Ten days on the eastern Dolomites edge: Toblach and the still water of Lago di Braies at dawn, the Landro valley toward Auronzo, the Cadore towns of Pieve and Lorenzago, then Belluno and the Piave before turning north again. This is not the Cortina–Sella circuit already on the map — it approaches the high walls from the Cadore side and spends nights where the lakes and timber towns set the pace. Charge in Bruneck, Toblach and Belluno.
Euro NCAP has released the results of rigorous tests on new models under enhanced protocols. Safety leaders at Autocentre.ua.
Japanese premium brand Lexus has carried out a major restyling of its best-selling NX, increasing the range of its plug-in hybrid model to 100 km. Details available at Autocentre.ua.
Billions of dollars have been invested in large-format EV cell and battery manufacturing capacity over the past several years. While demand for EVs has fluctuated across regions globally, demand for Stationary Energy Storage Systems (ESS) has surged to augment existing grid capacity and support the growing energy demands of emerging technologies such as AI Data…
EV charging giant ChargePoint, together with intelligent power management company Eaton, will provide EV charging infrastructure for Big Blue Bus, a public transit agency that serves the city of Santa Monica and the greater Westside region of Los Angeles County. The Santa Monica Department of Transportation aims to operate a fully zero-emission fleet by 2032.
Coulomb Solutions (CSI), a provider of commercial electrification and energy storage products, is adding Megawatt Charging System (MCS) support to its newest-generation Mobile Battery Energy Storage Systems. CSI’s optional architecture incorporates MCS on both the input and output sides. This allows the system to be rapidly recharged through an MCS connection, and to provide high-power…
Detailed review of the first-generation Chevrolet Bolt EV: 60 and 66 kWh batteries, recall due to fire risk, actual range, charging, common issues, prices in Ukraine and on U.S. auctions.
Nine days on the quieter west side of the Dolomites: Bolzano, the cathedral spires of Brixen, Santa Maddalena under the Odle peaks, the meadows of Alpe di Siusi from Seis and Castelrotto, then Klausen and the Isarco valley back south. This loop stays clear of Val Gardena passes and the Sella ring. Charge in Bolzano and Bruneck; the high meadows are for walking and looking, not for racing the gauge.
Wevo has developed WEVOPUR 60210 FL T, a polyurethane compound for the selective potting of multilayer printed circuit boards in automotive battery management systems. The system is applied by the dam-and-fill method and is built for boards that monitor and control voltages of up to 800 V in electric vehicles. Diagnostic, communication and safety functions…
Grok is already available in Teslas in Poland and controls a significant portion of the car’s functions in Polish, from navigation to multimedia and settings. It performs best in handling menus and location-based reminders, but it still doesn’t remember conversations after the session ends.
BYD has begun delivering the four-seater sports electric vehicle Denza Z to Chinese dealerships. Specifications and trims available on Autocentre.ua…
hofer powertrain has built a battery module that varies the mechanical preload on each cell in operation, a value normally fixed by the module’s physical design. How much pressure, or preload, a cell sees affects how quickly it ages, and hofer powertrain says holding it in the right range can extend how long a cell…
Chroma has added a charge playback function to its PowerPro 5 test software, letting engineers replay CAN (Controller Area Network) communication data captured from real charging sessions through the Chroma 8000 test system. Chroma says the function complies with GB/T 27930, and it reproduces a recorded session on the bench for validation and debugging. Chargers…
Swiss dairy company Emmi Schweiz has deployed three electrified refrigerated trailers from Nivalis Energy Europe as part of its efforts to reduce emissions from its refrigerated transport fleet. Now operating on live distribution routes, the trailers power their energy-intensive refrigeration systems using dedicated battery systems, preserving the e-trucks’ battery capacity for driving. One of Switzerland’s…
