Die aktuellen Automobilkurznachrichten mit Michael Weyland Thema heute: Das Nationale Automuseum The Loh Collection zeigt die Sonderausstellung „Grand Prix – Ikonen der Königsklasse“ Mit zwei sehr erfolgreichen Sonderausstellungen konnte das Nationale Automuseum The Loh Collection bereits bei den Besuchern punkten. „100 Jahre 24h Le Mans“ und „Ferrari – Meisterstücke für Rennstrecke und Straße“ sorgten dafür, dass der knapp 3.000 Einwohner zählende hessische Ort Dietzhölztal-Ewersbach zumindest bei Automobilenthusiasten eine absolute Größe ist. Dort hat der Unternehmer Prof. Dr. Friedhelm Loh eine der umfassendsten und vielfältigsten Automobilsammlungen geschaffen. Die Idee zu diesem Museum wurde vor sieben Jahren geboren, im Juli 2023 folgte die Eröffnung. Insgesamt 140.000 Besucher kamen bisher, alleine im vergangenen Jahr rund 85.000. 2025 möchte man die 100.000er Marke knacken. Diese Hoffnung wird garantiert erfüllt, die neue Sonderausstellung „Grand Prix – Ikonen der Königsklasse“, zeigt ab dem 12. April 2025 einen Bogen aus den Pioniertagen des Motorsports bis in die jüngste Formel-1-Vergangenheit. Zu sehen ist beispielsweise der Napier 100 HP Gordon Bennet von 1903, der erstmalig die Rennfarbe „British Racing Green“ trägt. Bekannte und weniger bekannte Rennfahrzeuge aus 120 Jahren Grand Prix Geschichte in vielen Farben sind zu sehen. Und auch die Farben haben ihre eigene Geschichte. Prof. Dr. Loh: Prof. Dr. Friedhelm Loh:Ja, wir haben viele Autos hier stehen und eine ganze Reihe, die eigentlich gar nicht so bekannt sind. Die Geschichte der Formel 1 ist eigentlich so 40er, 50er Jahre und danach, die hat aber eigentlich viel früher begonnen, und wenn man von Racing Green spricht, dann ging es immer darum, entweder war die Farbe des Fahrers aus der Nation, aus der er kam - die Farbe des Autos - oder aus dem Land, in dem das Auto hergestellt wurde. Und deswegen findet man in der Formel 1 viele unterschiedliche Farben. Autos hervorzuheben wollte Prof. Loh aber nicht. Prof. Dr. Friedhelm Loh: Dann tue ich den anderen 27 Unrecht, wenn ich Ihnen hier drei nenne. Es sind fantastische Autos, es sind die wesentlichen Marken von Europa, die werden Sie alle dort finden wird er wieder finden – Marken, die es schon nicht mehr gibt. Aber keine Sorge. In der kommenden Woche werden wir Ihnen einen Überblick darüber geben, welche automobilen Kostbarkeiten in der Grand Prix Ausstellung zu sehen sind. Wir werden dann über Bugatti, Alfa Romeo, Auto Union, Mercedes-Benz und Maserati sprechen. Und ja, auch Michael Schumachers Ferrari wird Thema sein!

Kit Chapman - Racing Green: How Motorsport Science Can Save the World... with TRE´s Giles Brown
This episode examines the science behind auto racing by digging into Racing Green: How Motorsports Became Smarter, Safer, Cleaner and Faster, by science journalist and science historian Kit Chapman. In this his second book, following Superheavy in 2019, the former Chemistry World comment editor chronicles how motorsport science is advancing and becoming more environmentally friendly, and he describes that ways in which these developments on the track are changing the world for the better. Chapman uses exclusive interviews with folks at NASCAR's Research and Development Center, Formula 1 insiders, engineers, scientists and drivers to tell this story. For us, he also recounts some of the exotic travels he embarked on to thoroughly research this topic, the fascinating people he met along the way, and lessons he's learned from writing the book. He even talks about the serious curve balls thrown by the Covid-19 global pandemic, and how they showed up in his book, as well as on the racing track, in hospitals and beyond.
Welcome to Episode 170 of our Formula 1 podcast, Grid Talk, and another in our F1 Fireside series.

Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Tuesday 3rd August. 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. BMW SALES OF FULL BATTERY ELECTRIC CARS NEARLY TREBLE IN FIRST HALF - BMW has reported a near trebling of sales of full battery electric cars in the first half of the calendar year, and overall sales of EVs, including plug in hybrids, more than double over the same period. - BMW chairman Oliver Zipse said. “In the first half of the year our sales grew by almost 150 percent. In our domestic market of Germany, nearly one in four BMWs and around 30 percent of Mini sold already have an electric drive train.” The number of fully electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles BMW delivered in the first half jumped by 148.6% to 153,243 units in the first half, while deliveries of all-electric models jumped by 183.9% to 36,087 units. - “By the end of the year, we aim to have a total of one million fully-electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles on the roads and, by 2025, two million pure electric vehicles,” Zipse said. “By then, we aim to deliver ten times the number of BEVs we sold in 2020.” - The all-electric BMW iX has been rolling off the production line at our plant in Dingolfing since July. This will be followed in the autumn by the all-electric BMW i4 from our main plant in Munich.

This battery is lower in price than a lithium-ion battery as it uses less expensive raw materials. CATL's sodium-ion battery has an energy density of 160 Wh per kilogram and it can be charged by 80 percent in 15 minutes. - Panasonic recently announced that it would more than halve the price of its battery. “We will halve the production cost by next year and by up to 70 percent by 2025,” it said. According to industry sources, the current manufacturing cost of electric vehicle battery packs is about US$100 per Wh and Panasonic's goal is US$50 or less. - At present, South Korean electric vehicle battery manufacturers are trying to lower the prices of their products by reducing the content of cobalt in their relatively expensive high-nickel lithium-ion batteries. LG Energy Solution is planning to initiate the mass production of cobalt-reduced and aluminum-added NCMA batteries in the second half of this year.

The company has therefore established a joint venture with TraceTronic, a world-leading provider of solutions to test and integrate automotive software. - Volkswagen aims to accelerate the development of digital functions such as over-the-air updates, which are provided to the owners of ID. vehicles every three months. - Volkswagen can already leverage internal Group synergies in developing software for its fully networked vehicles. CARIAD, the Group's software company, is developing a standard software platform for all Group brands. neocx is a further building block in transforming the Volkswagen brand into a software-based mobility provider and has the goal of integrating the digital functions developed by CARIAD into Volkswagen's vehicles Original Source : https://www.volkswagen-newsroom.com/en/press-releases/volkswagen-and-tracetronic-establish-neocx-a-joint-venture-for-automated-software-integration-7378 2022 NISSAN LEAF FOR $89/MONTH - The 2022 Nissan Leaf rolls into the new model year with a significant price cut for the shorter-range version. The base price of the 149-mile standard Leaf is down to $28,375 with the mandatory $975 destination charge—so $20,875 effectively if you can claim the full $7,500 EV tax credit. Other state or regional incentives might make the Leaf even more affordable. - he Leaf is shaping up to be the most affordable new electric vehicle in the U.S. market for the 2022 model year—undercutting the Mini Cooper SE, which had been the low-price EV leader. - The price cut is all but confirmed as a reaction to the Chevrolet Bolt EV and its $5,500 effective price cut made for 2022, which came with significant updates and a new Bolt EUV model slotting just above the standard Bolt EV in the lineup. The standard Leaf continues with a 40-kilowatt-hour battery pack and a single electric motor rated at 147 horsepower - The 2022 Nissan Leaf S may at launch offer the lowest-priced electric car lease available nationally. It's listed at $89 for 24 months, with $1,449 due at signing Original Source : https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1133108_2022-nissan-leaf-price-cut-cheapest-electric-car-in-the-us-market ELECTRIC VEHICLES: CHINESE AUTOMAKERS TURN TO INFLUENCERS TO MARKET EVS - Meng, or EV Emma as she's known to her 700,000 followers, is among the swelling ranks of Chinese influencers blogging, vlogging, and flogging cars in the world's biggest electric vehicle market. The money is so good that some like Meng, who graduated from Cambridge University in 2013 and worked as a regional business developer in France, were able to ditch their corporate careers. - With all the competing models, carmakers are increasingly using influencers to cut through the clutter. Their preferred messengers: media-savvy young people who use social platforms to talk about and review EVs to legions of followers that stretch into the hundreds of thousands. That makes sense because, rather than dealing solely with a dealership, many EV buyers in China browse online, interact with an influencer, or perhaps go to a high-end mall to view the finished product in a boutique-like setting—all before visiting a dealer lot or ever getting behind a wheel. - As well as being paid directly by automakers for appearances and test drives, influencers make money by charging for social media posts, with the rates they can command typically linked to the number of followers they have. One said he earned 10,000 yuan ($1,550) for posting four shots from the Shanghai auto show.

The Long Range model, which previously started at just over $70,000 but has seen numerous price adjustments recently, now costs $91,190 to start according to Tesla's website. - There's also a more powerful Model S Plaid model available, but its price has not changed since it increased by $10,000 back in June. It starts at $131,190 Original Source : https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a37222155/tesla-model-s-price-adjustment/ TESLA TO START DELIVERING MODEL YS IN HONG KONG AND MACAU - Tesla will start delivering its Model Y sport-utility vehicle (SUV) in Hong Kong and Macau next month in line with mainland China - By the end of last year, there were about 18,500 private EVs in Hong Kong and Tesla accounted for 80 per cent, according to data from the Transport Department. - In Hong Kong, the government is targeting no new registrations of fossil fuel cars, including hybrids, by 2035 or earlier. Original Source : https://www.scmp.com/business/china-business/article/3143526/tesla-start-delivering-model-ys-hong-kong-and-macau-next YOU CAN BUY TOM HANKS' TESLA! - He was one of a very small handful of buyers of the AC Propulsion eBox, a Scion xB converted to run on a 35-kWh electric battery and one of the first electric cars you could buy. And he also purchased a Toyota RAV4 EV back when Toyota was selling those. He has since kept up with the electric car cavalcade, including Teslas. - Hanks' 2015 Tesla Model S P85D is one of four vehicles that are being offered at the Bonhams Quail Lodge Auction August 13 at the Quail Lodge in Carmel Valley, California. The car has only 13,445 miles on it - And it's painted in British Racing Green, Hanks' favorite color. Bonhams estimates the car will go for between $70,000 and $100,000 when the hammer falls in two weeks Original Source : https://www.autoweek.com/car-life/a37182616/tom-hanks-tesla-for-sale - Five different battery variants (40, 60, 85, P85, and P85+) were produced in 2012, with nine exterior color choices including Anza Brown Metallic, and Sequoia Green Metallic.

They actually did the 2008 Roadster in ‘Racing Green'. - Original Source : https://www.findmyelectric.com/tesla-colors-model-s-3-x-y/#2012-model-s NIO DELIVERED FEWER CARS THAN XPENG AND LI AUTO DID IN JULY - By monthly deliveries, Nio came in last among the trio of U.S.-listed Chinese electric car start-ups with deliveries of 7,931 vehicles in July. Li Auto climbed to the top, saying Sunday it delivered 8,589 Li One SUVs in July, a monthly record. Xpeng said Monday it also delivered a monthly record of 8,040 vehicles, three-fourths of which were of its P7 sedan, rather than its other model, the G3 SUV.

Sports fans among you will have heard the urban myth that the German soccer team’s away kit is green because they borrowed the colour from Ireland. Indeed, Ireland has lent its colours to other sports, and today we’re going to talk about motor racing and specifically ‘British Racing Green’ - the colour worn by British motor racers. In 1903, the Irish public - and beyond - were captivated by something called the Gordon Bennett Cup, the first ever motor-race to be held in these islands. Motorsports were illegal in England, and so the fast-paced event took place in rural Ireland. The first ever closed-circuit motor race, it brought massive media attention onto Ireland. Donal Fallon joins Gavan Reilly for another episode of Hidden Histories
This episode of Country Squire Radio is brought to you by Missouri Meerschaum and the Tin Society. We thank them for supporting this show, and we thank you for supporting them. Episode 240: St. Patrick’s Day Special Welcome & Housekeeping: Jon David and Beau are back! Well...back and recovering from the Bachelor Party! Too much Boodles? Important thing to note, Beau did not upchuck from a cigar and he brought the Boodles! Man, what a guy! Anyway, so on arriving to the Squire, mere minutes before CSR showtime, JD gets a package delivered from Pylorns and inside were wedding gifts! The Austin, San Antonio, and Dallas Pipe Clubs all chipped in and got JD a tin of Escudo from 2016, can of McClelland Christmas Cheer 2016, and an Estate Charatan Pipe! And boy was he stoked. What a crazy, impressive gift from the Texas folks. You guys really rock. On an aside, Beau will be playing Sea of Thieves on XBox/Windows 10, so if you know what that is, and plan on playing, please reach out to him via whatever medium you can, Twitter or e-mail are preferred I’d imagine. To keep it brief, it’s an MMOish crew-style Pirate sailing the seven seas kind of game. Should be a ton of fun. I’m personally already down for this, as well as a few others, so hop on board, swab the poop deck, and drink some rum! Raleigh Pipe Expo Reception Party coming up soon on April 6, from 5-9pm at the Ramada Inn on Blue Ridge Rd. in Raleigh, NC. Additionally, there will be a Pipe Carvers Workshop on the 6th as well. The Pipe & Tobacco Expo is on Saturday April 7th, 9am-4:30pm in the Holshauser Building at the NC State Fairgrounds. And a last FYI, there will be no live shows for 2 weeks following Jon David’s wedding next week, but there will be podcasts, so stay tuned and don’t go anywhere. I’m not sure what this means for the show notes for those that read them. They might be typed up post-podcast. I’m not 100% sure there. Topic: Our resident Pipe Leprechauns Jon David and Beau run all the snakes out of the pipe shop and get a wee bit drunk on this St. Patrick’s Day Special! Okay, maybe they don’t drink, but they do talk green pipes! So grab a shamrock shake, dance a reel with your lass, and tune in to this fantastic jig of an episode! First up, we have Savinelli. The Arcobaleno (means “rainbow” in Italian), has a green model that is very lovely looking. Beautiful emerald-green stain, subtle-gloss finish (or rusticated for those that prefer that), black acrylic stem. Takes a 6mm filter for those that are interested. Also has a nice silver band to compliment. Savinelli also makes a style of pipe called the Alligator, which also has a green option. A very unique rustication is presented here with almost a scaly look. Google is your friend here because it’s impossible to describe accurately. Also has a lovely green stem to go with. And for those hardcore Protestant pipe smokers, the Alligator comes in a really snazzy orange too. Be on the lookout! And for those that love snazzy stems, the Clark’s Favorite has an awesome orange tigerseye swirl stem. Really hot looking! Next up we have Paronelli Pipes. Now while they aren’t as popular these days in America, they do have some eye-popping and eye-catching green stains and patterns on the Colorific and Eurocamo styles. Again, here Google is your friend. They are simply impossible to describe in written format. Genod Pipes from France have newer lines of pipes, around the $100 mark, that feature some brilliant greens. There’s no one specific line of pipes, but many of their style and shapes come in a variety of finishes of which some are green. Lastly, Peterson. The King of the Green Stain! The Racing Green is a really popular and sought after line. I’ll provide a link here, so please, if you see one you like, inquire at your local tobacconist first! (https://www.smokingpipes.com/pipes/new/peterson/index.cfm?tag=53). There’s also the Valentia line that resembles the Racing Green pipes, has a green stain and stem, but are nice and small. Kind of pricey at $150, but it’s a good pocket pipe for what it’s worth. And of course, we have the annual St. Patty’s Day pipe, the 2018 edition, which sports a real snazzy matte green finish with a gorgeous yellow army-mount stem fitted into a nickel-silver band. Also for a personal recommendation, from me, Mark VV, check out the Spigot line. Pretty expensive, but the green stain here is equally snazzy and those spigot mounts are wonderful. If you have the pocketbook for a pricier green pipe, this is not a bad choice at all. Pipe Question of the Week: Dan with Creator’s Design Pipes writes in “Hi Jon David and Beau! Sorry to ask a more serious question, but I’d like to get your thoughts on moderation in drinking. After leaving a church denomination that forbade tobacco and alcohol that I served for 20 years, I’ve joyfully entered into the experience of craft beer and ‘brown water’. As a Christian, I am aware of the scriptures commands to avoid drunkenness, so I’m generally a one-and-done drinker. As men of faith, how do you navigate this issue and enjoy spirits yet in biblical moderation? This is not a trolling question, but an honest and sincere inquiry from a brother who is middle-aged and learning to enjoy alcohol responsibly. Thank you for your thoughts and for the wonderful podcast community you’ve created. In Christ, Dan.” Man, what a question, and what an answer. Please check the whole thing out at timestamp 39:00 on the live show YouTube broadcast which I’ll link below. I won’t have the podcast timestamp since the show ain’t out as of this show note transcription, but I imagine it will be between the 35 and 40 minute mark. The key here is moderation and maintaining control without becoming a slave to the particular vice, and Jon David’s elaboration and explanation is right on the money here. I won’t be able to do it justice in writing, so please, listen to this one. Absolutely incredible. Quick Fire with the Squire: Continuing on with Benjamin McMullen’s list. #1 Ancient Africa (Beau) or Ancient Mesopotamia (JD) #2 History of Medicine or History of Weaponry (JD & Beau) #3 History of Pipes (JD & Beau) or History of Cigars (if you voted for this you are a pilgrim and deserve to be blasphemed...just sayin’) Listener Feedback: A. Wanamaker on iTunes says “Great Information, Cool Hosts: This has quickly become my favorite podcast. It has taught me a lot about pipes, tobacco and culture. The hosts are affable and incredibly knowledgeable. I particularly like that the show is family friendly, I can listen to it with kids around and not have to worry about any uncouth language. Thank you Beau and JD for putting out such a fine quality show, I will be listening whenever I can.” Doug Owen writes in and says “This is a follow-up on Jon David’s story about the customer not buying anything. JD, can I borrow Butch Arthur for the summer? Man, I cannot tell you how many times I have had the same conversation with prospective customer. The vast majority of my clientele are great guys and gals but once in awhile you get the one that just does not make the casual connection between purchasing an item in your store and your ability to stay in business and pay bills. I don’t really think they make that connection in their heads. They may be thinking about guys like you and me as fellow pipe smokers with a lot of expertise and it never crosses their mind that it is important for us to make a living at this as well as have a good time doing it. Anyway, that’s my take on it. I just take it in stride, grit my teeth, and keep on puffin’.” Jim Nelson writes in with the results! “The Country Squire (the horse) takes 4th place in the 7th race of the day at Gulfstream Park. The superfecta pays nearly $300.” C’mon buddy! Outrun that glue factory!
