Here’s Why This New EV Is a Big Deal

Xiaomi may not be a household name in the US or Europe, especially when it comes to cars, but this week the company has made a huge splash in the greater EV world by launching the SU7 sedan, aiming to upstage Tesla and others in its home market. The buzz for the SU7 had been building for months, and even early on it was easy to see why: The electric sedan promised impressive power and range numbers as part of a lineup complete with a performance variant, setting its sights on Tesla. Xiaomi also has Porsche in its sights, which should be obvious enough by its exterior design, and that's despite the fact the tech giant's automotive division was launched only in 2021. Just days ago the new EV maker launched the production version of the sedan, with deliveries in the Middle Kingdom set to start this month. The sedan will be of

2024 Buick Envision Goes Big Screen and Gets Standard AWD - autoweek.com - Usa - Santa Fe

2024 Buick Envision Goes Big Screen and Gets Standard AWD

Buick continues pushing to update its portfolio with a refreshed 2024 Envision. Launching the second-generation Envision only a handful of years ago, the company is giving the crossover a series of important updates. The biggest draw for prospective ‘24 Envision buyers is a new, 30-inch standard display, surrounded by revised interior and exterior styling. Buick is also shaking up the available trim options this year. In 2023, Buick sold 44,281 Envisions in the US (up a surprising 71% from 2022), but this upscale midsize crossover lags far behind mainstream rivals such as the Chevy Equinox, Honda CR-V, Hyundai Santa Fe, Mazda CX-5, Nissan Rogue, and Toyota RAV4. As for the powertrain, Buick left

Are Robotaxis on the Way to New York City?

New York City probably isn't the first place that comes to mind when we think of «autonomous vehicle testing.» Nevertheless, it is home to the largest taxi fleet in the US and is also home to plenty of ride-hailing app drivers. As such, it was perhaps inevitable that we would eventually see some interest from robotaxi developers, even though most of the efforts have been seen in AV-friendly states and cities on the West Coast. New York City has now introduced what it calls «a rigorous permitting program» for autonomous vehicle developers wishing to test driving tech of various SAE levels in the city. But the program will still require a trained safety driver to be behind the wheel at all times. And applicant companies will also need to submit detailed testing and safety plans,

Good News for Buyers—Bad News for Borrowers

Save for Toyota, Honda, and Lexus, new vehicle supply in the US is just about up to pre-pandemic levels, and average transaction prices are down 5% from their pandemic peak, to $47,244 in February. This spring could finally be a good time to shop for a new vehicle. But that’s if you can deal with the car loan’s interest rates, or pay cash. “In 2024, we officially bid farewell to the seller’s market,” says a key takeaway from Cox Automotive’s first-quarter 2024 Industry Insights and Sales Forecast. Cox analysts forecast the US will buy 15.7 million new vehicles in calendar year 2024, up only slightly from the 15.5 million sold in CY23. About half of this year’s sales increase will come from fleet, to an estimated 2.9 million, leaving 1

Luc Donckerwolke - Genesis’ Magma Models Are about Looks as Much as Performance - autoweek.com - Usa - North Korea - New York

Genesis’ Magma Models Are about Looks as Much as Performance

To say Genesis has been flirting with performance for eight years now would be to betray the budding relationship that already exists inside the Korean luxury brand. Sure, the brand is largely focused on providing a lush sensory experience for its customers, but the mechanics that lie underneath aren't tuned simply for smoothness. Take the 2024 Genesis G70 we tested on track at the Apex Motor Club. Its target audience likely hugs the middle lane for most highway jaunts, but the prevalence of torquey-turbocharged low-end makes the compact sedan a spirited partner. Rear-drive variants also seem to rotate around their rear axis with a degree of eagerness, for what that is worth. But creating an ethos of performance is about more than EV boost buttons and middling horsepower numbers. In fact, qualifying performance is most

2025 Toyota 4Runner Teased on Social Media

On the heels of the new Tacoma, Tundra, and upcoming Land Cruiser’s revival, it’s not exactly been a secret that Toyota was cooking up a next-generation 4Runner. Well, Toyota showed off the sixth-generation 4Runner on its Instagram page and revealed a revised badging convention. Other than the rear bumper, hatch, and name, Toyota didn’t reveal anything about the 4Runner. But if you have been following Toyota’s body-on-frame products over the past few years, you have an idea of what to expect from the next 4Runner. Considering there is on

Greenlane Plans EV Truck Charging Corridor Here

By now there are several cross-country route options for EVs stretching from east to west, making the trip far easier than just a few years ago. But the same is not true for electric cargo trucks, which have started arriving on the market in the past few years. We've certainly seen EV truck charging stations appear in some ports, including the port of Long Beach, but EV infrastructure exclusively for trucks doesn't quite allow companies to wander too far from their depots or from the ports. That's bound to change in the coming years, with Greenlane revealing plans for a charging corridor from Los Angeles to Las Vegas that will be equipped with mo
