Mercedes-Benz

Mercedes EQS is a luxury electric sedan, direct competitor to the Tesla Model S Plaid. It is the first electric Mercedes that designed on a purely EV intended vehicle platform. German carmaker uses its new design language called ‘bow design’. Its drag coefficient is only 0.20, it is one of the most aerodynamical vehicle in the world.
EQS can produce up to 761 horsepower and a mind-boggling 1,020 Nm torque. AMG version of the luxury electric sedan can go from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds. AMG EQS 53 and the EQS 580 4MATIC variants are capable of all-wheel drive. All Mercedes EQS models come with a huge 108-kWh battery pack, offer up to 770 kilometers of range. It takes only 31 minutes to charge EQS from 10% to 80%, thanks to 200 kW DC charging support.
Mercedes has been producing the new luxury sedan EQS at Factory 56 in Sindelfingen, Germany. EQS is already available in some European countries, pricing starts at around €120,000 and goes all the way up to €200,000.
<h2>AMG EQS Performance</h2>
Mercedes AMG EQS 53, top of the line version, can produce 761 HP and 1,020 Nm of torque. It has a top speed of 250 km/h and acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h only takes 3.4 seconds. Dual motor all-wheel drive AMQ EQS is not as fast as Lucid Air or Tesla Model S though, but it is still one of the fastest AMG vehicles on the market.
EQS 580 4MATIC comes with two electric motors and an AWD drive system, as well. It has 523 HP, 855 Nm torque, and 210 km/h top speed. It can complete a run from 0 to 100 km per hour in 4.3 seconds. Rear-wheel drive version of the luxury electric sedan, the EQS 450 has only 333 HP and 568 Nm of torque. 0-100 km/h performance is around six seconds.
Rear-wheel steering is an option with the luxury electric sedan. It improves the high-speed stability, very helpful with the tight turns as well. When you’re going slowly, EQS will move its rear wheels the opposite direction and enable a narrower turning cycle which is very useful when driving around the city.
<h2>AMG EQS Design and Features</h2>
Mercedes EQS does not look as fancy as the concept it is based on which is called Vision EQS. But it is indeed a head turner, beautifully designed long body looks really sleek, and the frameless windows are very impressive. Front grille is fully closed as usual, and the headlights carry the distinctive look of every other EQ-series electric vehicle has.
There are dozens of little Mercedes logos all throughout the front of the vehicle. Trunk cannot be opened, because of the aerodynamical reasons. For what it’s worth, Mercedes EQS is one of the most aero-efficient vehicles on earth right now.
Interior of the EQS is dominated by the huge cluster of displays, or the ‘MBUX Hyperscreen’ as Mercedes calls it. It consists of three separate displays sitting beneath the extremely durable Corning Gorilla Glass.
Door handles pop up, like the latest Mercedes S-Class. All four doors open and close automatically as well, adding quite a bit of luxury. You can also control all doors electronically via central screen.
Head-up display has a very unique feature called “Augmented Reality Navigation”. Huge HUD can basically trick you to believe that it projects navigation instructions directly onto the road ahead. This AR sat-nav technology is only available as a camera feed feature in other Mercedes EQ models.
<h2>AMG EQS Range and Charging</h2>
All three versions of the EQS will have a whopping battery capacity of 108 kWh. AMG EQS offers 580 km range, according to WLTP test cycle. EQS 450 has a range of 770 km, longest range among three variants. AWD EQS 580’s range is around 680 kilometers.
Mercedes EQS supports 200 kW DC charging, from 10% charge to 80% in 31 minutes. It has a built-in 22 kW AC charger, fully charging the EQS only takes 5 hours.

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.

Lucid’s next SUV will compete with Model Y!

British sports car manufacturer Aston Martin has announced that it will cooperate with Lucid Motors on electric vehicle platform development and electric motor supply. By the agreement, Aston Martin will eventually pay Lucid $232 million in exchange for a 3.7% stake in the company.
Aston Martin, which has been on the agenda many times due to its financial difficulties and even received a serious offer from Geely this year, has no intention of changing hands. Canadian billionaire Lawrence Stroll, the company&#8217;s largest shareholder, had partially rejected the Chinese offer and agreed to sell only 7% of his shares a few weeks ago. Geely thus became the company&#8217;s third-largest shareholder.

The Saudi Wealth Fund, Aston Martin&#8217;s second-largest stakeholder, will support the electrification strategy that would assure its existence. Aston Martin will play a significant role in the realization of American Lucid Motors&#8217; aspirations for electric vehicles thanks to the deal announced today, according to the company, in which the fund owns the majority of the shares.
Aston Martin announced that it will introduce its first entirely electric vehicle in 2025, using both the light, strong, and efficient engines developed by Lucid. Additionally, Aston Martin will work with Lucid Motors to develop the vehicle architecture necessary for the conversion of the whole Aston Martin car lineup to electric.

Exciting Partnership from Aston Martin and Lucid Motors

Ford

The new clean vehicle tax credit, which came into effect in January 2023, is bringing down the cost of owning an electric vehicle. Before the IRA (Inflation Reduction Act), popular brands like Tesla and General Motors were not eligible because of the sales limit. Thanks to new legislation, some of the best EVs, such as the Tesla Model Y and Chevrolet Bolt now qualify for the tax credit. But electric vehicles assembled outside the US are now disqualified.
Normally, when an EV manufacturer sells 200,000 vehicles in the United States, the $7,500 federal tax credit halves to $3,750, and that process repeats a few times before being reduced to no credit. Tesla and General Motors already sold more than enough eligible EVs. So, there is no tax credit for these brands, right? Not quite. Let us explain.
With the Inflation Reduction Act, the 200,000 sales cap on tax credit is gone, and EVs from Tesla and General Motors are once again eligible for the tax credit. But there are now price caps for different kinds of vehicles. We try to sum up some of the new details of tax credit eligibility and created a list of vehicles eligible for the tax credit in the United States.
Update 2 (18th Feb, 2023): Genesis Electrified GV70 became the first Hyundai Group EV to earn tax credit eligibility. The luxury SUV is being produced at Korean carmaker&#8217;s Alabama plant.
Update 1: All Tesla Model Y variants, Ford Mustang Mach-E, VW ID.4, and Cadillac Lyriq are now eligible under the SUV MSRP cap $80,000, according to latest regulatory changes made by <a href="https://www.irs.gov/credits-deductions/manufacturers-and-models-for-new-qualified-clean-vehicles-purchased-in-2023-or-after">IRS</a> on February 3rd, 2023.

According to <a href="https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/hybrids-evs/electric-vehicles-that-qualify-for-new-ev-tax-credit-a9310530660/">Consumer Reports</a>, new tax credit rules will go into place in March 2023. This new bill will limit the credit value based on the vehicle&#8217;s battery origin, the origin of the battery materials, etc. And starting in 2024, the tax credit eligibility will be lost, if any materials of the battery are from &#8220;foreign entities of concern&#8221;, such as China and Russia. EV manufacturers are notifiying customers to finalize their order before the new rules take effect.
<h3>Do Leased Electric Vehicles Qualify for Tax Credit?</h3>
The EV tax credit requirements will get stricter each year through 2026. By the time all rules go into effect, a large portion of electric vehicles will lose their eligibility. But there is an alternative to purchasing an EV to benefit from clean vehicle incentives.
If an electric vehicle is leased, most of the requirements for purchasing a vehicle may not apply. For instance, you could lease an EV made outside the US and still get a tax credit. The credit will be received by the dealer, not the person leasing the vehicle, but it is up to your leaser to pass the saving on to your payments.
Thanks to new rules, expensive electric vehicles like Lucid Air, and Tesla Model S may also benefit from tax credit if a customer chooses to lease instead of purchase.

Which Electric Vehicles are Eligible for Tax Credit in US? | 2023 List

Tesla

<a href="https://www.licarco.com/cars">Electric vehicles</a> are getting really popular, but the main concerns, such as short range and long charging times that hold conventional vehicle owners back from switching sides are still yet to be solved. That is where higher-voltage electric vehicles are coming into play. Tesla recently announced its 1000-volt system and hinted more Tesla vehicles will benefit from the new tech. Future EVs will eventually make the switch from 400V to higher voltage systems.
800V or higher voltage electric vehicles are capable of delivering <a href="https://www.licarco.com/news/top-15-ev-charging-networks-in-the-us">ultra-fast charging</a> rates and offer higher performance while improving the efficiency of the all systems. 800V electric vehicles can only be possible by employing an 800V battery and using SiC (Silicone Carbide) inverter, proper cabling, OBC (On-board Charger), DCDC converter and other electrical equipments that support higher voltage levels. Conventional electric vehicles come with 400V electrical architecture as standard. Because of the voltage limit, today&#8217;s electric vehicles are limited to a maximum of 400-volt when they are connected to a DC charging station. In order to reach higher charge rates, current levels should go up to 600A or even more, which is not ideal for the infrastructure that charging stations heavily rely on.
The first higher-voltage EV is the Porsche Taycan, which has a cutting-edge 800V inverter built-in. Its DC charging rate can go as high as 270 kW with the proper charging setup. After that Hyundai and Kia developed an alternative 800V charging tech to avoid using an expensive 800V SiC inverter. In late 2021, Lucid Motors launched its first vehicle Lucid Air with an industry-leading 924V system developed by <a href="https://eepower.com/news/wolfspeed-announces-the-lucid-air-is-using-its-sic-power-modules/#">Wolfspeed</a>. And one year later, Tesla unveiled its first 1000V vehicle architecture with the launch of the tri-motor electric truck Tesla Semi. <a href="https://spectrum.ieee.org/ev-charging-800-volt">General Motors</a>, Volkswagen, and, of course, Chinese brands such as Aion, Avatr, Xpeng, Zeekr, BYD, Voyah and Li Auto have also been developing 800V high-voltage electrical systems for their EVs.
In this article, we researched our way into higher voltage electric vehicles and created a list of benefits of owning an 800V EV.
<h2>Faster Charging Compared to 400V Electric Vehicles</h2>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-32268" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ionity-ultra-fast-charging-stations-1024x683.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="500" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ionity-ultra-fast-charging-stations-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ionity-ultra-fast-charging-stations-300x200.jpg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ionity-ultra-fast-charging-stations-768x512.jpg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ionity-ultra-fast-charging-stations-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ionity-ultra-fast-charging-stations-1568x1045.jpg 1568w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ionity-ultra-fast-charging-stations.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
800V or higher voltage systems allow electric vehicles to be charged at as high as 480 kW, <a href="https://www.licarco.com/xpeng-g9-awd">Xpeng G9</a> proved. Regular 400V electric vehicles aren&#8217;t capable of doing that, because of the charging infrastructure&#8217;s current limit. When you plug your 400V vehicle into a DC charger, you limit your session to 400-volt. To provide faster charging speeds, EV charger should deliver more current, sometimes as high as 600A or even more (The third-gen Tesla Superchargers can deliver up to 660-amper). In order to increase the current, thicker and water-cooled cables are needed. Even using these expensive cables are not enough to lower down the charge efficiency, as conduction losses will increase up to nine times.
EV manufacturers have been developing 800V charging technologies to overcome this fast-charging problem. Some companies such as Porsche/Audi, Lucid Motors, and Xpeng use SiC inverters inside their EVs. These next-gen SiC inverters can handle higher voltages and also improve efficiency. Hyundai and Kia took a different approach to this matter. Korean automakers developed a technology that manages to provide 800-volt charging by using electric motors as generator and a regular IGBT inverter.
Thanks to more advanced electronics, 800-volt charging enables vehicle owners to reach up to 480 kW DC charging rates. For instance, Xpeng G9 and Aion LX Plus are already on sale that support ultra-fast 480+ kW charging. Lucid Air can go as high as 300 kW. Porsche Taycan did perform similiarly. Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6 is also capable of delivering up to 240 kW DC charging speeds. 800V charging is definitely the future of EVs!
<h3>More Efficient &amp; More Powerful Electric Drivetrains</h3>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-32291" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/lucid-motorsports-edu-tech-1024x696.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="510" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/lucid-motorsports-edu-tech-1024x696.jpg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/lucid-motorsports-edu-tech-300x204.jpg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/lucid-motorsports-edu-tech-768x522.jpg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/lucid-motorsports-edu-tech-1536x1044.jpg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/lucid-motorsports-edu-tech-1568x1066.jpg 1568w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/lucid-motorsports-edu-tech.jpg 1938w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
By switching to a 800V architecture, EV manufacturers can make use of higher voltage motors as well. Porsche is the first company to implement an 800V electric motor into its vehicles. Higher voltage improves overall power density of the motor unit and it reduces the maximum torque required to achieve the same output power due to extended RPM range.
As the DC link voltage of the EV motor units increase, the current levels decrease. This leads to lower copper loss and improves efficiency of the electrical traction systems. Higher voltage motors are also tend to produce more power than lower voltage solutions.
From the efficiency perspective, the next-gen SiC inverters used inside 800V electric vehicles are also much more efficient. <a href="https://www.licarco.com/byd-yangwang-u8">BYD recently unveiled</a> its first SiC inverter developed in-house, which scores an efficiency level of 99.5 percent.
<h3>800V Architectures Mean Lighter Electric Cars</h3>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-32293 size-large" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/electric-vehicle-cabling-hybrid-drivetrain-1024x683.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="500" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/electric-vehicle-cabling-hybrid-drivetrain-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/electric-vehicle-cabling-hybrid-drivetrain-300x200.jpg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/electric-vehicle-cabling-hybrid-drivetrain-768x512.jpg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/electric-vehicle-cabling-hybrid-drivetrain-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/electric-vehicle-cabling-hybrid-drivetrain-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/electric-vehicle-cabling-hybrid-drivetrain-1568x1045.jpg 1568w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
800-volt electrical architectures can be created by using thinner cables between the battery pack and the inverter, DC charging port, OBC, and other equipments. As a result, 800V electric vehicles will use less copper and that would reduce the overall weight of the car.
Higher voltage electric motors are also significantly lighter and more power-dense than regular lower voltage units. That means 800V electric vehicles can be equipped with smaller, lighter motors. That creates more room for batteries as well.
<h3>Reduced Cost of Cabling, Less Copper Used Inside the Vehicle</h3>
Electric vehicles use more copper than any other vehicles. It takes 2 to 4 times more copper to build an EV than an ICE vehicle. But unlike 400V EVs, higher voltage systems don&#8217;t require thick copper cables. That will not only help manufacturers reduce the cost of cabling but also ease up the global copper supply chain. Because EV batteries and heavy investments in EV charging infrastructure have already been causing problems for the copper industry, thinner cables will help in the near future.
Here are some disadvantages of choosing 800V electrical system over a regular 400V architecture:
&#8211; Higher cost of electrical insulation and clearance
&#8211; Higher voltage battery packs tend to perform less reliable than 400V systems, because they contain larger number of series connections. The impact of single cell failure in a pack like this would be much higher than the 400V batteries with more parallel cells.
&#8211; Lower voltage battery packs are more energy-dense than the similiarly designed 800V batteries, which is the result of all the additional electrical clearance requirements around high voltage systems and the much larger BMS.
