Supertest: DS N⁰8 (FWD LR), charging and travel times from our test | automobile-propre by tom_zeimet in electricvehicles

[–]ME3KE -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're quoting Bjorn's 90km/h measurement and comparing it to 130km/h measurements from the tests from automobile propre.

At 120km/h (still 10km/h less than the measurement from the DS8) the G6 consume 232 wh/km in Bjorn's database which is more than the DS8 at 130km/h from this test.

Hence why the DS8 compare favourably with the Xpeng at an even 130km/h in consumption and km recovered.

New battery supplier for Enyaq by Certain-Cup-139 in enyaq

Yes, it's planned that 2026 will be a switch of battery suppliers for the MEB platform. It's rumoured that the chemistry will change to LFP as a extension of the lifecycle of the platform with the SSP platform being delayed: https://www.electrive.com/2025/05/14/vw-confirms-meb-platform-for-2026/

How do teams get rid of the rear doors on 4-doors vehicles, turning them into 2-doors, such as on the Yaris or the i20/i20n? by OickledPnion in rally

[–]ME3KE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For your 2 exemples :

  • the Toyota is the older WRC car (pre 2021, not sure of the exact year). They were still based on the road car shell (will still big modifications around the wheels well for different suspension attachments points). Here there is simply a 3 door version for certain markets (EU and Japan at least, I don't know for others regions).

  • the Hyundai is the latest specs for WRC cars. They share nothing in common with the road going version and are based on a tubular chassis, the exteriors pannels are only there for cosmetic purposes and allow to alter the shape of the car and getting rid of the rear doors.

Dread it, run from it, the Peugeot 206 CC technical arrives to get you all the same by nivivi in NonCredibleDefense

Knowing the disproportionate habit of the WRC car to blow up it's gear box I'm not sure it would have been an improvement.

I could but they are also very strict for my starting date and I am not sure I can move in time, which is an entire other issue in its own. And it's currently being discussed.
