The Neue Klasse flagship uses sixth-generation eDrive tech and a 108.7 kWh battery, charges at up to 400 kW to add 373 km (231 miles) in ten minutes, and starts at €73,925 ($85,200) in Germany for the iX3 50 xDrive with up to 805 km (500 miles) of WLTP range.BMW TO BUILD IX5 BATTERY PACKS IN SOUTH CAROLINABMW will begin mass production of iX5 high-voltage battery packs in December at its new Plant Woodruff in South Carolina, near Plant Spartanburg where the iX5 is assembled, keeping pack assembly in-house to build a local supply chain, cut geopolitical risk and reduce logistics costs. AESC, now majority-owned by China's Envision Group, supplies the 120 mm cylindrical cells — which deliver 30% more usable energy than the iX3's 95 mm cells — giving the US iX5 a 144 kWh pack (141 kWh in Europe), an estimated 435 miles of range, 460 kW peak charging and a 10-80% charge in 22 minutes.ZEEKR 9X ARRIVES IN EUROPEZeekr has launched the 9X Ultra 6-Seater in Europe as a luxury SUV and its first Super Hybrid, pairing a 900V dual-motor system with a 2.0-litre turbo engine used purely as a generator for 897 horsepower, 0-100 km/h in 4.1 seconds, up to 737 km of range and a 10-80% DC charge in 9.5 minutes. Designed in Gothenburg with adaptive air suspension and CDC dampers, it offers reclining, massaging first and second rows, an onboard refrigerator, a ceiling-mounted 17-inch 3K OLED screen and a 32-speaker Naim system, and marks Zeekr's fifth European model in three years across 16 markets.SK ON AND FACTORIAL TARGET SOLID-STATE SCALESK On and Factorial Energy have partnered to push solid-state batteries towards production, combining Factorial's FEST cell technology with SK On's manufacturing network to tackle the scaling problem that has held back a chemistry promising higher energy density, longer range and faster charging than lithium-ion. Factorial is already testing cells in North America and has integrated them into Stellantis' Dodge Charger Daytona prototype, claiming 375 Wh/kg energy density, while its work with Mercedes-Benz produced a modified EQS that covered over 745 miles on a single charge.TESLA SHIP LOAD SETS SHANGHAI RECORDThe Chinese-built car carrier Glovis Nova loaded 7,738 electric vehicles — all Tesla Model 3 and Model Y cars — at Shanghai's South Port Terminal on Sunday, a domestic record for a single voyage, and set sail for Zeebrugge, Belgium, for distribution across Europe. The 10,800-car vessel and its sister ship Glovis Leader, which berthed the same day before heading to Busan, were built by Guangzhou Shipyard International, a China State Shipbuilding Corporation subsidiary, and rank among the largest of their kind in the world.NORWAY LEADS GLOBAL EV ADOPTION INDEXNorway tops the latest Global EV Adoption Index with 73.2 out of 100, ahead of Denmark on 64.7 and China on 64.5, backed by a 92% EV sales share in 2024, 32 public chargers per 1,000 battery vehicles and 41.9% fast-charger coverage. Denmark climbed 40 percentage points since 2020 to a 56% sales share with 73 chargers per 1,000 EVs, China recorded a 48% share and 103 chargers per 1,000 vehicles, and Tesla led brand interest across 75 countries with 71.6 million Google queries in the past year.MITSUBISHI RETURNS TO NORTH AMERICA WITH LEAF EVMitsubishi will re-enter the North American EV market with the 2027 Eclipse Sportback EV, on sale in the US and Canada by late summer or early fall of 2026 through around 300 dealerships. Billed as all-new, it is in fact based on the next-generation Nissan Leaf via the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance, sharing its 75 kWh liquid-cooled battery, native NACS port, Supercharger access and 150 kW charging (10-80% in about 35 minutes) beneath new fascias, lighting and alloys, with range and pricing still undisclosed.LEPAS L8 TARGETS EUROPE ON VALUEChery has launched the Lepas L8, a D-segment family SUV priced from £34,900 to £37,900, using the upmarket Lepas brand to challenge BMW and Volkswagen on space, equipment and price alongside stablemates such as the Jaecoo 7, Omoda 7 and Chery Tiggo 8. Power comes from Chery's Super Hybrid system combining a 1.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine with an electric motor and 18.4 kWh battery, while the cabin offers an upmarket feel, generous tech, vast rear legroom and headroom despite the panoramic roof, and a 507-litre boot comparable to a Nissan Qashqai's.KERBSIDE CHARGING SEARCHES JUMP AS EV COST SCRUTINY GROWSVertu reports that searches for "kerbside EV charging" rose 125% over the past three months while searches for "cheapest EV tariff" climbed 173%, suggesting buyers are weighing access and running costs together before switching. The trend matters because government figures published in 2024 found 40% of UK households have no access to off-street parking, leaving a large share of the market dependent on public charging and highly sensitive to the cost of every kilowatt-hour.PRINCE AL WALEED RAISES LUCID STAKEPrince Al Waleed bin Talal's investment office bought just over 19 million Lucid shares, lifting his stake to about 5% according to an SEC filing, with the prince saying he bought when Lucid's market cap was below $2 billion following speculation — since denied by Lucid — about bankruptcy or a take-private deal. The purchase, which Lucid welcomed as an independent vote of confidence, comes as the company restructures under new CEO Silvio Napoli after cutting 18% of staff in June on top of an earlier 12% lay-off, and adds to Saudi ownership alongside the Public Investment Fund's roughly 60% stake held since the 2021 SPAC merger.

BEVs beat ICE vehicles in nearly every category, with the widest gap in powertrain satisfaction at 109 points.BYD DRAWS LEVEL WITH TESLA IN EUROPEBYD more than doubled its European market share to 2.4% in the first half of 2026, matching Tesla and edging ahead in absolute registrations with 174,144 vehicles versus Tesla's 170,351. Chery also surged, nearly quadrupling its share to 2.2%, helped by plug-in hybrid models across its Chery, Jaecoo, Omoda and Jetour brands.FORD TURN TO APPLE FOR $30,000 ELECTRIC PICKUPFord will integrate Apple Maps into its new Universal Electric Vehicle platform, using Apple's MapKit for Automotive SDK for navigation and to enhance BlueCruise hands-free driving. The tie-up supports Ford's planned $30,000 midsize electric pickup launching in 2027 as the first UEV-platform vehicle.HONDA EUROPE CHIEF WANTS TOUGHER, BROADER CO2 RULESHonda's European boss Hans De Jaeger called for stricter overall CO2 targets but more flexibility in how automakers meet them, criticizing the EU's narrow focus on battery-electric vehicles. He argued this approach limits customer choice, hurts sales, and contributes to Europe's ageing car fleet, urging room for hybrids, PHEVs and alternative fuels.HONDA INDIA TAKES A PHASED EV LINEHonda Motorcycle & Scooter India said electrification won't suit every market, favoring a multi-fuel, multi-pathway approach with EVs prioritized in dense urban areas with reliable charging. Its new QC3 Family electric scooter, featuring a 3 kWh battery and 145 km range, will launch first as a pilot in select cities rather than nationwide.NEXT EQUINOX EV MAY SHIFT TO BEV-NGeneral Motors is reportedly planning a second-generation Chevy Equinox EV for late 2028 or early 2029, shifting from the BEV3 platform to a new BEV-N architecture alongside a broader electronics overhaul. The current Equinox EV has topped 100,000 U.S. sales through June, and the 2027 model will add a native NACS port for Tesla Superchargers.SPAIN LAUNCHES AUTO+ EV GRANT SCHEMESpain approved Auto+, a new EV subsidy program running through 2030 that replaces MOVES III and covers only vehicles meeting the DGT ZERO emissions label. Grants range up to €4,500 for private buyers' passenger cars and up to €12,000 for vans under the Climate Social Fund, with extra incentives for EU-built models and batteries.VOLKSWAGEN OPENS ID. CROSS ORDERS IN GERMANYVolkswagen opened German orders for the ID. Cross, initially only in a 155 kW front-wheel-drive version with a 52 kWh battery, priced from €34,025 after incentives in Life trim. The cheaper €27,995 Trend base version, positioned above the ID. Polo, won't be available until orders open in mid-October.BMW PITS ELECTRIC M3 AGAINST PETROLBMW plans to develop its next electric M3 alongside a new petrol M3, letting the two compete for the same buyers in what M boss Frank van Meel calls an internal contest. Previewed by the M Concept Neue Klasse, the four-motor electric M3 will prioritize balance and agility over raw power figures.

Thị trường xe hơi và nay là xe điện (electric car-EV) của Anh có truyền thống bị quốc tế hóa từ lâu, với các tập đoàn Nhật, Hàn, Pháp, Đức và Trung Quốc. Nhưng gần đây, sự xuất hiện của xe Trung Quốc và xe nhãn hiệu châu Âu nhưng do công ty Trung Quốc đầu tư sản xuất trở thành hiện tượng nổi bật. Các dòng xe Trung Quốc vào Anh tăng nhanh tới mức nào và tại sao người Anh ưa chuộng xe Trung Quốc? Theo các tạp chí chuyên ngành, từ năm 2024 đến hết 2025, xe hơi mới do Trung Quốc sản xuất đăng ký sử dụng ở Anh đã tăng gần gấp đôi, từ 100 nghìn xe lên gần 200 nghìn, chiếm khoảng 10% xe hơi đăng ký mới ở Anh (2 triệu xe). Điều đáng nói là số bán rất ngoạn mục thể hiện ba điều đặc biệt. Một là các nhãn hiệu xe Trung Quốc từ chỗ mấy năm trước không ai biết đến mà nay đã rất phổ biến. Các tạp chí xe, chương trình TV, mạng xã hội đều tham gia quảng cáo xe Trung Quốc rất mạnh. Thứ hai là xe Trung Quốc rất đa dạng về chủng loại, về nhãn hiệu chứ không phải chỉ có vài loại từ một nước. Ví dụ như Pháp thường bán sang Anh xe Peugeot, Renault, Nhật thì có Nissan, Toyota, Mazda...Xe Trung Quốc ngay lập tức có ít nhất hơn 10 loại, từ các tập đoàn khác nhau. Thứ ba là Trung Quốc dẫn đầu về số xe điện EV đăng ký ở Anh. Nếu tính xe Trung Quốc và cả các dòng xe châu Âu nhưng thực tế là sản xuất, lắp ráp, đặt pin ở Trung Quốc, thì tới 27,9% xe EV bán ở Anh là đến từ Trung Quốc. Cụ thể hơn, các dòng xe Trung Quốc đang ồ ạ vào Anh là gì? Sức cạnh tranh là nhờ rẻ hơn xe các nước khác, hay có gì nổi trội nữa? Tạp chí xe Motorpoint nêu ra 26 nhãn hiệu xe Trung Quốc hàng đầu đã và sắp vào Anh (26 Chinese car brands coming for the UK market), trong đó có tới 18 nhãn hiệu đã được bán ở Anh. Nổi bật nhất là 4 loại xe: ·       Chery Tiggo 8: Được trang Carwow ở Anh bình chọn là Xe của Năm. Chiếc SUV gia đình hybrid cắm sạc (PHEV) này gây ấn tượng với khoang cabin cảm giác cao cấp, tính thực dụng và mức giá cạnh tranh. ·       MG4 EV: Được trang What Car? khen là xe điện nhỏ tốt nhất. Các chuyên gia đánh giá là lái ổn, giá rẻ và phạm vi dùng pin khá rộng. ·       BYD Dolphin Surf: Được Auto Express nhấn mạnh là một trong những xe điện đô thị hàng đầu, có cabin rộng rãi, trang thiết bị phong phú và giá khởi điểm chưa tới 19 nghìn bảng Anh. ·       Jaecoo 7: Từng bị phê phán trên các tạp chí xe hơi Anh, chiếc SUV gia đình dẻo dai này đã trở thành cơn sốt doanh số lớn ở Vương quốc Anh nhờ kiểu dáng sắc nét và khoang cabin công nghệ cao.. Ngoài ra còn Xpeng 6, Changan, SkyWell là các nhãn mác khác đang dần vào Anh... Xe TQ cạnh tranh tốt nhờ giá thấp, từ 3-5 nghìn bảng mỗi chiếc xe mới cùng hạng. Xin so sánh một chút: Những ai sử dụng một số đồ điện như nồi cơm điện của Xiaomi và đồng hồ điện tử của hãng này nên biết là Xiaomi cũng làm xe hơi động cơ điện và xe này sẽ tới Anh nay mai. Hàng điện tử, từ loa đài, điện thoại thông minh, đồ gia dụng Trung Quốc bán ở Anh đều rẻ hơn 10-15%, đôi khi 20% so với hàng châu Âu. Xe hơi và xe điện cũng vậy. Ví dụ, MG HS của TQ cạnh tranh đồng hạng với Kia Sportage, nhưng bán với giá rẻ hơn, từ 6 đến 8 nghìn bảng. Người Anh nay đã biết nền tảng cơ khí và công nghiệp Trung Quốc quá mạnh, nên một công ty làm điện thoại, đồng hồ cũng có thể chuyển sang làm ô-tô chỉ trong một vài năm. Người ta nói ở Trung Quốc sản xuất xe hơi nay như làm bánh mì vậy. Tại sao ngành ô-tô Trung Quốc chọn Anh? Lý do đầu tiên là thương chiến Mỹ-Trung và Liên Hiệp Châu Âu (EU)-Trung Quốc. Anh là nước duy nhất không áp thuế cao lên xe EV của Trung Quốc nên khi bán vào Anh, các hãng Trung Quốc có biên độ lợi nhuận khác hẳn với việc bán vào Hoa Kỳ và EU. Ví dụ, xe điện Trung Quốc bán vào EU chịu thuế nhập khẩu từ 7,8% tới 35,3% tùy phần trăm vật liệu và công nghệ, còn ở Anh thuế chỉ có 10%. Lý do thứ nhì là thị trường xe hơi Anh trên thực tế đã lọt vào tay các tập đoàn nước ngoài sau đợt tự do hóa từ mấy chục năm trước. Ở Anh, ngành xe hơi hiện có trị giá thị trường 100 tỷ bảng, tuyển dụng hơn 700 nghìn người, nên là một mũi nhọn của nền kinh tế, nhưng từ lâu nay đều là do các tập đoàn nước ngoài của Nhật, Đức và các nước khác đầu tư và sản xuất. Sự có mặt của các công ty Trung Quốc là chuyện bình thường. Chỉ có điều là họ vào quá nhanh và bán quá tốt. Lý do thứ ba,  các công ty Trung Quốc lâu nay đã mua lại các dòng xe châu Âu, như MG, Lotus của Anh hay Volvo của Thụy Điển. Tôi đi xe Volvo nên biết rằng Geely từ Chiết Giang  làm chủ hãng này, xe sản xuất ở Bỉ, lắp vô-lăng tay lái nghịch theo hệ của Anh để bán sang Anh. Chi tiết đó cho thấy tiền đầu tư của Trung Quốc đã có ở châu Âu, gồm Anh, nhiều năm rồi. Tới đây, Geely sẽ bán sang Anh các dòng xe Geely, Zeekr, Farizon, bên cạnh Polestar, Lotus, Smart, Volvo, LEVC đã có mặt. Ví dụ nữa, MG là tập đoàn truyền thống của Anh được công ty SAIC của Trung Quốc sở hữu và triển khai khá nhiều nhãn hiệu xe ở Anh. Điều đáng nói là một số tạp chí xe của Anh không coi MG là ‘xe Trung Quốc' nữa mà xếp vào mục xe Made in the UK – Sản xuất tại Vương quốc Anh. Chiến lược tới đây của các tập đoàn xe Trung Quốc với nước Anh ? Thị trường Anh được cho là ‘phòng thí nghiệm' cho công ty xe hơi và xe điện Trung Quốc. Ngoài lý do thuế quan thấp, các công ty xe hơi Trung Quốc có hai chiến lược thâm nhập thị trường Anh. Một là các nhà chế tạo xe ở Trung Quốc đã làm chủ các thương hiệu mạnh thì họ sẽ nhấn mạnh vào tính truyền thống, như thể họ đã làm một phần của văn hóa xe hơi ở Anh và châu Âu. Ví dụ MG bán xe theo phong cách Anh. Leapmotor, công ty khác của Trung Quốc, thì hợp tác với Stellantis và trình bày hình ảnh họ thuộc đại gia đình xe châu Âu gồm Vauxhall (ở Đức là Opel), Peugeot, Citroën, Fiat… để bán xe ‘quen thuộc' với người Anh. Từ đó, họ sẽ bán xe sang các nước nói tiếng Anh, dựa vào dòng thông tin tiếng Anh toàn cầu. Đó là một phần của chiến lược marketing và giành thị phần toàn cầu mà Anh Quốc là mắt xích quan trọng. Hai là chiến lược của các dòng xe rất mới, tên khá lạ, từ Omoda tới BYD, Changan, Xiaomi, Chery, Skywell, GWM (Great Wall Motor-xe Trường Thành)...thì chọn hẳn tương lai của ngành xe điện, trình bày sản phẩm thuộc thế hệ mới, xe EV, plug-in hybrids, bán pin có thời gian chạy được lâu. Hiện nay, xe điện mới chiếm chưa tới 50% xe hơi mới bán ra ở Anh, nên tiềm năng của thị trường Anh còn rất lớn, nhờ chính sách thúc đẩy chuyển đổi năng lượng xanh của chính phủ. Các công ty TQ đang chờ sẵn. Có những ý kiến trái chiều nào về xe Trung Quốc ở Anh ? Có những bài bình luận nói một số loại xe EV của Trung Quốc khi trời lạnh, pin bị hao nhanh hơn mức được quảng cáo. Có loại xe bị chê là vỏ quá mỏng, sơn chưa đạt nên chóng hoen rỉ. Còn theo nhà báo Stuart Masson viết trên trang The Car Expert, nhiều xe mới của Trung Quốc bị chê là có quá nhiều màn hình (screen-heavy), màu sắc nhấp nháy, và thiếu ‘cảm giác châu Âu' (European feel) khi lái. Vô-lăng xe có khi như là bộ phận đồ chơi điện tử. Xe Trung Quốc cũng nổi tiếng với nhiều tính năng giải trí bên trong, có các app, phần mềm và màn hình nhiều hơn so với xe châu Âu. Nhưng kiểu thiết kế đầy ắp các chức năng điện tử thế chưa chắc đã được người châu Âu thích. Vì thế, Trung Quốc sẽ thử bán ở Anh, thu thập ý kiến khách hàng để cải thiện sản phẩm. Chúng ta biết dân châu Âu đã có cả trăm năm chơi xe hơi nên cách lái, cách ứng xử trong xe là cả một bề dày văn hóa. Đó là thứ người Trung Quốc chưa làm được. Nhưng Masson viết, sau khi ông đi thăm các nhà máy xe ở Trung Quốc về, phía Trung Quốc hiểu điều này và học rất nhanh cách khắc phục những lỗi sản xuất. Với họ, việc đem vào Anh nhiều loại xe khác nhau, đáp ứng các nhu cầu khác nhau của người dân trong cuộc sống là cách ‘thí nghiệm' để sau đó cải tiến và bán sang các nước nói tiếng Anh trên toàn cầu.

Segundo a ACAP, venderam-se quase 158 mil veículos novos na primeira metade do ano, mais 10% do que há um ano, e sete em cada dez ligeiros de passageiros foram elétricos ou híbridos. As marcas chinesas venderam mais de 12 mil carros eletrificados em Portugal, um crescimento de cerca de 150% face ao ano passado. Hoje, um em cada oito eletrificados vendidos no país é chinês, e o número de marcas em atividade quase duplicou, de nove para dezassete. Se fossem uma só marca, seriam líderes de mercado, à frente da Tesla. Neste episódio do Economia dia a dia, Gonçalo Almeida explica como o preço se tornou a arma desta ofensiva e como as tarifas europeias estão a ser contornadas.

Roberto and Jon are back for another unscripted Tailoring Talk Magazine catch-up, starting with the strange feeling of swapping an Apple Watch for a proper Omega Seamaster at dinner and what that says about style, habits and dressing like a grown up.From there, the conversation moves into Apple's latest software betas, the promise of a genuinely useful Siri AI, whether Apple could replace paid AI tools like ChatGPT or Claude for everyday users, and why privacy, on-device processing and private cloud compute could make Apple's approach especially interesting for work, productivity and personal organisation.The second half of the episode turns into a deep dive on cars and the future of the motoring industry. Roberto and Jon discuss the first images of BMW's upcoming electric M3, the changing design language of EVs, why battery range and software may matter more than old-fashioned badge prestige, and how Chinese manufacturers such as BYD, Jaecoo and Omoda could reshape the car market in the UK.They also get into used Porsche Taycan values, Hyundai's Ioniq 9, the rise of chunky EV design, whether premium brands still have real badge power, and why the next generation of car buyers may judge vehicles very differently to those of us who grew up with petrol engines, Sunday drives and poster cars.A wide-ranging conversation covering watches, style, Apple, AI, EVs, BMW, Porsche, Hyundai, Chinese car brands, car finance, software, batteries and why the whole car industry might be entering its biggest shift in decades.

Charging availability remained the top barrier at 46%, though concerns around cost and charging time all eased year on year.HONDA SWINGS TO LOSS AS HYBRID STRATEGY HARDENSHonda posted its first operating loss since going public in 1957, recording a ¥414.3 billion ($2.6 billion) operating loss for the fiscal year ended March 2026, driven by ¥1.57 trillion in EV-related write-offs. CEO Toshihiro Mibe abandoned the 2040 combustion-free target and pivoted to 15 new hybrid models through 2030, with two prototypes — a fastback sedan and a red crossover — unveiled in Tokyo on May 14.SLATE AUTO PLANS 392 MICHIGAN JOBSSlate Auto plans to add 392 jobs and invest $10.4 million at its Troy, Michigan headquarters over five years, nearly doubling its Michigan workforce ahead of its low-cost electric pickup launch later in 2026. The Bezos-backed company, now led by CEO Peter Faricy following a leadership change in March, will focus new roles on engineering, design, and R&D, with positions starting at $43 per hour.TOYOTA HILUX ADDS EV FOR 2026Toyota will launch the ninth-generation Hilux in 2026 with both a fully electric and a diesel version, with the electric model reaching UK customers first in June in Icon (£52,845 after grant) and Invincible (£55,695 after grant) trims. Both electric variants qualify for the UK government's £5,000 plug-in van grant and come in a Double Cab body style, with a two-seat commercial conversion to follow later in 2026.VAUXHALL MATCHES EV AND DIESEL VAN PRICESVauxhall has achieved finance and lease price parity between the electric and diesel versions of its Combo and Vivaro vans, with the Combo Electric available from £305 per month and the Vivaro Electric from £335 per month — both matching their diesel equivalents on 36-month, 10,000-mile terms. The parity has been extended to the Astra and Frontera passenger cars as part of a wider brand strategy to remove the cost barrier to electrification.TRATON RAISES €850 MILLION FOR EV DRIVEVolkswagen-majority-owned Traton Group has raised €850 million to accelerate battery-electric drivetrain development across MAN, Scania, International, and Volkswagen Truck & Bus. Battery-electric vehicle sales across the group grew to 1.4% of total sales in Q1 2026, up from 0.9% in Q1 2025, with MAN and Scania both expanding their electric lineups.RENAULT CLAIMS EDGE OVER CHINESE RIVALSRenault CEO François Provost claimed the group's European manufacturing efficiency surpasses Chinese rivals, while acknowledging it still uses Chinese supply chains and a China development centre to bring new models to market in under 24 months. With French and European plants running at 85% capacity and momentum from models like the electric Renault 5, Renault is deepening ties with Nissan — both holding 15% stakes in each other — while Nissan's CEO signalled desire for a closer partnership.BYD ATTO 2 DM-I PRICED FOR UKBYD has confirmed UK pricing for the Atto 2 DM-i plug-in hybrid SUV, with orders opening 2 June 2026 and first deliveries in August. The Active trim starts at £26,995 with a 7.8kWh battery and 24 miles of EV range, while the Boost costs £29,995 with an 18kWh battery and up to 55 miles of EV range.OMODA-JAECOO MAKES A FAST UK STARTJaecoo and Omoda launched in the UK in March 2025 with immediate impact — the Jaecoo 7 became that month's best-selling car, and by year-end over 26,000 units had sold, making it the fourth most popular retail car in the UK. The brand reached a 1.4% UK market share, ahead of Seat and Suzuki, built on Range Rover Evoque-inspired styling, competitive pricing, and strong dealer incentives.POLESTAR SAYS FUEL SHOCK DRIVES EV DEMANDPolestar CEO Michael Lohscheller said "pump anxiety" has overtaken "range anxiety" as the key driver of EV consideration, with WTI and Brent crude up 50% since late February due to disruption at the Strait of Hormuz. Polestar is seeing rising demand for both new and used EVs as a result, though eroding US tax incentives and broader cost pressures continue to make the American market challenging.

Despite reporting a quarterly profit decline on 24 April due to higher European sales incentives, Kia says its solid profit base can sustain the strategy, with the upcoming EV2 small SUV set to challenge the BYD Dolphin Surf directly.BYD DENZA Z TAKES AIM AT TESLABYD unveiled the production Denza Z at the 2026 Beijing Auto Show — an all-electric supercar with around 1,000 hp, a sub-two-second 0–60 mph claim, and three variants including a coupe and convertible. Estimated at around $65,000 in China, it targets the Tesla Roadster 2 and is prioritised for European sales, with a Goodwood Festival of Speed debut planned and full technical details due in July 2026.OIL SHOCK COULD SPEED UK EV UPTAKERising oil prices following US and Israeli strikes on Iran and closure of the Strait of Hormuz are shifting the economic case toward EVs, accelerating a consumer tipping point already supported by better batteries. A large EV fleet could transform UK grid stability through vehicle-to-grid systems, with Ofgem estimating that half of projected EVs on V2G by 2030 could provide 16GW of flexible capacity — five times the projected output of Hinkley Point C.PHEVS COST MORE TO BUY AND RUNECIU data shows eight of the UK's 10 best-selling PHEVs carry a higher sticker price than comparable EVs, with an average gap of £4,150 or 10%, even as the average new EV has fallen below the average new petrol car for the first time. Real-world PHEV fuel costs run 490% above official figures, pushing annual fuelling costs to around £1,030 — £620 more per year than an equivalent EV — making total cost of ownership over £1,000 per year higher than going fully electric.OMODA & JAECOO HITS ONE MILLION SALESOmoda & Jaecoo reached one million cumulative global sales in April 2026, just three years after its international debut, recording monthly sales of over 60,000 units in March and operating across 69 markets with 1,364 dealers. Europe drove 41.5% of total global sales, with a 246% year-on-year rise in March, and the brand ranked sixth in the UK with a 4.7% market share — with Omoda & Jaecoo now targeting one million annual sales by 2027.GWM PULLS ORA 03 FROM UKGWM has withdrawn the Ora 03 electric hatchback from the UK market after only 542 units were registered across all of 2025 and just 26 in Q1 2026, ending a four-year run for the model originally launched as the Funky Cat. No new stock will be supplied, with the car available only from existing dealer inventory as GWM shifts focus to a broader European growth strategy.LEAPMOTOR B05 TARGETS EUROPE WITH LOW PRICESLeapmotor's B05 compact hatchback will launch in Europe starting at €26,900 in Italy, undercutting every major rival by at least €10,000, including the Volkswagen ID.3 at €40,990, the BYD Dolphin at €35,000 and the MG4 at €34,000. At 4,430 mm long with rear-wheel drive, 160 kW, a 0–100 km/h time of 6.7 seconds and DC fast charging peaking at 174 kW, it combines size, performance and price in a package that directly targets the mainstream European EV market.US EV MAKERS PRESS DIRECT SALES FIGHTUS EV makers including Tesla, Rivian and Lucid are escalating efforts to bypass the dealer franchise model, which still controls 96% of new-vehicle deliveries, using new legal strategies and ballot initiative threats — though the three brands combined held less than 4% of the US light-vehicle market in 2025. The bigger industry fear is not EV startups but legacy or foreign brands like Volkswagen's Scout Motors breaking the model open for all manufacturers, which could fundamentally reshape US auto retail.MG WEIGHS SPAIN FOR EUROPEAN EV PLANTMG Motor reportedly favours Spain — particularly Galicia — over Hungary for its first European EV manufacturing plant, driven largely by Galicia's strong shipping links to the UK, MG's most important European market. No final decision has been made, but the move is driven by SAIC facing the EU's highest Chinese automaker tariff rate of 35.3%, even as producing cars in Europe will cost more than manufacturing them in China.AVERAGE EV RETAINS 97% OF ITS RANGE AFTER THREE YEARSRecurrent's 2026 EV Market and Trends Report found that the average EV retains 97% of its range after three years and 95% after five years, with five brands — Cadillac, Ford, Hyundai, Mercedes and Rivian — showing zero apparent range loss over five years. Used EV demand surged 53.9% between February and March 2026, with the average used EV now priced at $34,653 — just $1,012 below an equivalent ICE vehicle — while average new EV range for 2026 models rose 11% to 325 miles.

En este vídeo analizamos a fondo lo que he decidido titular como "la estafa de los nuevos Premium". Un fenómeno que se ha vuelto descaradamente evidente tras la crisis de los microchips y la pandemia de 2020. Los fabricantes han aprendido una lección peligrosa para el bolsillo del consumidor: es mucho más rentable vender menos unidades, pero a un precio mucho más alto. Mucho más alto. Históricamente, las marcas generalistas como Citroën, Fiat, Hyundai o Seat vivían de la economía de escala: fabricar millones de coches con un margen de beneficio pequeño por unidad. Sin embargo, el paradigma ha cambiado radicalmente en 2024 y 2025. Grupos como Stellantis o Mercedes-Benz reportan beneficios récord a pesar de vender menos volumen. El "truco" consiste en disfrazar modelos básicos como vehículos de alta gama mediante equipamiento superficial y estrategias de marketing "aspiracional". El triunfo del maquillaje sobre la ingeniería El concepto de lujo ha mutado de forma preocupante. Ya no se busca la sofisticación técnica, el ajuste milimétrico o la durabilidad mecánica, sino el impacto visual inmediato. Las marcas están sustituyendo a los ingenieros de chasis por expertos en "estilo de vida". Te venden una "experiencia vital conectada" para que dejes de preguntar por el tipo de motor o si el eje trasero es multibrazo. Hoy, el lujo se mide en pulgadas de pantalla y en la cantidad de colores disponibles para la luz ambiental. Genealogía de plataformas: El esqueleto compartido Uno de los puntos clave de este ahorro de costes invisible es el uso de las plataformas modulares. Son, básicamente, un mecano gigante. Tomemos como ejemplo la plataforma MQB del Grupo Volkswagen: es la base tanto para un Skoda Fabia de precio contenido como para un Audi TT o un VW Arteon que triplican su coste. Pagas un sobreprecio enorme por la "piel", pero el esqueleto es exactamente el mismo que el del coche de tu vecino. Lo mismo ocurre con la plataforma CMP / STLA Small de Stellantis. Es la base del Peugeot 208, el Opel Corsa, el Jeep Avenger y el nuevo Lancia Ypsilon. Si quitamos la carrocería, serían indistinguibles. Cinco marcas, cinco precios distintos, pero una sola alma técnica. Incluso marcas como BMW han sacrificado su ADN, abandonando la propulsión trasera en sus modelos de acceso para compartir la plataforma UKL con Mini. El resultado es que un Serie 1 actual tiene más en común con un Mini Countryman que con las legendarias "máquinas de conducir" que forjaron la leyenda de la marca bávara. El "truco" de lo aspiracional y los motores compartidos Las marcas han popularizado el término "aspiracional" como un sustituto descafeinado de "Premium". Analizamos casos flagrantes donde el maquillaje intenta justificar precios desorbitados: -Cupra: Un éxito de marketing que logra que pagues miles de euros extra por un Seat León con pintura mate y detalles en color cobre. Mecánicamente, es el mismo coche con más "postureo". -DS Automobiles: Bajo el cuero con costuras de diamante de un DS 7, a menudo late un motor 1.2 PureTech de tres cilindros que podrías encontrar en una furgoneta de reparto. -Alpine: El espectacular A110 utiliza mandos de luces y satélites de audio de un Renault Clio IV en un coche que ronda los 75.000 euros. La pérdida de identidad llega hasta el corazón del vehículo. Hoy, el emblema en el capó no garantiza una mecánica exclusiva. El polémico motor 1.3 de gasolina desarrollado entre Mercedes y Renault (bloque M282) lo monta desde un humilde Dacia Duster hasta un Mercedes Clase A. Mercedes afirma que ellos "lo ponen a punto", pero el bloque de hierro es el mismo. ¿Pagarías por un reloj suizo de lujo si supieras que su maquinaria es un cuarzo básico? China y la obsolescencia digital La irrupción de los fabricantes chinos ha terminado de poner en evidencia a las marcas tradicionales. Marcas como Zeekr u Omoda ofrecen interiores con doble acristalamiento y procesadores de última generación a precio de generalista europeo. Han entendido que el cliente actual valora más un "gadget" que un motor. Un ejemplo brillante de marketing es llamar "piel vegana" a la polipiel sintética de toda la vida para que parezca un avance ecológico y exclusivo. Precedentes históricos: El pecado original Aunque aprovechar piezas viene de lejos, antes era una anécdota de ingeniería. Desde el De Tomaso Pantera con pilotos de Alfa Romeo hasta el Lamborghini Diablo, que usaba los faros de un Nissan 300ZX tapados con una moldura de carbono. Incluso el Jaguar XJ220, el coche más rápido de su época, utilizaba los retrovisores de un Citroën CX por pura eficiencia aerodinámica. La diferencia es que antes se hacía para mejorar el rendimiento o por economía de escala en piezas secundarias; hoy se hace para maximizar el beneficio disfrazando la mediocridad.

Rozhovor s Adriánom Markusekom o vstupe značiek Omoda a Jaecoo na slovenský trh. Zistite, ako vďaka bleskovým inováciám a 96- percentnej robotizácii robia vrásky na čele európskym gigantom. Prečo to, čo iným trvá rok, zavedú za mesiac? Viac si vypočujete v podcaste,

#536 The Future Ahead. We look forward to what's in store in 2026 on the road from the new wave of Chinese car brands. Also: F1 and Le Mans get new teams. Plus: the On Speed FutureScope on humanoid robotics and variable compression ratios.

Vender un coche es casi un arte escénico. Pero, ¿qué pasa cuando, en mitad de la función, el actor principal se tropieza y se cae del escenario? En este vídeo nos centramos en ese instante mágico y horrible a la vez: la demostración pública, el gran evento de prensa donde la marca saca pecho para presumir de su tecnología... y la tecnología decide tomarse el día libre. He asistido a multitud de presentaciones y os aseguro que he visto de todo: desde incendios "por la espalda" hasta vuelcos en directo. Pero hoy vamos a analizar las 10 Demostraciones Públicas -más un Bonus Track- que acabaron en un desastre absoluto. Estos son los casos que analizamos en el vídeo: -BMW y la pintura mágica: El iX Flow prometía cambiar de color con un botón, pero la prensa descubrió que el sistema era lento y que, con el frío, el coche se negaba a cambiar. -BYD y el asistente sordo: Nada peor que el silencio cuando el CEO le habla al coche en una presentación mundial... y el coche le ignora repetidamente. -Chery y su doble fallo: Desde el Omoda 5 arrollando a un "dummie" en una prueba de frenado, hasta el Arrizo 8 congelándose en el escenario en Rusia. -Jaguar I-Pace: Un coche de 80.000 euros que, al igual que el Omoda, decidió ignorar al muñeco-peatón y llevárselo por delante. -Jeep Grand Cherokee: En plena presentación en Detroit, su suspensión neumática falló, dejando al coche "arrodillado" y desinflado en su propio stand. -Mercedes-Benz Clase A: El caso que cambió la industria. La famosa "Prueba del Alce" donde el coche volcó, obligando a la marca a instalar ESP de serie. -Mitsubishi Pajero: El rey del Dakar que, ante la prensa, fue incapaz de subir una simple rampa metálica de exhibición. -Tesla Cybertruck: El momento viral por excelencia. Los cristales "inquebrantables" que se hicieron añicos ante la mirada atónita de Elon Musk. -Volvo S60: La marca de la seguridad estrellando su coche contra un camión porque el sistema de frenado automático no se activó. -Volvo XC60: La secuela del fallo anterior, pero esta vez con peatones reales cruzando delante del coche. -Bonus Track - Jaecoo 7: El intento fallido de subir una escalera para demostrar capacidades off-road, acabando con el coche atascado y patinando en el primer escalón. Estos ridículos en directo demuestran que la tecnología es compleja, pero también nos enseñan una lección valiosa: es mejor probarlo mil veces en privado que fallar una sola vez en público ante las cámaras. ¡No te pierdas el vídeo completo para ver cómo ocurrieron estos momentos que ya son historia de la automoción!

El tema de hoy es uno de los más importantes en el mundo del motor. Porque comprar es fácil. Lo difícil es mantener. Hemos hablado de sus precios y de su tecnología, pero el coche no es solo un producto. Es un servicio. ¿Están las marcas chinas preparadas para “el día después”? Ya están aquí. Miras por la calle y ves un MG. Paras en un semáforo y tienes un BYD al lado. Te ofrecen un Omoda con un precio alucinante... Pero hoy en Garaje Hermético hacemos la pregunta incómoda: ¿Qué pasa cuando se estropea? ¿Avanza la post-venta al mismo ritmo que la venta? 1. La Promesa Sobre el Papel: Garantías de Récord Lo primero que te ponen sobre la mesa es la garantía. Y aquí, ganan por goleada. Mientras la mayoría de marcas se acomodan en los 3 años legales, las chinas han reventado la baraja: -MG (Grupo SAIC): 7 años o 150.000 km. -BYD: 6 años o 150.000 km (8 años o 200.000 km para la batería Blade). -Omoda y Jaecoo (Grupo Chery): 7 años o 150.000 km. Sobre el papel, es una declaración de intenciones. Te dicen: "Confía en mí". Pero una garantía, amigos, no es más que un contrato. Su efectividad depende de la red que tiene que ejecutarla. 2. El Triángulo Roto: La Realidad de la Post-Venta El problema de la post-venta no es el coche; es la logística. Es un triángulo con tres pilares, y si uno falla, todo se cae. -Pilar 1: La Capilaridad (¿Dónde está el taller?) Un coche chino hoy te obliga a morir en el servicio oficial. El taller de tu barrio no tiene ni los manuales ni la diagnosis. ¿Y cómo de grande es la red oficial? MG roza los 100 puntos de servicio. BYD prevé unos 60. Omoda, 80. Suena bien, pero Seat, por ejemplo, tiene más de 300. Si vives en Soria, Cáceres o Teruel, tu taller más cercano puede estar a 150 kilómetros. Tener que hacer 200 km (ida y vuelta) para una revisión es un inconveniente. Si el coche falla, es un problema. -Pilar 2: La Formación (¿Saben lo que hacen?) Estas marcas se apoyan en grandes grupos multimarca. El mecánico que ayer reparaba un Corsa, hoy tiene que diagnosticar un híbrido de MG o un eléctrico de BYD. Requiere una formación específica en alta tensión que no todos tienen, y la velocidad de ventas a veces supera a la de la formación. -Pilar 3: La Logística (El Verdadero Talón de Aquiles) Aquí está el punto crítico. El gran agujero negro. Los recambios. Para un Renault, un faro o una aleta llegan en 24-48 horas. ¿Qué pasa con un coche chino? No hay recambio de competencia. Olvídate. SÓLO existe la pieza original. Todo depende del importador y su almacén central. El drama viene con la "pieza de colisión" (carrocería) o "pieza de baja rotación" (un sensor, una centralita). Los testimonios en foros se repiten: "Llevo un mes esperando un paragolpes", "Dos meses parado por un sensor". Las marcas están montando sus centros logísticos en Europa (Francia, Alemania, España), pero si la pieza no está allí, hay que pedirla a China. Y hablamos de semanas o meses. 3. El Ecosistema Chino: No Todos Son Iguales Sería injusto meter a todas en el mismo saco: -Nivel 1: MG (Grupo SAIC): Víctimas de su propio éxito. El ZS ha sido un superventas. Tienen la red más grande, pero también la más congestionada y desbordada. -Nivel 2: BYD (El Gigante): Van más lentos, con una estrategia "premium" aliándose con los grupos de concesionarios más potentes. Son los más serios y controlan hasta sus propios barcos de transporte. -Nivel 3: Omoda/Jaecoo (Grupo Chery): El movimiento más inteligente. Se han aliado con EV Motors para usar la antigua fábrica de Nissan en Barcelona como su gran centro logístico para el sur de Europa. Esto debería acortar drásticamente los plazos. -Nivel 4: Los "Aventureros" (DFSK, SWM, etc.): El peligro real. Vienen a través de un importador. Si el importador quiebra o decide dejar la marca, te quedas con un "coche huérfano". 4. ¿Qué Pasa Fuera de España? No es un problema solo español. En Reino Unido, MG es un éxito rotundo, pero los foros están plagados de quejas por esperas de meses para piezas de carrocería. La situación es tal que algunas aseguradoras han llegado a pausar la emisión de pólizas. ¿La razón? No es la reparación; es el coste del coche de sustitución. Si un golpe tonto tarda 3 meses en repararse, la aseguradora paga 3 meses de coche de cortesía. Es la ruina. América del Sur es el espejo donde mirarnos: un cementerio de marcas "huérfanas" que llegaron, vendieron y desaparecieron, dejando a los propietarios sin recambios. 5. ¿Es Más Caro o Más Barato de Mantener? El mantenimiento programado (filtros, aceite) suele ser barato. El problema son las reparaciones. El drama no es el precio de la pieza, es el coste de inmovilización. ¿De qué sirve una pieza barata si el coche va a estar parado 8 semanas? Si eres un autónomo, un taxista o un comercial, es la ruina. El verdadero coste es el tiempo.

Nová značka áut Omoda čelí reputačnému peklu pre virálne poľské video. Neverte však všetkému, čo vidíte na internete. My sme jej SUV jazdili týždeň, sumarizujeme pozitívne aj negatívne poznatky z testu. Asi ste aj vy videli video s poľským novinárom, ktorý na čínskom SUV odtrhol volant aj so stĺpikom riadenia. „Ja som mal toto auto celý týždeň, prešiel som ním tisíc kilometrov a viem posúdiť, že táto internetová senzácia je buď zinscenovaný podvod, alebo urputná snaha uškodiť značke Omoda,“ hovorí v podcaste Erik Stríž z portálu Autobazar.EU.V tejto epizóde sa venujeme nielen osobnej skúsenosti s čínskym SUV Omoda 5, ako aj prekvapujúco zaujímavej konferencii Toyoty a BECEPu o zdanlivo nudnej téme - používaní bezpečnostných pásov. Napokon nás odborníci ohromili tým, čo ukázali a povedali. V podcaste budete vidieť a počuť aj známeho lietajúceho doktora Michala Pečíka a zástupcu organizácie BECEP Romana Töröka.Skúsenosti s Omoda 5Značka Omoda je u nás horúcou novinkou, vstúpila na slovenský trh spoločne s ďalšou čínskou značkou áut Jaecoo. Obe patria pod automobilku Chery. O dovoz a servis oboch sa stará dobre etablovaný importér a zaujímavosťou je, že nejde len o elektromobily, ale aj konvenčné benzínové automobily s moderným hybridným pohonom.Testovaný model 5 je stredne veľké SUV, veľkosťou zodpovedá Škode Karoq, Hyundaiu Kona či Citroënu C3 Aircross. Vzhľadom sa nápadne podobá na Nissan Qashqai, ale nemôžeme hovoriť o kopírovaní. Omoda je svojská, poukazujú na to najmä detaily. Naviac, Qashqai je dlhší o 5 centimetrov a rázvor má dlhší o 4 centimetre.Priestrannosť interiéru je však porovnateľná aj s Hyundai Tucson či Kia Sportage. Naše subjektívne dojmy z interiéru boli naozaj pozitívne. Nepostrehli sme vŕzganie, nepresnosti v dielenskom vypracovaní, ani sme nemali dojem, že by bol volant labilný. Samozrejme, nevieme, ako budú povrchové materiály vyzerať o niekoľko rokov. Keď budú Omody dostupné ako jazdenky so 100-tisíc km, pozrieme sa znova.Omoda sa prezentuje ako technologicky vyspelá značka a treba povedať, že na nás aj tak pôsobila najmä vďaka dobre spravenému infotainmentu a bezpečnostným funkciám. Infotainment pripomína systémy v Tesle, Xpengu či v nových Volkswagenoch. Občas sme registrovali menšie spomalenia systému a také udržiavanie v strede jazdného pruhu nebolo úplne spoľahlivé, ale celkový dojem je prevažne pozitívny. Oceňujeme slovenskú lokalizáciu a najmä stabilné bezdrôtové Android Auto. S ním majú teraz automobilky z nejakého dôvodu problémy.Toto je nie elektrické SUV. Omodu 5 poháňa benzínový 1.6 T-GDI, čo je štvorvalcový benzínový motor so solídnym výkonom 108 kW (147 koní). Má krútiaci moment až 275 Nm, automatická prevodovka má 7 stupňov a dve spojky. Vskutku dobrý základ pre dynamickú jazdu.Po týždni však musíme uznať, že nás tento motor mierne sklamal pre svoju veľmi priemernú pružnosť. Na diaľnici nám neraz pripravil nemilé prekvapenie, keď reagoval s oneskorenami a príliš rozvážne. Práca automatickej prevodovky bola chvíľami tiež príliš citeľná, tendencia podtáčať motor je tu zrejme kvôli spĺňaniu nárokov emisnej normy EURO 6e.Lenže pri mestských rýchlostiach sme vedeli oceniť kultivovaný chod, pokojný jazdný prejav a dosť dobrú schopnosť tlmičov filtrovať nerovnosti. Omoda 5 má vzadu vpredu nápravu typu MacPherson, čo je štandard, no vzadu viacprvkovú nápravu multi-link. To už štandard nie je, mnohé európske kompaktné SUV majú vzadu len tuhé nápravy, teda závislé zavesenie kolies. Azda aj to prospieva stabilite vozidla v meste aj pri ofenzívnom jazdnom štýle, no nevyhýba sa nakláňaniu karosérie. A vyslovene nás Omoda 5 vytrápila v miernom teréne, kde sa karoséria vyslovene zmietala. Skrátka, toto auto je určené na spevnenú vozovku, čo najkvalitnejšiu.Omoda 5 ICE na Slovensku ponúka...

Fenomen, petarda, inwazja. Wszystkie te określenia idealnie pasują do zjawiska chińskiej motoryzacji. A już zwłaszcza do sektora samochodów elektrycznych, które coraz szerszą falą płyną do Europy. Chiński BYD już przegonił Teslę pod względem wolumenu sprzedaży, a końca inwazji nie widać. Chińskie elektryki są bardzo tanie, bardzo dobrze wyposażone i już zmieniają przyzwyczajenia polskich konsumentów. Jest tylko jeden szkopuł: coraz więcej głosów wskazuje na to, że chińskie elektryki nie tylko zawiozą nas z miejsca A do B, ale też będą słuchać wszystkiego, co w nich mówimy. A w dodatku wyślą to później do Pekinu. Czy faktycznie jest się czego obawiać? A może wpadamy już w antychińską paranoję? W jaki sposób Pekin od zera zbudował tak agresywny sektor, jakim jest dziś chińska motoryzacja? I czy amerykańskie i europejskie cła są w stanie go okiełznać? Między innymi na te pytania odpowiemy w tym odcinku podcastu "Techstorie".

¡Todo el mundo habla de las marcas chinas! Y pocos las conocen. Si te hablan de Audi, BMW, Mazda, Renault o Toyota, por citar solo algunas, más o menos, sabrías “de que van” y las conoces… ¿Y si te hablo de Aywais, BAIC, BYD, Jaecoo, Nio, Omoda o XPeng, por citar solo algunas? ¿Sabes algo de estás marcas? Es probable que no. Vamos a proporcionaros un mapa claro de este laberinto …para que no os perdáis. Este video lo hemos trabajado mucho todo el equipo… y es que para entender el fenómeno chino hay que olvidar ideas preconcebidas y hay que pensar en tres tipos de especies que conviven en un ecosistema feroz. Primero, los gigantes estatales como SAIC o Chery, mastodontes industriales que crecieron al amparo del gobierno y de sus alianzas con fabricantes occidentales. Segundo, los imperios privados como Geely o BYD, creados por empresarios visionarios, que son más ágiles y tienen una ambición global voraz. Y tercero y último, las startups tecnológicas como NIO o XPeng, nacidas en la era del software y con la vista puesta en destronar a Tesla. La estrategia del gobierno chino fue clara: dominar la tecnología de baterías mientras Europa debatía sobre plazos y normativas. El resultado es que han lanzado una ofensiva global con el coche eléctrico como punta de lanza. Su desembarco ya es una realidad: en España, su cuota de mercado en 2025 se acerca peligrosamente al 10 por ciento, casi el doble que en 2024 que fue del 4,2 por ciento... Ahora, conozcamos a algunos de los actores de esta historia con algunos ejemplos de sus productos con valoraciones. Y digo algunos… porque, a día de hoy, es casi imposible hacer un vídeo con todas las marcas chinas que existen. Creo que hemos hecho una buena selección con las más relevantes. CAPITULO 1: AIWAYS EL PIONERO CON DIFICULTADES. Aiways merece una mención por ser uno de los primeros en atreverse a desembarcar en Europa, allá por 2020. A pesar de tener un producto correcto, les ha faltado el músculo financiero y la capacidad de marketing para hacerse un hueco en el mercado. Abrieron el camino, pero corren el riesgo de ser arrollados por los gigantes que vienen detrás. CAPÍTULO 2: BAIC, EL GIGANTE A LA SOMBRA DE MERCEDES. BAIC es un coloso estatal, socio de Mercedes-Benz y Hyundai en China y uno de los mayores accionistas de la propia Mercedes. CAPÍTULO 3: BYD, EL GIGANTE DE LAS BATERÍAS. BYD siglas de "Build Your Dreams" infunde respeto Este gigante privado, que empezó fabricando baterías para móviles, es hoy el mayor productor de vehículos electrificados del mundo. CAPÍTULO 4. CHERY, EL EXPORTADOR REINVENTADO. Chery es un gigante estatal con un pasado complicado, manchado por acusaciones de copias de baja calidad. Pero han aprendido la lección. CAPÍTULO 5: GEELY GROUP, EL IMPERIO ESTRATÉGICO. Geely no es una marca. Ni tampoco una empresa… es un imperio. Este conglomerado privado, dirigido por el brillante estratega Li Shufu. Son dueños de Volvo, Polestar y Lotus, y socios al 50 por ciento de Mercedes-Benz en Smart. Esta jugada les da acceso a muy buena ingeniería y diseño, que luego aplican a sus propias marcas globales. CAPÍTULO 6: GREAT WALL MOTOR, EL ESPECIALISTA EN SUVs. GWM es otro gran fabricante privado, históricamente especializado en SUVs y pick-ups. Su ofensiva se basa en dos pilares. Por un lado, Ora, con coches eléctricos de diseño neoretro muy llamativos y por otro, Wey, su marca premium enfocada en híbridos enchufables de gran lujo. CAPÍTULO 7: NIO & XPENG, VANGUARDIA TECNOLÓGICA. Estas dos startups representan la cara más tecnológica de China. Para muchos son los coches chinos 2.0. No compiten por precio, sino por innovación y por ser la "alternativa a Tesla". CAPÍTULO 8: SAIC MOTOR Y EL FENÓMENO MG. SAIC es el mayor fabricante estatal de China, socio histórico de Volkswagen y General Motors. Compró los restos de la mítica marca británica MG. CAPÍTULO 9. XIAOMI, DE LA ELECTRÓNICA DE CONSUMO... … a los coches. Gigantes de la tecnología como Google o Apple han tenido malas experiencias intentando hacer coches. Pero en China, Xiaomi ha empezado con éxito. CAPÍTULO 10: LEAPMOTOR, SOCIO DE ESTELLANTIS. Stellantis adquirió en 2023 el 20 por ciento de la joven marca china.

Tu Le and Lei Xing unpack a pivotal month for China's EV sector — one defined by slowing giants, fast-rising challengers, and a global export push that's reshaping the industry.

V 169. epizóde videopodcastu venujeme pozornosť dvom automobilom z našich redakčných testov: čínskemu SUV Xpeng G6 Performance a americkému pick-upu Ford Ranger Wildtrak X. Xpeng G6 a Ford Ranger nie sú konkurenti, pretože sú celkom odlišnými typmi automobilov. Zatiaľ čo Xpeng G6 je luxusné elektrické SUV s dôrazom na komfort v interiéri a technologický náskok, Ford Ranger je úžitkové vozidlo s plnou korbou pridaných hodnôt. Cena oboch testovaných vozidiel je však veľmi podobná, mierne presahujúca hranicu 55-tisíc eur.Test Xpeng G6 PerformanceČínske automobilky valcujú a zrejme skutočne prevalcujú európsku konkurenciu. V uplynulom období na Slovensko formálne vstúpilo hneď niekoľko nových ázijských značiek, spomeňme BYD, HongQi, Xpeng, Omoda, Jaecoo či najnovšie Leapmotor. A pripravujeme sa na príchod BAIC.Xpeng patrí medzi tie zo značiek, ktoré otvorene konkurujú Tesle a modelom EQ od značky Mercedes-Benz. Zaujať zákazníka mieni agresívnou cenovou politikou, no najmä oslovením všetkých zmyslov - vrátane chuti, ak myslíme na metaforickú chuť na inovatívny pohon. Testovacia jazda totiž zaujme natoľko, že človek sa začne spytovať, prečo nie sú európske elektromobily na takejto vysokej úrovni. Jazdné vlastnosti, technologická vyspelosť, vysoká bezpečnosť a úroveň pohodlia vpredu aj vzadu, to všetko G6 ponúka už v základe. My sme mali možnosť vyskúšať verziu Performance, ktorá vyniká obratnosťou, dynamikou a pružnosťou v zdanlivo akejkoľvek rýchlosti. Xpeng G6 Performance testoval Erik Stríž z Autobazar.EU.Text Ford Ranger WildTrak XFord Ranger je najpredávanejší a najobľúbenejší pick-up, ale aj dobrý základ pre imidžové konfigurácie. Verzia WildTrak X obsahuje početné vylepšenia pre náročných, ktoré zlepšujú jazdný komfort, ale aj užitočné doplnky pre jednoduchší prevoz dlhého nákladu.Ako tento naftový pick-up s dvojitým turbom jazdí, v čom sa líši od ostatných verzií a prečo je o 15-tisíc eur drahší ako iná podobná verzia, objasňuje novinár Jozef Murárik.

Welcome back to EV News Daily. Today we're taking a look back at an intense week of EV launches and debuts at the IAA Mobility 2025 show in Munich. IAA this year showcased an unprecedented transition toward electrification across all manufacturers, with nearly every debut featuring some form of electric or hybrid propulsion.  Chinese manufacturers demonstrated particular strength in battery technology and pricing competitiveness, while established European brands focused on premium features and performance electrification. The show marked a clear inflection point where electric vehicles are no longer niche products but mainstream offerings across all segments and price points.
