Apparently the street tested this car to see if the aero stuff really holds up and that they can drive it with under 10kWh/100km highway speed. They did get 1000km.
Maybe important proof of concept for Merc?
Me too!
They also use a lot of artificial intelligence to design the parts to reduce material usage in order to save costs and weight. This is cool tech...
Just a concept car anyway. But import for Merc to see what can be done with their $100m wind channel.
I think once we see the 150kWh battery (600kg) become standard in the luxury segment, the styling swings back from air dynamic to eye pleasing... So I think even the EQS styling will not...
Certainly not my taste, but I still love it! We need fresh ideas, otherwise we all drive the same lolly cars.
Interesting is the tech inside the car. Large battery with only 1.7t weight. Super efficient long range...
You are right, the Audi pic doesn't even have door handles... :)
I also think, buy/lease now, and then have much more time to really see what is coming up in the next few years and pick the perfect EV.
How you could come to such an assessment, while purchasing the most expensive EV from a "legacy" (dumb fanboy word!) manufacturer, Porsche, as soon as it was available? Makes me speechless!
A friend has a Model X from Hong Kong. It died, battery - electronics problems. The border is closed. So...
Of course not dead...
If you look at what NIO, XPeng, Li Motors, etc push out in terms of autonomous driving, I don't think they are behind. A lot of big tech players like Huawei, XiaoMi, Tencent are in the game, next to Baidu with their excellent map data and technology.
I have seen one of...
Yes, this guy might have tested more EVs than anybody else.
Loud statements are marketing stuff. The reality of course is, that there is a big empty hole when it comes to available software developers in Germany.
The German car companies have a big advantage with their deep and very long...
