BYD responds to the best-selling car in the world

Image
The  BYD Seal U  is a   direct alternative to the Tesla Model Y , so we could be talking about BYD’s most important launch so far. More than anything, the Model Y was crowned  the best-selling car in the world  in 2023, the first electric car to achieve this. And this time they have decided to go for a  lower price , because the BYD Seal U arrives in Spain  at 35,290 euros  and the Tesla Model Y starts at 35,990 euros, both with the help of the MOVES III Plan. It is a small difference, but this time the BYD model is a cheaper option and there are important differences between its features. The  BYD Seal U  began marketing in Spain in February 2024 and is an SUV model  4.78 meters  long and 1.66 meters wide that also has a 2.76-meter wheelbase. Due to its dimensions, it fits between the BYD Atto 3 and the BYD Tango, which were already available previously and compete within the  D SUV segment . There, as you already know, the  Tesla Model Y  is the protagonist, but there are other opti

Tesla Model 3 Performance will start production in March

After launching the new version of the Model 3, Tesla had an ace up its sleeve.  The Performance version . A sporty variant that will need more than half a year to reach the market, a time in which the North American manufacturer has taken the opportunity to finally provide it with elements that differentiate it from the other versions. Although the first units of the Model 3 Performance have already left the California production line,  it will not be until March when mass manufacturing begins , and in addition to the American plant, the Model 3 Performance will also arrive from China. Chinese media are precisely revealing internal information from Tesla, which indicates that the new Performance will have new features that will make it a much more interesting alternative. It is indicated that it will have elements such as  a logo on the rear , which is quite similar to the Model S/X Plaid logo. An explosion pattern can be understood as a scene where the car accelerates rapidly. Am

Toyota solid-state batteries offer 1,200 km range and charge in 10 minutes

Toyota has a plan, and it is none other than to catch up with – and even surpass – Tesla in terms of electric car production and technology at the beginning of the next decade. This, at first glance, may sound strange, since  Elon Musk ‘s firm is far ahead of the Japanese company in this area. However, the secret for Toyota could lie in  solid electrolyte battery technology , intended to solve the handicaps of electric cars: price, range, and waiting times for recharging. However, although its promises are many, there would still be a few years left before its final arrival on the mass market. Specifically, it is expected that this will not happen until around 2028. But what will be the specific specifications that the electric cars of the  future  will present? A  roadmap published  by the brand itself has already revealed a good part of these secrets, although the company still has doubts about the dates. Goodbye to ‘range anxiety’ in future electric Toyotas Solid-state battery te

Sony’s electric car can be driven with the PlayStation 5 controller

Although it will have powerful autonomous driving capabilities, the AFEELA has entered the CES Las Vegas 2024 stage with a style more similar to a video game. Autonomous driving has been on everyone’s lips in recent years, but Sony Honda Mobility has (again) presented its  extremely advanced electric car  in another, no less symbolic way: controlling the vehicle with a Play Station 5 controller. Cars are changing from a means of transportation with certain technology to a technological product that is used for transportation. Hence many new models and technologies are presented at shows like  CES Las Vegas . Where once it was rare to see, it is now common. We already knew the car resulting from the union between Sony and Honda: it is called  AFEELA  and now it has been presented again, this time to give more details about its technology and with a design that is very close to the production version.
