Ny straftold på kinesiske elbiler får nu flere mærker til at hæve priserne. Hør historien i denne uges Bilradio. EU-Kommissionen affyrerede i sidste uge en økonomisk bombe i form af nogle yderst markante toldsatser på kinesisk-producerede elbiler. Tiltaget rammer ikke kun de rene kinesiske mærker, men også en række europæiske modeller, som bliver samlet i Kina. Meget tyder på, at flere kinesiske elbiler bliver dyrere, og den historie kan du høre i denne uges Bilradio. Her får du også beretningen om et klassisk Fiat-navn, der nu kommer til at pryde en helt særlig elbil, som endda kan blive en af Danmarks billigste. Samtidig fortæller eksperterne om seneste nyt i Fisker-sagaen, hvor firmaet nu har søgt om konkursbeskyttelse, en helt ny BMW X3 og facelift af Audi e-tron GT.

Podcasten er blevet til med vores samarbejdspartner GF Forsikring. Afsnit 102 er publiceret d. 19. juni, 2023. Husk I kan støtte op om Bilklubben ved at kigge ind i vores webshop!Richter plejer (igen...) sine syge børn, men heldigvis er Breinholt, Grau og NP klar i studiet til at fremtrylle endnu et afsnit af Bilklubben, og hvad kan du så forvente af dagens afsnit?Grau fortæller om sin vanvittige Alpetur i Norditalien i Toyota GR Supra hvor han tilbagelagde rundt regnet 4.700 km.NP fortæller om sin oplevelse med VW ID. Buzz og vender også den seneste bil han har til test, nemlig en Tesla Model Y Long Range.I nyhederne skal vi kort vende den nye elektriske SUV, Volvo EX30, fordi Grau også gerne vil knytte et par ord til den.Grau kan også fortælle at folkene hos Fisker er begyndt at røre på sig, for han er nemlig blevet inviteret på pressetur til Østrig for at se og forhåbentlig prøve Fisker Ocean i levende live.Vi fortsætter lidt med vores Q&A-tema fra sidst, for NP har samlet lidt spørgsmål sammen, som Grau og Breinholt kommer med gode svar på.Brevkassen er stopfyldt med gode spørgsmål, så der skal naturligvis gives råd og besyv med om bl.a. en familiebil der er sjovere end en VW Passat.OG så er den klassiske '8-ledetråde-quiz' tilbage, med NP som quizmaster!Go' fornøjelse!
Med foråret lige om hjørnet er bilverdenen på kogepunktet med en lang række spændende nyheder. Blandt de nye elektriske biler, der vækker opsigt, er en model fra Ford, som på trods af at have en platform fra Volkswagen, muligvis er endnu bedre end de velkendte modeller som ID.4 og ID.5.I den seneste udgave af Bilradio fortæller værten, Christian Schacht, og den faste gæst, markedsanalytiker Jan Lang fra Bilbasen, mere om modellen, der har fået navnet, Explorer. Men det er ikke kun Fords nyskabelser, der bliver diskuteret i podcasten.Præcis som tæppet af gule erantis i skovbunden blomstrer mange andre mærker op med elbiler. Du kan også høre om en stribe nye Audi-elbiler, der forventes at ramme markedet inden længe. Der er endda en mindre og billigere model i vente på sigt.Bilradio er ikke blot begrænset til elbiler, og i denne uge kan man blive opdateret på de nye Skoda Superb og VW Passat, der vil blive præsenteret senere på året. Derudover er der nyt om den legendariske VW California Camper, der er blevet et ikon i bilverdenen.
Der VW Corrado – Sportwagen aus Kostengründen (1988-1995) Eigentlich sollte der Corrado Nachfolger des Scirocco II werden. Doch irgendwie liefen in Wolfsburg bei der Entwicklung die Kosten aus dem Ruder und ein Corrado wurde plötzlich fast doppelt so teuer wie ein Scirocco. VW reagierte und positionierte das neue Modell eine gute Klasse höher. Das Sportcoupé wurde plötzlich auf dem Papier und damit in den Prospekten ein Sportwagen – vor allem um den hohen Verkaufspreis zu rechtfertigen. Und der Scirocco blieb in Produktion und wurde ein paar Jahre parallel zum Corrado angeboten. Die Kostenexplosion bei der Entwicklung sind seit jeher ein Rätsel, weil der Corrado weitgehend auf Großserientechnik setzte: Bodengruppe vom Golf II, eine Motorenpalette, die ebenfalls in anderen Autos der Volkswagengruppe zu finden war und das etwas triste Interieur aus dem VW Passat. Das einzige wirklich Neue war das unter der Ägide von Designchef Herbert Schäfer gezeichnete Blechkleid: eine für die damalige Zeit mutige, aggressive Keilform. Passenderweise wurde der Corrado auch bei Karmann in Osnabrück und nicht in Wolfsburg gefertigt. Allerdings gab es potente Motoren, zum Debut 1988 einen 1,8-Liter-Vierzylinder, der es mit einem G-Lader auf stattliche 160 PS brachte und ab 1991 einen VR 6 mit bis zu 190 PS - mit 235 km/h Spitze der bis dato schnellste VW aller Zeiten. Mit diesen Aggregaten erzielt der leichte Corrado sportwagenmäßige Fahrleistungen, allerdings zeigt sich das recht brave Fahrwerk dieser Leistung nicht immer voll gewachsen. Als junger Klassiger ist der Corrado ein perfektes Einstiegsauto in das Oldtimer-Hobby. Dank teilverzinkter Karosserie relativ rostresistent, günstige Ersatzteile aus der Großserie, ein noch überschaubarer Kaufpreis bei gleichzeitigem Wertseigerungspotential und vor allem: jede Menge Fahrspaß. Das finden auch Ron und Frederic. Oli ist diesmal etwas verhalten, kann dem Corrado nicht so richtig viel abgewinnen, denn als Opel-Fan sympathisiert er mit dem Calibra. Was das alles mit Winzern, Wirbelwinden und Verdichtung zu tun hat – das erfahrt ihr in diesem Podcast.

Me gustan las rarezas… y me gustan los motores… ¿y si juntamos ambas cosas? Pensé que no encontraría muchos motores raros… ¡y he encontrado 10! 1. 12 cilindros en V. ¿Raro un motor de 12 cilindros en V? Pues no… salvo que provenga de un avión y tenga nada más y nada menos que 46 litros de cilindrada. Y es que, en 1933, BMW metió este motor aeronáutico en un coche llamado, muy apropiado, Brutus. 2. 4 cilindros en V. Nos vamos casi al otro extremo, los V4 del que hicimos un video específico muy recientemente. Es un motor muy poco común que comenzó a utilizar la marca Mors, para sus coches de calle y de Gran Premio. La marca que más recientemente lo ha utilizado es Porsche, quien utilizó este tipo de motor en el Porsche 919 Hybrid para ganar las 24 Horas de Le Mans en 2015, 2016 y 2017. 3. 8 cilindros en línea. Hace mucho los ocho cilindros en línea eran más habituales, pero a partir más o menos de los años 20 se utilizaron más los 8 en V, mucho más compactos. Los han usado marcas como Daimler, mucho Bugatti, incluso Opel y Buick y en competición firmas como Alfa Romeo, Duesenberg o Maserati, entre otras. 4. 8 cilindros en W. El grupo VW tenía un motor 6.0 litros W12, que se instaló, entre otros, en el Volkswagen Phaeton, Touareg, Audi A8 y en el Bentley Continental GT. Pero era muy grande, y querían un motor especial y más pequeño. Ya habían hecho otros motores raros, como los VR4, VR5 y VR6 en V estrecha así que en 2002 pensaron que un W8 era un motor ideal para el VW Passat tope de gama y con tracción total 4Motion. 5. 16 cilindros en V. ¡Más madera! ¡Más cilindros! Nada menos que 16. La verdad es que parece que los motores V8 y V12 tenemos bastante, pero hay quien opina que más es mejor…. como Cadillac, que en los años 30 usó esta configuración… Pero hay dos ejemplos más recientes, en los “Locos años 80” de hecho, dedicamos un video a esos años, “Los años 80 la mejor época del mundo el motor”. 6. 16 cilindros en H. Este es un motor muy querido para mí que conocí en los BRM de slot de la marca Scalextric. El motor H16 se ha utilizado poquísimo, algo más en el mundo de la aviación. Era el resultado de unir dos bóxer de 8 cilindros y ponerlos uno encima de otro, que es lo que hizo la British Racing Motors, o sea BRM, y que fue utilizado en Fórmula 1 por el monoplaza BRM P83, pilotado por Graham Hill y Jackie Stewart. Por cierto, también en el Lotus 43/1 que Jim Clark llevó hasta la victoria en el Gran Premio de Estados Unidos de 1966. 7. Turbina a reacción. No se puede decir que sea rara una turbina a reacción, que se utiliza en la mayoría de los aviones comerciales… pero sí su uso en coches. Pero a comienzo de los años 60 hubo muchos intentos de hacer coches de turbina. El más conocido puede que sea el Chrysler Turbine, del que Ghia fabricó 55 ejemplares entre 1963 y 1964, 50 de ellos para clientes. 8. FreeValve, sin válvulas. En un vídeo titulado “Motores revolucionarios” ya hablamos del Koenigsegg FreeValve. Koenigsegg es conocida por sus superdeportivos, pero además han desarrollado un motor que podría ser el futuro, pues prescinde directamente del árbol de levas y de la correa de distribución. Las válvulas son accionadas de forma individual y de manera independiente del resto mediante unos actuadores controladores electrónicamente. 9. Motor de 5 tiempos. Seguro que conoces los motores de 3 tiempos y de 4 tiempos, pero ¿sabes qué hay de 5 tiempos? Si te digo de ciclo Atkinson seguro que te suena más. El inconveniente del ciclo Atkinson es que al comprimir menos la mezcla genera menos potencia que un motor de ciclo Otto, por eso son utilizados en vehículos híbridos. 10. De pistones opuestos. ¡Cilindros no pistones! En este tipo de motor cada cilindro horizontal aloja dos pistones, uno en cada extremo, que se mueven en oposición entre sí. Es curioso porque ambos conjuntos de pistones accionaban un solo cigüeñal debajo de los cilindros mediante una biela con un balancín configurado como una palanca y una segunda biela. El Grupo Rootes entre los años 1950 y 1960 utilizó este tipo de motor, denominado Commer TS3 diésel instalado en los camiones Commer. Conclusión. ¡Nos quedan más! Por ejemplo, el Wankel, del que hicimos un vídeo exclusivo. Podíamos terminar este vídeo con un “claim” de mayo del 68, aquel que decía “¡La imaginación al poder!”. ¡Yo lo cambiaría por “La imaginación al diseño de los automóviles!” Porque los coches nunca han sido tan eficientes y seguros como ahora… pero tan aburridos y tan similares, tampoco. ¿No podemos tener las dos cosas? Coche del día. A ver, he revisado mis guiones y creo que no me repito. Voy a elegir un BRM H16, pero no uno cualquiera, sino “el mío” … ¿Qué si tengo un BRM H16? ¡Claro! De Scalextric y con él gané muchas carreras, exactamente con este mismo que tengo en mis manos.

Ahh yes, finally back to a normal episode of talking about boring cars and how good or not good they are. This week, we had the pleasure of spending time in the 2022 Chevy Silverado High Country with the refreshed interior. And we'd both pick it over an F-150. We also had a VW Passat, and while it's good, it's also dead, so it doesn't matter. This week, we're getting a BMW iX M60 which should be fantastic as well as an Audi Q3 which is okay. And we're picking up a Polaris Slingshot which should be...interesting. Enjoy!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/daily-motor-podcast/donations

Charlie made it home safely from his honeymoon! However, Alissa's luggage did not. Aside from oogling at the wonderful wagons and mini cars that Europeans get, Charlie and Alissa also rented a Honda CB500F motorcycle to ride through the Swiss Alps. During that memorable life experience, Chris drove a 2023 Mazda CX-50, which was pleasant. This week we get to drive a very rare VW Passat and a very expensive Chevy Silverado High Country. At least it has the refreshed interior.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/daily-motor-podcast/donations
Links in Transcript UT Research Park: https://www.tnresearchpark.org/ Volkswagen: https://www.vw.com/ University of Tennessee, Knoxville: https://www.utk.edu/ Oak Ridge National Laboratory: https://www.ornl.gov/ TranscriptRickey McCallum: So, what are research parks? Why do we need them? What makes collaboration between educational institutions, public entities, and private companies so powerful and finding innovative, adaptive, and real-world solutions? This is the story of the University of Tennessee Research Park, and it's going to talk about that exact thing. So, welcome to the Research Park Chronicles with Rickey McCallum.Rickey McCallum: Hello and welcome to the very first episode of Research Park Chronicles. I'm your host Rickey McCallum and throughout this podcast, I'm going to take you on a journey through the gateway to collaboration. We're going to talk about why university research parks are so integral to innovation, how the UT Research Park came about here in Knoxville, Tennessee, and what it's already accomplished. And in future episodes, we'll dive in even more to future projects within the park, developments between Volkswagen, which is the power behind the research park in UT, and what research parks mean in the future of scientific discovery, technologies, economies, and consumers.But I'm getting ahead of myself here, so let's start from the beginning. I know you're all dying to know, “Rickey, what exactly is a research park, anyway?” Well, I'm glad you asked. University research parks are the physical locations developed and designed to foster an environment of collaboration between universities, the public and private sectors, and the federal research laboratories. In the case of the UT Research Park, the goal is simple: to become a bridge between science and technology companies and the best up-and-coming scientific minds at the University of Tennessee.These are places established to enable a free flow of ideas between R&D institutes, universities, and research labs in order to solve real-world problems with innovation and cutting-edge solutions. And Volkswagen, the powerhouse German car manufacturer known for leading the industry in innovative developments, wanted to create one right here in little old Knoxville, Tennessee. But why? The answer to that question lies 112 miles south of Knoxville. In 2008, Chattanooga, Tennessee, came into focus when VW chose that scenic southern city as the location of its first U.S. auto plant since the closure of the Westmoreland Assembly Plant in Pennsylvania back in 1988. Now, the Volkswagen Chattanooga Assembly plant builds the US-specific VW Passat and the VW Atlas.With their own assembly plant located just over a hundred miles away, the well-established research-centric UT Knoxville at hand, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory just down the road, how could Knoxville not be the perfect location for researching composite materials?Of course, I say that as if it makes complete sense, but when I first began researching this podcast and reading about the UT Research Park, all I could think of is, why Knoxville and how did we get so lucky?But I had a conversation with my good friend of mine, Dr. Leon Tolbert, who works in the electrical engineering and computer science department at the University of Tennessee, and he gave me a little backstory that will put it all of this into perspective.Dr. Leon Tolbert: So, when Volkswagen first built their plant in Chattanooga, they came to the University of Tennessee—and that was probably more than 10 years ago—and wanted to engage the university because they were looking at hiring graduates of our university, they were looking at working with faculty, and they donated, I think, a pretty substantial sum of money at that time to fund research in engineering. And so, the College of Engineering then gave out grants to faculty who were doing work related to electric vehicles and, I believe, got a couple of those grants, and worked with students on things related to power electronics for electric vehicles. But then, I guess things just kind of coasted along there for a few years, and then, more recently, a couple of years ago, they approached again wanting deeper involvement, and came and looked at the work we were doing already related to electric vehicles, visited our department several times, and then approached us about establishing a Volkswagen fellowship for graduate students, and in that fellowship, they would hire the students to work full-time at Volkswagen while they were pursuing their PhD. And this kind of follows the model in Europe where a lot of the PhD students basically are full-time employees of companies, but they're pursuing a PhD, and they wanted to do something similar here at UT.Rickey McCallum: And they did just that. VW approached UT and created an incredible program for PhD students to work full time on research projects that directly impact real-world struggles. Now, when these students complete this program, they're going to be ready and have applicable real-world experience to show for all their hard work, and have a foundation of research already in place. So, Dr. Hendrik Mainka, project manager and team lead of UT's Innovation Hub, told us a little bit more about the PhD program.Dr. Hendrik Mainka: Yeah, I think that the PhD program probably is pretty unique for the US. I mean, we have a PhD program in Germany at our headquarters where, always, the PhD students are Volkswagen employees. I think that's a huge one, too, a lot of the PhD fellows here and in the US, so PhD fellows you will talk to later, they are all Volkswagen employees, and we're really working with them as our people to make sure we having this close connection, not only to the university, also for our students to really real-life problems, you know? You're working on a wireless power transfer, for example, that's something we want to see the next years being implemented in our cars. And so your PhD research really has a high impact. Same with the research on sizing to optimize our composite parts. That's really applied research on a PhD level, which really helps the company moving forward with the innovations, and also having the students working on real-life problems. I think that's really unique and hopefully, it's beneficial for both sides.Rickey McCallum: It all already sounds pretty great right? A world-renowned, industry-leading auto manufacturer choosing our Knoxville, Tennessee university to start exploring composite materials for more affordable, energy-efficient vehicles we can make right here in the same state.Yeah, it's really awesome, and it gets better. VW didn't just stop at the UT Research Park. In 2019 they announced that they wanted to use Knoxville as the site of their very first North American Innovation Hub. Now, in a partnership between Volkswagen, UT, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the Innovation Hub will be an extension, or rather an expansion of the Research Park, and it will further develop research opportunities for UT doctoral students with a focus on electrical engineering and developing lighter components for composite materials.And those opportunities have already begun with the very first wave of doctoral fellows. William Henkin, a VW research fellow at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, gave us a little more insight on just how incredible this PhD program has already been.William Hankin: It's an incredible experience and the fact that I'm the first one kind of paving the way, trailblazing it makes me kind of smile to myself and, like I said, it's validation on everything I've done to this point. As a grad student, you don't necessarily get those feelings all the time, so you got to take advantage of it when you do. [laugh].Rickey McCallum: trailblazing. [laugh]. I like that. That's the perfect way to describe both the program in general and your research projects and goals. What is it specifically that you're focusing on in the Innovation Hub, William?William Hankin: Volkswagen is very interested in next-generation vehicles. And an extension of that is electrification and lightweighting. And so a lot of the work I'm doing is in the lightweighting aspect. And so I'm looking really at composite materials: how to make them stronger, more efficient, and how to implement them in automotive application. So, Department of Energy here in the East Tennessee area is huge. They have the National Transportation Research Center, and they work closely with University of Tennessee, Knoxville, so we have great supporting casts, academic, adjunct faculty, collaboration is prolific and Volkswagen really saw that as an opportunity to put down some roots in this area. And we're really the first generation of fellows here, but I expect this to grow, a lot.Rickey McCallum: and grow it most certainly will. So, this is VW is the very first North American Innovation Hub. And as I said, it means that Knoxville is going to be joining the ranks of Berlin, Tel Aviv, and Tokyo, renowned sites for establishing VW Innovation Hubs.It still sounds just a little too good to be true, or at least it did to me. So, I asked Associate Vice Chancellor for Research at the University of Tennessee rather bluntly, “What's up with that?”If you look at Volkswagen's global footprint, where the Innovation Hubs and their centers and stuff are located, Knoxville's not considered a Tel Aviv or a Tokyo type of location. And so I'm curious if you have any insight of what may have been their thought process, and why Knoxville? I mean, why move here to establish this Innovation Hub?Marc Gibson: Yeah, so that's a good question. I had the opportunity, actually, to visit their Tel Aviv hub last November and I was kind of wondering the same thing, to be honest. I was like, “That puts us in pretty, pretty prestigious company,” I was really excited about that. I had an opportunity to sit down with the folks in Tel Aviv and they outlined why they're there and what the motive was for Volkswagen to locate a hub in Tel Aviv. And certainly, it was around their innovation, their startup culture that they have there, so I knew right away, it was a little bit different why they were looking into Knoxville. I think they look at Knoxville as the future hub for materials and manufacturing. And I think there's a lot to be said, obviously, for the strengths that we have here. But I think they also looked at the vision that the University of Tennessee had and the relationship that we have with ORNL, and I think they really felt like we could move together. Together we can move a mountain and really create something special here.Rickey McCallum: Dr. Uday Vaidya, a Governor's Chair for Advanced Composites Manufacturing at UT followed that up.Dr. Uday Vaidya: as you know, the ecosystem here in Tennessee is very unique. We have a very large, signature flagship university, University of Tennessee, the world's largest DOE lab in terms of materials research, Oakridge Lab, just 20 miles away, the manufacturing demonstration facility at Oak Ridge, and the industry network, which combines along with IACMI which is, again, a very unique piece in this whole equation. So, the entrepreneurial aspect of it is almost natural in that because there are so many technologies that are at play, and a lot of the students and personnel work throughout, you know, in terms of progressing to a certain endpoint as part of their academic career, many of these students are extremely entrepreneurial already. But now that gives them a purpose and a real vision of where their business and entrepreneurial skills could get to. So, we have a number of such examples of students starting companies as part of their PhD or masters training, like the Innovation Crossroads program between Oak Ridge and UT makes a very good case for these students to get seed funding and going. So, the hub that you have here, or the Innovation Hub is a key part of the entire process because now that gives a real home to these kind of ideas to set up, whether it's a space, or an asset, or a process, or the infrastructure required for such a daunting step that they would take. So, such a thing is extremely easy because of operation like the Innovation Hub.So, I believe it should become a very natural relationship on multiple fronts. The technology is just one piece of it. I mean, you have the manufacturing side, you have the materials side, the electrification, battery, so many aspects of Volkswagen's interests which fall within that. But alongside, there's a huge need for the workforce development and then the training, not only at the PhD level but also all the way from the technician people on the shop floor. So, you need multiple points of engagement with the company. So, I think the vast range of programs that UT could offer, along with Oak Ridge and the ecosystem, will continue to engage VW in a continuous way. So, that will also then excite their supply chain, the tier suppliers, tier one, two, three. So, they will want to set up operations in the proximity. So, it has a cascading effect of benefit for sure.Rickey McCallum: A cascading effect. That's the perfect way to describe the blossoming partnership that just keeps going between UT and Volkswagen. And it's certainly cascaded into some wonderful research opportunities and projects. And since Dr. Hendrik Mainka has been there from just about the beginning of the cascade, we turned to him for a little more information on that partnership.Dr. Hendrik Mainka: The conversations, at least, I have been empowered, have started around about in 2015. I think everybody remembers when IACMI, the Composite Institute, was founded in Knoxville. Awesome event with President Obama on-site announcing the DOE-sponsored institute and, yeah, Volkswagen is proud to be a founding member of this Institute, which is basically led by University of Tennessee in Knoxville. And I think that's basically how everything started. And in the following years, we had several IACMI projects together with UT to develop lower-cost, high-speed manufacturing, really efficient method for automotive lightweight composites. Also looked at recycling processes with UT together and the last years. And I think, really, the highlight of this project is a Volkswagen Atlas liftgate. And I think that's pretty much how it began, and how we started our cooperation with UT. And finally, in 2015, we opened the Innovation Hub in Knoxville, which is another major milestone in this development. A big part of innovation is basically co-creation. So, if you're working with companies or experts from different fields, that basically creates a lot of innovation in the way that new ideas are trickling into your field of expertise, and we see that, for example, with some of the UT faculties where we combining fields like AI with material research, which is really kind of a new way to create innovations. Or when we're working with experts of your Carbon Renewable Center to create really innovative materials for automotive applications. We're working with producers of paper and plastics on the other side, and then combining that to awesome new products. I think that's really where you see innovation taking place. So, it's really the capability of having all these different people available for Volkswagen to work with and have this cooperation with UT. I think that's how you might want to describe innovation.Rickey McCallum: Throughout this whole discussion, we've heard from several different perspectives of the evolution of where the partnership came from, and most importantly, where it evolved into. But which really came first? Was it the Innovation Hub that started the conversation? Was it the liftgate project, or specific research that defined really what the Innovation Hub was going to be? Or was it neither? Don't worry, listeners, this isn't the chicken or egg scenario. We do have an answer. A good one, from Marc Gibson.Marc Gibson: Yeah, that's a good question. So, the liftgate project was really kind of our launchpad. That's an IACMI project, led by several of our faculty members here that I think you're probably also going to talk with Dr. Uday Vaidya, and then Dr. Dayakar Penumadu. That project got off the ground and really, I think, excelled their thought process on the confidence that they would have and what we are capable of doing. And so I think once we established that we could do the work and that we had the expertise—and that we had the equipment here. I mean, if you look at the resources that we have here, it's pretty phenomenal. On a global scale, I'm not sure that anyone in the world has the type of capabilities that we have here between UT and ORNL. The cool nuance there is essentially what they do is they identify a project, okay. And they come to us and they say, “Can you solve this project?” And we connect them with a faculty member that we think can solve the problem. And then they create a statement of work, the faculty member goes and identifies a PhD student, and then Volkswagen pays the PhD student to go to school at UT. We're talking about the liftgate on the back of one of these vehicles. To do something like that—you know, I think Volkswagen told me at one time—and you have to ask them, but I think they told me at one time to get something like that changed and on the assembly line on one of their vehicles, it typically takes, like, five years. And, you know… we [laugh] we fast-tracked that. I mean, you look at what we were able to do. I mean, we were able to do that really in like two to three years, and it's now going to be manufactured, going on the assembly line, and consumers are going to be able to buy vehicles that are going to be manufactured in Chattanooga, that had University of Tennessee and Oak Ridge National Laboratory technology in it. I mean, how cool is that? But you can kind of look at some of the other projects that are taking place now, too. I mean, it's not just around lightweighting and composites. Now they're moving into batteries. One of the big things—and you'll have to ask Volkswagen a little bit more about this, but one of the big things about that plant is they've also started almost a billion-dollar infrastructure improvement slash addition, in Chattanooga—and you got to think, that plant's less than 10 years old—to do all battery work and battery research. And so they're really going to be looking at faculty members here. In fact, two of the projects that they've kicked off already are going to be housed in our Department of Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, and doing battery work. And I think that speaks volumes; they're not just here to do composites and manufacturing, but they're here to access other areas of expertise, too, which I think is pretty cool.Rickey McCallum: So, Marc mentioned the liftgate project. Let's talk about that. It's the project that is really the main focus right now here at the UT Research Park. So, we're going to get into a little bit more details and specifics about that in one of our next episodes, but it's the first project in which the Research Park is actively working to find an innovative solution to a real-world problem. And it is very important to Tennessee specifically because while research parks do work hard here in Knoxville to create the solution, the VW plant in Chattanooga is working hard to implement that said solution. So, the entire project from start to finish is being handled right here in East Tennessee. So, of course, when it comes to a project like that, we have to think ahead to the impact the project will have on the future. So, what does this project mean for the future of the Innovation Hub in 5, 10, 15 years?Dr. Uday Vaidya: Sure, so in the liftgate project one type of intermediate materials have been used, but composites offer such a broad design space. It's like a painter's palette, really, you can choose a range of different things and come up with unique innovations every single time. So, it just offers innumerable possibilities for futuristic designs. So, the Volkswagen liftgate project, as you know, was one of the first signature projects for IACMI under the Composites Institute. Volkswagen is a key company in the Tennessee area. In Chattanooga, they're producing vehicles. Most of the current vehicles require lightweighting because of possibilities for energy savings, energy efficiency, less fuel consumption, and so on, so every ounce that you save from the vehicle's weight impacts the economy in terms of its cost savings down the road. So, the whole idea from Volkswagen, currently their liftgates are made out of stamped steel, sheet metal, which is good. Excellent material, but there's a lot of potential that composites offer, such as high-impact resistance, ability to tailor, create deep draws, complex shape parts, and near net shape parts. So, we had a good potential there to use all the attributes of composites towards this application, and that's where the unique combination of IACMI, Oak Ridge, University of Tennessee, this ecosystem came into play, of course with other partners as part of this project.So, really, all our industry-related projects are highly valuable because it provides the students and the staff working on it a real-world opportunity. So, everything they're doing has a purpose, meaning, and an actual tangible product, process, et cetera, down the road, that they can see what their research is actually leading into. The Volkswagen project, like any other project, obviously engaged a number of students—both undergrad and grad students—towards problem solving all the way from design process, process modeling, testing, characterization, you know, the whole process of designing a part all the way to the end product, so they could actually see the fruits of the labor at different stages as it was going on. So, that led to a lot of fundamental research along the way for PhD and masters students, as well as a lot of experiential learning for undergraduate students, who had never even seen or known what composites was about, that gave them the opportunity. So, when they now put their CV together—or resume—they would have a huge impact. When they go to their interview, they can actually speak in terms of real-world opportunities they have been faced. So, it's a very valuable relation and experience.Rickey McCallum: And of course, the liftgate project is only the beginning, only one of many projects and research studies being done in the Innovation Hub. So, Dr. Tolbert, some of the topics of discussion that we've had around Volkswagen's partnership is around technologies for future electric vehicles, including power electronics and wireless charging, what's the future of EV, in your mind, with this partnership, and how the University of Tennessee can help advance the technology and innovation that Volkswagen is looking for?Dr. Leon Tolbert: So, I was really excited when Volkswagen approached us to talk about electric vehicles and their plans that they're doing in Chattanooga to build new vehicles, mostly because I've worked on electric vehicles since the 1990s. A lot of that was through Oak Ridge National Lab and the research that they're doing at National Transportation Research Center; they've been working on electric vehicles since the early '90s. And I really see electric vehicles, and just electrification of transportation in general, as a bright future and a trend that's global. We've done quite a bit of work on looking at traction drives using silicon carbide wide bandgap materials to electrify vehicles. And I think, as we've seen, a lot of companies are pursuing autonomous vehicles and that's also going to require electrification of vehicles in order to be able to charge a while they park and things like that. So, we really see a bright future, and we're very excited when Volkswagen came and wanted to work with us on this.So, at the University of Tennessee in our department, we have a wide bandgap traineeship for graduate students, and that was funded by the US Department of Energy specifically to attract US citizens to work on wide bandgap power electronics. And we've had probably more than two dozen students in that program since it's initiated, and most of them are MS students. And I think Volkswagen saw that program, saw our general strengths in power electronics, saw the tremendous amount of work being done at Oak Ridge National Lab, and came and wanting to partner with us in that area. And so they were interested in a couple of students coming out of this traineeship, transitioning to become VW Fellows and pursue PhD, and I think what we like as faculty in working with industry is we want our research to eventually end up being used somewhere. And so it really helps inform our research to make it real-world applicable. And I think students, too, really gain a lot in working with industry because what they're working on, they hope one day will show up in a vehicle. So, I think obviously, there's lots of technologies that go into cars, and we've talked about the electrification of transportation, and so I do think there is quite a bit of room to grow in just drive train technology, there's a lot of room to grow in autonomous vehicles, a lot of room to grow in energy storage and battery technology. And I think this is a unique place, having Oak Ridge National Lab, TVA, University of Tennessee, and all of the research that goes on here. I would be remiss if I don't also mention CURENT. It's an NSF DOE engineering research center dedicated to looking at the future electric grid. And so we have one of the top programs in the country in power systems and power electronics, and more than 100 graduate students in that area. And so this is just really a great place for things like that.Rickey McCallum: So, there you have it. Now you know exactly what a research park is and how Knoxville ended up not only with one but also as the home of a VW Innovation Hub. So, next time we're going to dive in a little deeper. That's right, we're going to get into the projects, specifically the liftgate project, which is the UT Research Park's first project to solve a real-world problem in the VW Atlas. And it just may have been the siren's call that drew attention back to Knoxville and convinced VW to bring their North American Innovation Hub to us. So, find out more next time in the Research Park Chronicles.And thank you for listening to the Research Park Chronicles with Rickey McCallum. We'll pick up here next time with the rest of this story.

Dagens avsnitt är ett samarbete med GoMore och handlar om bildelning. Bildelning i avseendet att tjäna pengar på att hyra ut sin befintliga bil, eller spara pengar genom att vid behov hyra bil istället för att äga den. Tidigare i höstas gjorde vi fyra avsnitt om bilekonomi i samband med att vi sålde vår bil och köpte en ny. Nora kontaktade oss då och påpekade – det som flera av er också påpekat – att det faktiskt är ett alternativ att INTE ha bil. Det är faktiskt ganska mycket pengar man lägger på en bil om man räknar med allt – i vårt fall nästan 8 000 SEK i månaden inkl. allt. Dessa pengar kan man – beroende på ens prioriteringar – använda bättre. T.ex. att använda en bildelning- eller en bilprenumerationstjänst där man hyr bil vid behov (eller som en läsare påpekade göra typ 40 taxiresor för 200 kr per månad
Host Tom Appel and co-hosts Jill Ciminillo and Damon Bell start off the show by discussing the impending discontinuation of the Volkswagen Passat midsize sedan, as well as VW's other product initiatives.

Few cars offer enthusiast-grade driving dynamics with family practicality. The 2021 Hyundai Sonata N-Line does. Then the designers throw in concept car styling to sweeten the deal. THEN the deal gets even sweeter with an MSRP of $34,305. Yes, that’s with shipping and pretty much loaded. And the 2.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder makes 290 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque so fun is always on tap. And it has launch control!

Denn bei Jens Dralle und Sebastian Renz um nicht weniger als die Zukunft der Mittelklasse. Denn bei Modellen wie Ford Mondeo und VW Passat, war es zeitweise nicht sicher, ob sie überhaupt noch Nachfolger bekommen – wegen des ganzen SUV-Booms. Also: Was ist die Zukunft der Mittelklasse - vielleicht ein Stromer wie Tesla Model 3? Wie geht es in der Premiumliga weiter, bei Audi A4, BMW Dreier und Mercedes C-Klasse? Dazu gibt es auch viel zu besprechen über das, was es nur noch zu sehen, nicht aber mehr zu besuchen gab: All die spannenden Neuheiten, die es dann eben nicht auf dem Genfer Salon zu sehen gab, von Porsche Turbo bis zu einer neuen Variante der Renault Alpine.

Happy Holidays dear listeners, we hope this episode brings you joy. Maybe not the same joy that Ian felt when he gazed upon a bagged VW Passat wagon, that would not be appropriate for the dinner table, but some other kind of much more socially appropriate joy. We love you.
2019 VW Passat Review The 2019 Volkswagen Passat is the last model year of Volkswagen's seventh-generation midsize sedan. And, that's a model year that I like to buy for a couple of reasons. First, they've been doing it for a while so they've definitely got it 'right'. Second, the all-new next generation coming out. So, deals are ripe for the making! And, my friends at Ontario VW recently gave me a 2019 Volkswagen Passat for a day of test-driving around Southern California's Inland Empire. -->Continue reading and listen below.
More than 30 million Passats have been sold since 1973, making it one of the most successful mid-size models around. Now after a facelift, VW’s introducing the latest version of the vehicle. The real novelties are under the hood.
A standard-setter, revamped – the VW Passat. We also test BMW’s summer classic and look at an electrified tour de force from Lexus.

Join Jeff Allen and Ethan D. as they spend the weekend at Texas Motor Speedway and catch up with Tanner Foust, star of Top Gear US, who has gotten his toes wet in Rally Cross, stunt driving and is again showcasing his drift skills, but this time in a heavily modified VW Passat. Tanner Foust talks what he would have told himself way back in the days when he was wrenching on cars at SCCA races. Kareless Originals takes to the mic and shares their philosophies on marketing, not working in a cubical and doing whatever makes you happy. We speak to the President and Cofounder of Formula Drift, Jim Liaw. Curious how he made his empire? Why Japans Formula D didn't franchise to him?

IWVM019 - VW Passat TDI, dunkelgrau
Auto - Rund ums Auto. Fahrberichte, Gespräche und Informationen
Ich stelle mir gerade vor, wenn ich in der Schule die Frage nach dem Passat mit den Worten: "Das ist ein Auto aus Wolfsburg" beantwortet hätte! Mein Lehrer hätte mich sehr merkwürdig angeschaut. Nun muss ich zugeben dass ich die Schulbank zu einer Zeit gedrückt habe, als man auf die Frage nach dem Passat wie folgt hätte antworten müssen. Zumdest als Klassenstreber.„Der Passat (vom Portugiesischen „passar“, dt. vorbeilaufen, -ziehen, -gehen oder ital. passata, dt. Überfahrt) ist ein mäßig starker und sehr beständiger Wind, der in tropischen Seegebieten bis zu etwa 23,5° geographischer Breite rund um den Erdball auftritt.“ Aber das hätte wirklich nur unser Klassenstreber so sagen können!
