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.

An electric version of Suzuki&#8217;s well-known Jimny compact off-roader is one of the five new electric cars the company recently announced to launch in Europe by 2030. The first of these Suzuki EVs will be on sale next year. Although it will still be a crossover, it is unlikely to be the Jimny EV. Instead, it may be a production version of the previously unveiled eVX concept.
So far, there is no information available about any of these EVs. The Jimny is anticipated to appear quite similar to the current model, and it&#8217;s extremely probable that it won&#8217;t simply be marketed with an electric powertrain. According to Suzuki&#8217;s latest announcement, which allows open for interpretation, a hybrid variation may also be in the sale.
According to previous reports, the eVX concept car may be the first totally electric Suzuki to go into production. The company, which refers to this vehicle as its first &#8220;global strategic EV,&#8221; claims it will debut in 2025. But that doesn&#8217;t mean it simply won&#8217;t happen the following year.
It is 1.6 meters/63 inches tall, 1.8 meters/70.9 wide, and 4.3 meters/169.3 inches long. That is somewhat smaller than the Grand Vitara crossover and around the same size as the Suzuki S-Cross.
<h2>Jimny Most Futuristic-Looking Suzuki Ever</h2>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-32370 size-large" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/AA16OaZB-1024x576.jpeg" alt="" width="750" height="422" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/AA16OaZB-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/AA16OaZB-300x169.jpeg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/AA16OaZB-768x432.jpeg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/AA16OaZB-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/AA16OaZB-1568x882.jpeg 1568w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/AA16OaZB.jpeg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
Additionally, it gives a sneak peek at what will presumably be the most cutting-edge and futuristic-looking Suzuki ever. Suzuki does not offer drivers a glimpse inside. Though the company did mention that it may have dual-motor all-wheel drive and a 60 kWh battery pack, giving it a range of up to 550 km/342 miles on the Indian MIDC test cycle and likely 500 km/310 miles on the WLTP.
It&#8217;s possible that the electric Jimny also uses this battery pack. If the off-roader is too tiny to fit the battery pack on its floor, Suzuki may switch to the recently introduced four-door Jimny model. Because Jimny&#8217;s wider wheelbase offers more space between the axles for a larger battery pack.

Citroën

Citroen is the brand of the Stellantis group that takes action the fastest to electric vehicle conversion. It was on the agenda last week when it offered the e-C4 X for sale in Turkey. The company is preparing for the introduction of a more affordable model soon. The Citroen e-C3, whose prototype images were shared in India for the first time last year is officially introduced. The electric hatchback, which will go on sale in the near future all over the world, will debut in March 2023, notably in India.
According to Indian media, the budget-friendly electric car will come with a battery with a capacity of 30.2 kWh. Chinese SVOLT will provide the batteries, along with an electric motor that has 87 horsepower, 143 Nm of torque, and 3.3 kW of AC charging support. The electric C3, which will also provide faster DC charging, will reportedly have a range of about 217 miles/350 kilometers.
<h2>Citroen Ami, e-C4, and e-C4 X Went on Sale in UK and Turkey</h2>

The <a href="https://www.licarco.com/citroen-ami">Citroen Ami</a> will cost less than the e-C3, which reportedly looks quite similar to its gasoline version. The model was on sale in Turkey and was less expensive than the <a href="https://www.licarco.com/citroen-e-c4">e-C4</a> and e-C4 X.
The prices of Citroen&#8217;s electric models in Turkey are as follows:
– Citroen Ami – 12,850 $/241,000 ₺
– Citroen e-C4 – 48,025 $/901.000 ₺
– Citroen e-C4 X – 48,450 $/909.000 ₺
It is feasible to state that for the electric version in Turkey, where the gasoline C3 has a starting price of 455,000 lira, the company may provide almost the same pricing due to the 10% SCT advantage. Accordingly, the Citroen e-C3 Turkey price may be in the 500-550 thousand lira band and may become the cheapest four-person electric vehicle option in the market.

<h2>Raised $28 Million In A Seed Round</h2>
&#8220;EVage has just raised $28 million in a seed round (one of the largest in India), driven by new US-based VC RedBlue Capital. It will use the funds to complete its production-ready factory outside of Delhi in the last two quarters of 2022. EVage aims to scale up production to meet growing demand. By the end of the year, there are plans to fulfill orders for customers in the FMCG/Logistics/E-commerce sectors.
Nitin Gadkari, India&#8217;s Transport Minister, has set an ambitious target of 30 percent private cars, 40 percent buses, 80 percent two- and three-wheelers, and 70 percent commercial vehicles being electric by 2030. Mr. Gadkari also unveiled the EVage vehicle for Amazon&#8217;s fleet at the Amazon Smbhav Summit 2021 in April of last year.
This year, EVage plans to introduce Model.X delivery vans with a ton capacity. This is the most popular payload in the small commercial segment.

<h2>The Scout is coming back for the US Market</h2>
VW is one of the world&#8217;s largest car manufacturers, but its share in the US market is relatively small. The plan of bringing the Scout back as an electric off-road brand is to win over the US auto market, where trucks and SUVs are highly demanded. This is the first time that Volkswagen has created a distinct brand focused on the US.
The teaser images of the Scout&#8216;s forthcoming pick-up truck and SUV are recently released. They both feature clean, boxy proportions, chunky off-road tires, and a raised ground clearance. Both vehicles don’t have a traditional powertrain and it enabled very short overhangs, except for the pick-up which has an extended load bay.
For the Scout, Volkswagen will not use the MEB electric architecture which establishes the company’s electric ID range. Alternatively, they will use a new technical platform concept for the offroad EVs of its new brand.
The new lineup of the Scout will be designed entirely for US customers and the price tag will possibly be around $40,000 which is lower than its rivals like Ford F150 Lightning and Chevrolet Silverado. The German manufacturer claims that the prototypes will be released next year, and the first Scouts will be ready in 2026.
<h2>Volkswagen to invest $1 billion into its new brand</h2>

The Scout was first introduced in 1961 by International Harvester as a small, two-door SUV which was produced to be a rival to Jeep. The Scout and second-generation Scout II were produced in Fort Wayne, Indiana, as two-door trucks with a removable hardtop. Production stopped in 1980, and VW acquired the rights to the brand when it bought Navistar International in 2020. (Navistar was created in 1985 when International Harvester went out of business.
Volkswagen is set to invest $1 billion into the new Scout brand. The investments will probably include building a new manufacturing plant and hiring a whole new pile of US-based executives. The company may also seek outside financing for the project, with the possibility of listing the subsidiary on the public markets once it’s up and running.
Nevertheless, the German manufacturer will have to deal with the global supply chain problem, battery material shortages, and high inflation in the coming years. Herbert Diess, the CEO, recently stated that the company has already been sold out on all EVs both in Europe and the US for the year. It means that people hoping to buy an EV from the VW group may have to wait till 2023 because the company is still trying to solve the chip shortage and production issues due to COVID restrictions in China.
