Volkswagen belê €60 Bn in binnebrand enjin ontwikkeling.

Arno Antlitz, the Volkswagen Group's chief operating and financial officer, said the following: "The future is electric, but the past is not over." As per a story published by Automotive News Europe, Antlitz made it clear that the internal combustion budget "is a third" of the total R&D budget for 2023 through 2027.

Bogenoemde is waar, maar op wat word die ander 2 derdes of groot gedeeltes daarvan, van VW se navorsing en ontwikkelings (R&D) begroting gespandeer?

However, the news that really shocked me when I saw it this morning is that the Volkswagen ID.4 was the 3rd most American-made car in the country in 2024! It’s shocking since, well, Volkswagen isn’t even an American car company. Also, it’s surprising and uplifting to see that another electric car is at the top of the charts.

Electric VW ID.4

Kan bogenoemde dalk wees waar die veel groter 2 derdes R&D deur VW spandeer word?

Goeie vriend van my se Volvo (elektries) het spontaan aan die brand geslaan in sy motorhuis terwyl hy met vakansie was.
Gelukkig was sy dogter tuis om brandweer te ontbied............ R3.5m se skade later, nie eers 'n ondersoek deur Volvo!!
Kar was nie eers besig om te laai nie............ Hou maar die pers dop, my vriend is, met reg, diep ongelukkig.

Dankie vir jou terugvoering van jou vriend af in verband met die slegte brand ervaring, André.

Koos, dit was die XC90 Recharge ... ... dus 'n Hybrid wat gebrand het.

Volgens foto wat André geplaas het in PM aan my, is die voorkant waar die binnebrand enjin van die Volvo XC90 geleë is, by verre die meeste beskadig deur die brand.

Teoreties sou 'n vol elektriese voertuig, met sy batterye wat tussen die voor- en agterwiele onder vloervlak geleë is, van onder af boontoe gebrand het en veel groter dele van die voertuig erg beskadig het, in geval waar daardie EV batterye die brand veroorsaak het.

Ek hoop werklik die ware oorsaak van die brand kan vasgestel word en dat Volvo, indien dit 'n vervaardigingsdefek is, sal instaan vir die skade so veroorsaak.

Met brandstof maatskappye soos Shell, Total en BP (blykbaar nie BP nie) wat die RSA verlaat, is daar darem verblydende nuwe herlaai stasies wat stadig maar seker meer word in die RSA.

South Africa’s EV market is still quite small, but it is now starting to show signs of progress.
This is why Audi, in collaboration with partners such as Rubicon, is contributing to the growth of electric vehicle charging infrastructure in South Africa.

The automaker gave local media their first taste of its battery-electric offerings this week, and the wait was certainly worth it.

Many moons of anticipation.

En nou nog meer wag voor hierdie vervaardiger se EV's plaaslik te koop sal wees.

South Africa's first electric bus fleet.

“Under demanding conditions such as simulating peak passenger capacities and conquering Cape Town’s steepest inclines, the robustness and reliability of BYD’s electric buses were unequivocally demonstrated,” BYD said.

By fulfilling this deal, the two companies said they will create the country’s first electric bus fleet and promote sustainable public transport.

“As a company with such a rich history, we are proud to be the first to bring electric buses to South Africa’s public transport space,” Golden Arrow CEO Francois Meyer said.

The core of the A6 e-tron is a lithium-ion battery with 800V technology and a gross capacity of 100kWh, giving it an incredible range of over 750km on the Sportback and 720km on the Avant, owing to the latter’s bulkier profile.

The battery is hooked up to electric motors mounted on each axle, which generate a system output of 270kW on the base models and 370kW (405kW with launch control) on the high-performance S6.

For the first time in nearly a decade, BMW has been dethroned as South Africa’s top-selling battery electric vehicle (BEV) brand.

Local sales of fully-electric cars continued to surge in 2024, with a 49% year-on-year increase in the first six months of the year.

Die onderstaande is 'n oorsigtelike artikel met betrekking tot EV ontwikkelings in die wêreld daar buite ons grense.

Dié dinge kring uit oor die hele wêreld en kom selfs hier plaaslik uit iewers vorentoe.

Interessant hoe die EV ontwikkeling net wyer en wyer uitkring.

Mercedes Benz is nogal heel taktvol met die beskrywing van die voertuig se aanwending -

Electric Minibus Taxi?
Mey says the eSprinter is currently only available as a panel van and cannot be converted into a people carrier.

Die MB Sprinter is baie bekend as 'n luukse passasiers bussie - wonder hoe lank voordat dié EV weergawe bekend gestel sal word?

Die Volvo EX90 is 'n tenvolle elektriese voertuig, net soos sy kleinboet die EX30 wat baie populêr is in Suid Afrika.

In Sweden, it’s sold in standard and Performance variants, the former generating 300kW and 770Nm and the latter a more substantial 380kW and 910Nm.
The 0-100km/h sprint is done and dusted in 5.9 seconds in the less powerful entry whereas the Performance shaves it down to just 4.9 seconds.
Both models employ a 111kWh battery with a maximum driving range of around 600km on the cards measured on the WLTP standard.

Heeltemal reg LUAN, in jou aanhaling van 2024-09-04 uit Timeslive, verwys Volvo na hulle oorspronklike plan om teen 2030 uitsluitlik elektriese voertuie te verkoop, wat hulle nou vir eers opsy skuif.


Uit Timeslive met dieselfde datum, nl. 2024-09-04 verskyn hierdie skrywe wat presies berig soos in my aanvanklike plasing, naamlik dat Volvo die eerste EX90 7-sitplek SUV gedurende 2025 sal beskikbaar stel in SA.

Lees gerus die volledige artikel om te verstaan waarheen mik Volvo om wanneer met hulle EV's watter doelwit te bereik.

There are no excuses here about EV sales not growing as fast as they’d hoped. There’s no trash talk about the EV revolution. There’s no implication that consumers just aren’t ready for EVs. What there is, is an acknowledgement that the last small percentage of buyers can be true laggards when it comes to adopting new tech. That’s the technical term.

Volvo's EV plan change, pessimism or tech adoption realism?

Siende dat hier nog geen ander tenvolle elektriese bakkie in Suid Afrika beskikbaar is nie en selfs die oudste bakkie vervaardigers hier plaaslik, nog nie eers probeer het om 'n halfnaatjie/Hybrid hier beskikbaar te stel nie, plaas ons maar hierdie outjie vir die wat moontlik mag belangstel.

“With competitive pricing, low operating costs, and zero emissions, the SRM T3 EV is an ideal choice for businesses shifting to sustainable logistics. Paired with solar charging, it delivers significant cost savings, enhancing the transition to green energy in an affordable way.”

Eerste tenvolle EV bakkie beskikbaar in SA

Hiérdie nou net om te bevestig hoe sukkel ons jarelange plaaslike bakkie vervaardigers om net 'n ou halfnaatjie EV bakkie hier beskikbaar te stel, wat darem 45km afstand op suiwer elektriese stelsel kan haal - wat 'n belaglike spul.

"Of course, the real benefit of the plug-in is that it can temporarily be driven as a fully-electric vehicle, as the 11.8kWh cell affords a range of 45km.

The Ford Ranger PHEV will be exclusively built at the company’s Silverton Plant in Pretoria, South Africa, following a R5.2-billion investment, but it is not currently confirmed for our market.

At a media event held earlier this year, Ford representatives explained that it will only start talking about a possible introduction at a later date, meaning that it has not been ruled out either.

For now, the electrified bakkie is set to be produced solely for export to Europe, but the Blue Oval will hopefully provide an update on its South African launch prospects in the near future."
