there (that I found)."   RIVIAN R1T TRUCK & R1S SUV WOW NYC AHEAD OF AUTO SHOW "The New York Auto Show doesn’t officially open to the public until April 19th, but that doesn’t mean the fun hasn’t already started. The weekend before an auto show opens is usually the real kickoff party, with manufacturers trying to get a jump on the competition, and many opt to show off their new vehicles before they hit the show floor the following week. That precisely what Rivian did with its R1T electric pickup truck and R1S electric SUV." reports Tom " InsideEVs.com: "These events were mostly for VIPs and reservation holders; they weren’t press events where we could schedule interview time, so unfortunately nothing new was learned. I suspect if Rivian is going to announce any new news, it will be done so during the Auto Show for maximum exposure. As you might expect, the crowd was extremely enthusiastic, and it reminded me of how it feels at Tesla events. Since most of the people in attendance were reservation holders, they were already on-board with what Rivian is doing. Plus, for most, it was their first opportunity to see the vehicles that they plunked $1,000 down on to reserve."   https://insideevs.com/rivian-wows-nyc-r1t-electric-pickup-truck-video/   MITCH EVANS EARNS FIRST FORMULA E VICTORY FOR PANASONIC JAGUAR RACING Panasonic Jaguar Racing’s Mitch Evans claims an emotional first victory in Rome with DS Techeetah’s Andre Lotterer in second and HWA Racelab’s Stoffel Vandoorne bringing home both his and the team’s first podium finish in the ABB FIA Formula E Championship. Evans stalked the back of Lotterer’s car in the opening phase of the race, with the DS TECHEETAH driver unable to pull a gap. With both teams and drivers evenly-matched on pace, it became a tactical battle about when to deploy ATTACK MODE.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ccQUaK9RlM   AUDI ANNOUNCES Q2 L E-TRON WITH 38 KWH BATTERY FOR CHINA From the Audi Press Office: "two electric models will make their series debut in Shanghai: the Audi e-tron* and the Q2 L e-tron, which was designed especially for China and is built in the Foshan plant. The compact SUV, which will be delivered to the first customers in the summer of 2019, is even experiencing its world premiere in Shanghai. Audi CEO Bram Schot: “With both the Audi Q2 L e-tron and Audi e-tron electric models, we are launching a new era in China with our partner FAW. The compact SUV will be produced locally already this year and, beginning in 2020, the Audi e-tron will also be produced in China, our largest and most important market worldwide.” The body of the Audi Q2 L e-tron is 33 millimeters (1.3 in) longer than that of the basic model. The car is powered by an electric motor on the front axle that mobilizes 100 kilowatts and 290 newton meters (213.9 lb-ft). With a battery capacity of 38 kilowatt hours, it has a range of up to 265 kilometers (164.7 mi), determined according to the local homologation procedure."   https://www.audi-mediacenter.com/en/press-releases/audi-at-auto-shanghai-2019-11479   POLESTAR 2 PUTS FOCUS ON CHINA WITH MANUFACTURING SITE AND FIRST POLESTAR SPACE LOCATION CONFIRMED At the Chinese debut of the Polestar 2 in Shanghai, Polestar confirmed that production of the new electric performance fastback will take place in Luqiao, Zhejiang Province, from early 2020. The production facility will also produce world-class Volvo and Lynk & Co. models that share their core CMA platform with Polestar 2. Polestar 2 is the first car on the modular chassis to feature a fully electric drivetrain. Thomas Ingeleth, Chief Executive Officer at Polestar: “Being able to produce Polestar 2 in the Luqiao plant in China shows the clear synergies of our ownership structure and gives us a great industrial advantage. With Geely and Volvo Cars as our owners, we are able to leverage their expertise in many different ways. Manufacturing is one of the most important areas, helping us accelerate our progress and entry into the market with the confidence that Polestar 2 production will begin as planned early next year.” Following the confirmation in 2018 that the first-ever Polestar Space will be located in Oslo, Norway, Polestar has now confirmed that the first Polestar Space in China will be located in central Beijing. Establishing the Polestar footprint initially in Oslo and Beijing highlights two of the world’s most influential electric car markets as primary targets for the brand. The Polestar Space in Beijing will open in late 2019 and signals the roll-out of Polestar Spaces in China. Around 20 facilities spread between 11 Chinese cities will be opened during 2020 – about one third of all initial Polestar Spaces expected to be opened globally.   ELON MUSK ANNOUNCES APRIL 22 AS START OF TESLA FULL SELF DRIVING "Tesla announced a new event – Tesla Autonomy Investor Day – on April 22 at its headquarters in Palo Alto. There are not many details about the event, besides the topic of autonomous driving. According to Elon Musk, investors can expect a demo of full autonomous driving," says Mark Kane for InsideEVs.com: "One of the biggest projects is the Tesla Network – a fleet of autonomous cars, available for sharing. It would be a double win for the manufacturer – first because it provides another stream of revenue and second because Tesla could use cars at the end of lease (no buyout option was previously announced)."   https://insideevs.com/musk-announces-april-22-as-start-of-tesla-full-self-driving/   VOLKSWAGEN UNVEILS ID. ROOMZZ ELECTRIC SUV CONCEPT IN SHANGHAI; SERIES MODEL IN 2021 Volkswagen is expanding its electric ID. product range with a multi-variable all-round model: the new ID. ROOMZZ—a zero-emission SUV in the five meter category. Volkswagen will present the concept car as part of a world première at Auto Shanghai (18 to 26 April) in an homage to China, currently the largest market for zero-emission vehicles. The series version of the ID. ROOMZZ—which follows on the more compact ID. CROZZ—is scheduled to take to the road from 2021. Alongside the ID. ROOMZZ, the ID. CROZZ and the compact ID. (all set to have a market début in 2020), other members of this new electric vehicle family include the iconic ID. BUZZ van and the avant-garde saloon ID. VIZZION (both will make their market début in 2022). in the European WLTP cycle the maximum range is 450 kilometers (280 miles). The battery is charged via an inductive interface. Conventional charging via a plug is also possible.The ID. ROOMZZ combines its IQ.DRIVE systems, enabling the concept car to navigate traffic all by itself (fully automated) as desired. Volkswagen is consolidating all assistance systems and technologies involved in autonomous driving under the umbrella brand IQ.DRIVE."   https://www.greencarcongress.com/2019/04/20190414-roomzz.html   QUESTION OF THE WEEK BRIAN THOMPSON Several reasons to be reticent... - Parts and service centers are not readily available -if you had rich rebuilds in your town, I would consider -I've recently had some things crop up at 70k on my 85 S that would have cost a lot had it not have been a covered under warranty. They replaced the entire battery pack.  Then a couple thousand miles later the charge port went out.  On the loaner they gave me, that car had 50k on it, the main screen went out... -if you had rich rebuilds knowledge, then you could go for it, but at 250k there is no, zero, zippo warranty and you would be covering the cost.  If you still are interested, call and ask Tesla what the cost is to get a rebuilt high voltage battery pack, as well as getting the main CPU and screen replaced, as well as drive unit and inverter. Those are the big ticket items. If this was ten years from now and there were lots of used parts available then it would be a different situation.  I would try to claw my way into a CPO car with less than 50k on it, that way it comes with 4 year 50k warranty. In the US, tesla is selling the 2012 and 2013 85s in the low $30,000 with financing.   RAJEEV NARAYAN I think one should expect to have to put some money into any vehicle with > 250,000 miles, with respect to EVs the question is the longevity of the expensive bits- the powertrain and the battery. It is known that an electric powertrain generally lasts much longer, in fact I think Tesla even suggested their powertrain can go potentially > 1 million miles. With respect to the battery, I know the NMC 622 cells in most EVs nowadays can cycle about 2,000 to 3,000 times before i'ts capacity has degraded to 80 to 90%, at which point they say it's "unsuitable" for further EV use, though in my opinion that's debatable- given the C rating of most of these battery cells. My Chevy Bolt has a 60kWH battery and EPA estimate of 3.8miles/kWH, giving 456,000 to 684,000 miles.   ASEER A EV is different and a million mile is not that outlandish a claim as motors run production lines 24/7 for many years and we don’t expect them to fail quickly today the same would be true for EVs and given that brakes also last longer (regen) it seems if your a highmiler EV is an obvious choice. This is before we take into consideration comfort and space.   JON AKA BEARDY MCBEARDFACE Firstly I think you should go for a high mileage Tesla, I would if I could afford it. Would make a great story to write about and to follow...”Life with a super high mileage Tesla” or “High mileage Tesla....what could go wrong”   JOHN FRUHWIRTH Given what I know now, Yes, I would buy a very high mileage EV but iff (if and only if) it is was a Tesla model 3. Why? Because: Its drive train is guaranteed for 1 million miles. Its batteries should last anywhere from 300k-500k miles. It's frame has been over engineered. It is the safest car on the road ...John Fruhwirth   TOBE IN SAN DIEGO I for one think it'd be brilliant for you to get the super high mileage Tesla and keep us apprised of your trials and tribulations with it...if you can afford it. I presume that could at least be considered a business expense for a podcaster like you.  I would definitely worry that it could  end up costing costing you some pounds though.   (plus in depth story about his 2012 Model S 85)   MATT PISCIONE Yes. with a caveat. As someone who works as a technician for an automotive manufacturer with an EV named after something that you might find in trees, based on their battery degradation issues I would probably not. However, the mechanical components are very durable as they are shared with other vehicles. That being said, I would be much more inclined to purchase a different EV that does not have battery degradation issues.   JAMES LOVES as a Mercedes Benz master tech here in California I my self have replaced six -B- class "ELECTRIC MACHINES" due to internal coolant leaks. These repairs were done under warranty  thank goodness  as the ELECTRIC MACHINE is a very pricey item. This front wheel drive unit is the same as the rear power unit used in the Tesla model -S-. Another thing one might consider is the battery warranty is 8 years 100k(miles) how ever a high voltage battery inspection of degradation must be performed annually and recorded.(Tesla battery Tesla drive train) if not performed or skipped the warranty is lost.This has kept me from My own purchase of a used -B- class as they are truly a blast to drive and have all the comforts of a Benz.   DAFYDD Although all the electric gubbins would in all likelihood have plenty of life left in them. One has to consider, the rest of the vehicle has also done all those miles too. As have all the interior fittings.   I’d be more willing to buy such a vehicle if I lived in Norway, Sweden, Finland or the like, where they routinely under-seal a vehicle for winter and clean it off and inspect the underside in spring. I’d be more willing to buy one, if the vehicle had be kept hot dry climate. Where salting roads was unheard of.   CHARLIE MILNER I'm currently looking at a second had Tesla. I'm looking at up to 90,000 miles. One thing that would concern me is the suspension wear. I had an old MK4 golf that after 120k miles the tracking was adjusted as much as possible and it was only just about ok. Indicating suspension components needed to be changed. If there is evidence the tracking is ok and it's been well looked after I'd consider higher milage. The motor and battery (especially with Tesla) is not a concern to me.   GARETH FROM THE CHARGEUP CAMPAIGN Although it does not meet your definition of high mileage my 2014 Leaf has been a bit of a mixed bag. Technically within the warranty period but with 96k on the clock it was outside the warranty range by about 36k. It has been pretty much reliable but I have found that I am paying for the maintenance for other people’s miles (droplink bars, track rod ends, tyres, 12 battery etc) and the charger died since as an ex taxi it had done over 4,600 rapid charges. I fixed this myself at a cost of £500 though Nissan wanted a mere £24k! My hope is that now all that work is done it will just work for quite some time.   COMMUNITY And thanks to MYEV.com they’ve set us another Question Of The Week.

Show #432   Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Monday 1st April 2019. It’s Martyn Lee here and I’ve been through every EV story I could find today, and picked out the best ones to save you time.   Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too.   I sign up to a daily email called Chartable and it tells you how each Podcast does in the various charts. And how on earth has this happened, EV News Daily is the #1 Automotive podcast in the UK.   There are three new Patreon supporters, hello to ROBERT SAUNDERS, new PRODUCER DON MILLER and EXECUTIVE PRODUCER OHAD ASTON   MARCH SALES NUMBERS! From Matthias Schmidt: "#Tesla has become the first manufacturer to register >10,000 pure electric passenger cars in a single month in Western Europe" "7-in-10 of Norway's new car registrations in March were plug-in. - First month on record that a European market surpassed >10k BEV electric car registrations. HOWEVER Norway remains unrepresentative due to the tax structure, heavily favouring EV over ICE." "1,153 #Telsa #Model3 registered in France in March Model 3 mix of total BEV electric car registrations in March: 25% Top selling BEV model in France remained Renault Zoe: 1,254"   TESLA MODEL 3 WAS #1 SELLING CAR IN NETHERLANDS IN MARCH 2019 "According to official stats, in March, the Tesla Model 3 was the best-selling car of any kind in the Netherlands with 2,195 new registrations (5.6% of all sales)." Says Mark Kane for InsideEVs.com: "We failed to spot a single model that would be above 1,000 registrations, and we believe that the second-best plug-in model is below 500 (full sales report from the Netherlands is expected later this month). The results are amazing from all ways, but we must remember that Tesla had a high number of orders early and it’s too early to judge the demand from the initial outcome. In total, Tesla registrations stand at 2,209 in March (including 8 Model S and 6 Model X) and 2,761 YTD."   https://insideevs.com/tesla-model-3-top-selling-car-netherlands/   PSA AND FCA IN TALKS TO JOINTLY DEVELOP ELECTRIC VEHICLES "After reporting in mid-March that PSA is targeting more acquisitions, Automotive News has now published new interesting information about the French manufacturer. The second-largest Europe-based automaker in 2018 measured by sales numbers is allegedly discussing a new partnership with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles that will be focused on the development of electric vehicles, according to “people familiar with the talks.” According to Anthony Carr for Motor1.com: "Word on the street is the two auto giants are considering developing a “super platform” together, an architecture for EVs that will be used by all the brands within the PSA and FCA ranges. “People who asked not to be named as the matter is private” have told the online publication that the two automakers want to reduce investment costs and make their electric vehicles more profitable. A potential cooperation between PSA and FCA is also seen as the first step towards a full merger between the two automakers. PSA is believed to be very interested in such a move because of FCA’s exposure in the United States, where the French company will be making a full comeback by the middle of next decade. In addition, FCA also owns Jeep which is one of the most appealing marques in today’s industry."   https://www.motor1.com/news/316225/psa-fca-electric-vehicles-talks/   BYD INTRODUCES 27-METER LONG K12A, THE ‘WORLD’S LONGEST PURE ELECTRIC BUS’ "BYD has introduced the K12A, a 27-meter (88.5 feet) long bi-articulated bus that it’s calling “the world’s longest pure electric bus.” The company introduced the K12A at its headquarters in Shenzhen, China. BYD’s K12A has a passenger capacity of 250 people and can reach a maximum speed of 70 km/h (about 44 mph). It has a range of 186 miles on a single full charge." Reports Phil for Electrek: "BYD claims the K12A is also the world’s first electric bus with a 4WD system that can “switch between 2WD and 4WD smoothly to meet the demands of different terrains, while also lowering the vehicle’s overall energy consumption.”"   https://electrek.co/2019/04/01/world-longest-electric-bus/   VOLVO XC40 PURE ELECTRIC VERSION COMING THIS YEAR "It was a little over a year ago when Volvo announced plans for an EV onslaught with an aim for fully electric cars to make up 50 percent of the automaker’s total sales by the middle of the next decade. It looks like the XC40 is going to lead the way as representatives of the Swedish brand have told Automotive News Europe the pure electric variant of the small crossover will be revealed before the year’s end." Writes Adrian Padeanu for Motor1.com: "Without going into any details about the zero-emissions XC40, Volvo announced plans to have its very first EV on sale by 2020 when the Tesla Model 3-rivaling Polestar 2 is also scheduled to hit the streets. The two models will have quite a lot in common as both are set to ride on the same Compact Modular Architecture (CMA), which has also served as foundation for the Lynk & Co 01, 02, and 03 models. As a reminder, Lynk & Co is a new brand from Volvo’s parent company Geely, which also happens to own Lotus."   https://www.motor1.com/news/316155/volvo-xc40-electric-version-2019/   COMMUNITY And thanks to MYEV.com they’ve set us another Question Of The Week.

MARK GARNETT (PRODUCER) STE BIRKETT (PRODUCER) – FOUND ME RECENTLY MARTY YOUNG (PRODUCER)   BRUCE HARRISON R W SAVAGE     CLARIFICATION ON THE HARLEY DAVIDSON LIVEWIRE From Sabrina Giacomini at RideApart.com: "However, in recent years, innovation hasn’t been part of the brand’s lingo—its almost as though it’s been sitting on its legacy and relying on that and only that to sell bikes. The LiveWire had the potential to change that and open new doors. While it hasn’t completely failed, I don't believe it has succeeded either. The way I see it, there are 2 reasons for that and here's my two cent about it." So what are those two reasons? And is one of them the range which I told you was my main let down. "Today, people have access to more electric models options than ever and while 110 miles is a decent range for an electric bike, it might not be enough for the LiveWire to stand out of the stylish, efficient, and affordable electric motorcycle crowd. Because now we all know: an electric orange comes at a price. The company announced on Monday that the LiveWire was on track to hit the showrooms this year and that the price tag would be set at $29,799. With young adults dealing with more debt than ever, $30k will be better spent on purchasing a car (or groceries) than a bike." "The company did have the opportunity to bring Alta Motors on board, a well-established competitor in the field of electric bikes that likely would have propelled H-D forward in its electric ambitions. Would a partnership have resulted in a cheaper LiveWire? Maybe not, but Alta's contribution to the project could have meant a sweeter deal for the money." So i got it wrong with 59 miles, I don't think i was looking at the correct number. The Harley website says: "The high-voltage battery, or RESS, provides an estimated 110 miles of range, measured using the MIC mixed-use cycle. Riding range estimates based on current SAE testing of LiveWire concept motorcycle. Actual riding range will vary based on several factors including weather and driving conditions."   https://www.rideapart.com/articles/300795/weekend-wtf-harley-davidson-livewire/   https://www.harley-davidson.com/gb/en/motorcycles/future-vehicles/livewire.html   LYNK & CO'S HATCHBACK DROPS MAJOR CAMO IN NEW SPY PICS "Lynk & Co is progressing with the development of its fourth model which will take the shape of a compact hatchback. This fresh batch of spy photos reveals the company is in the advanced stages of testing as its prototype is featuring less and less camouflage." reports Anthony for Motor1.com: "According to unconfirmed information, the model will be based on the architecture that will also underpin Volvo’s upcoming revamped 40 series of compact cars. The Swedish hatch and small wagon are rumored to go fully electric, but that won’t be the case with Lynk & Co’s sibling. It may seem like a conventional ICE-powered vehicle but underneath the skin should be a compact plug-in hybrid powertrain consisting of a 1.5-liter gasoline engine and an electric motor. This system should be good for a purely electric range of about 50 miles (80 kilometers)"   https://www.motor1.com/news/300930/lynk-co-hatchback-spied/   JAGUAR AFFIRMS FORMULA E COMMITMENT DESPITE IMPENDING CUTS "Jaguar Land Rover revealed last week that it will cut 4,500 jobs from its global operations, with the majority of them hitting management roles in the UK and the company set to start a voluntary redundancy programme." says Alex Kalinauckas for Motor1.com: "But [James] Barclay, the FE squad’s team principal, stated that Jaguar would carry on racing for the “longer-term” as it fits with the manufacturer’s recent drive towards electrification on its road car models. "It’s an unprecedented time for the car industry,” he told Motorsport.com: “A lot of geopolitical factors are affecting the industry at the moment – a slowdown in China, slowdown in diesel sales and we have that small matter of Brexit in the UK, which is affecting consumer confidence. So, we have to take some key decisions now to protect the long-term future of our company. [It’s] really important we make those steps now. But at the same time, we also announced that we’ll be building electric drive units at our engine manufacturing plant in Wolverhampton and also building a battery plant in Birmingham."   https://www.motorsport.com/formula-e/news/jaguar-fe-commitment-job-cuts/4323781/   GAC MOTOR UNVEILS CONCEPT CAR ENTRANZE GAC Motor officially announced that it has registered its North American Sales Company in Irvine, Calif., near Los Angeles. The regional headquarters will be responsible for branding, marketing, product planning and financial affairs. GAC Motor also announced at the press conference that the GAC R&D Center Detroit has officially begun operation. Located in Farmington Hills, Mich., the new R&D center was built with an investment of US$ 4.4 million and encompasses nearly 50,000 square feet of real estate. And as for their new electric concept, it's the ENTRANZE. "The Slick Bullet shaped exterior is completely breathtaking in the real flesh and introduces brand new proportions. New 3+2+2 seating arrangement and ‘aircraft inspired aisle’. Two-side mounted displays for functional feature control, plus curved displays for passenger entertainment. With most of the car made of environmentally sustainable materials, the interior of ENTRANZE is more influenced by home decoration than cars and is a great contrast to the technology and the stark exterior."   https://insideevs.com/gac-entranze-naias-photos-videos/   RENAULT EXPANDS ZOE FLEET IN ZITY CAR SHARING IN SPAIN "The new electric car sharing service Zity in Madrid, Spain turns out to be very popular as 157,000 people used it in the first year." says Mark Kane for InsideEVs.com: "The fleet of 500 Renault ZOE Z.E. 40 is soon to be expanded by another 150 ZOE to 650 total by the end of January. We don’t know the number of trips, but as many customers were using Zity more than once, it’s maybe on the track to profitability."   https://insideevs.com/renault-zoe-fleet-zity-car-sharing-in-spain/   WHY THE MCLAREN P1 IS A LIVING LEGEND "The 903bhp McLaren P1 is now six years old but remains an awe-inspiring machine. Motorious hosted the McLaren halo car at Autosport International 2019" says AutoClassics.com. Although it's not a Plug In car, it was a very early hybrid supercar. Using the Formula-1 inspired hybrid technology for performance, it was the first of a new breed. These days no supercar would be complete without a big battery so help out the wheezing old fossil engine. And since then we've had fully electric supercars from the likes of the Rimac Concept One, and the Rimac C_Two.   https://www.autoclassics.com/posts/reviews/mclaren-p1-motorious   BRAKE PAD REPLACEMENT ON EVS "The day after Christmas, Tesla CEO Elon Musk gave us an unexpected gift. Brake pads on Teslas would “literally never” need to be replaced, he said, thanks in part to the electric car’s regenerative brakes cutting way down on brake pad use compared to a conventional car. That seemed a little too good to be true! But maybe not impossible, exactly" said Erik Shilling of Jalopnik. But then he asked, would an EV maker really say you never need to replace them? He asked Jaguar who said: "The brake pads on the I-PACE do indeed need to be replaced periodically. As you might imagine, the rate at which this is required varies widely owner to owner, based on his/her individual driving style. The battery must be below approximately 80% state of charge in order to receive the full benefit of the resistance of the electric motors. The idea here is that we can’t overcharge the battery and force additional electrons in, if it’s already full, so the resistance provided by the motors gradually does decrease the fuller the battery is requiring the use of the standard braking system." And Erik asked GM: "The regenerative braking feature of the Bolt EV allows the vehicle to decelerate with less use of the vehicle’s base hydraulic brake system. However, the actual mileage that the brake lining’s life could be extended varies due to the parameters under which the vehicle is driven." Tesla didn’t reply to his request for comment but hey if Elon has tweeted, don't correct the boss. Leave it.   https://jalopnik.com/the-truth-about-brake-pad-replacement-in-teslas-and-oth-1831591519   DIESEL POPULARITY ON AUTO TRADER FALLS 40% IN TWO YEARS "Searches for diesel cars on Auto Trader have plummeted 40% over the past two years. The online classified marketplace said the proportion of fuel related searches attributed to diesel on Auto Trader has dropped from a high of 71% in November 2016, to a record low of 47% last month." in a new MotorTrader.com article: "Annually, between 2017 and 2018, there was a 40% increase in consumers searching for AFVs, with electric alone recording a spike of 52%. In just two years, searches for AFVs and pure electric have increased a significant 130% and 179% respectively."   https://www.motortrader.com/motor-trader-news/automotive-news/diesel-popularity-auto-trader-falls-40-two-years-15-01-2019   HACK YOUR WAY INTO A NEW TESLA MODEL 3 "Tesla has been working closely with white hat hackers for years in order to make its vehicle software safer and now it’s taking an unprecedented step: it’s going to be giving away a Model 3 to a hacker who can crack the vehicle." reports Fred Lambert at Electrek: "Over the past 4 years, Tesla has been running a bug bounty program and according to sources familiar with the effort, the company has given away hundreds of thousands in rewards to hackers who exposed vulnerabilities in its systems. The automaker increased its max payout per reported bug to $15,000 last year and it also took a great step in reassuring owners who are hacking their own vehicles. Tesla said that it will not void its warranty when a vehicle is hacked for “pre-approved good faith security research:” But now the top prize being offered is even more valuable, a free car to the winner of a hacking contest.   https://electrek.co/2019/01/14/tesla-model-3-giveaway-hacker/   COMMUNITY And thanks to MYEV.com they’ve set us another Question Of The Week.

Alain Visser is the CEO of Lynk & Co. We meet at his office in Lindholmen, Gothenburg earlier this fall and talked about what it takes to create an entirely new Car brand. Lynk & Co is a very special brand with huge ambitions. The first models have already meet buyers in China and they will probably sell nearly 150 000 cars already 2018 and the ambition is to sell half a million cars already 2020. And the demand is huge from customer. The plan is then to expand and offer a new type of mobility globally with start in the Netherlands. We also talked about the culture in the company with a large influence from China. The main difference is “speed” and “cost”. Welcome to the conversion.

If it's not a car brand but a mobility brand - what does that mean for the customers and how will the offer look like? The upcoming car offerings from Lynk & Co will certainly have an impact on the car industry itself and how we perceive cars in the near future.  And - much of it is happening right here in Gothenburg. Enjoy!

Sunday 29th April 2018.   LYNK&CO WILL BE HYBRIDS Volvo’s sister brand Lynk&Co has announced that the crossovers it will be building in Belgium to serve the European market will not be fully electric, but hybrid. Lynk&Co wants to attract young urban people with a subscription programme, which would allow customers to rent a car for just one month up to a few years and change their car for another model up to four times per year” says FleetEurope. Mats Fagerhag, Vice President of Geely Auto Group, said: “From the very beginning of the CMA’s development, the flexibility to support future powertrain technologies, such as PHEV, HEV, BEV, mild hybrid and traditional fuel was very much our vision. The new energy plan for Lynk & Co will be implemented in stages with the goal of following PHEV with HEV and then BEV”.   TESLA RESPONDS TO MUNRO Munro and Associates recently talked about the Tesla Model 3 in an Autoline After Hours video, Teslarati noting: “According to Sandy Munro, everything about the Model 3 from its suspension, all the way to its battery pack, are industry-leading, and if Tesla had only ensured that its build quality was as good as its technology, it would have “wiped the floor with everybody.” But Mr Munro wasn’t totally complimentary. He thought the build quality wasn’t as good as it should have been, the frame was too heavy, and he hated having no physical latches on the doors. Although on that last point, if you want the video, he does come across as an old man who doesn’t like the technology. Even though he’s clearly an expert, that one point sounded like when you’re trying to set up your parents WiFi. Tesla has responded in a statement: “The primary car evaluated by Munro was built in 2017. We have significantly refined our production processes since then, and while there’s always room for improvement, our data already shows that Model 3 quality is rapidly getting better. Since we began shipping Model 3 last year, we have been very focused on refining and tuning both part and body manufacturing processes. The result being that the standard deviation of all gaps and offsets across the entire car has improved, on average, by nearly 40%, with particular gap improvements visible in the area of the trunk, rear lamps and rear quarter panel. Today, Model 3 panel gaps are competitive with Audi, BMW, and Mercedes models, but in the spirit of relentless improvement, we are working to make them even tighter.”   BYTON VP OF DESGN SPEAKS Recently at the Milan Design Week, Byton showed off their EV concept. BYTON’s VP of Design, Benoît Jacob is the former VP of Design at BMW. During his time at BMW, Jacob was the head of various projects, including both the i3 and i8 electric vehicles. Now, at BYTON, Jacob is responsible for building a concept. “I think the ability to update software, functionality and things like that will be on a day-to-day basis. And this is, of course, something we have to integrate as a technology into the car.” BYTON’s SUV will be available in China towards the end of 2019 and in the US and Europe in 2020 with a price starting at $45,000.   MOTOR DEALERS NEED EV-ANGELISTS The whole ev-angelist thing is clever but maybe a bit overdone, but that’s exactly what dealers need according to a new report. Motor Trader website says “one in three UK dealerships don’t have a single EV trained technician in their workshops but the majority now recognise the need to increase the number of EV trained technicians in their dealerships and train existing sta The Institute of the Motor Industry has been campaigning for some time for the government to give further backing technician training for electric vehicles. In July last year it reported that the percentage of technicians trained to work safely on the high-voltage technology remains at 1%.”   DRIVING ON A SOLAR ROAD Elon Musk occasionally likes to counter arguments against solar power by saying that the world is solar powered – the sun being the source of everything. Scott Brusaw and his wife Julie have spent just about every day over the past 10 years developing Solar Roadways. He says: “"We signed with our first manufacturing contract in Dayton, Ohio. So, they'll be making the first SR4's. And we're in talks with our first manufacturing company here in North Idaho," he said. "That means we can get the price way down. And our ultimate goal is to have this at a big box store where homeowners can do their driveways, business people can do their parking lots." KREM says: The Brusaws got to the next phase with the help of a record-setting crowdfunding campaign back in 2014. It raised more than $2.2 million. After Indiegogo, credit card and other fees, the Brusaws say they got about $1.5 million before the tax man took another huge chunk. This allowed them to buy a Sandpoint building to serve as the Solar Roadways research and development headquarters. They hired a few employees and bought their first small scale manufacturing equipment. Of course, they were not actually made to make solar roads since nobody ever needed machines for that before”   TESLA OWNER BANNED The BBC reports that: “A driver who moved into the passenger seat after putting his Tesla into autopilot while at 40mph on a motorway has been banned from driving. Bhavesh Patel, 39, of Alfreton Road, Nottingham, pleaded guilty to dangerous driving at St Albans Crown Court. A witness in another car filmed him sitting in the passenger seat of his Tesla S 60 on the M1 between junctions 8 and 9 near Hemel Hempstead. A statement provided by a Tesla engineer said the autopilot was intended to provide assistance to a "fully-attentive driver", the court heard.”     I’d love to spread the word about electric cars so, if you can, share this somebody who might be interested.

26 April 2018 | BMW iX3 First Look, Nissan Launch Sylphy EV and Volvo XC40 Plug In

EV News Daily - Electric Car Podcast

Thursday 26th April 2018. BMW iX3 TO BE MADE IN, AND EXPORTED FROM, CHINA The biggest car launch today was technically a concept, but let’s report on it because it’s such big news. The massively popular BMW X3 is finally confirmed as being an electric model, the iX3. And equally as big news, it is set to be made in China and be exported to USA and Europe. And it’s very similar to the X3 apart from BMW playing around with the kidney style grill. It will enter production in 2020 and is the first example I can think of to be a luxury upmarket car made in China and exported. What happened to quality only coming from Germany? And BMW sell a lot of SUV in North America so it’s a calculated risk, and means a lot for their reputation. They already make the plug in Z1 in China. The iX3 will have a range of 400km which is 250miles, but there’s no direction on whether. For comparison the new 40kWh Nissan LEAF has a 150mile EPA range. And it’s a strong effort to go up against the Jaguar I-PACE, the Audi e-tron Quattro, the Mercedes EQC crossover due next year in 2019. So smart money is on a 70kWh battery pack, and they’ve confirmed 150kW charge speeds. The motor is a very reasonable 200kW of power. The platform will come with battery packs from 60kWh to 120kWh depending on the needs of performance. Electrive say: “The core of the iX3 is very compact. The fifth generation eDrive contains the electric motor, transmission and performance electronics in one component. A further novelty is the fact that the electric motor was designed without using any rare-earth metals. Added to this development, are the new battery specs, which have improved performance characteristics, range, size and flexibility, according to the manufacturer.”   NISSAN’S LEAF WHICH IS A SYLPHY A new car was launched by Nissan yesterday – welcome to the world the Nissan Sylphy. From the front it’s a LEAF, from the back it’s a pretty generic sedan, from the side, it’s a LEAF-and-a-bit on the back. It’s Nissan’s first EV built for China and yes it does share the LEAF platform. Based on the Chinese cycle it’s good for 210 miles or 340kms. That sounds to me like the 40kWh AESC batteries and not the new larger 60kWh LG Chem batteries, because surely that range would be higher. Given that the Chinese standards are more forgiving than the EPA. It does feature the e-Pedal technology which has everyone impressed. It will be on sale this year. But will we see it in the US? Will we see it in Europe like the BMW? Nope. I would expect it to be very cheap however based on comments from Carlos Ghosn that even their own Nissan LEAF is too expensive for the Chinese market.   VOLVO XC40 PHEV Volvo was the first major name to say all their cars will be electrified by 2019, and now they’ve said half of its annual, worldwide sales will be electric cars within 7 years. And a lot can happen in 7 years! 2025 is the year when China wants 7 million electric cars being sold a year that’s 20% of all sales. We’ve seen the XC40 T5 Plug-in Hybrid at Auto China 2018 in Beijing, in their No.1 market in China. It has a 1.5litre three-cylinder engine coupled with the electric motor, and of course can run on electricity only, but we don’t know how far. At the show Volvo are only showing off cars with plugs – those being the XC40, 60 and 90. Volvo’s owner Geely has developed the powertrain which is also set to be used in Lynk&Co models, and for Geely’s own models in China. Autocar say: “Three main drive modes will be available with the T5 model: Hybrid, Power and Pure. The first will work to most efficiently combine both parts of the powertrain, while power will maximise the output of both. The final will harness only the electric motor.”   HONDA EVERUS CONCEPT In Beijng Honda has shown off another concept, and another stunner. The Everus – a mass produced B segment car for the Chinese market. Again the show in China is being used to show off the body and styling without any firm details of the drivetrain but it’s due to be in the hands of customers this year, and built by a joint venture, as is the deal with China, with GAC Group.   TOYOTA WILL HAVE TO GET SOME PLUGS Toyota might be famous for running ad campaigns saying we don’t believe in plugging in our hybrids, but someone forgot to tell the engineers. That’s because the Corolla and Levin are being shown off at Auto China 2018 to be on sale next year, and a full BEV in 2020. A full BEV for Toyota? But only for China! It’s based on the C-HR compact SUV. The Chinese partner for Toyota is GAC. The plug ins are said to do 50kms on pure electric alone, obviously made in China. These are the start of 10 new models, and also a R&D centre in China, to move forward with pure battery tech.   NEW BRAND FOR VW Volkswagen has launched a new car brand at Auto China called SOL, and the first car under that, the E20X. And again it’s the lovechild of VW with a domestic maker, JAC. Like the Honda it will be on sale this year, taking same parts of the JAC iEV7S, running 186 miles on one charge, it has smart charging, self-parking and luxuries like parking cameras.   I’d love to spread the word about electric cars so, if you can, share this somebody who might be interested.
