All collaboration they say with engineering, design, and more set to be their European base for their European expansion. China is going to require EV export licenses. A bit like combustion cars have to, by the way, all to do with ensuring that if a Chinese EV does get exported overseas and there's plenty of them that are, that they are the real deal that they have got high quality standards. They've got after-sale service and things like that. So yes, they're going to restrict overseas exports. They don't want to slow that down, by the way. I think this is about raising the bus.
It's hard to make sure that only the best companies are out there and don't let Western buyers down by going fast or having terrible after-sales if there is any service. BYD had a hundred UK dealerships after 30 months of saying that they're going to enter the UK market. BYD is also adding its eighth car carrier. They're going to stop here, by the way, after having eight in the fleet, such a vertically integrated company, eight of their own car carriers shipping those cars overseas to other markets.
Sodium ion batteries have been talking about a bit lately. There was a conference made the news on Saturday or Sunday on this podcast and today, we're talking about how sodium ion batteries have now reached manufacturing and energy parity with LFP lithium ion phosphate. That's important because this would decouple batteries from the lithium supply chain. Sodium ion batteries are now hitting maybe 150, 175 watt hours per kilogram. And actually by terms of 2026 commercialization, the price will be
the price parity as well with LFP. That's a really big deal. EVE energy are going to be supplying BMW and their cylindrical cells for a newer cluster. They'll be doing that from their Hungarian plant, the Debra Senn facility that BMW make those vehicles. EVE energy opening up their new Hungary plant and reaching a critical milestone by adding all of the manufacturing equipment that's on bang on track.
The four-year is going to end EVE Carpool lane exemption. That's tomorrow, by the way, first of October, and this is going to be a 60-day sun-setting period. So if you haven't been reading the news, if the police highway patrol do pull you over, you've got a couple of months grace on that one.
Fisker owners groups really impressive. 11,000 Fiskers were sold to customers before the company went under in June 2024.
Now they formed a nonprofit association. It's fascinating to see what they're doing. They are securing parts, expertise, even approaching former Fisker engineers for assistance and help to keep those vehicles on the road for as long as possible.
EVE is often connected vehicles, but even then, things like any machine will break, and so even sourcing parts is a really, really big deal.
Van Drivers support the move to electric Volkswagen, Van did some research over here. 75% Van Drivers said that they go electric and that it can make its business needs.
Cost was the number one reason they gave. Yeah, why not? If you're running a business, you want to make the most amount of money or provide the best service or the best possible.
Cost and if it's spending more money on diesel than electrons, I mean, who cares? If you really, really love your diesel, if it's cheaper to drive electric and you should do, if you're doing stop-start, postal, parcel, delivery, you know, milk, groceries, all that kind of stuff, EVE is so ideal, isn't it?
France's eco-bonus has got off to a wobbly start. They've put out a list of vehicles that can get the extra 1,000 euro incentive bonus, ecologique.
However, there is some confusion because they put some trims onto the list of the 200 cars which are no longer in production anymore, and you can't buy them, and also some vehicles which, because you're going to have a special battery sourcing from within Europe and be a certain cost, vehicles that also don't qualify by the look of it,
but they put them on the list of vehicles that do qualify. In India, they're going to roll out 72,000 public EV charging stations, government facilities and buildings.
