People don't realize how big Hyundai is and what all they make as entire group. They have shipyards, heavy industry, construction machinery, the above motor group, engine power plants, electronics division, they are also investing into semiconductors for a while. Batteries will just be a part of a huge thing they are already running.
Go Hyundai, build those batteries 🇰🇷
Maybe they can drive down the price of their cars a bit by doing so?
I so wanted an Ioniq, but their terrible infotainment and tiny screens just ruined the brand for me
I got an Ioniq 6 and am pretty satisfied with the car. I'm fine with wired Android Auto but there are also pretty cheap adapters to convert it into wireless.
Interesting. Terrible how? Slow?
They didn’t get wireless AA/Carplay until MY24.
The infotainment overall is about as smooth as my original iPad Pro from like 6 years ago. The inbuilt maps is so slow and laggy to the touch that it’s unusable.
The screen is just overall way too small (see the screens in Ford, Tesla, GMC, and new Volvos). It’s not just for tech sake; the bigger the maps are, the easier it is to read at a glance.
LiFePo batteries have supported 10C (6 minute) charging for a long time. It's just that the battery degrades faster. Cheaper and longer life are the advantages of this chemistry. Origiinal EV/ebike chemistry has storage density advantage. SK and Japan have leadership in the latter chemistry. China in the former.
BYD says it has cut the internal resistance of its cells to allow ions to flow more freely.
Confidence in installing MW chargers must back a breakthrough, but some degradation will happen at 10C charge rate.
