Super short this week as Andrew was plagued by microphone issues. As a result, there are many more stories here in the notes than were covered in the show.

FOLLOW UP: VW SETTLE UK CONSUMER LITIGATION

Volkswagen has agreed to pay UK consumers £193 million in compensation for fitting defeat devices to their diesel cars. Around 70,000 people will benefit from this payment. To read more, click here for the Automotive Management article.

FOLLOW UP: STELLANTIS REACH PLEA DEAL OVER EMISSIONS PROBE

Stellantis, via their FCA unit, has reached a plea deal with the US Justice Department over a probe into emissions from their vehicles. FCA has pleaded guilty and will pay in the region of $300 million. Three FCA employees are also to be charged. More on this story can be found by clicking this Reuters link here.

JLR LOOKING ABROAD FOR EV PRODUCTION

JLR is in talks over building EV models abroad in Slovakia, which is a blow to UK production. This also raises the issue that there are not enough battery plants in the UK now nor, as some fear, probably in the future, so other manufacturers will look aboard too. To read more, click the Bloomberg link here.

AUTOCAR AND WHATCAR? GET AUTOTRADER ADS

Autotrader will power the used car adverts on Autocar and WhatCar? sites, in a deal announced last Tuesday. Autotrader will now get access to more consumers and Autocar will be able to show readers possible options for the cars they are researching at that moment. You can read more on this by clicking here for the Autocar link.

WASHINGTON TO CHARGE CARS ON WEIGHT

In the first move, of what could be a new way for cities to control the vehicles on their roads, Washington DC is to charge an extra levy on vehicles over 6000lbs (2722 kgs) of $500 per year. There is an extra 1000lb waiver for EVs, apparently to prevent discouragement of adoption. For more, click the Green Car Reports article link here.

REE TO BUILD EUROPEAN EV VANS IN MIDLANDS

The Israeli start up REE is using its base in Warwickshire to build EU electric vehicle units, for commercial, buses and recreational vehicles. The aim is to produce 10,000 vehicles, which equates to 40,000 units as their system is a moor at each wheel. To learn more about their plans, click this MoveElectric article link.

BAC AND VIRITECH HYDROGEN FEASIBILITY STUDY

BAC and Viritech are undertaking a feasibility study of a hydrogen powertrain for sports cars. They are establishing if it is possible to make a Mono with this alternative power source. One of the problems they need to overcome is the potential for extra weight, if it were an electric battery powered car. Viritech are working on lightweight fuel cell drivetrains. More can be found out by clicking this article from BAC.

FIAT AXING ALL NON ELECTRIFIED MODELS FROM JULY

Fiat has announced that it will no longer sell any non electrified vehicles, in the UK, from July. Now that the Tipo and 500X have hybrid versions, Fiat can stop selling ICE only models. To read about this, click the Autocar link here.

PUBLIC ULTRA-RAPID CHARGERS COSTS RISE

The cost to use a public ultra-rapid charging station has increased dramatically, over the last eight months. The 50% rise is still less than petrol price rise over the same time period, which stands at 88%. For more about this, click here for the Autocar link.

JLR RELAUNCHES ONLINE BUYING SERVICES

JaguarLandRover has relaunched their online buying, subscription and hiring services. Called “Own. Subscribe. Rent.” they have simplified their previous offering, making it easier and quicker for a potential customer to get to the point of actually parting with their cash. You can find out more, by clicking the Automotive Management article link here. ——————————————————————————-
