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.

Hyundai

⚡A cheap electric vehicle with 800V architecture is to come from Hyundai Motor Company (현대자동차)
🟢Hyundai carries out a successful electric vehicle transformation strategy. The company is ready to compete with the Renault 5 and Volkswagen ID.2 with a cheaper model than the Ioniq 5.
🔋Even though it was developed as a cheap model with a price target of 20,000 €, &#8216;IONIQ 2&#8217; will not give up on the 800V battery and will prefer LFP cells, just like its Chinese competitors.

🚗It is known that the new model will be produced on Hyundai-Kia&#8217;s IMA (Integrated Modular Architecture) platform. The vehicle will target the European market. It seems difficult to put it on sale before 2025.
💰The South Korean manufacturer is a few steps above its European competitors in terms of developing an electric vehicle platform. The company will gain a great advantage in the competition with the transition to the second-generation platform. The fact that it can offer an 800V battery and charging facility at this price level is enough to summarize the situation alone.

800V Electric Vehicle Is To Come From Hyundai | IONIQ 2

Volkswagen

Volkswagen, the all-electric ID.2 and compact SUV ID, to be positioned between the Polo and Golf. It takes great effort to bring 2all models to the market. 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

Volkswagen made a mess with the first steps of its electrification plan. Herbert Diess, former VW CEO paid the price with his job last year. Now there is a new man in charge, who happens to admire the German carmaker&#8217;s popular model series. After revamping the EV software project, Volkswagen&#8217;s new boss Oliver Blume now officially confirmed that his firm&#8217;s global models, such as Tiguan, will get an all-electric variant.
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz attended a works council meeting yesterday at Volkswagen&#8217;s headquarters in Wolfsburg. The exciting part is VW&#8217;s announcement regarding the electric Tiguan.
A spokesperson confirmed the Tiguan EV, which will probably be called ID. Tiguan, will enter production at the Wolfsburg factory in 2026. It will most likely be an ID.4 replacement. So, we expect a similarly sized and priced electric SUV.
The new Tiguan will be based on the German automaker&#8217;s recently updated EV-dedicated platform called MEB-Plus. This new modular architecture will be able to work with low-cost <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.licarco.com/news/lithium-ion-battery-cell-types-lfp-nmc-cells-explained" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LFP batteries</a>. Thanks to new battery options, Volkswagen will not only make cheaper EVs but also build models with more than 700 kilometers of range. ID. Tiguan could offer that much range and also support 200-kW DC charging, according to rumors.
<h2>Fully Electric Golf is Coming Back</h2>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-2818" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/volkswagen-id-3-energy-consumption-21-1024x683.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="500" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/volkswagen-id-3-energy-consumption-21-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/volkswagen-id-3-energy-consumption-21-300x200.jpg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/volkswagen-id-3-energy-consumption-21-768x512.jpg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/volkswagen-id-3-energy-consumption-21-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/volkswagen-id-3-energy-consumption-21-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/volkswagen-id-3-energy-consumption-21-1568x1045.jpg 1568w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
The second good news is about electric Golf. It originally entered the market in 2014, then six years later discontinued after the ID.3&#8217;s highly-anticipated launch. VW&#8217;s Oliver Blume rumoredly made the product team ditch ID.2 plans for a new Golf EV. Now it is hopefully back in the game with a new name: ID. Golf.
Blume acknowledges that Golf is an icon and it should be brought into the electric age. For the purpose of doing that, the VW team has completely redesigned the ID.2. It will be based on the same platform as the electric Tiguan, which is called MEB-Plus. 
Rumors suggest that the first concept named as ID. Life will debut this March. The production of the next-gen e-Golf will hopefully start in 2025. After launching ID. Tiguan and ID. Golf, the next step of Volkswagen&#8217;s electrification plan is to build its flagship EV codenamed Trinity. Customers will have to wait for a couple of more years for Germany&#8217;s so-called &#8216;Tesla killer&#8217;.
