🔋The 2024 BYD Han boasts a range of 506 km (CLTC), which extends up to 715 kilometers in the version with an 85.44 kWh battery. During today&#8217;s event, it was emphasized for the first time that the car features a silicon carbide chip inverter and an 800V architecture. However, the charging speed of the largest battery being limited to 155 kW indicates that the entire high-voltage system is not yet ready for 800V.

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.

Skoda

A press conference was conducted by Skoda today to unveil plans for a real EV invasion, with no less than six models arriving by 2026 to address diverse market niches. Leading the charge will be the Elroq, a &#8220;Compact&#8221; model that will be on sale in 2024. It is being created as the Karoq&#8217;s electric replacement and will be around 4.5 meters/177.1 inches long.
The year 2025 will be particularly busy for the Czech automaker since it plans to release the second-generation Enyaq &amp; Enyaq Coupe as well as an entry-level EV that SEAT will produce in Spain. The subcompact variant, which is now just known as the &#8220;Small,&#8221; will be around 4.1 meters/161.4 inches in length, have load space similar to the Scala, and have a starting price of about $26,700/€25,000.
The &#8220;Combi&#8221; expected in 2026 will likely be the most intriguing of the six. According to Skoda, the wagon will be roughly 4.7 meters/185 inches long and resemble Octavia. The &#8220;Space&#8221; will enter the lineup in the same year as a seven-seater SUV that is 4.9 meters/193 inches long and has &#8220;enormous interior space.&#8221; The 2022 Vision 7S concept has previously given a sneak peek of the three-row family car.
<h2>Skoda Hopes That Sales Of Evs Will Make Up 70% Of All Yearly Deliveries</h2>
By 2027, the Volkswagen Group will invest $6.1 billion/€5.6 billion in these six cars, which are planned to sport the company&#8217;s new &#8220;Modern Solid&#8221; design language. By the end of the decade, Skoda hopes that sales of EVs will make up 70% of all yearly deliveries. Meanwhile, &#8220;car sculptures&#8221; that showcase the expanded electric portfolio are giving us a rough indication of the new aesthetic approach across numerous categories.
Skoda states that the Kodiaq and the Superb liftback and wagon from the next generation will both go on sale this fall and have plug-in hybrid powertrains. The brand&#8217;s &#8220;most cutting-edge gasoline and diesel engines&#8221; will be used to power the ICE variants.

Skoda Plans No Fewer Than Six Electric Vehicles for 2026

Skoda officially confirms that its most popular vehicle will go electric. Development of the fully-electric Octavia is underway, according to CEO Klaus Zellmer&#8217;s statement published by <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/all-electric-octavia-being-developed-skoda" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Autocar</a>.
Related Article: <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.licarco.com/news/ev-sales-overtake-diesel-europe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Electric vehicle sales in Europe overtake diesel models for the first time</a>
Octavia is the best-selling model of the Czech firm and it will definitely be around after Europe&#8217;s ICE car sales ban in 2035. Skoda aims to generate 70 percent of its profit from fully-electric vehicles by 2030. Octavia will be one of those vehicles. But Zellmer didn&#8217;t rule out the possibility of another generation of ICE and plug-in hybrid Octavia models for some yet-to-be electrified markets.
<a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://licarco.com/skoda-enyaq-iv-80" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Enyaq iV</a> and <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://licarco.com/skoda-enyaq-coupe-rs-iv" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Enyaq Coupe iV</a> are the first next-gen EVs Skoda launched into the market. Over the next four years, the European carmaker will launch five more vehicles including the electric Octavia. C-segment sedan will use Volkswagen&#8217;s new electric-only platform called SSP, unlike MEB-based Enyaq iV and other VW Group EVs.
<h2>Electric Fabia and 7-seater Vision 7S are also coming soon</h2>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-22673" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/16_SKODA_Explore_More-1024x619.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="453" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/16_SKODA_Explore_More-1024x619.jpg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/16_SKODA_Explore_More-300x181.jpg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/16_SKODA_Explore_More-768x464.jpg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/16_SKODA_Explore_More-1536x928.jpg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/16_SKODA_Explore_More-2048x1238.jpg 2048w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/16_SKODA_Explore_More-1568x948.jpg 1568w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
Alongside the electric Octavia, the Czech firm will launch a mini-SUV, which is going to replace the current generation B-segment hatchback Fabia. There will also be a 7-seater large-size SUV that will be based on Skoda&#8217;s recently announced concept called Vision 7S. Skoda will cover almost every category of the EV market by releasing a crossover SUV and an urban EV by 2026. These vehicles will look more rugged, just like the automaker&#8217;s new design language shown in the form of an SUV concept earlier this month.
Specs-wise, there is nothing official to report right now. But it is clear that Skoda wants us to take a clue from the Vision 7S concept, which has an 89-kWh battery pack, 600+ kilometers of WLTP range, and 200 kW DC charging support. Electric Octavia will most likely be one of the most competitive C-sedan with this configuration.
