Fisker announced a new milestone of delivering more than 100 electric cars in a single day, which is expected to further increase in the coming weeks. The company explains that the key to accelerating sales and deliveries was its new distribution strategy, which already allowed it to deliver 107 Oceans on November 16. The improved distribution capabilities include establishing its own delivery locations (globally), which are staffed by an ever-growing number of Fisker employees, as well as the addition of multiple transportation logistics partners to quickly move Fisker Oceans to delivery locations. According to the company, customers who live within…
Terabase Energy has successfully completed its first commercial solar installation using Terafab, its automatic solar-installing robot. Solar-installing robot The Terafab robot – aka the “construction automation platform” – installed 17 megawatts (MW) of the 225 MW White Wing Ranch project in Yuma County, Arizona, on which solar tech company Terabase Energy is working alongside developer Leeward Renewable Energy (LRE) and contractor RES. The Terafab robot completely eliminates the manual lifting of heavy steel tubes and solar panels – an industry first. Terabase Energy says that its robot achieved labor productivity improvements of 25% compared with manual installation, and the setup improves working conditions…
The situation at the Volkswagen Group’s largest electric car factory in Zwickau, Germany appears to be worsening. After numerous reports of demand issues earlier this year, Volkswagen cancelled the third shift on production line number 1, which is responsible for the Volkswagen ID.3 and Cupra Born models. The move was already expected at least since September (in October, there was a two-week halt of production) because there are not enough customers for the MEB-based hatchbacks in Europe. Previously, Volkswagen announced the end of Volkswagen ID.3 production at the Transparent Factory in Dresden, Germany (a relatively low volume, secondary production site). This comes…
Hailing from Berlin, Germany, Benno Bikes is best known for its impressive selection of urban-focused cargo bikes. Electric cargo bikes are considered by many as the next big thing when it comes to urban mobility. Boasting the ability to ride on cycling paths, electric cargo bikes are both compact and versatile, so much so that some people are actually using them as replacements for their cars on a daily basis. This trend is especially prevalent in Europe and Asia, where tightly knit cities serve as the perfect playground for e-bikers. Indeed, we’re seeing more and more new cargo e-bike options…
General Motors has announced that it has absorbed BrightDrop, its electric commercial vehicle subsidiary that had been its wholly owned subsidiary since January 2021. Born from GM’s Innovation Lab, BrightDrop has acted as a tech startup within General Motors and had operational freedom over the past three years, but starting November 16 it is being integrated “even tighter” into the parent company. “Starting today, BrightDrop will become part of GM. We believe that this move will benefit our fleet customers by providing them with an efficient single point of contact through GM Envolve,” the automaker said in a press release…
Starting next year, and depending on where you live, you’ll be able to add a Hyundai Ioniq 5 to your usual cart full of home gadgets, books and watches on Amazon. And Hyundai Motor America CEO Randy Parker said the automaker has about 150 million reasons to give this plan a shot. “They’ve got about 150 million Amazon Prime customers, right?”, Parker said in an interview with InsideEVs at the Los Angeles Auto Show on Thursday. He added that many millions more in America alone visit the e-commerce megastore every month. “That’s a huge audience to tap into. And so…
Toyota and battery-recycling firm Redwood Materials on Thursday announced an expansion of their previous agreement that will see Toyota source battery materials from Redwood for future battery production. Toyota announced plans to work with Redwood on recycling of battery materials in June 2022. But it’s now confirming plans to also source recycled material for battery production from Redwood, which earlier this year received a $2 billion loan from the Department of Energy to expand its operations. While the relatively small size of the current EV fleet means it isn’t much of a source for recycled material, Toyota anticipates a growing…
The most expensive Lucid Air, the Lucid Air Sapphire, will run you at least $249,000. Now, for a car with 1,234 horsepower and the mantle of being the world’s most powerful production four-door sedan, it’s probably a fair price – but certainly not for everybody’s budget. If you can live with a little less unhinged speed, a Lucid Air Pure starts at $77,400. And the new Lucid Gravity SUV that was unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show this week is expected to start under $80,000. Both Lucid models are a bit more reasonable than being out a quarter of a million dollars for…
