No comments

Friday, 17 March 2023

At the 2023 BMW annual meeting, the automaker announced more details about the new car to us, and at the same time showed us its first pure electric 5 Series model, which is scheduled to The BMW i5 launched in October.

Since the launch of the 5 Series in 1972, BMW has produced more than 10 million 5 Series vehicles in the more than 50 years. However, the BMW 5 Series will get a major upgrade this year: it will be fully electrified.

Oliver Zipse, Chairman of the Board of Management of BMW AG, said at the BMW Group Annual Meeting: "The pure electric BMW i4 M50 demonstrates how BMW perfectly combines dynamic performance and electric mobility. Models. Purely electric performance models from BMW M GmbH will also be included in the new BMW 5 Series Sedan lineup.

According to Zipse, the BMW i5 will be the brand's first electric 5 Series sedan and will give the brand a "truly unique selling point." According to reports, this i5 is scheduled to be launched in October, and will then "tour" around the world in 2024. BMW said it will continue to expand its pure electric lineup.

Production of the new car is expected to start in the next few months at the Dingolfing plant in southern Bravia, BMW's largest manufacturing plant in Europe. BMW said the i5 will maintain its traditional position between the company's midsize sedan, the 3 Series, and its luxury sedan, the 7 Series.

While no pricing was announced, BMW hinted that the brand would bring a "low-priced electric car" to its lineup, but several rivals, including Mercedes-Benz, have apparently dropped lower-priced models.

The all-new 5 Series is "more dynamic and comfortable than ever" with iDrive 8.5, the curved display on BMW's iX electric SUV, and new digital services.

In addition, BMW also confirmed that the i5 sedan will usher in a high-performance M version and a wagon version. Zipse said that after the electric BMW i450 became the best-selling BMW M model in 2022, the BMW 5 Series lineup will also welcome a pure electric M car, claiming: The pure electric BMW i4 M50 shows how BMW combines power performance and electronics. The perfect combination of mobility.

BMW said its orders remained ample due to its attractive lineup of all-electric vehicles, but remained cautious in 2023 amid rising interest rates and inflation.

Pickpook is not yet clear about the specifications of the i5 M (which can be called the i5 M60), but considering its size is close to the M5 fuel car, we expect it to bring the ultimate performance similar to the Tesla Model S Plaid.

BMW also confirmed that the new 5 Series will not just be petrol and electric. "The flexible powertrain architecture means that the new BMW 5 Series Sedan can offer pure electric and plug-in hybrid models, and adopt a 48V mild hybrid system."

In fact, BMW revealed a lot at its annual conference, especially about electric vehicles. BMW has confirmed that the upcoming redesigned X2 will be joined by an all-electric version called the iX2. The car will be unveiled later this year alongside the new iX1.

Porsche Plans Cayenne EV And Another High-performance Pure Electric SUV After Macan

No comments

Wednesday, 15 March 2023

After Porsche's initial public offering, it announced the launch of the Macan EV. Since then, it has increased its investment in the electrification strategy and even became the most valuable automaker in Europe. After today's earnings report, Porsche has more good news.

The German brand announced that it will achieve record profitability in 2022 and plans to launch two new electric models, a pure electric version of the Porsche Cayenne (Cayenne EV) and a higher positioning future model. Name the SUV.

Porsche's new high-end pure electric SUV is "positioned higher than the Cayenne", which may be a larger and more luxurious product than the Cayenne. It is expected to compete with the upcoming Land Rover electric car, electric Cadillac Escalade or Other large three-row electric SUVs compete.

Porsche's specific pure electric product plan is as follows:
  • The number of new Cayenne plug-in hybrid models to be launched will increase to three;
  • Macan pure electric version will be delivered in 2024;
  • The Porsche 718 will launch a pure electric version around 2025;
  • The pure electric version of the Cayenne will come after the pure electric version of the 718;
  • A new series of high-end pure electric SUVs has been added, based on the SSPSport platform.
AutoCar reported that Porsche's new SUV will be a large seven-seater SUV, code-named "K1". Similar to the Cayenne, its audience is those who like ultra-luxury, high-tech crossovers, and it is expected to go on sale in 2027, aiming to "provide strong performance and autonomous driving" capabilities.

It has been conceived and planned for three years and will be unlike any previous Porsche production car, with a length of more than 5 meters and a shape "part sedan, part crossover," said a source with knowledge of the early designs. Boundary car".

Porsche CEO Oliver Blume described the car, internally code-named K1, as a "very sporty interpretation of an SUV" that will take the form of a raised coupe "designed to bring powerful performance and autonomous driving, as well as a completely new experience in the car."

He added: "We have thus emphasized and strengthened our sporty luxury positioning. We have observed a growing profit pool in this segment, especially in China and the United States." "Perfect match for the Chinese market."

Due to the positioning and size of the Cayenne and this new SUV, we can expect its battery capacity to far exceed the Macan's 100kWh size.

In addition, for this type of luxury model, we think that both cars may bring optional dual-motor all-wheel drive models, and even a Turbo GT performance version with three or four motors. Of course, the pricing of the new car may also be eye-popping, and insiders also said that it will far exceed the current fuel version of the Cayenne.

Insiders say the K1 will have a distinctive silhouette, with a Porsche-standard ultra-short nose, a highly curved windshield and a curved roof that extends to the hatchback tailgate. It is also said that to give it suitable off-road capabilities, its ride height and ground clearance will also be tuned via a sophisticated air suspension with multiple settings.

The PPE platform will usher in its debut with the electric Macan in 2024, and it has been confirmed that the first generation model will use an 800V electrical system and bring a single motor (rear wheel drive) or dual motor configuration, with power up to 603bhp and 737lb ft.

The insider believes the K1 will feature a 920V electrical system, charge faster than the Macan and offer oil-cooled cooling for the motor, though its battery is still being kept under wraps, but should have a capacity of over 100kWh and a WLTP range of over 435 Miles.

Elsewhere, the K1 plans to feature all-new chassis technology, including an electronically controlled four-wheel steering system that provides a 5° steering angle to the rear wheels for increased maneuverability at low speeds in town and greater steering at high speeds. flexibility. The feature is said to work in conjunction with an electronic differential to provide a torque-vectoring effect between each rear wheel.

According to the news, the interior of the Porsche K1 will provide "a brand new experience with a focus on space". This will be thanks to the new key architecture of Porsche's SSP platform, such as the low cabin floor, ultra-thin battery pack, etc., and the rear footwell similar to the J1 platform used by the existing Taycan.

According to Porsche's goal, the car company will make its electric vehicle sales reach 80% by 2030. However, the release pace is slightly slower than that of Chinese car companies, American car companies and even the parent company Volkswagen.

More Information About Tesla Cybertruck Leaked, Cancels Front Middle Seat

No comments

Tuesday, 14 March 2023

Photos taken by attendees at the Investor Day event revealed some interesting details about the Cybertruck production beta, one of which is the vehicle's five-seat configuration, which will reportedly be the version that will eventually hit the market.

Early Tesla investor and EV advocate Matthew Donegan-Ryan tweeted after the Investor Day event that the Cybertruck pre-production model shown at the Investor Day event About 5 percent smaller than the prototype, Tesla eliminated the front middle seat, which the prototype had, in a six-seat configuration.

The early Tesla investor also pointed out that all Cybertruck models will only be available in five-seat configurations, information purportedly from Tesla employees.

If the early Tesla investor's information is accurate, it means the Cybertruck can carry fewer people than competing products, such as the Ford F-150 and Chevrolet Silverado, both of which offer six-seat configurations.

Therefore, I believe that some Tesla enthusiasts and some Cybertruck reservation users will be disappointed that the sixth seat of the pickup has been cancelled.

Still, other EV advocates have suggested that the Cybertruck's "missing" sixth seat may have something to do with the all-electric pickup's safety. In the original Cybertruck prototype, the front middle seat was facing the car's huge touchscreen.

Optimizing the safety of the front middle seat can be quite tricky, and air bag placement alone can be challenging. Of course, eliminating the middle seat in the front row can also reduce the production cost of Cybertruck, which is beneficial to Tesla.

Donegan Ryan also revealed some other information about Cybertruck, which is organized as follows:
  • The CyberTruck's hood can be opened like the Model X, but the front bumper/grille area cannot be opened like the F-150 Lightning.
  • CyberTruck will have two versions: one is a dual-motor version, and the other is what I call a performance version (don’t know the official name), which should be equipped with three motors.
  • All CyberTruck models will be equipped with rear-wheel steering.
  • CyberTruck will be equipped with the largest central control display in Tesla's history, 18.5 inches (17 inches for Model S and X), no instrument screen, no head-up display, and the second row of control screens are similar to Model S/X.
  • The CyberTruck steering wheel has round left and right sides and a flat top/bottom.
  • Air suspension is standard.
  • The CyberTryck's doors don't open automatically like the Model X's, and there are release buttons on the B- and C-pillars to open the doors.

Monday, 13 March 2023

Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann also revealed at the preview event of the car that its SUV model Urus will also launch a plug-in hybrid version in 2024.

It should be noted that Lamborghini already makes and sells a hybrid – the limited-edition Sián FKP 37, partially electrified with a supercapacitor. The Urus plug-in hybrid version, which is expected to be launched next year, will use a powertrain similar to the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid.

According to Pickpook, the car is currently equipped with a twin-turbocharged V8 engine and an electric motor with a combined output of 671 horsepower.

The Huracan successor, expected to debut in late 2024, will also be a plug-in hybrid. It's uncertain whether it will keep the naturally aspirated V10 or downsize to a V8, possibly in a twin-turbo configuration, while the Aventador successor, code-named LB744, keeps the V12, so the Huracan is expected to keep the V10 as well.

What comes after these two plug-in hybrids? Of course, Lamborghini's first pure electric car. Winkelmann revealed plans to launch its first all-electric model in 2028. He did not disclose specifics, but he has said in a previous interview with Auto Express that the car will have four seats, two doors and be more compact than a typical Lamborghini. The model has a higher ground clearance.

Lamborghini's second pure electric vehicle will be the Urus pure electric version, which will be officially unveiled around 2029.

No comments
Tesla’s latest red color is called Flame Red, and its text name is Ultra Red. It is an optional configuration in the domestic market, and the price is 25,000 yuan. The appearance of Flame Red has replaced the previous Chinese Red. The real car of this color scheme was unveiled.

At the gate of Tesla's Fremont factory, some netizens took pictures of the Model X with the new color scheme of Flame Red. From the picture, compared with Chinese red car paint, the color of Flame Red is deeper and more textured. It should be pointed out that, the two car paints are the same in process, and both use multi-coating technology.

It is understood that Tesla has launched three kinds of red car paints for different models in the global market. Among them, there is only one kind of red for Model 3 in the world, which is Chinese red; Model Y provides dark night cherry red car paint in the European market. Except for Europe, other markets are also Chinese red; and the latest Model S and X models use this flame red paint uniformly.

If you recently ordered Model S and X with Chinese Red paint, you can change the Chinese Red paint to Flame Red for free. Although the difference between the two is $500, the owner does not have to pay for it this time. This point is quite conscientious.

In addition to the flame red, the purchase of white, gray and blue Model S and X requires an additional price of 13,000 yuan. If you choose black, you don’t need to add money.
