CUPRA

Cupra Born is the first electric vehicle that Seat’s sub-brand will be launching later in the 2021. It is a fully electric hatchback packed with an 82-kWh battery. Cupra Born will be one of the first performance-oriented EV that use the Volkswagen Group’s EV-dedicated modular platform called MEB.
There are three version of this car: Born 45, Born 58, and Born 77. These numbers point out the useable battery capacity. Motor power also vary between these versions. It is being manufactured in Germany at the same factory VW ID.3 and ID.4 are assembled. Cupra Born will be available starting from November 2021 and it will be sold in most of the European countries.
<h2>Performance</h2>
Cupra Born 45 comes with a 150 HP, 310 Nm torque front wheel drive electric motor. It can go from 0 to 100 km/h in 8.9 seconds. Born 58 is much faster with its 7.3 seconds acceleration performance, as it offers 204 horsepower.
Cupra Born 77 will be the highest on the range coming in 2022. It can produce up to 231 HP and reach 0-100 km/h in 6,6 with boost mode. Other technical details of this variant will be announced later.
<h2>Design and Features</h2>
Cupra Born is the sportier version of the VW ID.3, front and back bumpers of the vehicle look very aggressive. On the C-pillar, there are matte black patterns on the C-pillar.
Door panels are half hard plastic and half microfiber material. Dashboard, on the other hand, is soft to the touch and looks very cool. Unlike exterior, interior of the Cupra Born does resemble VW ID.3 a lot. Center display and digital gauge cluster look very similar.
There are lots of capacitive buttons inside the vehicle, as the latest Volkswagen cars also have. That’s not very practical for a performance car, especially the buttons on the steering wheel are prone to accidental touches.
Sports seats look wonderful, and colors used on the interior stuff are really fascinating to look at. The Born is a comfortable car as much as a hatchback can be, and there is enough space for passengers in the back to enjoy the instant torque of this small electric vehicle.
There are USB ports and also wireless charging pad for the mobile devices. The 12-inch infotainment system offers Apple CarPlay and Android Auto wirelessly. You can enjoy the contents from your smartphone with the Beats audio system, as well.
<h2>Range and Charging</h2>
Cupra Born will offer three battery pack options: 45 kWh, 58 kWh, 77 kWh. Ranges according to WLTP cycle are 349 km, 421 km, and 548 km, respectively.
Electric hatchback supports 100 kW DC charging, %0 to %80 in 31-35 minutes. Born 77 will probably be able charged at 125 kW rates. Base model Born 45 only supports 7.2 kW AC plugs, Born 58 and 77 does include an 11 kW on-board AC charger, bringing the full charge time to a little over 6 hours.

Audi, using NCM811 cathode cells produced by Chinese company Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL) in Germany, states that the larger cell form facilitates battery production. Additionally, it emphasizes that the newly developed smart thermal management system enhances battery life by continuously conditioning the battery and reduces charging time.
Regarding the engine, the company claims a 50% increase in efficiency compared to the first-generation electric Audis and states that it can produce more power with smaller motors by increasing power density by 62%. It should be noted that the Q6 e-tron uses an asynchronous ASM motor at the front and a permanent magnet synchronous PSM motor at the rear, differentiating it from the electric #Macan.

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.

Volkswagen is downsizing its largest electric vehicle factory due to low demand
German automotive giant Volkswagen is experiencing difficult times at its Zwickau factory. The company converted into an electric vehicle production facility with an investment of 1.2 billion euros in 2018.
The facility in Germany, which has around 10,700 employees, produces electric vehicles such as ID.3, ID.4, Cupra Born, and Audi Q4 e-tron. According to Autonews, more than 2 thousand employees whose contracts will expire are planned to be laid off after October due to the low demand for these vehicles.
