🔋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.
🚗In the performance version of the car, a dual-motor powertrain capable of producing 517 horsepower and 700 Nm of torque is used, achieving a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.9 seconds.

Zeekr

⚡ Chinese ZEEKR极氪 announced a major update to its first car, the 001, by replacing over 2,000 components.
🔋 The 2024 Zeekr 001, available with 95 and 100 kWh battery options, now features an 800V architecture. This not only boosts charging speeds up to 350 kW but also significantly enhances the vehicle’s efficiency.
🟢 Transitioning to the new-generation thermal management system called PTM 2.0 along with the battery, the 4.9-meter electric crossover can operate efficiently in both high and low temperatures.
💨 The new 001 offers a single-motor option producing 310 kW (422 HP) and a dual-motor option capable of generating 560 kW (762 HP). Hence, it’s expected to have a starting price around $40,000.
🚗 Equipped with LiDAR sensor-based autonomous driving mode, a new infotainment system powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 chipset, and numerous interior design changes, the exact price of the 001 will be revealed upon its release on February 27th.

#Audi has introduced its first car developed on the all-electric PPE platform, the Q6 e-tron.
The Q6 e-tron, which is priced 10% cheaper than its sibling model, the Porsche Macan EV, developed on the same platform, stands out with both more compact and lightweight electric motors and a large prismatic cell-based massive battery.

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.

Lucid

🟢American electric vehicle startup Lucid Motors announced that it has developed an SUV to rival the #Tesla Model Y, after the luxury sedan Air and SUV Gravity.
🚙The project has been working on for 18 months. It is expected to be completed next year and the &#8216;relatively&#8217; cheap model worth $50,000 dollars will come to light in the second half of 2025.
🏭 Lucid expansion plan has been approved to increase its factory in Arizona by 5 times. The company also produces in Saudi Arabia. The company, of which the Saudi Wealth Fund is the largest investor, states that it will not be a luxury vehicle-focused brand and plans to increase its sales volume with mainstream models.

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.

In addition, with a second statement made a few days ago, it was announced that Mercedes will continue to contribute to Aston Martin in terms of engine and electric vehicle technologies, although it will not increase its 9% share.

Exciting Partnership from Aston Martin and Lucid Motors

Saudi Arabia has chosen to enter the EV market by launching its own brand with Foxconn after investing substantially in Lucid.  Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman seeks to diversify the country&#8217;s economy to lessen its dependency on the oil sector.
The kingdom&#8217;s sovereign wealth fund announced this week that it would establish the Ceer electric car brand together with Foxconn of Taiwan. It will create EVs in Saudi Arabia for the first time ever.  It also designs, manufactures, and markets various vehicles for customers in the nation and the MENA area, including sedans and sports utility vehicles.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-26373 size-large" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Ekran-Resmi-2022-11-08-22.58.00-854x1024.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="899" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Ekran-Resmi-2022-11-08-22.58.00-854x1024.jpg 854w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Ekran-Resmi-2022-11-08-22.58.00-250x300.jpg 250w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Ekran-Resmi-2022-11-08-22.58.00-768x921.jpg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Ekran-Resmi-2022-11-08-22.58.00.jpg 1186w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
Interestingly, Saudi Arabia&#8217;s EV brand will license component technology from BMW through a joint venture with Foxconn. The future &#8220;infotainment, connection, and self-driving technology&#8221; of EVs be under Foxconn&#8217;s responsibility in the meantime. However, it is unclear at this time if the Taiwanese corporation would contribute its own funds to the joint venture.
<h2>Foxconn to Design Electrical Architecture</h2>
Foxconn will be responsible for the electrical design of the cars. Resulting in a consequence, there should be &#8220;a spectrum of goods that will pioneer in the fields of entertainment, connection, and self-driving technology.&#8221; Despite chairman Young Liu claims Foxconn and Ceer seek to make EVs widely available. Unfortunately, there is no information available on the market placement of Ceer EVs.
