The latest 2025 model of the Kia EV6 was unveiled on Thursday at the 2024 Los Angeles Auto Show, featuring a larger battery capacity and newly designed elements. It was also announced that the vehicle will be assembled in the United States.

The Kia EV6, which was first introduced in South Korea, has recently undergone a slight redesign. The updates include new headlights and minor adjustments to other parts of the vehicle, such as an updated design for the curved bar on the rear lights. Kia has implemented these updates to ensure the EV6 aligns better with the design language of its other vehicles.

Kia has opted to increase the size of their base battery pack from 68.0 kwh to a more robust 63.0 kwh. Additionally, they're introducing an even larger capacity 84.0-kwh battery, taking over from the previous maximum of 77.4 kwh offered since the debut of the EV6 in 2022. With this upgrade, Kia aims to achieve an EPA range of 319 miles on the expanded battery when used in the single-motor rear-wheel-drive versions of the Light Long Range, Wind, and GT-Line models. This expected range slightly surpasses the former top range of 303 EPA miles.

Models equipped with rear-wheel drive maintain their performance at 167 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque when fitted with the smaller battery option, and 225 horsepower with the same torque when upgraded to the larger battery. Additionally, a dual-motor all-wheel-drive option continues to be offered with the larger battery, producing 320 horsepower and 446 pound-feet of torque.

The dynamic EV6 GT model makes a comeback, this time boasting an increased horsepower of 601, a step up from its previous 576 hp, although its torque stays steady at 545 lb-ft. It also features a default GT mode that temporarily ramps up the power to 641 hp and the torque to 568 lb-ft.

Similar to its counterpart, the Hyundai Ioniq 5, the updated EV6 is now equipped with a North American Charging Standard (NACS) outlet. Additionally, the charging port has been relocated to the left rear fender across all variants except the GT model. Kia has not specified if it will offer adapters for the existing Combined Charging Standard (CCS) charging points, like Hyundai, nor has it provided details on the charging speed of the EV6 at Tesla Supercharger stations, which will be newly available to owners.

Kia has introduced a cutting-edge operating system designed for rapid processing, which supports updates via wireless technology and incorporates a digital key feature. This feature permits the use of a smartphone to unlock and start the car, eliminating the need for a traditional key fob. Moreover, all Kia models now come equipped with door handles that extend outward automatically.

Anticipation is high for the launch of the 2025 Kia EV6, which is slated for release in the initial months of 2025. The cost will be made public as the sale date approaches. Production is shifting to Kia's manufacturing facility in West Point, Georgia, where they began constructing the larger, three-row Kia EV9 this year. Due to its batteries not being produced domestically, the EV9 is currently eligible for only a $3,750 federal tax incentive, which is just half of the potential maximum. This same limitation might apply to the EV6.

To enhance your experience with a more personal touch

The police department in North Rhine-Westphalia acquires 400 Ford Tourneo Custom for 2024

The emergency lights can be controlled through the infotainment system…

North Rhine-Westphalia's Ministry of the Interior continues to show local pride. Despite Ford's plans to streamline operations in Cologne, Germany's most populous state remains loyal to its regional car manufacturer.

If I may share a story from the past, the 1990s saw a good number of Sierras, Scorpios, and Transits sporting the green and white livery of the highway patrol. But let's fast forward to the year 2024: the state's Ministry of the Interior has recently placed an order for 400 new Ford Tourneo Customs. These vehicles boast a 125 kW (170 horsepower) EcoBlue diesel engine, along with all-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic transmission.

The police force in North Rhine-Westphalia has selected the five-seater model of the Tourneo Custom, the passenger car edition of the Transit Custom, for official use. With up to 2,669 liters of cargo space, there's ample room for specialized police gear.

A feature referred to as the "Ford Pro Vehicle Integration System" facilitates the incorporation and management of police-specific features, such as the siren and horn. These functions can now be operated through the 13-inch infotainment system's touchscreen, eliminating the need for additional installation space. Ford claims this to be the first digital solution of its kind.

The connection is facilitated by an interface module that provides over 200 specialized and licensed conversion companies with direct access to the vehicle's onboard network. This is intended to significantly simplify the integration and operation of additional features.

Ford S-Max vehicles utilized by the police in North Rhine-Westphalia

"According to Claudia Vogt, Ford Pro's director for Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, the latest Ford Tourneo Custom vehicles provide emergency services with ample room, high comfort levels, advanced driving safety and assistance features, as well as an exceptionally dynamic performance that stands out in its category."

She cautions potential lawbreakers in advance: "The patrol officers won't be easily shaken off with this." Since 2019, the North Rhine-Westphalia police have accumulated over 1,200 Ford S-Max vehicles for patrolling purposes. However, this versatile sports van was discontinued almost two years ago, necessitating a replacement.

Working in law enforcement as a male or female officer is among the most demanding professions within our community. That's why we allocate substantial funds annually for appropriate and expert-level equipment. This naturally includes the right type of patrol car. As a mobile office, it must be practical, spacious, and meet the rigorous demands of the profession," stated Herbert Reul, the Interior Minister of North Rhine-Westphalia, who identifies the Ford Tourneo Custom as the versatile vehicle that possesses these essential capabilities.

Further details on police operational vehicles:

The envisioned appearance of the vehicles is depicted in our artist's impression at the top, featuring the distinctive police livery of North Rhine-Westphalia and the blue emergency lights mounted on the roof. Actual images are not yet available since Ford will only start delivering the initial Tourneo Custom models for police use in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Beginning in 2026, the entire fleet of 400 new vehicles discussed should be operational on the roads of North Rhine-Westphalia. However, the Ministry of the Interior of North Rhine-Westphalia is not relying solely on Ford, as Mercedes Vito and eVito will also be deployed in a multi-purpose role.

Taxi-Revolution: Die Mercedes E-Klasse kehrt mit INTAX-Umbau auf die Straße zurück

Published

on

By

To enhance the intimacy of the experience

The Mercedes E-Class is now available as a taxi

However, it's more of a semi-official situation thanks to INTAX

There was a significant outcry when Mercedes decided not to offer a taxi package for the new E-Class (Series 214) back in March 2022. This decision caused considerable discontent among taxi drivers who often prefer this brand. Now, there's been a change of direction, but it's not entirely from the factory. Mercedes provides certain preparations, and INTAX GmbH handles the full conversion.

INTAX incorporates a premium wrapping option in the light ivory taxi color into their taxi package for the E-Class, which clients can select if they choose. Following compatibility tests by Mercedes, where INTAX's taxi-specific vinyl was applied to the corner radars on the front and rear bumpers, it's now possible to provide full wrapping services for the E-Class, bumpers included. Generally, the application of this taxi vinyl does not interfere with the vehicle's operational or safety systems.

Photo Gallery: Mercedes E-Class (2024) in Taxi Configuration

The vehicle can now be fully wrapped in a light ivory color. Additional features include:• Pre-installation for taximeter and trip recorder• Pre-installation for radio communication (wiring harness without antenna/cable)• Pre-installation for taxi roof sign with brackets for HALE or Kienzle Argo signs (taxi-specific)• Mandatory taxi emergency alarm system (also required in rental cars)• Centralized interior lighting control• Detailed, color instruction manual for taxi/rental car operation

This package applies to all available engine types including gasoline, diesel, electric, and hybrid. In line with this, Mercedes has recently introduced the E 200 d to the German market, which features a 163 horsepower engine supplemented by a 20 horsepower electric boost. This may have been a nod to the taxi industry.

INTAX emphasizes that when ordering a vehicle from Mercedes, one should pay close attention to the following specifics: "It is imperative to note that the switch for the roof sign, which is not included in the packages but can be ordered separately through Code 047 or the PREMIUM package, is necessary for manual control. Without this switch, the roof sign can only be operated via the taximeter, a preference for many businesses."

Mercedes E-Class (2024) in its Taxi Variant

Customers have the option to request a pre-installation setup for standard taximeters or odometers by selecting Code 014 or the PREMIUM package. It is recommended to also order the compatible taxi roof sign (available under Code 04… or as part of the PREMIUM package) which easily attaches to the provided standard mount. There is a choice between a mount for HALE-branded signs or one for Kienzle signs. Each combination has been uniquely designed and rigorously tested for each vehicle model.

The trade journal Taxi Times highlights that only vehicles produced from December 2024 onwards are eligible for upgrades with the required chauffeur package and an additional control unit (order codes P92 and 965), which must be ordered directly from the factory. However, a panoramic glass roof (Code 413) should not be ordered, as it would prevent the installation of the roof sign.

The taxi bundle from INTAX is priced at 3,330 Euros with wrapping included, and 1,650 Euros without it. Currently, the Mercedes 200 d Sedan has a starting price of 58,905 Euros on the German configurator.

General Motors Divests Michigan Battery Plant Stake to LG, Bolsters Technical Partnership for Prismatic Cells

Published

on

By

General Motors has decided to sell its share in a battery plant in Michigan to LG Energy Solution. On Monday, both companies announced two significant updates.

In distinct statements, General Motors revealed its intention to divest its share in a Michigan-based battery plant joint venture to LG, meanwhile maintaining a collaborative technical relationship with the firm for the advancement of prismatic cell technology.

GM is awaiting the finalization of a deal set to conclude in early 2025. The company foresees recovering its financial outlay for the Lansing, Michigan facility, which is almost finished but pending equipment setup. Originally reported in 2022, the plant's construction was pegged at $2.5 billion, a cost shared equally between GM and LG.

General Motors stated that the deal would not affect its stake in the Ultium Cells LLC collaboration with LG, which includes the facility in question. Additionally, the company mentioned that, as of now, there are no intentions to alter the ownership structure of the Ultium Cells facilities located in Warren, Ohio, and Spring Hill, Tennessee.

In a development viewed as unrelated to GM's disinvestment in the Michigan battery facility, the pair of corporations will also broaden their ongoing technical collaboration to encompass prismatic cells for forthcoming electric vehicles from GM.

General Motors collaborates with LG Energy Solution to develop rectangular battery cells.

General Motors is currently utilizing pouch cell batteries for its electric vehicles, with production taking place at their Ultium Cells LLC facilities in both Ohio and Tennessee. However, the company has expressed plans to expand its range of battery sources by exploring various chemical compositions and designs.

General Motors has been exploring this matter for some time. In the year 2023, the company's CEO, Mary Barra, mentioned that GM is open to different types of battery-cell designs, considering the adoption of both prismatic and cylindrical cells, though there hasn't been a solid decision to implement any specific type.

The car manufacturer has recently suggested that using prismatic cells may offer benefits in terms of how batteries are arranged and could also streamline the production process by lessening the quantity of modules needed in a single battery pack. Additionally, GM highlighted that LG is already knowledgeable in the use of prismatic cells.

It was somewhat expected that General Motors would scale back following early difficulties in boosting their electric vehicle production. Earlier in the year, GM revised their initial goal of achieving the capacity to produce one million electric vehicles by 2025, with CEO Mary Barra noting that the market's growth wasn't aligning with forecasts. GM's production challenges may have played a role in this adjustment. However, a rise in electric vehicle deliveries starting in the second quarter suggested that the company was starting to overcome these hurdles.

California’s Telo Trucks Reveals Affordable MT1 Electric Pickup: Starting at $41,520 for 260 Miles Range

Published

on

By

The MT1 electric pickup by Telo Trucks, situated in California, has been officially announced on Tuesday to have a reduced starting price. This eco-friendly truck is priced at $41,520 and can travel up to 260 miles on a single charge.

In 2023, Telo introduced the MT1, announcing it would initially be available as an all-wheel-drive with two motors, priced at $49,999 prior to any discounts. However, the vehicle's online customization tool is now active and reveals the availability of a basic version featuring a single motor and rear-wheel drive, starting at $41,520.

Comparison between Telo pickup and Mini Cooper SE electric

The foundational model MT1 produces 300 horsepower, and Telo predicts its Standard battery will provide a travel distance of 260 miles. For an extra $3,980, customers can opt for the Long Range battery, which is expected to exceed 350 miles on a single charge. Additionally, there's a 500-horsepower, dual-motor option available for $4,769. This setup allows for the highest cargo load and towing limits of 1,600 pounds and 6,600 pounds, in that order.

Telo has stated that the distance the vehicle can travel on a single charge is consistent across different powertrain options. Although the company mentioned that the Long Range battery would boast a 106-kwh capacity, it hasn't disclosed the capacity for the Standard battery yet. Additionally, they've claimed that the MT1, equipped with the larger battery, can regain 210 miles of range in just 20 minutes through DC fast-charging.

Illustration of a Telo truck

Telo continues to take bookings at a rate of $152, corresponding to the vehicle's length in inches. This price point is identical to the previous Mini Cooper SE two-door hatchback. However, the MT1 offers seating for five adults and boasts a 60-inch cargo bed, surpassing the capacity of the Rivian R1T. According to Telo, the inclusion of a midgate facilitates the accommodation of lengthy items, such as a 9-foot surfboard or a 4×8 plywood sheet, right behind the front seats.

Telo has reportedly received 3,700 bookings and is targeting an early 2025 media debut. However, as demonstrated by Canoo and Alpha Motors, presenting a visually appealing compact electric truck and successfully manufacturing it are two distinct challenges.

Silent Thunder: The 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona EV Brings the V-8 Rumble to the Electric Era

Published

on

By

Audio test: The 2024 electric Dodge Charger Daytona mimics the rumble of a V-8 Hellcat

Ironically, if you want the classic V-8 engine roar in a fresh Dodge sports car, you'll have to choose the electric version.

The driving force behind today's electric cars is inherently quiet and seamless, a quality that has won over many fans of electric vehicles. On the other hand, Dodge has gradually eliminated the V-8 engines from its range of high-performance cars. However, the creators of the 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona electric vehicle, set to hit the market soon in its introductory Scat Pack version, are determined to appeal to classic car aficionados as well. They plan to do this by recreating the sensory experience of a V-8 engine.

During an engaging exchange at the LA auto show, Green Car Reports had the opportunity to speak with Kevin Hellman, the senior VP of product at Stellantis for Dodge. He shared insights into the highly-discussed Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust, revealing that this feature does more than mimic the iconic roar of muscle cars. It's designed to reintroduce a specific level of noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) to the vehicle, enhancing the sensory experience.

Hellman stated that the vibration from the Charger Daytona is palpable from behind the wheel, and the creators aimed to ensure that once the car is ignited, there's an unmistakable sensation of its power being activated.

Hellman rapidly initiated, accelerated, and ceased the engine operation right at the car exhibition space, a move that would have been prohibited if it were an actual V-8 engine, effectively showing us that it audibly matches expectations. However, to truly gauge the vibration from the driver's perspective and the overall driving sensation, we will need to hold on for roughly another week to share our initial driving feedback.

"He emphasized that the sensation in your seat indicates the vehicle is active," he explained, highlighting how the added vibrational feedback enhances the driving experience beyond what the artificial sound systems in some electric cars provide. "Frankly, when you're speeding and maneuvering on a racetrack, that intense physical sensation is excellent feedback."

2024 Model of the Dodge Charger Daytona

The Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust is designed to create additional noise and vibration for electric vehicles. It's supported by four specially designed elastomer isolator bushings, similar to those found in a traditional car's exhaust system. The system includes two unique, high-efficiency transducers with a broad range of sound frequencies. Hellman explained that these are made up of regular drivers paired with two passive radiators, which are essentially drivers minus the magnet. These "passivators," as Hellman casually calls them, are key to producing the deep, resonant roar associated with powerful muscle cars.

Hellman notes that the components used in the Fratzonic system are quite comparable to those found in a subwoofer enclosure. However, the configuration is unique due to a patent that covers the interaction of the passivators and speakers to produce audio within its specific size. The system's size is approximately 36 liters, which is equivalent to a 10-gallon fuel container or a modestly sized piece of carry-on luggage, with a total volume of just 1.3 cubic feet.

The majority, though not the entirety, of the noise control involves the vehicle's system engaging in dynamic sound regulation, which includes modifications via the audio system, according to Hellman. However, he noted that approximately 90% of the audible experience for the driver originates from the external apparatus located at the vehicle's rear.

2024 Model of the Dodge Charger Daytona

The Charger V-8's roar is the key feature, reaching a maximum of 126 dB

It's not only about the volume for the passengers in the electric vehicle. The goal for the designers was to match the volume of the previous Hellcat model, known for its ear-splitting 126 dB noise level. However, the crucial factor was capturing the correct pitch, particularly the deeper tones of the engine, according to Hellman. Achieving 126 dB with a high-pitched noise is relatively simple, but that's not the objective.

The team was determined that the electric vehicle should mimic the auditory experience of a Dodge V-8 engine. To achieve this, they began by collecting a wide array of sound samples from classic Hemi V-8s, 426 V-8s, contemporary Hemis, Hellcats, and even the Chrysler Turbine car from the 1960s. These sounds were then integrated into the final sound output of the EV. Following this, all involved parties were given the opportunity to assess each sound profile, focusing on their preferences for the startup, shutdown, acceleration, and overall operation sounds. Additionally, feedback was sought on whether the sounds authentically represented the essence of a Dodge vehicle.

The approach includes psychological elements and aims to be recognized as an authentic and motivational noise rather than a substandard copy. Consequently, Dodge dedicated time to thoroughly test the concept. "A considerable effort was made, and the collaborating agency developed various themes ranging from subtle to extreme muscle sounds, to outlandish sci-fi-esque tones. We evaluated these at our vehicle clinics and later presented them at SEMA," Hellman explained.

He described the outcome as a deep, rumbling sound with a touch of modernity. At the same time, the sound waves don't come to an end together, which adds a natural intricacy similar to the initial sound.

Upcoming 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona Model

The Daytona EV group chose not to embrace an ultra-modern design, yet numerous electric vehicles have taken that path. For example, the audio effects of the Ford Mustang Mach-E draw inspiration from iconic sci-fi movies of the 1980s like “Blade Runner” and the Batmobile known as the Tumbler. However, these sounds are exclusively experienced by the occupants within the car.

He elaborated, "While you're behind the wheel, you might recognize a certain resonance that eludes precise identification. This is due to its functioning at 38 Hz, a frequency nearly identical to the combustion sequence of a Hemi."

The significance of the car's position plays a role in this auditory challenge. All the sounds have been meticulously adjusted to mimic the authentic V-8 engine noise for the person behind the wheel, and they also seem quite accurate to bystanders, as evidenced during the sound test at the car exhibition.

The Fratzonic initiative tackled a complex challenge in acoustic-physics

The creation of sound for the Hellcat and the classic muscle cars before it took on an epic proportion. According to Hellman, the initial goal for Fratzonic was to produce unique noises unlike any other electric vehicle. However, the focus quickly shifted to replicating a more profound V-8 ambiance.

Incorporating a quick overview of language studies and the science of sound, it's essential to understand that producing vowels requires airflow, with each vowel corresponding to specific frequency ranges. Having briefly experienced the Fratzonic feature on a vehicle during idle and acceleration, I noticed that it's the replication of those deep, rumbling vowel tones typical of a V-8 at rest that really stands out.

Engineers specializing in Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) at Stellantis in Michigan, who are also responsible for fine-tuning the sound of a genuine V-8 muscle car exhaust, collaborated with a secret firm known for producing sound and visual effects in the film industry. Together, they developed six unique sound profiles. These profiles are programmed to alter in intensity and style, responding to various inputs received by the vehicle's system.

2024 Model of the Dodge Charger, named

Numerous factors impact the actual noise produced by a vehicle, such as its velocity, motor speed, throttle setting, weight burden, regeneration setting, and the selected driving mode.

According to Hellman, switching to a more dynamic driving setting typically results in an increase in both the intensity and loudness of the vehicle's noise. The standard setting is Auto, with Sport mode producing a somewhat higher sound, and Track and Drag modes reaching the highest volume levels.

You have the option to mute the sound entirely if it's not to your liking. Additionally, there's a Custom drive mode available that allows you to adjust and set varying sound levels for each mode according to your preference.

Hellman confirmed that the upcoming 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona EV will be equipped with a noise and vibration system across all models. He remained tight-lipped about the pricing, simply stating that the cost is considered as any standard vehicle part essential to the driving experience.

The unit operates on a specialized amplifier with a 600-watt capacity, and its power usage is on par with that of a premium sound system. The aerodynamic build of the Charger Daytona, especially with its front R-Wing configuration that channels air to enhance either efficiency or downforce, probably compensates for some of the energy it consumes.

In response to a question about the difficulties of ensuring the Fratzonic solution was resistant to elements such as puddles and road salt, Hellman quickly affirmed that there were indeed challenges, though he did not elaborate, simply stating, "Oh yeah!"

Questioning the Adaptability of Stellantis' Fratzonic System for Luxury Brands

Regarding the possibility of Stellantis adapting its Fratzonic sound technology for distinct vehicle brands such as Maserati or Ferrari, Hellman indicated that the time is not ripe. He acknowledged that while certain elements, such as the methodology, might be transferable to other models, it is not immediately scalable as it stands.

"Right now, it's completely tailored for Dodge, created specifically for this," he stressed.

Upcoming 2024 Model of the Dodge

However, Hellman, with his eight-year experience managing the Challenger and Charger models, perceives it as more than just a clever tactic to connect the old with the new. He believes that as the electric vehicle market evolves, this feature will provide a sense of recognition. “The auditory experience is crucial for Dodge and for the identity of muscle cars. It's an aspect we're committed to enhancing further,” explained Hellman.

"He described the uniqueness of their creation in both its appearance and audio quality, noting, "We've crafted an experience unlike any other out there. From what I've gathered, there's not been a single person who hasn't been impressed upon encountering it firsthand."

2026 BMW iX: A Half-Step to the Neue Klasse of Electric Vehicles

Published

on

By

The upcoming 2026 BMW iX will be a part of the new generation of electric vehicles known as the Neue Klasse. For those keeping an eye on electric vehicle developments, this term should ring a bell. Despite its name having a French ring to an English-speaking ear, it's BMW's way of categorizing their latest electric vehicle lineup. This new lineup will debut with the iX3 crossover in the coming months and will later include a version of the iconic 3-Series sedan.

In the latest advancement of electric vehicles, the updated 2026 BMW iX is set to partially bridge the gap to the next generation of EVs. First introduced in 2022, this electric SUV from BMW comes with notable upgrades to its battery technology, drive systems, and core components. However, details on these enhancements remain under wraps until the worldwide unveiling scheduled for the end of January.

During a short trip near BMW's manufacturing plant in Spartanburg, South Carolina, the latest iX model delivered a smoother ride and showcased an improved spectrum from its robust sport mode to the gentler comfort mode. The vehicle's exterior design has undergone modifications, merging the distinct eco-friendly look of the now-defunct i3 hatchback with the striking, perhaps audacious, design features of BMW’s crossover SUVs.

The vehicle was adorned with camouflage, and the inside dashboard and panels featured a slim carpeting similar to what one might see on a cargo floor. We only had a brief 15-minute opportunity to try it out, and BMW has kept much of the technical information under wraps. Below, we outline the confirmed facts, the rumors, and our predictions for this version of the iX.

The Spartanburg facility holds the title as the biggest BMW manufacturing plant globally. It produces the X3 and almost all of the larger-sized crossover SUVs for BMW's international distribution. However, production of the iX will remain at the Dingolfing Plant located in Lower Bavaria, Germany.

The upcoming 2026 iX is set to launch in the second quarter of 2025, offering a selection of three different models that signify varying tiers of performance, true to BMW's style.

Upgrades on the 2026 BMW iX's powertrain

The upcoming lineup of the BMW iX will feature all-wheel drive powered by two motors across all variants. However, reports from a Bimmerpost leak, as mentioned by various car news sources, indicate that the standard model will now be the iX xDrive45, replacing the previous xDrive40. Official EPA records suggest that the 2025 entry-level BMW iX, known as the xDrive40 and yet to hit the American market, comes equipped with a 71-kWh battery (usable capacity) and offers a maximum travel distance of 219 miles on a full charge as per EPA's evaluation.

Anticipate a bigger battery and extended driving distance as a standard feature of the 2026 iX xDrive45 model.

Speculation suggests that the current iX xDrive50 model will be upgraded to the iX xDrive60 by 2026, while the present M60 is anticipated to evolve into the M70 that same year. The forthcoming models are likely to boast a more substantial battery capacity compared to the current 105.2-kWh unit. However, it's believed that they will continue to utilize prismatic cells rather than adopting the cylindrical cells that are expected to be a feature of the upcoming Neue Klasse series of electric vehicles. This update is seen as an interim step, representing a 5.5 generation in BMW's electric vehicle battery and drive system technology, rather than a full leap to the sixth generation.

Vehicles from the Neue Klasse series will be equipped with an 800-volt system, whereas the iX model will continue to operate on a 400-volt system. However, it will see enhancements in efficiency to boost its charging speed, with the specifics yet to be disclosed. When using a DC fast-charging station with a peak output of 195 kW, the BMW iX slated for release in 2025 is expected to reach a charge level from 10% to 80% within a span of 40 minutes

Similar to the new generation models, the upcoming 2026 BMW iX is anticipated to employ silicon-based anodes in lieu of traditional graphite within its battery cells. This change is expected to enhance the battery's energy capacity and accelerate charging times. A higher energy capacity suggests the potential for an increased driving range, although this has not yet been officially verified by BMW. Official EPA certification regarding this aspect is not expected until sometime early next year.

BMW has made several enhancements to extend the driving distance of their vehicles, including the introduction of wheel bearings that have been optimized to reduce friction. Additionally, they have implemented more energy-efficient headlights. Furthermore, the introduction of new inverter technology has improved the energy delivery from the battery to the motor, providing a stronger power surge and ensuring a more compact and effective energy transfer.

The anticipated 2026 model of the BMW iX is expected to be 10% more efficient than its predecessor. The previous version, the 2025 iX xDrive50, boasts a range of 309 miles as per the EPA, when fitted with 20-inch wheels. With the projected improvement in efficiency, the upcoming 2026 xDrive60 model could see an increased range of up to 340 miles, particularly when paired with the most energy-saving wheels and tires designed for minimal rolling resistance.

The maximum distance for the 2025 M60 model is 285 miles, but the 2026 M70 model might reach approximately 310 to 315 miles, according to my rough estimate. Predicting the range for the xDrive45 is trickier as BMW has not disclosed the battery capacity.

Performance Expectations for the 2026 BMW iX

It's uncertain whether the upcoming M70 will surpass the current 2025 M60, which boasts 610 horsepower and 749 pound-feet of torque, along with a 0-60 mph sprint time of 3.6 seconds. Similarly, it remains to be seen if the iX xDrive60 will exceed the 2025 xDrive50's performance stats, which include 516 horsepower, 564 pound-feet of torque, and a 0-60 mph acceleration time of 4.4 seconds.

During my short test drive of the iX xDrive60, I noticed it had an impressive amount of power right from the start, with even the slightest pressure on the accelerator leading to quick spurts of speed. It was fast enough to make me smile without making any of my fellow riders uncomfortable. When switching to Eco mode, the acceleration became noticeably less responsive. I was informed that switching to Sport mode would essentially turn off the stability control, allowing for potential drifting, though I didn't have the chance or the right conditions to try this out. The B setting on the gear shift is designed for maximum energy recovery through braking, which can slow the car down significantly without even touching the brake pedal. The braking system itself, however, hasn't changed.

During my previous experience with the iX xDrive50 model in 2023, I noticed it had less than steady control and was quite heavy, making it stand out from BMW's electric lineup for not all the right reasons. However, BMW has been making strides to enhance these aspects throughout the iX series. My recent trial was with the iX xDrive60 equipped with a standard steel-spring suspension. This time around, BMW has refined the hydraulic dampers to provide a more serene driving experience at cruising speeds. Indeed, while driving at approximately 70 mph on state roads, the vehicle lived up to this expectation. Aside from the usual tire noise that's typical with electric vehicles, the interior of the car was impressively silent, despite the test model appearing to be in an incomplete prototype stage.

One criticism from our editor regarding the 2023 BMW iX centered on the insufficient steering feedback when in Sport mode. BMW has claimed to enhance the steering experience, offering a more distinct difference when switching between sport and comfort modes. However, I wasn't able to verify this due to limited testing space.

The M70, following in the footsteps of its predecessor the M60, is expected to feature a dual-axle air suspension system complemented by adjustable dampers. It seems that the extravagant iron butterfly grille, which is a rather ostentatious interpretation of the kidney grille similar to the one found on the i4 electric sedan, will be maintained. Additionally, it is rumored to include a self-repairing grille function that camouflages or diminishes the appearance of scratches.

This year introduces an M Sport package, in response to customer demand. The existing Sport package for the 2025 xDrive50 may have lacked sufficient M elements. This new package features blue brake calipers, while the M Sport Package Pro that comes with the M70 includes red calipers. This could potentially irritate those pretending to have a full M model.

Internally, the bundle includes upgraded M sport seats that feature enhanced lateral support and an extended seat base by almost two inches. While leather seating is still available as an add-on with the M Sport Package, it also provides a steering wheel encased in leather, M-designated pedals, and distinctive M emblems.

Each model comes equipped with an array of amenities such as cruise control that adjusts to traffic conditions up to speeds of 85 mph, ambient entry lighting, warming options for both the front seats and steering wheel, and an audio system from the renowned Harman Kardon brand.

Choices for the vehicle feature a panoramic glass top, doors that close on their own, and an updated version of BMW's iDrive interface that comes with a digital dashboard and a touch display with a size yet to be revealed. For driver assistance, there are features like a semi-autonomous driving mode that can handle lane switching and a system that allows for parking without being in the car.

The latest edition of BMW's electric vehicle, the iX slated for 2026, introduces fresh elements to its category. Its fate within the Neue Klasse framework remains to be seen, with more details expected towards the end of January.

Von Pixeln zur Performance: Der BMW M3 GTR aus Need for Speed Wird Realität zum 30-jährigen Jubiläum

To enhance a more individualized experience

The iconic BMW M3 GTR from Need for Speed Most Wanted is brought to life

To commemorate the Need for Speed series' anniversary, BMW is making the M3 GTR a reality

BMW M is marking the 30th anniversary of the Need for Speed series with a standout celebration: The famed BMW M3 GTR from Need for Speed: Most Wanted has been meticulously recreated by BMW M Motorsport and unveiled for the first time in the physical world.

Starting November 27, 2024, the vehicle recognized for its signature silver and blue colors will be on display at the BMW World in Munich. Its transition from the digital realm to the physical world is exciting not just for racing game aficionados, but also for car enthusiasts and historians who value the legacy of the original vehicle.

From the Virtual Track to the Open Road

The 2005 edition of Most Wanted's M3 GTR has firmly embedded itself in the hearts of gaming and popular culture enthusiasts. Known for its unique look, robust V8 engine, and iconic status as the game's primary vehicle, it has left an indelible mark on millions of players. Its design takes cues from the actual racing model of the BMW M3 GTR, crafted in 2001 specifically for competing in the American Le Mans Series (ALMS).

Back in the day, the GTR was powered by a P60B40 V8 engine, which delivered an impressive 450 horsepower while the car weighed a mere 1,100 kilograms. This race car was so dominant that it swept not just the drivers' championship but also the manufacturers' and teams' standings.

In order to comply with ALMS regulations at the time, BMW was required to manufacture a street version of the M3 GTR, which remains one of the most uncommon models in the history of BMW's M series to this day. With an estimated value exceeding 250,000 Euros, however, this version was prohibitively expensive for most, thereby enhancing its aura of mystery and exclusivity.

BMW Motorsport's meticulous execution in the recreation

The replica of the Need for Speed M3 GTR has been meticulously crafted to match the in-game models. BMW M Motorsport's team has outfitted the car with accurate details, including the iconic stripes and the bold body kit. According to BMW, the car was constructed using an authentic BMW M3 GTR as its foundation, ensuring true-to-life representation. This demonstrates the increasingly seamless integration between the virtual and real automotive realms.

John Stanley, the lead creative mind behind "Need for Speed: Unbound," highlighted the significance of the M3 GTR to the franchise, stating, "The M3 GTR model stands out as one of the most iconic vehicles in Need for Speed's legacy. That's why we aimed to do something extraordinary for the 30th anniversary."

Simultaneously with the unveiling of the physical car, the M3 GTR will make its appearance in the latest edition of "Need for Speed: Unbound" through the "Vol 9: Prepare for the Lockdown" update. This enhancement not only reintroduces the iconic M3 GTR into the gaming realm but also marks a series-first by incorporating a motorcycle – the BMW S 1000 RR. Gamers on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC will also see their choice of vehicles grow with the addition of the Honda Integra Type R and the Subaru Impreza WRX STI in this update.

Increased M Performance

Enthusiasts will have the exclusive chance to get up close with the BMW M3 GTR at the BMW World in Munich from November 27 to January 6. Despite the fact that the M3 GTR is not intended for sale, BMW intends to showcase the car at other events and exhibitions. Therefore, fans will have the opportunity to see this legendary vehicle in person and perhaps even experience the distinctive sound of its V8 engine firsthand.

Von Barcelona nach Hollywood: 25 Jahre Seat Leon – Die Erfolgsgeschichte des spanischen Golf

Published

To enhance a more individual experience

The Seat Leon marks its quarter-century milestone

This Spanish hatchback hits a major success with over 2.5 million units sold

In 2021, the Seat Leon commemorates a significant 25-year presence in the market since its debut in 1999, establishing itself as a key player in the compact car category. The Leon has consistently been conceived, designed, and manufactured entirely in Barcelona, reflecting a strong commitment to its Spanish origins.

The first iteration of the Seat Leon, designated as Typ 1M1, was built on the Volkswagen Golf IV platform and designed by the famed Giorgetto Giugiaro. This model signaled Seat's re-entry into the compact car segment, a market it hadn't been active in since the Fiat-licensed Ronda ceased production in 1986. Equipped with options like all-wheel drive, a six-speed transmission, and engines capable of up to 180 horsepower, the Leon established new benchmarks for performance and technological advancements in its class.

Moreover, the sports model "Cupra," which derives its name from "Cup Racer" and was originally based on the racing version of the Leon, essentially laid the foundation for the Spanish brand's later line of sports vehicles. With as much as 224 horsepower in the Cupra R version, it swiftly attained a sort of cult following.

In 2005, the second iteration of the Seat Leon, known as the Leon II (Type 1P), made its debut. This new version stood out with a more daring and sleek design courtesy of Walter de Silva. A notable design feature was the concealed rear door handles, giving the car the appearance of a coupe.

This generation brought together an athletic aesthetic with high-performance engines, which played a significant role in the model's popularity. At the same time, there was an emphasis on efficiency, leading to an overhaul of the engine line-up. Moreover, the robust Cupra version made an appearance, offering up to 310 horsepower, leaving nothing to be desired for enthusiasts of powerful hatchbacks.

The third generation of the Seat Leon, launched in 2012, marked a significant leap forward in its development. It was the first compact car to feature full LED lighting and came equipped with advanced infotainment and driver assistance systems.

This iteration became the top-selling version in the Seat Leon's history, surpassing the milestone of one million units delivered. The technical foundation was provided by Volkswagen's Modular Transverse Matrix, which was also the platform for the Golf VII. For the first time, a station wagon version was introduced, known as the ST, along with a three-door variant called the SC.

The Cupra had already become a stable fixture in the lineup, initially offering 300 horsepower, before the introduction of the Cupra R, which upped the power to 310 horsepower. Interestingly, a special version, the Leon Cupra ST with a whopping 370 horsepower, was released in Switzerland. However, later models saw a reduction in power, returning to 290 horsepower. At the more modest end of the spectrum, there was a three-cylinder engine with one-liter displacement, producing a modest 86 horsepower.

The fourth and current iteration of the Seat Leon, known as the KL type, represents the most technologically advanced version to date. Launched in 2020, it's available with five different powertrain options, including Seat's inaugural plug-in hybrid, the e-Hybrid. This model stands out as the brand's first fully connected car, featuring a host of contemporary safety features and lighting systems, such as cutting-edge Matrix LED headlights.

Approximately 1.1 million euros were invested in the creation of this car, which was available both as a hatchback and a station wagon. Celebrating its 25th anniversary, a fresh update was unveiled featuring a 1.5-liter electric hybrid engine with a 133 km electric range and a quick charge capability of just 26 minutes. The Seat brand no longer offered the Cupra version; instead, the newly established Cupra brand took over, equipping the Leon with a robust engine of up to 333 horsepower.

Leon's accomplishments across sports, cinema, and professional spheres are evident through a multitude of honors. It has clinched the "Car of the Year" title in Spain twice. Notably, its achievements in the World Touring Car Championship stand out: in 2008 and 2009, it secured the championship titles, becoming the pioneering manufacturer to win a FIA World Championship with a diesel engine.

Photo Gallery: Celebrating a Quarter-Century of the Seat Leon

The Seat Leon has not only made its mark through its technical prowess and athletic achievements but has also carved a niche for itself in popular culture. This iconic car has graced the screen in movies such as "3 Days to Kill" and "Men in Black: International," and has appeared in TV shows like "Dark" and "Sherlock."

Additionally, unique editions such as the SEAT Leon Trencadís, designed as a tribute to architect Antonio Gaudí, and the SEAT Leon Cristobal, a concept vehicle featuring a multitude of safety features, have been created. From a manufacturing standpoint, the achievement is remarkable: more than 2.5 million units have been produced in Barcelona to date.

Increased Compactness:

The Seat Leon celebrates its 25th anniversary, but it seems unlikely that it will see many more, given the uncertain prospects of the VW subsidiary. It would be a real pity to see it go, as the Leon has carved out a niche for itself as the sporty sibling to the Golf. However, there's a strong possibility that it could survive under the Cupra Leon badge, even if the Seat brand shifts its focus to different business areas.

Vom spanischen Underdog zum Kultstatus: 25 Jahre Seat Leon im Rückspiegel

To enhance the intimacy of your experience

The Seat Leon, Spain's answer to the Volkswagen Golf, marks its 25th anniversary this year. A hit for the auto brand, it has seen over 2.5 million cars produced since its 1999 debut. This compact car has risen to prominence in its category and proudly boasts a heritage firmly rooted in Barcelona, where it has been designed, developed, and manufactured from the outset, showcasing a strong commitment to its Spanish origins.

The first iteration of the Seat Leon, designated the 1M1 and built on the VW Golf IV platform, was penned by the illustrious designer Giorgetto Giugiaro. This model marked Seat's re-entry into the compact car market, a segment it had previously exited in 1986 with the Fiat-licensed Ronda. Equipped with optional four-wheel drive, a six-speed transmission, and engines capable of up to 180 horsepower, the Leon raised the bar for performance and technological advancements in its class.

Moreover, the "Cupra" sports model – a name derived from "Cup Racer," which was based on the racing version of the Leon – essentially laid the foundation for what would become the Spanish brand's later sports line. With up to 224 horsepower as the Cupra R, it swiftly achieved a sort of cult following.

In 2005, the Seat Leon launched its second iteration, known as the Leon II (Type 1P). This new version boasted a more daring and streamlined look, crafted by designer Walter de Silva. A distinctive feature of this generation was the concealed rear door handles, which gave the car the appearance of a coupe.

This generation merged athletic aesthetics with high-performance engines, which played a significant role in the model's success. At the same time, there was an emphasis on efficiency with an updated range of engines. Additionally, there was the introduction of a potent Cupra version that, with up to 310 horsepower, fully satisfied the desires of hot hatch enthusiasts.

The third generation of the Seat Leon, introduced in 2012, marked a significant leap forward in its development. It was the first compact car to incorporate full LED lighting and came equipped with cutting-edge infotainment and driver assistance systems.

This iteration of the Seat Leon became the brand's top-selling model ever, surpassing one million units delivered.

The Cupra had already established itself as a mainstay in the lineup, initially delivering 300 horsepower, before the introduction of the Cupra R, which upped the ante to 310 horsepower. Interestingly, it was in Switzerland that a Leon Cupra ST version was available, boasting a formidable 370 horsepower. However, the power was later dialed back to a more modest 290 horsepower. At the lower end of the spectrum was the three-cylinder engine with a one-liter capacity, offering a modest 86 horsepower.

The current, fourth generation of the Seat Leon, known as the Leon IV (Type KL), is the brand's most technologically advanced model to date. Released in 2020, it is available with five different powertrain options, including Seat's inaugural plug-in hybrid variant, the e-Hybrid. This iteration stands as the first fully connected car from Seat, featuring a suite of contemporary safety features and lighting systems, such as the cutting-edge Matrix LED headlights.

Approximately 1.1 million euros were invested in the design of this car, which was available once again as a hatchback and a station wagon. Marking its 25th anniversary, a fresh update was introduced featuring a 1.5-liter electric hybrid engine capable of 133 kilometers on electric power alone and a quick charge time of just 26 minutes. Seat no longer offered a Cupra version; instead, the newly established Cupra brand took over, equipping the Leon with a robust engine of up to 333 horsepower.

Achievements in sports, cinema, and among professionals

Leon's tale of triumph is also evident through a multitude of awards. It has been named "Car of the Year" in Spain not once, but twice. Particularly noteworthy are its victories in the World Touring Car Championship: in 2008 and 2009, it clinched the championships, becoming the first manufacturer to secure a FIA world title with a diesel engine.

Jaguar’s Electric Future Unveiled: Leaked Concept Car Hints at New Design Era

Published

on

By

Images of a concept electric vehicle from Jaguar surfaced prematurely, offering a glimpse into the brand's forthcoming EV aesthetic before its scheduled unveiling.

The unveiling of the Jaguar Design Vision prototype was scheduled for Monday evening during Miami Art Week, however, the CocheSpias Instagram account leaked pictures before the event. The photos reveal a coupe with a hatchback design featuring two doors and a sharper look compared to existing Jaguar designs, yet it maintains a lengthy front end as a tribute to iconic Jaguar sports vehicles, including the E-Type.

The design omits a back window, similar to the Polestar 4, and it's probable that cameras will help with the driver's visibility towards the rear. A pattern of slats is consistently applied to the vehicle's front, rear, and even the top, though it's uncertain whether this feature has a practical use like aiding airflow or if it's simply an aesthetic choice.

The car's inside includes a uniquely shaped steering wheel and a separation between the seating area. It appears to be devoid of traditional displays, indicating that essential details may be displayed directly onto the front glass panel.

A significant number of innovations from the Design Vision prototype are anticipated to be incorporated into Jaguar's forthcoming electric vehicles, the initial model being a sleek grand tourer that's been spotted undergoing trials in disguise. The retail model, which might feature four doors rather than the traditional two, is set to be unveiled in 2025. It's expected to come with a hefty price in the hundreds of thousands and boast greater horsepower than any past Jaguar models designed for street use, with customer deliveries kicking off in 2026.

Leaked image of the Jaguar Design Vision Concept surfaces on CocheSpias' Instagram profile

The luxury sports car is set to be a part of Jaguar's trio of new electric vehicles, a plan unveiled in 2021. Jaguar is currently phasing out its existing petrol vehicles and the I-Pace, its initial electric car, leaving just the F-Pace SUV available for purchase until the launch of the upcoming electric lineup. It is anticipated that an SUV and a classic-style four-door car will join the lineup after the debut of the initial model.

Each of the trio will operate on an innovative framework known as the Jaguar Electrified Architecture (JEA), and they will be equipped with North American Charging Standard (NACS) outlets, enabling motorists to utilize Tesla Supercharger locations.

Range Rover Electric Braces for Extremes: From Scorching Deserts to Arctic Frost

Published

on

By

The all-electric Range Rover is currently being tested in high-temperature conditions. The trials for this luxurious electric SUV are progressing swiftly.

Booking slots for the newly announced electric version of the Range Rover, known as the Range Rover Electric, became available towards the end of 2023. Customers can expect their vehicles to be delivered the following year, which suggests it will be categorized as a 2026 model in the United States market. Prior to its release, Land Rover is putting the electric SUV through rigorous trials in harsh environments to guarantee that its performance matches that of its traditional fuel-powered counterpart, especially in off-road scenarios.

Prototype of an Electric Range Rover

Land Rover announced nearing the completion of their extreme heat testing initiative, where prototype vehicles endured conditions reaching 122 degrees Fahrenheit and humidity levels up to 90%.

Models in their preliminary stages were tested in Dubai by scaling a 300-foot sand dune on five separate occasions. Land Rover emphasizes that maintaining consistent performance levels despite the heat is a mandatory criterion for all forthcoming Range Rover vehicles.

Prototype of an Electric Range Rover

After a journey to the Arctic Circle during the previous winter for frigid climate assessments, the team examined the prototypes' reactions to extreme cold, reaching temperatures of -40 degrees Fahrenheit. They adjusted the structural systems to ensure performance on slippery terrain. This involved a unique traction control system that controls the electric motors instead of using the brakes, which is the standard in traditional Land Rovers with internal combustion engines.

The anticipated Range Rover Electric is likely to employ an adapted version of the existing MLA (Modular Longitudinal Architecture) base, which is currently used in the brand's gasoline and hybrid models. Production is set to take place in the historical Solihull factory in the U.K., where Land Rovers have been assembled for many years. Following this, an electric version of the Range Rover Sport and a new electric variant to replace the Range Rover Velar are also expected to be introduced. Additionally, Jaguar, the sister company, is slated to release three electric vehicles as well.

Porsche Macan Electric Recall: Overly Bright Headlights Prompt Safety Concerns for 2,941 Vehicles

Published

on

By

Porsche issues a recall for 2,941 Macan EVs due to excessively bright headlights that may impair the vision of approaching motorists and heighten the chances of an accident.

Porsche is recalling its Macan Electric vehicles from the years 2024 and 2025, built from March 15, 2024, to November 04, 2024. The software that manages the headlights in these cars adheres to European specifications instead of the required U.S. regulations, causing the lights to shine brighter than what is allowed under the FMVSS No. 108, as per the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's findings.

Upcoming 2024 Electric Model of Porsche Macan

Porsche informed the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that they've resolved the programming mistake in vehicles produced later on. However, they anticipate that every vehicle subject to the recall is likely affected. To address the problem, owners will need to bring their vehicles to dealers where the headlight software will be updated at no cost. Unfortunately, this correction is not possible through a remote update.

Porsche plans to send out letters to vehicle owners on January 24, 2025, to inform them about the recall. Additionally, owners can reach out to Porsche's customer support at 1-800-767-7243 to get further details. The recall is identified by Porsche with the reference number ARC5.

Upcoming 2024 Electric Version of the Porsche Macan

The 2024 model year saw the launch of the electric Macan, marking it as an initial entrant in the electric vehicle market utilizing the Premium Platform Electric (PPE), which it shares with Audi. This platform also serves as the foundation for Audi's Q6 E-Tron SUV and A6 E-Tron sedan. The innovative platform elevates technology initially introduced in the Porsche Taycan to a broader audience, featuring an 800-volt charging system capable of achieving a maximum charging rate of 270 kw.

For the year 2024, Porsche offered just two versions of the Macan—the dual-motor Macan 4 and the Macan Turbo. Come 2025, the lineup grew to include a more affordable base model with a single motor and rear-wheel drive, reducing the starting price of the electric Macan by approximately $3,000. Additionally, a new Macan 4S with dual motors was introduced, positioned between the existing Macan 4 and Turbo variants. While Porsche continues to sell the previous gas-powered Macan model alongside the new electric version, the company has announced plans to exclusively sell the electric Macan from 2026 onwards.
