HiPhi

🟢Announcing that it will convert diesel mining trucks to electric in 2021 together with #ABB, #Hitachi shared that the first vehicle has been produced.
⛏️The giant truck started to be used in a copper-gold mine in Zambia. It climbs with an electrical connection that feeds the battery, similar to a trolleybus, while going to pick up load. When turning downhill while loaded, it recharges its battery thanks to regenerative braking.
🔋In this way, ABB and Hitachi completed the transformation with a smaller one instead of a megawatt-hour battery. They made this possible thanks to the regenerative braking ability of the huge electric motors seen in the prototype photo.
🔌Mining truck&#8217;s previously had a giant internal combustion engine with 16 cylinders and 2,534 horsepower. It will relatively reduce the impact of mining on the environment by ending diesel consumption and zeroing out emissions after the conversion to electric.

In an era where automobiles are increasingly packed with cutting-edge technology and safety features, one area that still poses a significant risk on the road is blind spots. These elusive areas surrounding a vehicle are a leading cause of accidents and near-miss incidents. Fortunately, <a href="https://www.blindspotmonitor.com/aftermarket-blind-spot-monitoring-systems/">aftermarket blind spot monitor</a> solutions have emerged as a promising way to enhance road safety, giving drivers an extra set of eyes to navigate the complex world of traffic.
<h2>The Blind Spot Challenge</h2>
The concept of blind spots is simple: they are areas around a vehicle that cannot be directly observed by the driver through mirrors or by turning their head. These hidden zones, which vary in size and shape depending on the vehicle&#8217;s design, are hotspots for accidents. When drivers change lanes or make turns without properly checking their blind spots, they run the risk of colliding with other vehicles, pedestrians, or cyclists.
The challenge of blind spots is not limited to any specific type of vehicle; it affects everything from compact sedans to massive trucks. Manufacturers have made strides in incorporating blind spot monitoring systems into newer vehicles, but the majority of cars on the road lack this feature. This is where aftermarket blind spot solutions come into play.
<h2>Aftermarket Blind Spot Solutions: The Basics</h2>
Aftermarket blind spot solutions are additional safety features that can be added to a vehicle after purchase. They are designed to detect objects or vehicles in the driver&#8217;s blind spots and provide warnings to alert the driver to potential hazards. These solutions typically include radar or ultrasonic sensors, cameras, and displays.
<h2>Types of Aftermarket Blind Spot Solutions</h2>
<ol>
<li>Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM): BSM systems use sensors, typically located on the sides of the vehicle, to monitor the blind spots. When a vehicle enters the blind spot, the system alerts the driver through visual or auditory cues. Some advanced BSM systems can even intervene by applying slight steering or braking inputs to prevent collisions.</li>
<li>Rearview Cameras: While not exclusively focused on blind spot detection, rearview cameras are a common aftermarket addition that can help drivers see what&#8217;s behind and beside their vehicle when reversing or changing lanes. These cameras are often integrated into the vehicle&#8217;s infotainment system.</li>
<li>Blind Spot Mirrors: Another simple but effective aftermarket solution is the blind spot mirror. These convex mirrors are installed on the side mirrors of the vehicle, providing a wider field of view and reducing blind spots. They are an affordable option for enhancing safety.</li>
<li>Audible Alerts: Some aftermarket blind spot solutions use audible alerts, such as beeping sounds, to notify drivers when a vehicle is in their blind spot. These alerts can be particularly useful for drivers who find visual cues distracting.</li>
</ol>
<h2>Benefits of Aftermarket Blind Spot Solutions</h2>
<ol>
<li>Enhanced Safety: The primary benefit of aftermarket blind spot solutions is improved safety. By providing additional awareness of surrounding vehicles and objects, these systems reduce the risk of accidents caused by blind spots.</li>
<li>Cost-Effective: Retrofitting a vehicle with aftermarket blind spot solutions is often more affordable than purchasing a new vehicle with built-in blind spot monitoring. This makes it a practical choice for drivers looking to enhance safety without breaking the bank.</li>
<li>Compatibility: Aftermarket blind spot solutions are designed to be compatible with a wide range of vehicles, making them accessible to most drivers. Whether you own a compact car or a larger SUV, there&#8217;s likely an aftermarket solution available for your vehicle.</li>
<li>Customization: Drivers can choose from various aftermarket solutions to suit their preferences and needs. Whether they prefer visual alerts, audible warnings, or a combination of both, there&#8217;s a solution that can be tailored to their liking.</li>
</ol>
<h2>Considerations When Installing Aftermarket Blind Spot Solutions</h2>
While aftermarket blind spot solutions offer numerous advantages, it&#8217;s important for drivers to consider a few key factors before installation:
<ol>
<li>Professional Installation: Many aftermarket blind spot solutions require professional installation to ensure proper placement and functionality. DIY installation may lead to suboptimal performance or even damage to the vehicle.</li>
<li>Compatibility: Ensure that the chosen aftermarket solution is compatible with your specific vehicle make and model. Consult with a reputable installer or manufacturer to confirm compatibility.</li>
<li>Warranty and Support: Research the warranty and support options for the aftermarket solution you choose. A reliable warranty can provide peace of mind and protection against potential defects.</li>
<li>Maintenance: Like any technology, aftermarket blind spot solutions may require periodic maintenance and updates to ensure they continue to work effectively.</li>
</ol>
In conclusion, <a href="https://www.blindspotmonitor.com/product-category/for-commercial-vehicles/blind-spot-detection-systems/">aftermarket blind spot detection</a> solutions are a valuable addition to any vehicle, offering enhanced safety and peace of mind for drivers. While they cannot replace responsible driving habits, they serve as an extra layer of protection, reducing the risk of accidents caused by blind spots. As technology continues to advance, these aftermarket solutions will likely become even more sophisticated, further contributing to road safety. So, remember: when it comes to your safety on the road, it&#8217;s always better to be safe than sorry.

Electrify America will bring the fast-charging EV network to over 25 IKEA stores in 18 different states of the US. The number of fast chargers will be over 220 and have a capacity of up to 350kW. Electrify America is planning to install the first chargers by the end of the year and the remaining ones by the end of the next year.
Ikea USA CEO Javier Quiñones said that their collaboration with Electrify America will bring ultra-fast public chargers to their stores for the first time and will help them become circular and climate positive. Ikea plans to become fully electrified in its deliveries by 2025.
In the light of the electrification of its deliveries, Ikea is also partnering with Electrify America’s commercial division to plant another 225 individual charging at its several business sites. By doing so, Ikea wants to encourage its customers and employees to own electric vehicles. Previously, Blink Level 2 charging stations were installed at multiple IKEA stores as early as 2011.
<h2>The latest partnerships between charging networks and B&amp;M businesses</h2>

Daimler Trucks has opened the eTruck Charging Park in partnership with Netze BW, a subsidiary of EnBW.  The charging station is in Wörth, Germany and this is the place where the German company manufactures the all-electric eActros and eEconic trucks.
The charging station for e-trucks is equipped with a total of six different charging units from the companies Siemens, ABB, Ekoenergetyka, and Alpitronic, with outputs between 40 kW and 300 kW on an area of around 2,000 square meters.
Daimler Trucks claims that the customers will have an opportunity to experience the efficiency, range, and charging characteristics of the electric trucks. Also, this will allow customers to develop a complete electric solution for their personal needs with the assistance of the experts on site. The park is also equipped with a photovoltaic system on the roof and an energy storage system. As a “proof of concept”, it is intended to demonstrate possibilities for an efficient power supply for the charging columns.
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;">New Approach and Experience in the Transformation to e-Mobility</h2>

Michael Scheib, Head of Product Management at Mercedes-Benz Truck states that the main goal of the company is to offer our customers more than just an electric truck in the transformation to e-mobility.  He also says that the German manufacturer intends to provide an integrated solution that includes consulting and charging infrastructure solutions from a single source. “Our charging park for customers in Wörth is an integral part of this approach and shows customers, practically and tangibly, what charging infrastructure for their application can look like,” Scheib adds.
Axel Hausen, Head of eMob Major Projects, Marketing &amp; Special Projects at Netze BW’s Services Division, says: “Besides the technological development of all the necessary components, the development of the electric charging infrastructure is one of the factors crucial to the success of electric heavy-duty transport. Together with our parent company, EnBW, we are contributing a lot of expertise in charging infrastructure and the energy industry to the project. In Wörth, we are working with investors such as e-fleet operators, truck manufacturers, industrial and commercial customers, and municipalities to develop individual charging solutions, especially for depot logistics, that will help electric heavy-duty transport take off.”
Overall, opening a charging park seems to be a different approach to familiarizing potential customers with electric trucks and their specific needs. If this can help convince fleets to switch to EVs, we might see other manufacturers also building similar stations like this.

Stellantis has become the second-largest stakeholder of Vulcan Energy Resources by investing €50 million in the German-Austrian lithium producer. The off-take deal for lithium hydroxide between Vulcan and Stellantis has been extended to ten years.
The Stellantis group has announced on “EV Day” in July 2021 that they will turn to lithium from geothermal production. After that, in November 2021, the company placed a binding order for up to 99,000 tones of lithium hydroxide over five years from Vulcan. The order is conditional to the beginning of commercial manufacture at Vulcan and full product qualification.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-14862" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/stellantis-vulcan-energy-min.png" alt="" width="1000" height="500" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/stellantis-vulcan-energy-min.png 1000w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/stellantis-vulcan-energy-min-300x150.png 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/stellantis-vulcan-energy-min-768x384.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" />
The separate announcements by Vulcan and Stellantis have not cleared the air about whether Stellantis still has above reservations or not. However, the statements by Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares showed that the company’s rationale is the same as when the off-take deal was agreed on: “Making this highly strategic investment in a leading lithium company will help us create a resilient and sustainable value chain for our European electric vehicle battery production.”
<h2>The off-take deal has been extended to 2035</h2>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-large wp-image-14864 aligncenter" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Foundation-2-scaled-1-1024x576.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="422" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Foundation-2-scaled-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Foundation-2-scaled-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Foundation-2-scaled-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Foundation-2-scaled-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Foundation-2-scaled-1-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Foundation-2-scaled-1-1568x882.jpg 1568w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
According to Stellantis, the investment will be utilized for the “drilling project to expand Vulcan’s production capacity at its site in the Upper Rhine Valley”. Vulcan’s managing director Francis Wedin declared that the major investment by Stellantis in Vulcan and the Zero Carbon Lithium Project shows a strong statement by one of the world’s largest car manufacturers regarding sustainable and strategic sourcing of battery materials. He also stated that “Vulcan is fully aligned with decarbonization and electrification goals of Stellantis, which represent some of the most ambitious in the industry. It is encouraging to see a leading automaker investing in local, low carbon lithium production for electric vehicles.”
The two companies have also extended the binding off-take agreement for the lithium hydroxide by five years to 2035. However, new delivery quantities are not mentioned in the notices. Thus, it is open whether the previous purchase volume of 81,000 to 99,000 tones will also double like the term.
Stellantis has also announced its plans to reach 100% of passenger car battery electric vehicle (BEV) sales mix in Europe and 50% of passenger car and light-duty truck BEV sales mix in the United States by 2030 in the light of the Dare Forward 2030 strategic plan. Stellantis will be the industry champion in climate change mitigation, becoming carbon net-zero by 2038, with a 50% reduction by 2030.

At the Einride Mesh conference, Swedish company Einride introduced new software and hardware products including design concepts of the Einride Trailer and new features and functionality on the Einride Saga platform.
Einride is a freight technology company founded in 2016 and develops electrified commercial mobility solutions and autonomous Class 8 trucks. The company launched its first EV in 2018 and it’s called T-Log which is an autonomous all-electric logging truck. After the T-Log, the Swedish company unveiled the Pod, which is a similar all-electric, driverless truck. The Pod’s public road tests had begun in 2019 in Sweden and will be on the roads in the US soon.
Einride increasingly invests in the USA and announced last November the plans of having a new headquarters in New York. Also, the freight technology company will start the training of Remote Pod Operators in Texas after the Pod hits the roads.
Along with the Pod trucks, Einride also manufactures E-Trucks with the data-driven Saga OS software to optimize fleets and logistics. In 2022, the Swedish company plans to launch 200 electric Class 8 trucks from BYD in the US and has already partnered with Maersk to increase the electrification of the freight segment.

Lunaz Applied Technologies, together with Lunaz Powertrain and Lunaz Design, is a division of the Lunaz Group. The latter continues the endeavors that initially piqued sector interest some stunning electric conversions of classic Jaguar, Bentley, and Rolls-Royce models. The company takes obsolescent vehicles that are no longer in running condition and are &#8220;under threat&#8221; of being lost completely.
Lunaz has been doing with commercial trucks is highly probable to be far less contentious while that may elicit strong reactions from car collectors and those who want to preserve classics in their original form.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-11147 size-large" src="https://apidb.voll-stack.de/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/lunaz-upcycled-1024x576.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="422" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/lunaz-upcycled-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/lunaz-upcycled-300x169.jpg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/lunaz-upcycled-768x432.jpg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/lunaz-upcycled-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/lunaz-upcycled-1568x882.jpg 1568w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/lunaz-upcycled.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
Lunaz upcycled recycling truck &#8211; based on Mercedes-Benz Econic garbage truck
<h2>Cheap And Less Carbon Footprint</h2>
According to Lunaz, it is modular but still brand agnostic. It will mix and match existing components to develop the best solution for each truck. It claims that its transformed trash trucks are &#8220;significantly cheaper&#8221; than buying a brand new electric truck. They save 80 percent of the embedded carbon (related to manufacturing) by choosing this type of truck over a new electric truck. Supposing they have roughly equivalent efficiency, this could result in a substantially lower environmental impact over the life of the vehicle.
For varying route lengths, the upcycled electric garbage trucks use modular battery packs ranging from 275 kWh to 400 kWh. Peak torque is 5,162 lb-ft/6,99 n-m, and perhaps in the tradition of Rolls-Royce, Lunaz does not release a horsepower figure, instead stating that it is &#8220;fast enough of it to block traffic forming behind it.
Indoor specifications, the highly developed trash truck will have a 12 inch/30 cm tool screen as well as two 10 inch/25 cm display screens. One for camera display devices and the other for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. There&#8217;s also a wireless charging tray. And Lunaz claims to have used similar materials from its upcycled Bentleys in the UEV interior.

<h2>Under Warranty</h2>
This type of commercial electric truck has already been done previously, though perhaps not in a relatively similar way. Lightning eMotors in Colorado begins with used commercial trucks, vans, and motor coaches. Additionally converts them to all-electric vehicles.
Compressed natural gas (CNG) is the most common fuel for newer garbage trucks in the United States. 
So far, as a new model, the Mack LR Electric garbage truck has made inroads in the United States. New York City purchased seven demonstrators from the aforementioned company last year after using one in 2020. DAF has been testing all-electric garbage trucks in the Netherlands.
The Mini Recharged program, in which Mini itself oversees the conversion of classic Mini Coopers to electric drive, comes the closest. So far, that program is only available in the United Kingdom.
Lunaz claims its trucks are under warranty as new. The level of detail here may well be the difference as it scales up for its home market of the United Kingdom and possibly beyond.

According to the manufacturing company, the Ford E-Transit Custom van (there will also be a passenger version) is developed from the ground up to bring a no-compromise all-electric design to offer a destination WLTP range of up to 236 miles/380 km, the full towing capability of up to 2,000 kg, DC fast charging, and Pro-Power Onboard feature to provide exportable power for tools, lights, and devices while on site. More information is expected to be released in September.
&#8220;This is a watershed moment for European commercial vehicle operators and another hugely significant realization of our Ford Pro ambitions,&#8221; said Hans Schep, general manager, Ford Pro, Europe. &#8220;Europe&#8217;s greatest van has gone all-electric, and the sustainable way to businesses all over Europe cannot be exaggerated – endorsed by our distinctive Ford Pro one-stop-shop of productive output services.&#8221;
The Ford E-Transit Custom is the first of 4 major electric commercial trucks from Ford that will be released by the end of 2024 (in addition to the existing Ford E-Transit manufactured in the United States and Turkey). To assist its electrification plans, Ford will establish a battery JV in Turkey with SK Innovation&#8217;s SK On (30-45 GWh annually).
<h2>Electric Power For Everything And Everything In Its Place</h2>

ProPower Onboard technology will also provide exportable power for tools, lights, and devices while being on-site, one of the functionalities evolved using in-depth insights from van users to ensure E-Transit Custom delivers an unrivaled customer experience.
Ford announced earlier this year that four new all-electric vehicles will join the E-Transit two-tonne van as part of the iconic Transit family by 2024, including the Transit Custom and Transit Courier vans, as well as the Tourneo Custom and Tourneo Courier people movers.

Volta Trucks

Volta Trucks, a Swedish electric truck startup, received €230 million in its Series C funding to support the start of production for its first fully electric vehicle. European EV producer signed a contract with Steyr Automotive last year to build electric trucks together at Volkswagen&#8217;s heavy-duty vehicle factory in Austria.
The first Volta vehicle to be manufactured will be called Volta Zero, a 16-tonne electric truck. Volta has already received more than 5,000 soft orders with a total value of €1.2 billion. Zero will offer up to 200 kilometers of range on a single charge. It will also have two battery pack options, the base model with 150-kWh capacity and a 225-kWh high capacity trim. The electric truck will carry up to 8,200 kg of payload, and reach up to 90 km/h when fully loaded.
<h2>Volta Zero to enter mass-production at MAN&#8217;s old Austria plant</h2>
Steyr Automotive is the manufacturing partner of the Volta Trucks, as the two companies signed an agreement last September to jointly produce Zero truck. It will enter mass production at Volkswagen&#8217;s Steyr plant where MAN trucks are manufactured. VW will end production in that facility as soon as this year, after that Volta Trucks will move in to start operation. Swedish startup estimates an initial production of 5,000 trucks in the first year. The annual production capacity of the old MAN factory will be around 27,500, according to Steyr Automotive&#8217;s plan.
Aside from the 16-tonne Zero truck, Volta will also design and manufactured both 7.5-tonne and 12.5-tonne fully electric trucks. €230 million Series C funding will mostly cover its financial needs for the production of Volta Zero. It has already gathered more than 5,000 orders just by showing some prototypes to commercial buyers, which is enough for investors to put hundreds of millions of euros.
Volta Trucks will start deliveries of its electric truck in mid-2022. Mass production is also due in 2022. Here is the promo video that shows Volta Zero&#8217;s special design:
