It's evening news briefly for Monday. Sick the Voketoba everything EV in less than five minutes. If you're stuck for time, let's get you up to speed. Sorry, I've been away for a couple of days. My young children are walking, talking germ machines and brought home something from nursery, and I got sick, but back at work now. Sorry about the interruption. Cadillac is updating the optic, adding a new rear-wheel drive base model, and a high performance all-wheel drive system. Also adding J3400 connector on the side, mates of Naxx, 440 horsepower, 317 miles.
That boosts choice and convenience. Chevrolet is recalling 23,700 Equinox EVs to correct a pedestrian warning sound calibration. In other words, the vehicles are too quiet. The problem will be resolved with a software update.
Germany will extend its vehicle tax exemption for EVs through 2035, encouraging more battery electric adoption. The move provides years of savings for buyers with more support for low and middle income households.
Kia will introduce their EV 2. It's a affordable electric superman for Europe, targeting a starting price of 30,000 euros. I guess you'd call this B segment, wouldn't you?
Production begins next year in Slovakia. That's going to be more choice if you're shopping for a Citroen EC3 or a VW ID Polo.
Polestar set a UK record in September, 2758 registrations triple the previous month, well lower prices have helped, and a newly updated Polestar 3, making their range more attractive and competitive.
Rivian will reposition its rear door manual releases in the next generation of their vehicles. For easier access during emergencies, the change will debut on the R2. That vehicle comes early next year, improving safety while maintaining powered convenience.
Tesla is now offering factory turn signal stalk retrofits in Europe, so if you have a Model 3 from 23 to 25, the last couple of years, and you've got 660 euros to spare, they'll put a stalk back on. The initial run actually sold out, giving owners a traditional control option backed by the car maker.
California regulators are taking enforcement action against Tesla's insurance unit over claims handling violations while the issue is regulatory.
It may prompt some process changes that improve Tesla insurance.
Volkswagen is outsourcing more and more of its EV software to the Rivian partnership, and also expung in China as well.
It's a bit of a fresh start for VW's digital strategy, a carry-out taking on their software arm, more of a maintenance role for the vehicles already out there.
Ford have a new electric Bronco, but only if you're in China, tailored for camping adventures, it's got a pop-up roof. Why didn't the ID buzz come with a pop-up roof Volkswagen, Ford of China have put one on, and it looks awesome, all electric and e-reversions.
Ford also filing a new trademark for their Ion Boost brand. Obviously they have the EcoBoost in their engines. Ion Boost is applicable to batteries, drive trains and EV components as well.
Aligning with Ford's plan to offer different chemistries and EV powertrain options, but all under one banner of Ion Boost. Not using it publicly yet, it's a patent application or a trademark application, I should say.
InstaVolt is a charging network here in the UK, and they're fitting their new cables with GPS trackers. This is because there is a theft problem in some parts of the world.
I've seen it here as well, the UK and Germany, as well. InstaVolt are doing this. Now this has GPS tracking inside the cables itself, which transmit to signal every three seconds, they say.
So should the cables be stolen, they can get tracked to where they go, and finally, Norway's first intercity electric test aeroplane flight.
Cut a four-hour journey by ferry to just 55 minutes. Now these aren't passenger flights yet, but strong potential to replace short haul flights with electric clean green power. That's briefly.
