BYD Seal U is a rebadged version of the Chinese EV maker&#8217;s &#8216;<a href="https://www.licarco.com/2023-byd-song-plus-ev">Song Plus</a>&#8216; model. It&#8217;s defined as a D-segment sports utility vehicle with its 4,785 millimeters long body. There are two battery options available for purchase; standard range (420-km WLTP) with a 71.8-kWh LFP battery and long range (500-km WLTP) with a larger 87-kWh pack. XXXXX 
The Seal U is the sixth vehicle (first five vehicles are Tang, Han, Atto 3, Seal, and Dolphin) that BYD exports to European countries. Even though BYD describes Seal U as a D-SUV, it&#8217;s a direct rival to Volkswagen&#8217;s ID.4, Skoda&#8217;s Enyaq iV, Renault&#8217;s Megane E-Tech, and other electric C-segment SUVs. Seal U&#8217;s biggest advantage is the more capable infotainment system with 4G/5G connection, DiLink operating system, and third-pary app support. 
Chinese automaker will release more details regarding Seal U at IAA Mobility in September. Seal U deliveries will begin in Q4 2023.

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.

Volkswagen

🔋Volkswagen’s electric vehicle sales are below expectations. The company plans to switch to an agency model instead of a dealership and sell these models directly itself.
🟢This transformation will strengthen the price competitiveness of the German automotive giant. It will be accelerated by Thomas Owsianski, who has been appointed as senior manager responsible for sales in Europe.
🔌Apart from Volkswagen, it is known that Skoda and Audi within the group are also working on the transition to the agency model. Increasing electric vehicle investments and intensifying price competition with Chinese manufacturers and Tesla will also trigger the transformation of dealers into agencies.

However, on the one hand, it does not neglect to force the lower segments. An ID to replace e-Up!, according to a recent statement to Autocar by company CFO Arno Antlitz. 1 project is still ongoing.
The German firm started construction on the MEB Entry platform and Valencia battery facility in Spain, which will help it achieve its first objective of lowering the starting price of its electric vehicles to €25,000. In 2025, buyers will encounter automobiles from this level from several brands within the group, including VW, Cupra, and Skoda. However, entering lower price ranges is important to compete with China.
Volkswagen&#8217;s most significant goal in this area is that using the cells it has created, it will be able to cut the price of batteries by up to 50% in the years to come. The 25,000 euro objective will also be significantly impacted by the price decline in battery components.
It is known that the entry-level battery at the moment is an LFP cathode battery with a 38 kWh capacity. The largest battery choice will likely be this one, which has a range of more than 320 kilometers. It will also likely be the ID. 1 battery for urban use. The car is expected to be introduced by 2028 and cost less than 20,000 euros.

Volkswagen ID. 1  To Come With 20,000 Euro Price

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.

Fully-electric Skoda Octavia is officially in development

Ssangyong

SsangYong, a South Korean 4&#215;4 manufacturer, just unveiled an all-new EV named the Torres. It claims will arrive in Europe in 2023 as a BEV. This EV is codenamed U100 internally. It will fill the space in the lineup between both the Korando and the Rexton, the brand&#8217;s second smallest and supreme vehicles, accordingly.
It is likely to have a somewhat higher off-road focus than just the Czech version, as well as virtually all other vehicles in the class. SsangYong is similar to Land Rover because it takes pleasure in knowing that all of those vehicles are built to be capable off-road. However, they are just not as properly equipped as the British brand&#8217;s vehicles.
<h2>Roll Back The Years</h2>

interior design
According to the footage, the Torres will have a front storage box, similar to the Land Rover Defender, as well as side steps, but they are likely to be optional extras. According to Ssangyong, the new style is inspired by its &#8220;unique design background,&#8221; with several pointers to the Musso, a British-designed, Mercedes-Benz-engineered SUV from the 1990s.
Inside the car, there&#8217;s a &#8216;floating&#8217; infotainment screen in the center of the dashboard. And a second screen just below it for managing the internal temperatures, and driving mode indicator. Additionally parking/reversing aid proximity sensors, and other features. Also exhibited is a sleek digital instrument panel.
<h2>Price Yet To Be Determined</h2>
SsangYong Torres, whose official stats will be released soon. It is expected to be quite competitive in its pricing. The vehicle will cost $20,900 in South Korea when it goes on sale. The cost of the most expensive bundles reaches $24,000.

Volkswagen lately announced plans to expand the MEB ( German: Modularer E-Antriebs-Baukasten; English: modular electric-drive toolkit) platform&#8217;s reachable range to 700 km (435 miles). This is likely to have an effect on future products that have yet to be released, but it may also expand the range of existing models, either as a self-contained upgrade or as part of a future facelift for the <a href="https://www.licarco.com/volkswagen-id-3-pro-performance/">ID.3</a>, <a href="https://www.licarco.com/volkswagen-id-4-pro-s-awd/">ID.4</a>, and <a href="https://www.licarco.com/volkswagen-id-5-gtx/">ID.5</a>, as well as the new <a href="https://www.licarco.com/volkswagen-id-buzz/">ID Buzz</a>.
The ID Life and Aero B are classified as models set to arrive in 2025 in a VW chart that shows its MEB-based EV portfolio. It is not thought low-cost ID Life, which is being redesigned for production, will be able to reach 435 miles on a single charge, but the relatively large Aero B, and also the forthcoming long-wheelbase model of the ID Buzz for the US market, will.
Bear in mind that the asserted coverage number is calculated using the <a href="https://www.licarco.com/news/ev-range-tests-explained-comparison-between-epa-ratings-wltp-nedc-and-cltc/">WLTP test cycle</a>, so the figure provided by the EPA will almost certainly be lower in the United States. 350 EPA miles appears to be a reasonable estimate.

The automaker also stated that the getting charged speed of the MEB-powered EV will be increased to more than 200 kW. The speediest charging speed for the MEB platform is presently 125 kW, so VW seeks to double that.
Performance enhancements are also planned, with VW aiming to reduce the sprint time to 100 km/h (62 mph) from its fastest all-wheel-drive MEB EV to less than 5.5 seconds. Currently, the <a href="https://www.licarco.com/volkswagen-id-5-gtx/">VW ID.5 GTX</a> with 299 horsepower accelerates to 60 mph in 6.2 seconds, so we expect the power output to be increased to 350 horsepower for a 0.7-second time reduction.
Volkswagen began development of the MEB platform, one of the first of its kind devoted solely to electric vehicles, in 2015. The first manufacturing vehicle it supported was the Volkswagen ID.3, and it is now used by 9 different models, including those from VW, Skoda, SEAT, and Audi.

Volkswagen Wants To Gear Up MEB EV Range To 435 Miles / 700 KM

Diesel car sales have been declining in Europe since the Dieselgate scandal in 2015. According to <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.ft.com/content/f1bdf1cf-8fc3-4b85-a4eb-7df716ebf0a9" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Financial Times</a>, sales of electric vehicles in the Old Continent overtook diesel cars for the first time last year. Chip shortage and other supply-chain problems affected legacy car makers&#8217; deliveries last year. But EV makers such as <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.licarco.com/news/tesla-produces-more-than-90-model-ys-per-hour-in-china/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tesla</a> didn&#8217;t suffer much from these issues.
European countries encourage pure electric vehicle sales by offering generous subsidies and implementing strict regulations that force automakers to sell more low-emission/or zero-emission vehicles.
Analysts estimated that the global EV sales to exceed 4 million in 2021. Western Europe is the second-biggest EV market after China. And December 2021 is the month that EV sales officially overtook diesel cars, according to the data gathered from 18 European markets.
That is a historical milestone for the European automotive industry, as diesel cars were the most popular powertrain option a few years back. Electrification has been rising steadily, and automakers keep increasing their EV development budget every month! European companies will eventually stop their combustion-engine vehicle R&amp;D in the next few years. 
<h2>Volkswagen sold the most electric vehicles in Europe</h2>

Electric vehicle sales figures of every Volkswagen Group brands:
<ul>
<li>Volkswagen: 263,200</li>
<li>Audi: 81,900</li>
<li>Skoda: 49,100</li>
<li>Porsche: 41,300 (Taycan+Taycan Cross Turismo)</li>
<li>Seat: 13,000</li>
<li>TOTAL: 452,900</li>
</ul>
Volkswagen Group brands sold more than 450K electric vehicles last year, which makes the German automaker the second-biggest EV producer in the world after Tesla (936,172). But VW is still the leading electric vehicle manufacturer in Europe, with more than 310,000 cars sold in 2021. <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.licarco.com/volkswagen-e-up" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Volkswagen e-Up</a> and <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.licarco.com/volkswagen-id-4-pro-s-awd" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ID.4</a> are the most popular models offered by the VW.
