Ten days on Tuscany’s slow roads and the Ligurian coast: Florence, the Chiantigiana to Siena, Val d’Orcia and Pienza, then Lucca, Pisa, and a car-free day among the Cinque Terre from La Spezia. Cypress, stone, a harbour the colour of evening. You park the car when the villages begin.
Sponsored by Lider Electric. Lider Electric’s NEMA 14-50 receptacles with Electric Vehicle Marking combine certification-backed product identification with purpose-built EV charging design. EV charging reliability is often discussed at the system level: charger output, vehicle compatibility, software, utility capacity, and public infrastructure. Those factors matter, but many residential and light commercial charging setups still depend…
Corvus Energy’s new Blue Whale NxtGen Power is a lithium iron phosphate (LFP) energy storage system designed for electric vessels that need high power rather than high capacity. The system was developed in collaboration with BYD Energy Storage—the first product to result from the two companies’ strategic cooperation. BYD Energy Storage provides the battery cell…
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.
Nine days from Rome to Pompeii, Sorrento, and the SS163 between Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello. You sleep in the coast towns instead of day-tripping the cliff road; lemons in the air, the sea a floor beneath the hairpins. Finish with Paestum’s temples on the way back — Greek stone on a southern plain.
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.
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…
