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.

Advanced Summon Feature by Tesla!

🟢Chinese automobile manufacturers are introducing &#8216;auto-valet&#8217; solutions one after another. After Huawei, BYD announced that it will offer automatic parking space finding and car calling features in closed parking lots, thanks to this driving mode.
🚗Thanks to the auto-vale feature, the vehicle you left at the entrance of the shopping mall enters the parking lot on its own, searches for parking spaces on different floors, and comes back to you when you give instructions through the application.
🔋We have seen the same driving mode before in Huawei&#8217;s Luxeed S7 model. Although it is limited to some cities in China for now, it is expected to spread throughout the country soon.
💰BYD works with leading hardware and software manufacturers on smart driving systems such as NVIDIA, Momenta, and Horizon Robotics. The company has started to make serious progress on the autopilot side, where it has been lagging behind its competitors for the last few years. We will see such features become standard in many of the new-generation BYDs.

Toyota

For the US market, Toyota has unveiled the brand-new fifth-generation Prius hybrid. Although Toyota will indeed sell the brand-new Prius as the Prime PHEV in Europe, it will be available in the US in both plug-in and non-plug-in models, with the latter now offering AWD for the first time.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-27351 size-large" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-2-1024x768.jpeg" alt="" width="750" height="563" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-2-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-2-300x225.jpeg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-2-768x576.jpeg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-2-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-2-1568x1176.jpeg 1568w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-2.jpeg 1707w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
Both models receive significantly improved specifications. Toyota combined a 2-liter four-cylinder fuel engine with an electric motor in the Prius Prime plug-in hybrid model to produce much more power than the previous model. This is partially due to the ICE&#8217;s increased displacement, but the electric motor is also unquestionably more potent than before.
Toyota claims that the plug-in Prius accelerates from zero to sixty in only 6.6 seconds, which is a significant improvement over previously. It appears that performance was a consideration for the engineers when they created this powerplant, which should increase driver satisfaction.
<h2>Toyota Prime Model More Sportier</h2>
The 2023 Prius LE will include six USB-C ports, a 17-inch alloy wheel, and an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system. It has also a blind-spot monitor and a rear cross-traffic warning. The XLE grade includes 19-inch alloy wheels, a power driver&#8217;s seat, heated front seats, wireless device charging, a smart key system, and front and rear parking assist with automated braking, which is standard on the LE.

Toyota&#8217;s interior design
A 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen, a fixed glass roof, and a digital key system are all available options for the XLE. The bigger entertainment system, according to Toyota, was created by a team in Texas. It has over-the-air upgrades as well as a number of cloud-based navigational tools. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are utilizable wirelessly, and a new wifi hotspot feature is available.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-27353 size-large" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-3-1024x768.jpeg" alt="" width="750" height="563" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-3-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-3-300x225.jpeg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-3-768x576.jpeg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-3-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-3-1568x1176.jpeg 1568w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Toyota-Prius-Prime-3.jpeg 1707w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
Although Toyota does not mention it in the US press release, the battery pack size has increased as well. For the European version, it has gone from the previous 8.8 kWh to 13.6 kW, which is a 50% increase. This should result in a proportionately longer driving range than the existing models, which is EPA classified for 25 miles.

Volvo

Pickup trucks are now symbols of wealth and status. It&#8217;s hardly surprising that fully electric truck vehicles such as the <a href="https://www.licarco.com/news/remote-parking-feature-coming-to-ford-f-150-lightning">Ford F-150 Lightning</a>, <a href="https://www.licarco.com/news/features-you-should-know-about-chevrolet-silverado-ev">Chevy Silverado EV</a>, as well as Ram 1500 EV are hitting the market now as the Electric vehicle Revolution is well underway in many nations around the world. However, it can be challenging for urban drivers to maneuver such full-size vehicles.

<h2>First Rivian, The Biggest Ford, And Now Geely</h2>
The first was Rivian, the biggest was Ford, and now China is following. Radar Auto is a new brand that Geely Auto is launching to compete in the emerging fully electric truck market. Today&#8217;s official presentation of the new brand, which focuses on the outdoors, included pictures of the RD6, its flagship electric vehicle.
Geely officials revealed that the corporation was seeking to benchmark Rivian as that of the new pickup standards. It offers an all-electric vehicle of its own at the time the new brand was unidentified. Additional EV products geared toward China&#8217;s luxury market are then released after this first electric truck.
We now have a look at Radar Auto&#8217;s first all-electric pickup, which is the brand&#8217;s actual moniker.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-16586 size-full" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/geely-radar-5-660x371-2.jpeg" alt="" width="660" height="371" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/geely-radar-5-660x371-2.jpeg 660w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/geely-radar-5-660x371-2-300x169.jpeg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px" />
<h2>China&#8217;s First Electric Lifestyle Pickup Truck Is Called the Radar Auto RD6</h2>
The latest all-electric brand from the group, Radar Auto, has officially debuted.  With its own R&amp;D lab in Hangzhou and a fully functional EV manufacturing plant in Zibo, Shandong, Radar debuts as a standalone brand. However, the Radar branding is still a part of the larger Geely Holding Company, giving its staff access to all EV vehicle technology and subsystems, including those of Geely&#8217;s Sustainable Experience Architecture (SEA).
The RD6, an all-electric pickup created with the assistance of British design guru as well as Geely Auto EVP of design Peter Horbury, marks Radar&#8217;s debut. He expressed the following ideas about the new company and its prospects after the RD6.
All we really know about the RD6 as of this point is that it&#8217;ll be available with single and dual motor variants, will feature a frunk, plugs in the rear bed, and will provide a considerable amount of cargo capacity thanks to the SEA platform.
Radar Auto is now developing a communal lifestyle sub-brand to link EV customers with one another, other companies, and the great outdoors, similar to the outdoor-focused Rivian.
The RD6 EV pickup will start manufacturing and delivery in China in Q4 2022, according to Geely. There is no information yet on the kind of EV vehicle. It will replace the RD6 or the release date of the electric ATV.
