Ioniq 6 beats Mannequin 3, Toyota EV place, GM battery flexibility: In the present day’s Automotive Information

Toyota’s change on the high seemingly doesn’t change its place on EVs. GM says it’s versatile on battery format; learn into that what you’ll. And the Hyundai Ioniq 6 pushes effectivity and vary to new heights. This and extra, right here at Inexperienced Automotive Reviews.

The Hyundai Ioniq 6 beats the Tesla Mannequin 3 in vary and effectivity, with an EPA-rated 361 miles. And in rear-wheel-drive type, it ties the all-wheel-drive Lucid Air Pure for effectivity.

Though GM has constructed a robust argument across the large-format pouch cells on the core of its U.S. Ultium EV push, it’s now suggesting it’s fairly versatile with the battery format. What does this imply for GM’s three Ultium Cells crops, and the economies of scale GM claimed it will understand by preserving to at least one format as a lot as attainable?

And Toyota lately introduced a brand new CEO and gave the inexperienced gentle to its first devoted EV platform. However that doesn’t sign a larger dedication to EVs, or a concession to environmentalists which have criticized the technique. In reality, in a latest presentation at Davos, it doubled down on its technique to not commit broadly to EVs.
