  4. SAN FRANCISCO — Tesla reported a sharp decline in car deliveries in the first quarter, a disappointing start to the year for a company beset by market challenges and reputation hazards. The delivery numbers reported Tuesday come as Tesla faces soft demand for electric vehicles, high interest rates, a string of lawsuits against its technology and controversy surrounding its chief executive, Elon Musk. Musk had warned during a January earnings call that Tesla would experience a “notably lower growth rate” this year as the company invests in a next-generation vehicle it plans to start building in 2025. The electric-vehicle carmaker — whose stock is down more than 20 percent in the first quarter — slashed its prices throughout 2023 to maintain demand, but those cuts were not enough to overcome the headwinds it has faced in the first quarter of the year, analysts said. “It’s death by 1,000 cuts,” said Karl Brauer, an executive analyst with car research company ISeeCars.com. Musk “has never had a demand problem … but over the past year-plus, there has been increasing indicators that he’s producing more cars than the market wants.” Tesla said it delivered 387,000 vehicles in the first quarter, down from 484,000 in the previous quarter and fewer than analysts expected. The company cited a shift to early production of the next version of its Model 3 sedan, Red Sea shipping disruptions and a suspected arson at its Berlin factory. Deepwater Management analyst Gene Munster blamed the broader economy and falling EV sentiment for Tesla’s “ugly delivery number.” Higher interest rates have made it more expensive to finance pricier electric vehicles, Munster wrote in a tweet, adding, “The excitement around [electric vehicles] has cooled, which further dampens sales.” But he also wrote that Tesla is still “on the right track.” Tesla stock was down more than 5 percent in early trading Tuesday. Analysts had expected first-quarter deliveries of around 425,000 vehicles, according to Daniel Ives, a tech analyst with Wedbush Securities. Ives said it has been a “nightmare quarter” for Tesla, as the car marker grappled with a “perfect storm” of increased competition from China, waning demand in the overall EV market and a fire at its factory in Berlin that added more strains on production and deliveries. The company said it produced 433,000 vehicles in the first quarter. “This will be not be a moment of celebration for the bulls and instead be a rip-the-Band-Aid quarter for Tesla investors,” Ives said. “For Musk, this is a fork-in-the-road time to get Tesla through this turbulent period, otherwise darker days could be ahead.” Wider market forces are also at play for Tesla. While sales of electric vehicles are still growing faster than gasoline-car sales in the United States, interest has started to cool lately amid concerns about a lack of charging infrastructure, among other reasons. Other carmakers, such as Mercedes-Benz, have delayed electrification goals or reduced their short-term ambitions of electrification. At the same time, though, Chinese electric-vehicle maker BYD overtook Tesla last year, selling more electric vehicles on a quarterly basis. Tesla’s lower sales numbers add to the company’s troubles. It is also facing increased scrutiny from regulators over its driver-assistance software, Autopilot. Last year, the company agreed to recall 2 million vehicles — nearly every car it has produced — over concerns that the technology did not have enough guardrails to prevent driver misuse. The recall, which was conducted by a remote update, was the result of a sweeping investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration into the technology. Days before the recall was announced, The Washington Post published an investigation identifying at least eight fatal or serious crashes involving Autopilot in locations where the software was not intended to be used.

  5. Xiaomi announced it received 88,898 firm orders for the SU7 within 24 hours following the launch. The test drives started on Friday in China in 59 stores in 29 cities nationwide, resulting in overcrowded venues. The deposit customers must pay to lock in their car is 5,000 yuan (850 USD). The Xiaomi Beijing plant has an annual production capacity of 150,000 vehicles in the first phase, increasing to 300,000 vehicles in the second phase. Considering that production hasn’t yet reached total capacity, Xiaomi will have eight months of full production in 2024, which means it can produce about 100,000 cars, maybe a little more if there are no significant issues with shifts at production lines. The company received about 90,000 firm orders in the first 24 hours and hasn’t released any update since then, but it is almost certain that now, 48 hours after the launch, the order book is way over 100,000 units.

  6. piu grande, architettura multienergy, phev con grande autonomia elettrica.
  7. La clientela di queste auto in maggioranza e interessato in fare Autobahn dritto con velocita altissima, non piu. E questo compito anche una M5 a 2,5t lo fa.
  8. Prima auto di serie con batteria a stato solido, autonomia CLTC piu di 1000km. Potrebbe commercializzata in Europa come MG. IM Motors claim that the L6, due to launch in May, will come with the industry’s first mass-produced ultra-fast charging solid state battery. More details will be announced at the IM L6 Technology Conference on April 8 but we already know that the new battery will be 130 kWh. The cathode (positive electrode) is coated with ultra-high nickel material with the anode (negative) being a new generation of high-specific energy composite silicon carbon material. Where solid-state batteries differ significantly from existing technology is with the electrolyte being solid, in the case of the one used by the IM L6 a patented self-developed nano-scale electrolyte. This has “high ionic conductivity, high-temperature resistance” which presumably means the fire risk will be less. Furthermore, the electrolyte uses dry solid layer integrated molding with the resultant battery having reduced internal resistance meaning ultra-fast charging is possible. These technologies solve the problem of high expansion of silicon-based materials ensuring stability, and allowing better charging/discharging performance ultimately ensuring better safety. SAIC claim the car has quasi 900V ultra-fast charging. By having a solid electrolyte it is not possible for it to leak which improves safety and also makes the battery less prone to combustion or explosion. IM also has five-fold safety protection technology to shield batteries with heat insulation and fire retardant materials. IM announced at the Geneva Motor Show that the L6 equipped with the solid state battery would have a CLTC range of 1000 km (CLTC) or under WLTP, 800 km. However, MIIT listings which are the precursor for a car going on sale do not feature a solid state battery. Instead the car comes with a choice 90 or 100 kWh ternary lithium (NCM) battery packs from CATL. The smaller pack gives the rear wheel drive version a 720 km CLTC range and the all-wheel drive 700 km whereas the 100 kWh battery gives 770 km and 750 km respectively. SAIC aim to take the IM brand international this year and sales should begin in Europe next year. Currently it is not clear whether IM models will be rebranded in Europe as MG cars or whether they will still be called IM. IM Motors was founded in 2020 as a joint venture between SAIC Motor, Alibaba Group, and Zhangjiang Hi-Tech. The first model was the L7 sedan which went on sale in 2022 and has since been followed by the LS7 and LS6 SUVs.
  9. ...il senso e di vendere 40-50k macchine in piu ad un prezzo piu alto rispetto la banale ser-1 e la cosa con la sproporzione si vede diversa in altri mercati che Italia.
  10. Si forse - ma questtipo di clientela fuori Itallia non prende nemmeno in considerazione una Alfa. Sara il prossimo modello di Clonantis, che vende solo in Italia.
  11. Boh...gia MiTo e Punto hanno avuto significante piu cavalli 15 anni fa. Una Milano come mini-suv e molto piu pesante e poi solo un 3cil a 136CV per una Alfa di 2024 e solamente ridicolo.

    Geely Galaxy E5 2024 (Spy)

    Geely Galaxy, the independent brand under Geely specializing in new energy vehicles, has recently announced the name of its upcoming pure electric SUV. Earlier this week, shots of the car were released, but the name was unclear. The new vehicle will be called the Galaxy E5, as revealed by the brand’s official announcement and the latest teaser “spy” shots. Anticipation is building as the SUV is set to debut at the Beijing Auto Show in April. With an estimated price range of 150,000 to 200,000 yuan (approximately $21,000 to $28,000), the Galaxy E5 aims to capture the attention of the electric SUV market. One notable aspect of the Galaxy E5 is that it will be the brand’s first global product. As a result, both left-hand drive and right-hand drive versions will undergo simultaneous development and testing to cater to different markets worldwide. This demonstrates Geely Galaxy’s ambition to expand its presence beyond the domestic market and reach a wider international audience. The Galaxy E5’s exterior design is similar to that of its sibling model, the Galaxy E8. It features the distinctive Light Cosmos Dynamic grille. The sharp headlights and the L-shaped air intake trim below make the SUV look sporty. Moving to the side profile, the Galaxy E5 showcases an integration of design elements. The hidden door handles improve the vehicle’s sleekness and increase its aerodynamic efficiency. The low-wind-resistance alloy wheels complement the car’s overall futuristic look. At the rear, the Galaxy E5 has a continuous taillight design and a large spoiler. Geely Galaxy’s brand plans to introduce three new models in 2024, all built on the latest architecture. However, online pundits claim the vehicle is similar to or copies the Porshe Macan and the Mercedes ECQ. As the Geely Galaxy brand continues to expand its lineup of new energy vehicles, the introduction of the Galaxy E5 represents another step forward. With a sleek design, electric powertrain, and global focus, the Galaxy E5 aims to offer a compelling option in the competitive electric SUV market. Automotive enthusiasts and consumers await its official unveiling at the Beijing Auto Show, where more details about its specifications and features might attract an audience. (CNC)
  13. Unica motivazione per me potrebbe essere una riduzione dei costi con un display piu piccolo, ma anche questa nel foto di spy mi sembra curved, solo meno largo che quella in X1. Ma alla fine, indipendente della misura, personalmente trovo tutti questi tablet non integrati orribili, ma sembra che la clientela piu giovane e globale trova bella questa soluzione.
  14. Ecco.... In a twist, Fiat could add gasoline engine option to 500e The current ICE Fiat 500 will not be homologated for Europe after July, and the EV version's sales are slowing. A new gasoline variant could solve several problems for Fiat. Sales of the New Fiat 500 EV (shown in three-door version) did not allow Fiat to reach its production target of 90,000 at its Mirafiori factory in 2023. TURIN – Fiat could add a mild-hybrid gasoline engine to its 500e minicar, which is now available only as a full-electric model, people familiar with the issue said. Early this month, Fiat asked suppliers for quotations to increase production of the 500e at Stellantis’ Mirafiori factory to 175,000 units annually from the 77,260 that were built in 2023. The news of the potential conversion was first reported by Il Corriere della Sera and confirmed to Automotive News Europe by suppliers. Of that total, 100,000 would be gasoline models, the suppliers said on condition of anonymity to disclose confidential information, and because Fiat has not yet decided whether to proceed. The move to convert a car designed to be electric-only to internal combustion would be highly unusual, not the least because Fiat already sells a gasoline-engine 500, although it predates the 500e by more than a decade and is slightly smaller. That model, on the market since 2007, is built in Tychy, Poland. Adding a gasoline version of the 500e to Mirafiori could ease unions’ fears about declining volumes of the 500e, as well as help satisfy the Italian government’s goal of maintaining the country’s auto production at no less than one million per year. Stellantis is the only volume manufacturer in Italy. Last year, Fiat sold more than 104,000 gasoline 500s and more than 62,000 500es in Europe, according to figures from Dataforce. Production of a mild-hybrid 500e, powered by the 1.0-liter, 70 hp FireFly gasoline engine used by the ICE 500 and Fiat’s other minicar, the Panda, could start no earlier than late 2025 or early 2026, industry sources told ANE. A Stellantis spokesman did not deny that the letter was sent to suppliers but declined to comment further. The Fiat 500 has been in production since 2007, but it will not be homologated for new safety and cybersecurity regulations. It will continue to be sold in Africa and the Middle East, and is set to be assembled in Algeria. Several factors in play The potential move is driven by a combination of factors. The first is internal. Fiat, with a target of being an electric-only brand in Europe by 2030, has decided not to upgrade the current 500 ICE model to comply with new EU safety and cybersecurity rules that will come into force in July. Instead, it will revamp to Panda to comply and keep the model in production until at least 2027. The Panda would be Fiat’s ICE minicar, while the 500e would cover the minicar segment for EV buyers. The second is external. Electric car sales in Europe are slowing due to a combination of higher interest rates, a lack of disposable income because of inflation and cutbacks in EV incentives in large market such as Germany. Italian unions worry that lagging demand in Europe for the 500e could lead to Fiat reducing output at Mirafiori to 40,000 to 50,000 from the 100,000 planned for this year, even though the model will also be exported to the U.S. The 500e, launched in 2020 as the New 500, had a promising start, with production reaching 77,500 in 2022. Fiat had hoped output would reach 90,000 last year, but after demand fell in the second half of the year, production was flat at 77,260. Fiat has reacted to sluggish sales of the 500e since the start of this year by cutting one of two shifts at Mirafiori in mid-February. Adding a gasoline engine to the 500e at Mirafiori could help make up for lower sales of the electric version, with the current 500 no longer compliant after July. ICE 500 moves to Algeria Fiat was set to halt production of the current ICE 500 in Poland at the end of April. The model would move to Fiat’s new factory in Tafraoui-Orano, Algeria, which has a capacity of 90,000 units a year. Because it would not be compliant with new homologation rules for Europe, it will be sold in the Middle East and Africa only. To build inventories to serve the EU market in the short term, Fiat has decided to extend ICE 500 production in Poland until the end of June and delay the transfer to Algeria, suppliers told ANE. If the project is green-lighted, it could take 18 to 24 months to engineer the 500e to accept a gasoline engine, even though the car’s platform is based on the Alfa Romeo MiTo, a gasoline model that was built at Mirafiori, and is built on the MiTo assembly line there. That would leave a gap in Fiat’s 500 lineup, with the outgoing gasoline model starting at 17,700 euros in Italy, while the 500e starts at 29,950 euros. (ANE)
  15. Casa e sorpredente a questo leak? E esttamente la linea ci si vede gia alle prototipi
