Stellantis, lista para introducir las baterías intercambiables en sus coches en 2024
El grupo automovilístico se ha asociado con Ample para integrar su tecnología modular de intercambio de baterías en 5 minutos, que se probará primero en su flota Free2move en Madrid.

El concepto de las baterías modulares y extraíbles para ser fácilmente reemplazadas por otras cargadas es una idea realmente interesante para recuperar rápidamente la autonomía de los vehículos eléctricos y que no estén fuera de servicio durante horas para cargarse. Sin embargo hasta la fecha solo lo hemos visto en ciertas scooters con sistemas modulares. Esto está a punto de cambiar también en el mundo de los coches eléctricos porque Stellantis está lista para comenzar a implementarlo el próximo año 2024 en sus coches tras haber firmado un acuedo vinculante con la compañía Ample, especializada en el intercambio de baterías en vehículos eléctricos gracias a su tecnología modular (Modular Battery Swapping) que muy pronto comenzará a usarse en algunos modelos del gigante automovilístico, y además comenzará a hacerlo precisamente en España.

Estreno primero en Madrid con Free2move

Hace años trabajé con carretillas eléctricas que usaban este sistema y desde entonces me parece que es el futuro del coche eléctrico. Una gasolinera no será más que un almacén de baterías cargadas.

Yo eso no lo veo ni de coña. No hemos visto ni cargadores de móvil, ni transformadores/fuentes de alimentación compatibles como para ver baterías compatibles entre todas las marcas y modelos.
Puede funcionar para las flotas pero no para el vehículo privado.

Más información sobre el tema. En China ya funciona.
Lo bueno para el usuario es que se desentiende de la parte más débil del coche eléctrico

A falta de verlo en directo y percibir la calidad, he visto las pruebas y parece que le da sopas con catapulta a los europeos (salvando a los EQ de Mercedes). Y encima lo han hecho bonito (para mí gusto) y con un CX brutal, nada de ladrillos antiestéticos.

Vaya sacada de miembro viril de los chinos, y la industria europea mirando a la luna e intentando frenar con aranceles no que pueden ganar en el mercado.

Luego vendrán los lamentos cuando los chinos tengan más datos de la población europea que la propia UE.. o el día que decidan desconectar la mitad de nuestro parque móvil tocando un botón (lo llamarán "error de software").

First EV With Lithium-Free Sodium Battery Hits the Road In January
Posted by BeauHD on Friday December 29, 2023 @08:25PM from the what-to-expect dept.

Deliveries of the world's first mass-produced electric vehicle equipped with a sodium-ion battery will begin in January 2024. According to CarNewsChina, they're being produced by JAC Motors, a Volkswagen-backed Chinese automaker, through its new Yiwei EV brand. From the report:

The Yiwei EV hatchback will have a cylindrical sodium-ion pack from Beijing-based HiNa Battery and adopt JAC's UE (Unitized Encapsulation) module technology. UE is also known as a honeycomb design because of its appearance. It is another battery structure concept like CATL's CTP (cell-to-pack) or BYD's Blade battery. Yiwei is a new EV brand under Anhui Jianghuai Automobile (JAC), established in 2023. JAC's parent company, Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group Holdings (JAG), is 50% state-owned, and 50% belongs to Volkswagen Group. The German automotive giant acquired its stake in 2020 in an unprecedented move to invest in China's state-owned car maker.

[...] In February 2023, JAC announced they were the first automaker to put the lithium-free sodium-ion battery on an electric vehicle. That EV was a Sehol E10X hatchback, and the Na+ battery had the following specifications: 25 kWh capacity, 120 Wh/kg energy density (single cell 140 Wh/kg), 3C to 4C charging (10% - 80% in 20 minutes), 252 km (157 miles) range for E10X, and HiNa NaCR32140 cell. Sehol was a brand under Volkswagen Anhui JV, which VW transferred to JAC in 2021. When the Yiwei brand was launched in May 2023, JAC announced that it would ditch the Sehol brand, and all vehicles are being rebadged to JAC or Yiwei. The pictures JAC released today tell us that the new sodium-ion-powered EV is the Sehol E10X. JAC hasn't yet confirmed the name of the new car under the Yiwei brand; it could be Yiwei E10X, but we have to wait for JAC's confirmation.

JAC recently pushed a lot into sodium-ion batteries R&D. During the Shanghai Auto Show in April 2023, the company showcased its first car under the Yiwei brand called Yiwei 3, which was equipped with a sodium-ion battery. However, the EV launched later in June, only with a classic LFP lithium battery, and promised the Na+ variant would come later. The Yiwei 3 is a compact hatchback that competes with Wuling Bingo, BYD Seagull, or ORA Funky Cat. It has two power train options, both front-wheel drive: 70 kW and 100 kW motor. The maximum cruising range is 505 km CLTC with a 51.5 kWh battery.

More than a Third of America's EVs Were Bought Within the Last 12 Months
Posted by EditorDavid on Saturday January 06, 2024 @12:34PM from the sing-the-bodies-electric dept.

More than 4 million electric vehicles are now on America's roads. And Friday the U.S. Energy announced that more than a third of them (1.4 million) were sold within the last year.

That's 50% more than were sold in the previous year — and about the same number sold in the entire five years between 2016 and 2021. But the energy secretary's statement also touts the current administrations efforts at "building out a reliable and interoperable nationwide EV charging network — an undertaking never before seen in the United States."

Today, the U.S. has close to 170,000 public EV chargers — a 75% increase since the president took office with nearly 900 new chargers coming online per week.

These developments are part of an inevitable shift toward a thriving electric transportation sector — a shift that American automakers and battery manufacturers are already carrying forward.

Tesla Extends Lead in Norway Sales, EVs Take 82% Market Share
Posted by msmash on Tuesday January 02, 2024 @09:00AM from the moving-forward dept.

Tesla topped Norway's car sales for a third straight year in 2023, extending its lead over rivals despite an ongoing conflict between the U.S. electric vehicle maker and the Nordic region's powerful labour unions. From a report:

Almost five out of six new cars sold in Norway last year were powered by battery only, with Tesla's share of the overall market rising to 20.0% from 12.2%, registration data showed on Tuesday. Electric vehicles accounted for 82.4% of new vehicles sold in 2023, up from 79.3% in 2022, the Norwegian Road Federation (OFV) said. Seeking to become the first nation to end the sale of petrol and diesel cars by 2025, oil-producing Norway exempts fully electric vehicles from many taxes imposed on internal combustion engine rivals, although some levies were introduced in 2023.

Hertz is Selling 20,000 Electric Vehicles To Buy Gasoline Cars Instead
Posted by msmash on Thursday January 11, 2024 @03:42PM from the how-about-that dept.

quonset writes:

Hertz rental has announced it's selling off one third of its 20,000 electric vehicle fleet and replacing them with gas powered vehicles. The reason? It's costing them too much to repair damaged EVs and their depreciation is hurting the bottom line.

"[C]ollision and damage repairs on an EV can often run about twice that associated with a comparable combustion engine vehicle," Hertz CEO Stephen Scherr said in a recent analyst call. And EV price declines in the new car market have pushed down the resale value of Hertz's used EV rental cars.

White House Unveils $623 Million In Funding To Boost EV Charging Points
Posted by BeauHD on Friday January 12, 2024 @08:00AM from the more-the-merrier dept.

An anonymous reader quotes a report from The Guardian:

Joe Biden's administration has unveiled $623 million in funding to boost the number of electric vehicle charging points in the U.S., amid concerns that the transition to zero-carbon transportation isn't keeping pace with goals to tackle the climate crisis. The funding will be distributed in grants for dozens of programs across 22 states, such as EV chargers for apartment blocks in New Jersey, rapid chargers in Oregon and hydrogen fuel chargers for freight trucks in Texas. In all, it's expected the money, drawn from the bipartisan infrastructure law, will add 7,500 chargers to the US total.

There are about 170,000 electric vehicle chargers in the U.S., a huge leap from a network that was barely visible prior to Biden taking office, and the White House has set a goal for 500,000 chargers to help support the shift away from gasoline and diesel cars. "The U.S. is taking the lead globally on electric vehicles," said Ali Zaidi, a climate adviser to Biden who said the US is on a trajectory to "meet and exceed" the administration's charger goal. "We will continue to see this buildout over the coming years and decades until we've achieved a fully net zero transportation sector," he added.

On Thursday, the House approved legislation to undo a Biden administration rule meant to facilitate the proliferation of EV charging stations. "S. J. Res. 38 from Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), would scrap a Federal Highway Administration waiver from domestic sourcing requirements for EV chargers funded by the 2021 bipartisan infrastructure law. It already passed the Senate 50-48," reports Politico.

"A waiver undercuts domestic investments and risks empowering foreign nations," said Rep. Sam Graves (R-Mo.), chair of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, during House debate Thursday. "If the administration is going to continue to push for a massive transition to EVs, it should ensure and comply with Buy America requirements." The White House promised to veto it and said it would backfire, saying it was so poorly worded it would actually result in fewer new American-made charging stations.
